Took the kids out for trick or treat. :o Daddy has hisself a whole bunch of CANDY. ;D
The onliest issue I had last night was all these teen girls dressed in revealing sexy outfits. It would be one thing if this was a college party, but these girls are 14-16 yet they look like 19-21. I'm just glad I'm not single cuz I'd have to be getting 3 forms of ID and two references before I'd go on any date. Be a kid would ya. Before you know it you'll be and old fart. ::)

Mornin’, y’all.
‘Preciate ya keepin’ it down sos I could get a l’il extry sleep, Rooster.
Thinkin’ we do things as parents of girls sometimes not thinkin’ of the unintended consequences. The youngest was in dance from 4 to 18. We stuck her up on stage half nekked every year. Cute when she was a kid ‘bout the time she was 14 or so she ‘n her troop weren’t l’il girls no more.
Today, when she dresses for a casual date she HAS to show a sliver of stomach. The few dresses she has are low cut. I couldn’t believe how she dressed for school yesterday but apparently it’s acceptable because most of the schools she’s subbed for ask her to come back. Kindah thinkin’ she ain’t a good example for the kids. Maybe that’s where it comes from.
BTW, Rooster. Maj ain't a yankee. He's a Virginian we sent up that way on a mission..................

Mornin' coffee is on here. Dang it's a good thing Rita ain't all healed up, or I might have to beat her with a stick. Her sister has a home health nurse that comes in. They were telling the nurse about the night Rita passed out on me. The nurse told them with a blood pressure of 70/20 she could have died without the EMTs. I just looked at her and said "now you know why I was sho shook up when I got to the hospital." I guess she just thought I was being dramatical. ::)

Howdy, pards. New camp. Great coffee. Lookin' goood!
We have fog again this morning. It'll burn away by noon and probably be a decent day. It's already thinned out so I can see across the valley. Couldn't see the end of the driveway when I got up.

I'm here, finally. Had a bunch of running to do after the morning run, and then had to order my meds online. Took some extra time, as when they switched names at the bank, I got a new debit card and number. Had to change that stuff first. At least they let me keep my old PIN. The way these things are merging, there ain't gonna be but one or two bank names when they get finished.

BEWARE OF PAPER IN THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE
NEW WAY TO DO CAR JACKING
(NOT A JOKE)
Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating...
You walk across the parking lot,
unlock your car and get inside.
You start the engine and shift into Reverse.
When you look into the rearview mirror
to back out of your parking space,
you notice a piece of paper
stuck to the middle of the rear window.
So, you shift into Park, unlock your doors, and
jump out of your car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing your view.
When you reach the back of your car,
that is when the car jackers appear out of nowhere,
jump into your car and take off.
They practically mow you down as they speed off in your car.
And guess what, ladies? I bet your purse is still in the car.
So now the car jacker has your car, your home address,
your money, and your keys.
Your home and your whole identity are now compromised!
BEWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS
NOW BEING USED....
If you see a piece of paper stuck to your back window,
just drive away.
Remove the paper later.

Very insightful! ;D ;D
Stoney, yer right about them outfits, makes ya wonder what them parents are thinking, letting their kids go out like that :o
I had a discussion with a former girlfriend (very liberal girl) about this type of thing. She said that it was the man's problem if he is attracted to her. I can see her point, but she wasn't thinking that some folks can't be turned on and ignore it. They feel they have to take!
Heck, I'm glad I can exercise restraint. If I couldn't, Rachael Ray, Giada De Laurentiis, Samantha Brown et al would have warrants out for my arrest! :o :o ;D

It's that race to see who can post first. Why I'll bet both of them wanted to stay up, but fell asleep right before midnight. ;D
Where's Dan?
I'm in classes all day today so it's hard to stay awake.
I'm the king of sleeping in class. ;D I even worked out a pose to look like I was reading and taking notes. I could even hold a pen up. If it fell, that meant that I was deeeeep alseep. That happened only a few times.
I still keep those skills honed today. I take naps at my desk during lunch just to freak out the coworkers. I just close my eyes while sitting up and my head straight up. Again, if I sleep too deeply, my head will start to bob.
Been up in the Work Dept, back to a more sane world now, no ther is no size between XL and XXL, no we can't order one either. ::)
Yes there is a mid size. It's X½XL. Geez. Don't you know anything? :D
ya just need to go to Wally world and get a XXL from China, it'll be the size in between a XL & XXL . ;D ;D
and after a wash or 2 it may be the size just under XL ;D

Yeah, they built a track at Colonial Downs with no Betting allowed...Then they wonder why no one comes. All the race horses here in Virginia it really surprized me. An hour away is Charlestown and looks like a mini Vegas at nght

Imagine there’s plenty bettin’ goin’ on there. Just ain’t above board. The commonwealth ain’t got no sense when it comes ta some things. Most money from their enterprises is the ABC stores. What does Richmond do ta save money under socialist Warner? Cut the store hours back. I’d ah had the things open 24/7/365. Wish that damned lottery was shoved up sumbody’s………..
They got slots it Dover but heck ‘nother hour or so I could be in Atlantic City. Then again after ya get ta Las Vegas ya doan wanna go ta the slums anymore.

