  1. Happy 232nd Birthday, Uncle Sam!!
  2. I'll spend my money as I please, thank you.
  3. It should be - Lowe's prices are set by corporate staff.
  4. If you're a fan of the Leatherman multitool, or were waiting for the price to come down, Lowe's is closing out the Leatherman Surge. Regular price $79.99, clearance price $19.99. I bought the last two on the shelf in Athens.
  5. Bin Laden should be shot on sight, just like a rabid dog. The threat of him appearing in a U.S. courtroom should encourage any would-be captors to aim center mass and fire for effect.
  6. It all went downhill when they outlawed capital punishment in schools.
  7. There's no such thing as a High Definition antenna - it's just an antenna. PS - during the part you missed, everyone stood on the gas and turned left (Sorry)
  8. It all seems silly to me. Why don't we just stop counting posts? What purpose does it serve?
  9. i haven't tried Patron, but Herradura Reposado is top-shelf, sippin' Tequila. Ezra Brooks is a good whiskey (bourbon?) made in Missouri.
  10. Sweetwater, just west of I75 on Highway 68 (exit 60).

    Bersa .380 Question

    There's nothing wrong with a Bersa, but .380 hollowpoints don't penetrate worth a d@mn. FMJ is the ticket.

    Vonage

    I tried Vonage a couple of years ago. It was down more than it was up. I'm back to ATT now.
  13. I've filed a comment requesting one uniform law for all NP's and FWS lands.
  14. I've driven to SoCal 4 times in the last 6 years and enjoyed every trip. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I bubble-wrapped my long guns (unloaded of course) and stowed them behind the seat in my truck when I moved them from Michigan. I felt like a criminal carrying several long guns in a vehicle, but I couldn't think of a safer way to transport them. Of course that was a 1-day trip. A 3-4 day trip with motel stays adds more difficulty. I think I'd still bury them out of sight in the vehicle, park under the lights and hope for the best. By the way, welcome!
  15. Ditto! Also, I carry Remington Express FMJ, not range ammo. I've had range ammo come apart in my pocket - bullet, case, pile of powder.
  16. You're a little fuzzy dog???
  17. The best thing to do with the powder is dump it on your lawn - it's a good fertilizer. Oil will only temporarily disable a primer. Only firing the primer will disable it permanently.
  18. They took care of this problem in Michigan a few years ago. After shall-issue was passed, several cities started posting all city offices and parks. The legislature responded with an amendment to the pre-emption law that retroactively prohibited the posting of public property that wasn't already covered by another statute (such as post offices, court rooms and schools). Once we get rid of Naifeh we can try to get some reasonable laws passed in Tennessee too.
  19. Oops - double tap.
  20. Knoxville's the same way. Now that I'm retired, I drive everywhere I go. I'd take off and drive to Amarillo at the drop of a hat, and I'd drop the hat.
  21. Horsehide is also stiffer than cowhide, and seems to retain it's stiffness and shape better.
  22. There are many aspects to amateur radio. A couple of the most important ones are that radio works in emergencies when the phone system, including cell phones, are down. Also, you can, literally, talk to any place in the world, as long as the propagation gods allow and there's someone there on the amateur bands. I have confirmed contacts with all 50 states and over 100 foreign countries. I've never used more than 100 watts of power, and have worked France while mobile with 12 watts on a converted CB (that I built!). Some hams get into building their own gear, some are big in emergency communications, some like to chase DX, some like to use the amateur satellites or do moonbounce. Some just like to gab. When you have the time, drift over to www. arrl. org and look around for a while. Licenses no longer require morse code knowledge, study materials are readily available and you usually can take the test at your local ham club.
  23. I own 2 IWB#3's, in both horsehide and cowhide. They're both fine holsters, but I prefer the horsehide one.
  24. I monitor 145.310 in Athens and 7.258 (Midcars). Welcome to the hobby!
  25. Public parks are probably off-limits, for some reason I can't fathom. Also included are courtrooms, school grounds (with several exceptions), places that sell alcohol or beer for on-site consumption, places properly posted, most federal properties, places 'inhabited' by big game, and while training bird and coon dogs. As you can see, we still have some work ahead of us. First we have to unseat the Speaker of the House.
