  1. [quote name='jcoosi' timestamp='1352907480' post='845455'] "Hold my beer and yall watch this!" [/quote] Fixed it for you.
  2. [quote name='SWJewellTN' timestamp='1352911348' post='845500'] I'm kind of shocked at Alaska! [/quote] This might explain it some [quote] Alaska’s big problem is fiscal policy. Over a quarter of the state’s workforce is employed by state or local government, and that figure does not include federal employees. Alaska has the highest debt and government spending to personal income ratios in the country. [/quote]
  3. [quote name='thundersnow' timestamp='1352909899' post='845477'] [url="http://www.permies.com/forums/c/5/"]http://www.permies.com/forums/c/5/[/url] They have lots of info on permaculture and hugelkulture here. This will greatly increase your chances for a successful garden if watering were to become a little more difficult. I am in the process of building raised beds to allow them time to fix the nitrogen cycle by the spring season. [/quote] That is what I have a raised bed. Planning to get an addition too it soon.
  4. In the past Norris was 40 for the first person, then 20 for wife. That is how it was for me. I did not renew this year so if July 2012 changed then I am out of the loop.
  5. That is not your grandpa's John Deer.
  6. Yea, I don't buy this at all. There is something very fishy going on here.
  7. Think about it, if a person can't grow them now and produce a reasonable amount, they would have less success when push comes to shove. I don't expect to be rolling in supply food with a small 8x8 garden but I expect to have some nice meals out of it.
  8. I also meant to include, people should try their hand at medicinal herbs as well.

  10. 120 is, you, your wife, kids under 18. My wife and I joined this year and enjoy it. I was a member of Norris for the past couple years, but ORSA is closer for me and I feel I get more out of it. More range options. Also always people around. I have been up at Norris alone and found myself looking over my shoulder too much. Especially after strange cars on the road below pull up, stop, turn around and run the road back and forth.
  11. Just wondering, how many people here have planted heirloom seeds, even if in a small garden and during harvest recovered enough seeds for the following year? I know allot of people are storing these heirloom seeds as part of their survival plan, but does everyone feel confident they would be able to produce a garden with them. Also for those that have never had gardens, keep in mind that the seeds are not magic, they take time to grow before they produce. Also during a survival situation any fertilizer is going to be a luxury item. I know this is the wrong time of year but Next spring, I plan to plant a herb and vegetable garden from heirloom seeds. I think other people that have a place should consider doing the same just for practice. I mean it has been since I was a kid I really worked in a garden and back then gardens where fields. Now I only have a small place in my backyard, that I plan to expand over the winter to have ready for spring. I am going to see how efficient I can get my small garden space, trying to plant things that work well together(yea I am sure that will work great for me.) Currently my garden is it only 4x8. I can probably make it 8x8 by spring. I would almost say we should make this a challenge for people to see how many different kinds of herbs and vegetables they can grow.
  12. [quote name='BrettB' timestamp='1352774133' post='844625'] Alrighty, we can have a zombie section, but we cant have a foreign invasion section because that would never happen.... Okay. LOL. [/quote] Go to Zombie thread. Substitute zombie for any foreign invasion force and you have ready made scenarios.
  13. That game is rigged. I believe they are all guilty of something. You've correctly matched 4 perps in 20 lineups (20%) Current Streak: 2 | Best Streak: 2
  14. [quote name='OhShoot' timestamp='1352767527' post='844560'] Police chief did throw out the ticket, and did apologize to her, according to this: [url="http://www.kctv5.com/story/20018867/mom-gets-2500-ticket-after-son-3-urinates-in-own-yard"]http://www.kctv5.com...tes-in-own-yard[/url] - OS [/quote] Cool deal, and note that is dated after the original on [i]Posted: Nov 06, 2012 2:54 PM EST [/i] [i]Updated: Nov 07, 2012 6:57 PM EST[/i]
  15. [quote name='DaveTN' timestamp='1352765589' post='844537'] The woman lied. She said the Police Department refused to take her complaint; that is an outright lie. Investigators took a complaint and interviewed both her and her daughter. The Chief of Police stopped by her house, apologized to her and told her the charges were dropped and he opened an investigation into the incident. What more could anyone possibly ask for? Will they fire the cop? Of course they won’t; it doesn’t rise nearly to that level. But he may you more discretion next time. [/quote] Where did you get that info? Maybe it happened after this news broke as that page was updated on [i]Updated: Nov 06, 2012 12:22 PM EST . [/i]
  16. Yup, this is an old scam over paying and asking for a refund before the check clears.
  17. Hell, in this day and age, I am surprised the 3 year old is not being charged as a sex offender for displaying himself in public. Guess he he gave them a break.
  18. [quote name='TMF' timestamp='1352674450' post='843940'] Solar chargers work okay for camping if you dont have access to a vehicle to charge your phone. Yeah, it might not be sunny everyday, but the sun will come out eventually. [/quote] I do have a small solar charger. It is for a blackberry 1500ma battery included so It can charge the battery while the phone is not even connected. One suggested idea it to have it on your backpack out in the sun charging while you hike. However it does say it may take 2 days to charge. I only got it for a backup battery for my droid x back in the day so I would have extra, easy battery power with out having to change the battery in the phone.

    Gun Stolen

    Hate to hear about it, hope it ends up in a pawn shop and gets routed back to you. Probably the only danger you would be in is if the idiot shoots himself and files a civil law suit that you didn't have a trigger lock on it. /jking Seriously we have a screwed up legal system.
  20. I would rather have something like this if I have to have USB power. Hand Crank Self-Powered Generator for Charging Cell Phones and Handheld Devices [url="http://www.amazon.com/SOS-Charger-Hand-Crank-Emergency-Flashlight/dp/B002WRKZZ4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1352651389&sr=8-2&keywords=hand+crank+battery+charger"]http://www.amazon.co...battery charger[/url] Cheaper and duel purpose. It also appears to be smaller, lighter. I don't have one of these but I might look into a few models and similar items.
  21. small sewing kit, needles, thread. May even fit in your first aide kit.
  22. I went with Remington 870 18 inch barrel over the Mossberg mainly for the safety placement. It is more natural to me to have the safety near the trigger instead of up top where I expect a hammer to be. However with either choice if you practice with the one of your choice to make sure the safety placement is not an issue, both are fine choices.