Got back about 10:30, no more drain.
Had a project I had to finish, nephew has 50 rounds of 308 with 150 gr Barnes X bullets in them. Gave him Midways website, told him to plan ahead next time and save some money. Local full retail store charged $31.98 for the box of bullets, and there are only 50 in a box. Oh well even at that price they are worth every penny, you don't need that good 95% of the time, but that 5% can save a PIA after dark tracking, the exit on everything but a lengthwise shot and cut a hole about the size of yer thumb and causes a lot of blood to land on the ground.
-
Howdy, pards. I had some pressing stuff to get out before 12:00. Got 'er done. Now, what's this about casinos and such? We're lucky, not many in our area. The closest track is Bay Meadows in San Mateo. The closest casino is Cache Creek, north of San Francisco. Glad we don't have any closer than that. I like living in a California back-water town with only the county sheriff for law and chickens in the post office parking lot. I actually know my neighbors and we keep an eye out for each other. Of course, the same town in another state would be ideal. Well, someday, perhaps.
Gotta get the car ready to take the dogs to the races tomorrow. They run because it's what they like to do. No betting or anything. Bragging rights only but it's mighty fun. They sure love it or I wouldn't bother.
Maybe Sunday I'll get a motorcycle ride in.
I talked to my optimologist. He's giving me a sample +1.5 dia contact for my right eye to see if that will take care of the sighting issue I had at the last match. If that works, I can get a prescription for them at my next exam in a couple months.
-
Don’t know all of what bothers folks about gambling, Will. It’s a choice. I look at table games as recreation and I enjoy playing them. Blowing a hundred bucks at a craps table is no different than paying that much for a couple tickets for a play at the Wells except when one puts out the cash at the box office one knows they aren’t going to get it back.
When the lottery came into being, the convenience stores jumped into selling tickets. If one hits at the wrong place and time, stopping for a quick purchase takes as long as it does going to a supermarket. I wasn’t exaggerating all that much about some people drooling over their selections and stalling the line. Being unfortunate enough to get behind someone taking multiple punch cards to be read and bet on makes it worse. That usually occurs with office pools. I’ve left what I was going to buy on the counter and walked out more than once. I hate things in my way and I don’t suffer fools kindly. I wish we had casinos to keep it in a place I could avoid.
Lottery tickets are as low-life as slot machines. I wouldn’t be caught dead playing either.
As I said earlier, 7-11 sells the things, Wawa doesn’t. Wawa gets my business. Their employees are better trained and more polite anyway.
-
Lottery tickets are as low-life as slot machines.
Good comparison.
My mother-in-law likes slot machines. I consider them the same as flushing your money down the toilet and hoping some of it comes back. I always did good at blackjack. Never could understand how to work roulette.

T’was a bit of a chill it the range this mornin’. Didn’t need the jacket thou. Black shirt ‘n hat got too warm by mid day.
Get there ‘n the landlords stuck up a new gate. ‘Bout a dozen trucks in line, couldn’t get in. Finally found someone with a key.
Get out the truck ‘n stretch. *SPOING* Suspenders bust. Jerry-rig ‘em back up. Had my wide-waist pants on. Wouldah looked like a gang-bangah holdin’ ‘em up all day if I hadn’t.
Bad outtah practice ‘n didn’t shoot werth a crap. Didn’t take enough left o’er chicken fer lunch. Had a big ole pile of grits fer breakfast anyway.
Watched cuzzin’ Tom knock o’er a shotgun target with a pistol shot – accidently. Him ‘n me meet up it the guncarts. ‘’Course, ya know, Tom, that’ll be on the internet within’ 24 hours.’ He grinned.
Made a lot of fire, BOOM, smoke ‘n stink.
New Stuckey’s in Ivor don’t have the collards the Stuckey’s it Moyock does. That was a disappointment. But I shouldah known that would have been too easy. Guess I’ll have a Carolina run ta make ‘fore Thanksgivin’.
All in all, weren’t too shabby a day……..

