  1. He is 84 years old, and has killed 3 deer this season.  If it makes him happy, then who cares.   BTW, he stays in the woods 3-4 days at a time. Can't hunt post sundown.
  2. All,   My dad wants a ~15" 12 volt DC powered portable TV to put in his 4x4 hunting van. (it would NOT permanently mount in console, etc). Budget $100 - $150    Any suggestions?   Thanks,   Bert   (there are numerous models on Amazon, too many in fact.  Looking for good brand, etc.)
  3. Those are common field mice. You need another cat.
  4. I had a pair of skunks put over 100 holes in my back yard one night.  I saw them rooting, but did not realize they were taking divots out.  Often is funnel shaped.   But, the "soft ground" is probably moles as others have said.
  5. Skunk
  6. I have traveled to S. Africa 21 times, and spent weeks in their hell-holes.   I can't imagine going to the even more dangerous African countries.
  7.   It seems to predate the wave of immigrants, but was intertwined with Syria. Basically, well-connected local boy goes off and joins the war in ME to return home as a regional leader -  http://www.wsj.com/articles/alleged-mastermind-of-paris-attacks-was-emir-of-war-in-syria-1447907485
  8. Pretty soon mine will tell me to get a .308
  9. I certainly emphasize with you.  I have cataracts, glaucoma, and dry-eye syndrome in both eyes, along with detached-retina / optical nerve damage in one of them.  I am scheduled to start with lens-replacement in a few weeks. It will help with vision, but not the constant "rip-my-eyeball-out" feeling.     Now that I whined, here are the monitors that I use (four of them) - http://www.ebay.com/itm/K0Q34A8-HP-V241P-LED-monitor-23-6-1920-x-1080-8ms-250-cd-m2-Factory-Sealed-/331651269028?hash=item4d37f4c1a4:g:wPcAAOSwgNRV8ZJC   Hopefully they are within your budget.   They are very good for the price, includes shipping.   Bert
  10. Ruger Super Red Hawk .44 Mag.....if I get to go this year.....
  11. That's one variant.  I was thinking of the out-of-control miner's cart plunging straight to Hades.  Probably from some movie or Bugs Bunny cartoon I saw as a kid.   
  12. It didn't matter.  From his perspective, we were all in the same hand-cart. and solidly.
  13. basically a latter-day Essene.    For a moment or two, I thought I recognized him.
  14. I will say, this group definitely has a contingent of critical thinkers who are among the best.  The dynamics and facets of perspective/perception are awesome.    I can envision this group doing their thing on Mars Hill of old.  
  15. Sounds like he is an (modern version) Essene.
  16. Ah.  It's all okey-dokey now.             http://www.foxcarolina.com/story/30522357/isis-unable-to-attack-us-officials-say
  17.       demonstrating the absurdity of those claiming these actions are not of Islam, by using absurdity. Obviously the IS is Islam and back up their claim with blood and Koran.
  18. ISIS repudiates claims of Islamic ties - http://www.allenbwest.com/2015/11/isis-issues-official-statement-on-paris-attacks-and-next-plans/
  19. and.....    In my own hometown... - right here, right now.     http://www.knoxnews.com/news/watchful-eye/court-records-employee-kept-wife-virtual-prisoner-under-sharia-law_14655623  
  20. http://www.avclub.com/article/slowed-down-chipmunks-are-both-brilliant-and-terri-227794     If you grew up with Alvin, these songs are hilarious adjusted for normal voice.
  21. I set my clock back to April. It's warmer, longer.
  22. Auditors actually griped about snacks.   Working at ORNL for years, I assure you that the snacks for visitors are not that good. In fact, many times, I supplemented out of my own pocket in embarrassment.   Maybe managers & auditors get the good stuff.   http://knoxblogs.com/atomiccity/2015/10/29/snacks-bioenergy-science-center-passes-audit-but/#more-36265
  23. c'mon guys.  Give them a break.  At least their reloading manual has a red cover.