For the record I would like to say that I got the same shotgun target on two different stages with the same pistol! ;D
If it was a bonus target I wouldn't have come anywhere near it! ;D ;D

we got inviited over to the neighbors this afternoon for some food and entertainment, he had cooked the whole meal out on the lawn, in cast iron pots. they had a couple of roasts, a turkey, one little pot full of sausages, pot of pork & beans, a pork loin with veggies, corn brean and some brown beans. man I filled up way too fast. sure was some good eating.
and then of course there was all kinds of pie and cobblers, that people had brought. Jackie took some potato salad,
-
Sounds like a good day was to be had by all. Glad to hear it.
-
it sure was some good eating, I took a picture of one of his cookware creations for Del, he had taken a truck, cast iron brake drum and welded on legs and a bottom, the thing weighed about 100 pounds, he had used it to cook a turkey, put a pan in the bottom with water and a little rack that the turkey sat on. then he had just cut out a lid of about a 1/4 inch steel.
never had seen a cooking contrapition like it.

Ran some errands this afternoon. Kids 4H club had a soup supper. Got home a little bit ago.

here's another shot of the cook ware
I thought about that asbesto's, I asked him how he had cleaned it, just out of curosity, said he had taken it to a radiator shop and had it boiled out, then he put water in it and boiled it dry a few times, I passed on the turkey and just stuck with the standard cast iron cookware. ;D

Howdy, pards. I'm back. the day started out at 41° when we rolled into Elk Grove and ended up in the low 80's. The dogs ran, the people milled around and the horses watched the proceedings with disinterest. It was a good day. We left this morning at 4:00 and just got in. What a Day. Now I'm getting caught up with the forum. You all have been busy.

I think you did the wisest thing. That thing will probably leech oils and whatnot out of it for years to come. So much easier to go buy a nice cast iron pot like one of Del's and be done with it.
Are we supposed ta turn our clocks back tonight? ???
Yeah. Our atomic clock is racing ahead 11 hours since it can't go backward. That will take a few hours to accomplish.

Wasn’t so much fallin’ asleep as it was wakin’ up early ‘n turnin’ the thing on before they started.
Even at my advanced years I don’t remember much ‘bout test patterns. The locals here went to twenty four hour broadcastin’ long ago.
Went ‘n got the rifle out the truck. Reckon I might as well get it too. The shotgun was done before I left the range.

Howdy, p0ards. Well, I got my wife's sidecar adjusted for tow-in. She says it handles better, now. That's good. The dogs are happy, we fed them goodies while sitting in the sidecar (bribes, you know). We're headed out for a few more photos of the sidecar. We'll see if we can get some good ones in San Juan Bautista at the mission. I got good ones of my trike there before. It all depends on if the main field is available or accessible.
Later, pards.

How much of the second pizza is going to make it until tomorrow? ;D

Trinity, No dust, it had rained there a couple days before and the ground was still damp. I have photos that I can "zoom"in on the"Orb" and it isn't dust. There are times when you can see the "Orbs" with the bare eye, You just have to sit quietly and watch the fields, you will see them. They tend to concentrate in the areas with the most action of the battle. They seem to appear on film the easiest.
I found a good example.. this was taken at the "Snipers Hide" on Devils Den

Boy, that sounds good. I have been ordering ham only pizzas for about ten years now. My belly doesn't like pepperoni any more. :( Every now and then I feel the need to order a Meat Lover's pizza, but have to take tons of Gaviscon or I won't sleep at night.

I'm always disappointed, I don't believe or disbelieve, but everytime I stay somewhere that is 'spossed to be haunted nothin' shows up, none on the parade ground of Ft Kearny, David McCandless do show up at rock Creek Station lookin' for Wild Bill and the soldier that came home drunk and fell into to the picket fence and hung himself at Ft. Hartsuff didn't even show up the night I spent in the barracks alone. >:(

that's a really interesting orb, it sure couldn't be mistaken for dust on the lens, or in the air, it just seems to have energy to it.
Trinity I guess I'm just lucky on eating anything, the only thing I try to avoid is sweets late at night, (sour stomach) but everything else is fair game, and I do enjoy the spicey foods. ;D

My big down falls any more are raw veggies, tried a little cabbage this week and paid big time for it and I love it with ranch dressing. Also Ice Cream with in 2-3 hours before I go to bed, that can get a bad acid reflux, I'm afraid some night rita is going to hate me for that one. :P :-X

Jonesboro (AP) - A Nettleton school district bus driver faces a misdemeanor charge after allegedly threatening to shoot several students with a machine gun.
The school district suspended 44-year-old Ervin Franklin Bowdon of Jonesboro, after police said he told students on the way to the Jonesboro Area Technical Center that he should be respected as a former Marine that could hurt them.
Students say Bowdon threatened to "shoot all of you in five seconds" with an AK-47. Officers did not find any weapons in a search of his home and school officials say no one was in danger.
The district says Bowdon has not had any crashes or other complaints filed against him in his 15 years as a bus driver there.
Police say the boys on the bus had "bullied" Bowdon in the past. Bowdon, set to appear in court Wednesday, has been ordered not to have contact with those on the bus.

Mountain Home Lawyer Shoots 'Toy' Gun in Sheriff's Office
Location: Mountain Home

Mountain Home (AP) - A Mountain Home lawyer quickly discovered that the small gun someone handed him Friday inside of the Baxter County Sheriff's Office was not a laser pointer.
A sheriff's office report shows lawyer Paul Bayless pulled the trigger of the .380 semiautomatic pistol, firing a round through a wall and into a computer monitor in the other room.
Kenton Treat, a volunteer with the department, handed Bayless the loaded gun a moment before at the lawyer's request.
No one was injured in the late morning shooting. The report shows Treat told Bayless the gun was loaded, but the lawyer pulled the trigger after mistaking its laser sight for a harmless toy.
Baxter County Sheriff John Montgomery says the incident stemmed from careless.
He says deputies had no plans to charge anyone in the shooting. Montgomery did not say why the volunteer had a loaded gun in the sheriff's office.

I could be a substitute teacher in WI. You just need a Bachelor's degree. But, I would not consider it because of the lack of respect kids have for their elders. I am not condoning Mr. Bowdon's actions but it appears he was getting fed-up with the bullying he was receiving.
My cousin went to college in MN to become a school teacher. In his first teaching position, which was about 10 years ago, the kids were so disrespectful that he has not taught since. He is a car salesman now.

We had a surprise snow on Thanksgiving in 2000. It was a heavy snow that didn't stick to anything because it was too warm, but purty anyway.
A good Knackwurst is "Knackig". It's got plenty of "Snap" in the casing. I'll be looking forward to a full report. Sadly, I can't find the good stuff here. :(

Most of the leaves here have fallen. Some of the oaks are still holding on.

The brand was "Deutsche Kücher". They were purty good. Purty much like a Brat sized natural casing hot dog from Niemuth's Steak and Chop Shop in Waupaca. ;D

You can get Frankfurters (that are actually a lot like our dawgs) packed in a can in Germany with either Regular or "Extra Knackig" casings. I always chose the Extra. ;D

Slim
do all of your oaks lose their leaves, we always have most of the oak leaves hanging on until they start to bud out next spring, that's always what I start looking for to know it's spring, usually late Feb or March.
-
they say this week into next will be the most color the leaves will have, you see several tour busses going north of Ozark on the Pig trail, senic hiway, it runs north to Eureka Springs and Branson Mo.
-
We've finally got some color around here. It's late by a couple weeks, but it's better than no color a'tall.
-
ours is a few weeks late too, it's been plenty wet and warm an extra long time, by this time most years most of the leaves have fallen.
-
99% of our trees are yellow. Some oaks hold on to the leaves till spring, our common native oaks, the Burr Oaks and the Red Oaks do, what kind of Oaks do you have down there?
-
mostly red and whiite oaks, a few pin oaks and a few scrub
they've been having a lot of problems the last few years with boers killing the red oaks.
-
The Reds stay close around here to the Missouri River around here, the majority are Burr Oaks, a few Pin Oaks around, but those are imports.
-
most of the pin oaks around here are in yards and down along the rivers, up here on the mountain, mostly red and whites, probably more whites up here,

Hey, I'm a renter... :D
Ah, there there are some good ones. Thanks. ;D

Don't wait. I started Nov. 2 1996 at my job and I was headed to Virginia for school in Jan. I was only to be here for 3 months. Last Friday was my 15th anniversary.
There's some color here, but because it was so dry late in the season, most of the leaves turned brown and fell off. At least I don't have to rake 'em.

I don't own one but I've used a few in my day. I've had to lift those BIG block up onto them. I've always thought that the hinged ones (like below) would save my back a bit of pain.

I also thought that the ones that attached to the tractor and used the tractor's hydraulics or PTO kinda made sense so ya don't have another engine to maintain.
(http://www.timberwolfcorp.com/images/product/full_image/TW-3.jpg)
It would be nice if the tractor mount ones could be at ground level so ya could just roll the logs onto it.
This place has a bunch of different splitters. http://www.timberwolfcorp.com/log_splitters/ It might give ya something ta think about.

OK, with all the splitter information fresh off we went to look, went to Atwoods, farm supply store, they had 10% off for everything if your 55 or older, so I got the 28 ton splitter with the 10.5 HP motor.
brought it home and played with it a little, man it split everything with not so much as a strain, It cut through the largest ones we had, 20 inches across, and it sure does save your back when you can stand it up. ;D
we got all the birds moved today, so I guess tomorrow we'll split wood. ;D
thanks for all the comments, made the choice a little easier.
-
That looks like the same one we had over at the farm....never had any problems with it
-
It seems like it does a good job, played with it a little and it sures operates smooth. and it sure is a lot easier than trying to bust em with a maul.

I wash my home mugs just to keep the clutter put away. My office mug is different story.

Does that mean you won't have to leave home to go to werk?

As I get older, I find that somethings are awfully sweet. I never thought it would happen, but I have actually uttered the dreaded terms that adults sometimes use :o :o "That's too sweet."
That said... I like my Tea SWEEEEET! Growing up in Texas, I never had it sweet. You ordered tea and you sweetened it at the table. It wasn't until I came here to the east coast that I was offered the option: "You wan't that sweet or unsweet, darlin'?"
Now, civilization has come to Texas. They are offering sweet tea just about everywhere now. I don't know when it started, I only noticed it for the first time last January. I usually make it out there every year or year and a half.

Ain’t nobody more southern’n ‘n me. I don’t do sweet tea. Shame ta wreck a good tea with sugar. Can’t remember a time when ya went to a restaurant here, ordered tea ‘n they didn’t ask sweetened or unsweetened. Reckon ‘southern sweet tea’ goes along with Black Powder myths. Drink my coffee black. Tea straight up.
Theys folks whut just ought ta say it straight out, ‘I’d like this with my sugar.’
Could eat my weight in blackeyes or collards.
But that's just me.

That's the way I do it, but I do add the dash of vinegar, something my folks and Grandparents did also. Grandma grew spinach, a domestic version of Lamb's Quarter, and we used some of the beets and turnips tops also. When I gardened I grew a lot of mustard greens. Almost never had any luck with collards except in the fall and only if it was a warm one like this year, I could have grown Collards this year as warm and wet as it was. In the spring it didn't seem like they grew fast enough and the weather got hot and dry and they bolted, bolted greens are nasty.

Real nice out. Fifties ‘n sunny. Sweats are perfect for it. It can stay this way from now on ‘n I’d be happy.
Got me a heavy want for a big ole pot of greens. Collards, mustard, turnip. Don’t matter it the moment.

Breaking news out of Washington state.
MANSON, Wash. — Charles and Linda Everson were driving back to their hotel when their minivan was struck by a falling object - a 600-pound cow. The Eversons were unhurt but the cow, which had fallen off a cliff, had to be euthanized.
The year-old cow fell about 200 feet from the cliff and landed on the hood of the couple's minivan, causing heavy damage.
A Chelan County fire chief, Arnold Baker, said the couple missed being killed by a matter of inches in the accident Sunday on a highway near Manson.
The Eversons, visiting the area from their home in Westland, Michigan, to celebrate their first wedding anniversary, were checked at Lake Chelan Community Hospital as a precaution.
Everson, 49, said he didn't see the cow falling and didn't know what happened until afterward.
He said he kept repeating: "I don't believe this. I don't believe this."
-
looks like they'll have to do an investigation,
did somebody push the cow, was it the other cows,
did the cow think the sceme up by hisself?
are there any know terriorist herds in the area,
questions, questions questions. ;D

Wunner if ole AK pushed it………………..

the splitter sure works easy, idle it down and you can still split all the wood yoiu want. even the big stuff (18 to 20 inches) course it ash and it splits easy anyway, but it sure is nice not to have to swing the mall. ;D

Ya gottah pic of the whole tractor. Del. If that’s a straight pipe stickin’ out that manifold I’ll bet she sounds right. Ain’t heard an unmuffled one in a long time.
Muffled ‘n with the valves set right they’s as quiet as a mouse pissin’ inta a box of cotton.

The cow was probably asleep, and was used in a case of felonious Cow Tipping, by someone.

T'was the best I could find, conversion from the 50's, company named Funk, understand they need more HP pulling stuff sometimes. factory engine on one of them is basiclly that egine, but only half of it. If I was ever where I had more money than sense, I buy an 8N Ford and find an engine and run around the corner to Speedway Motors, they have repro's of the manifolds, and heads to make one sweet, even have a new Holley that looks like and replaces a 97 Stromsberg. Probally get in less trouble with one a them than a Model a Coupe with the same engine. ;D
BTW, the later 49-53 flathead will let one of them ol' Ford toploader 4 speeds to bolt right up, have seen a few that way, might even let one a them new 5 speeds bolt right up. ;D
BTW got a friend and customer who could build the motor for me, knew DJ years ago, he drove a 50 and 51 Ford, back when I drove a 49. Love them motors also love them souped up GMC truck sixes that were used to make Hot Rod Chevy's afore the V-8.
-
had a friend back in high school, his dad had 2 stock cars, ran what they called hobby modified, back then, dirt tracks, them old Chevy 6's would scream. one was in a 33 ford coupe body and the other a 35 chevy coupe, his dad would let us drive them out on his alfalfa patch, we were 15 - 16 when he had em. it sure was fun to race a little out on the alfalfa.
-
All my daddy ever used in the modifieds were flat heads. When I was cleanin’ out I sold the manifolds ‘n heads he had stored in the rafters in the garage. It was all Offenhauser stuff.

Last time I looked speedway had both Offy and Endlebrock stuff, plus Isky cams of all sorts and Fenton headers. DJ told me a while back someone is making blocks again also, castings of alumminum. Painted no one could tell on the block, might make them run cooler also, damn that old 49 had a good heater, I remember the day we hit the record -27, Dad drug me up early and we went out and started the cars, Mom's 62 Rambler started the ol' 65 pick-up of Dad's with the 352 started and my 49 started, was blowing heat before I got the thick frost off the windows.
-
when we were 16, that winter we built a little car (if you could call it that) took a 37 chevy pickup frame, turned it upside down attached a straight front axle and bolted the rear end solid to the frame, set the motor back to a llittle over half way and bolted in seat on the very back end. used one of the hopped up chevy 6's with a 3 speed transmission, it was awful, but it sure was fun, put it in 1 gear and dump the clutch, the front end would come up about 3 feet and give ya the ride of your life, shift to 2nd up it'd come again, we eventually bolted in a school bus seat so we could get our girlfriends in their with us. scare theri pants off :o all the girls wanted ya to ask em out to ride in it. ;D the pickup we used to push start it with could go about 110 the little car would just run off and leave it.
finally the district attorney of Wagoner county called our high school and told the principal that we needed to be over to his office at a certain time, he told us in no uncertain terms that if he heard of us out on that hiway in that contrapiton again, he would send the deputy after us and lock us up and throw away the key, course we believed him, (we was only 16) ;D
needless to say when our parents heard about that, the car was taken apart pretty quick. I've thought a thousand times, it a wonder we didn't all get killed
-
When I was showin’ the ‘Bird I was takin’ Hemmings. They had ads in there for anything ya could want to build a flat head from the ground up.
Some of those ole boys in the club were walkin’ encyclopedias on the things. They loved ‘em. The ole man did. Used to cuss the Y-Blocks ‘n wonder why Ford thought they needed anythin’ else. I learned to keep my mouth shut.

OT, I think I got a picture of our beast we used at the farm before the 4 wheelers. Bought a 66 Beetle for $50, cause the guy thought the rod was goin' out and was junky and not worth an engine. My mechanic friend listened to it and said it was a cam thrust bearing and would last for quite a while for farm use, , bout 12 years in fact and the moter still run, but the floor pan was saggin' to bad to drive. Cut the top off and welded up a cage, to keep the pan from saggin with out the top, fact is about that held it up at the end was the pipes. took off the doors of course and the back seat.
Used it for weed cuttin' could haul a lot of thistles in the back. Master cylinder went out, didn't need it, had a hand brake, deck lid and hood fell off, still use the deck lid to cover the fire ring when we go to bed or leave. Shocks rusted off, had to put plywood in the back to keep junk in. Burned oil a lot, but heck, good way to get rid of the oil changes from other stuff. all four fenders and the running boards fell off, mostly from late night excursions around the place with a friend named Jack Daniels or George Dickel, or some guy named, Beam, don't member his first one. ;D Think we chased some Turkey in it a time or two.
Alsmost broke my arm one day playin' pasture polo with a hedgeball and a crooked stick. Right after the master cylinder went out, I had to fix the bob wire fence, instint says push on the foot pedal. ;D
The last year or so we run it, the fuel pump was gone, used a two gallon lawn mower tank of some ancient beast that had died, bailing wired it to where the rear window would have been, worked fine, but the crusin' range was reduced by 1/5th. ;D
-
I had a friend who worked over to the VW place in Muskogee mid 60's to late 70's, he would buy all the cheap bugs he could get his hands on, I know he had 40 of them out in his field at one time, then they started building dune buggys, he built buggys of every description and sold them, I don't know how much he made off them VW's but he must have made quite a profit. if ya needed a part ya knew where to go to get it. ;D
-
Boy, Del, that must have been a sight!! ;D
I love the old beetles!
Del, I found something today in Sportsmans Guide that I think you need for when you take Rowdy hunting.
Every proper cold-weather hunter needs a kennel cover. ;D
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/niemoller/128053_ts.jpg)

Why would I need a kennel cover, the heater in the cab of the pick-up works fine. ;) Sides that there is a furnace in the trailer house at the farm and I have plenty of blankets on my bunk. :D
well of course if 2 people wanted to go with me, I only have a standard cab, but they would have to woory about their ownselves in the back, all my dawgs have rode with me in the cab. ;)

Wasn’t gonna say nothin’ here about this. But, damn it, I’m proud I was a cop ‘n I’m proud of what I did when I was there. I dearly loved Fraud/Forgery. My work in IA was probably more important.
I was honored and happy to go back to work part time as an Employment Investigator. In the same downtown building, across the hall from my old office. Back to work with my department. I’m retired but I’ll always be a cop. I will always be Sgt. R.C. Shipley, Norfolk Police. But the city manager decided we weren’t worth twenty an hour and didn’t fund us, just three of us, again. In other words we were fired.
She did, however, find 98.5 K to pay a convicted felon to head up a city department to coordinate law enforcement activities. This guy has shot ‘n killed people ‘n dealt dope. Ran with one of the most notorious killers in the city’s history. Up until last week, when the news broke, he had failed to pay almost 10 grand in fines owed for twenty years.
It’s all over the news down here. I can post the links. It’s all on pilotonline.com
I don’t live in Norfolk, I live in the beach. Maybe I don’t have an interest anymore. But I worked for ‘em for thirty two years. As corny as it sounds I tried to do it with integrity under a code of ethics passed on by men I respected. Ethics I worked so hard to pass on to the kids as they did to me. I used to tell ‘em if they did anything to dishonor that badge I’d be their worst enemy and I’d do my best to take it away from ‘em. I was pretty good at snatchin’ badges. I hate a dirty cop.
I’m so disgusted with these people I wouldn’t go back to work for ‘em for thirty an hour, a city car, my parkin’ place ‘n my old office back.
Sorry, I just had ta get this outtah my gizzard.

It's tough to see the cheaters win. I try to lead my life the right way too, but dang it if everyone lying, cheating and stealing aren't winning the game. ::) Oh well, I'll stick to my guns and don't plan to start.
Good thing they had you while they did... just think of how much worse it would be today if you hadn't stood your ground.

Arcey, when you and I grew up, it meant something to stick to your word and be honest beyond question, those days are gone by the wayside and you know as well as I do, nowdays it seems to be whatever you can get away with and so long as somebody don't find out, do what you can to advance yourself. It's a shame you can't count on people in general the way you used to.
Used to be when somebody was covering yer back they were there no matter what, I wouldn't trust my back to many now.
It's just everybody for theirselves nowdays, and the kids coming up right now, some with no parent that even cares what they do or where they are at. It just don't look good for the future.
reminds me of what my dad used to tell me years ago, you better act like somebody if you want to be anybody. :)

I often wonder about the future generations and think what will happen when (if) I get old and need to rely on them. People of the '80s were said to be of the "Me Generation", but I think it's worse now. ::)
-
we worry about the grandkids, I guess everybody does, you try to raise your kids with the values you have, at least pass on how you feel aobut things, but with the way things are going your seeing everybody from politicians down to the local officials doing whatever benifits them personally. and this has reached almost each individual.
and another thing is the way jobs are dissappearing, what are the kids of today gonna do? who are they gonna expect to tke care of them if they can't take care of theirselves

There are good young’uns. My son in law fer one. The boy works hard ‘n he’s into politics. A supporter of fairtax.org. I promise if ya needed help ‘n he knew ya he’d be there. He’s a good man. Takes good care of my daughter ‘n my grand kids.
The youngest one’s significant other seems ta be a good man. Worked his way thru school at Radford. Holds down two jobs. Looks like he keeps Andi happy.
The whole rant was it appears that so much of what I worked so hard for just doesn’t mean anything. And, that’s from folks makin’ decisions that ‘er older’n me.

Sorry to hear that Slim. I see these kids they hire at work, some I'd trust to back me, some I'd just a soon shot in the back rather than trust them to back me. Nice thing is, most these kids think they're cowboys, when the ol' phart gives them a hard time and they whine, they just get told to cowboy up. And I tell them sometimes what I think, nuthin' but the truth though, I think that is what some of these kids need is us old pharts ridin' em like the ones did when we were young and dumb, they've been pampered to much sometimes by a society that don't want to hurt their little feelings. ::)
-
that don't hurt the little fellars feelings don't set just right with me either, when we was kids we won we lost or we tied, we didn't just get told it don't matter. when we got out in the real world it damn sure did, everyday you win, lose or draw. how they gonna cope with that when thier feelings have been protected all their lives. ???
-
If I knew the answer to that question, I'd be on late night TV selling cassettes. But I don't, so I'm not. Maybe litl rooster knows? After all, he's running for president. ;D
-
with all them TV writers on strike, you might be able to get yer own show, ;D ;D
tell a few jokes, cook a couple of meals then sell something. that'd be better than a lot of what's on now. have Del on as a guest cook. :o

Heeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrreeeeeeeesssssssss Trinity ;D

Be glad to be a guest on the show, but while were eatin' the meal I want a couple other guests, get me a couple of these lazy good for nuthin' type kids theres to many of at times, a couple of them that ain't never had their feelings hurt in their protected world and I'll interview them. ;D Kind a like the one in the boot dept that don't like me, shoots HS trap, so what, he still don't know poop about guns, don't try to BS someone who is 100 times smarter that you, they might tell you not to pull out their dipstick, they're so full of BS it will flow out. ;)

Thanks for tha coffee P.R.
I'll pass on tha burrito fer now.
Slim, keep trying I know the right job is out there looking for you!
Arcey, this whole Albert mess might be what finally drives out that screwball City Manager. I think that the repercussions from this bone-headed decision will go on for quite a while.
-
Thanks for the coffee PR.
Slim, sorry to hear about your rejection letter.
Arcey, I can appreciate your frustration. I'd be on a mad too.
I'm right proud of myself. Last night I walked away from a deal. There was a S&W 1917 .45acp. It was sweet and I'd say 95%, but the grips were after market. It was early production because it had the GHS in a circle, which was changed to the flaming bomb in April of 1918. The price was fair, but the $$ he was offering for my trade fodder just did not bring the price down enough. :'( I walked away. ;D Twas the toughest thing for me to do as I suffer from SDA (Sensless Desire to Aquire).

this'n my favorite song of Hanks
Hank Thompson - Oklahoma Hills Lyrics
Many months have come & gone, Since I wandered from my home In those Oklahoma hills where I was born.
Many a page of life has turned Many a lesson I have learned But I feel like in those hills I still belongWay down yonder in the Indian Nation I rode my pony on the reservation In those Oklahoma hills where I was born Way down yonder in the Indian Nation
A cowboy's life is my occupation In those Oklahoma hills where I was born. But as I sit here today, Many miles I am away From the place I rode my pony through the draw
Where the oak and blackjack trees Kiss the playful prairie breeze In those Oklahoma hills where I was born. Now as I turn life a page, To the land of the great Osage
In those Oklahoma hills where I was born. Where the black oil rolls & flows And the snow white cotton grows In those Oklahoma hills where I was born.

Mornin’, folkes.

Get Andi up ‘n movin’, she’s gottah be at whatever school she’s werkin’ at one. Get the flat out of the trunk. Her boyfriend had marked the nail – only missed by about three inches. Air it up ‘n sprayed it with soap ‘n water. Showed her the punture. Nothin’ in the hole. Rasp it out ‘n grab the rubber cement – the tubes empty.
Send her to Advance ‘cuz it’s close. I hate Advance BTW. Drag my floor jack out the barn while I’m waitin’.
She gets back. Goop everything up ‘n plug it. Spray it down, no bubbles. Air it up. Notice the donut looks low. Need ta check it.
Chock the rear end ‘n jack it up. She pulls the lugs with the silly l’il wrench what came with the car. Takes the spare off herself. I run it up some more ‘n put the tire back on. Run the lugs down with a real wrench. She’s puttin’ the jig saw puzzle of a spare ‘n stuff back in the trunk – before I had a chance to check the air. Oh well……
Drop the jack.
‘Dad’
‘Yeah?’
‘The wheel cover goes on first.’
She’s right. Jack it back up, pull the lugs ‘n put the wheel cover on. Put the tools away. Grab the Orange Magic out the gun cart ‘n clean up.
She’s tryin’ ta put the valve cap back on ‘n seems ta be havin’ some trouble. That’s because she’s got the cap off the tube of rubber cement instead of the valve cap.
‘Andi, ya might wanna try this one.’ It’s sittin’ on the tail gate of the truck right beside me.
Laugh at an ole man ‘cuz he didn’t know the wheel cover went on first ‘n Karma’ll bite ya in the butt e’er time ……..
Had a good time. Don’t spend ‘nuff time with her since she’s grown.

Howdy, pards. Looks like another pukey day here, cool, sucko coastal marine layer covering everything. Supposed to raqin tomorrow or Saturday. That will help to clear it up.

Hamburgers cooked out on the grill, boy they were good. fried taters on the side. red onions, lettuce
my cousin, Dale came from Oklahoma, to visit and go deer hunting when the season opens saturday. wish we could get one of them hogs that's been digging around in the pasture.
-
Hamburgers sound good!
Are you going to hunt with your cousin?
-
Hamburgers sound good!
Are you going to hunt with your cousin?
yes, he took a week of his vacation for deer hunting, he has the last 3 years
almost anythng is better cooked out on the grill, ;D ;D
-
Glad to hear it. I hope you get the big one!
Cooked out on the grill. As a small boy, I used to make my own BBQ chips by putting plain chips on the grill (not over the fire). I swore they tasted better than BBQ Lays. ;D
-
Got busy up in the Work Dept today, forgot to mention Rita was running a fever of 101 last night, got some anti-biotics for it today and stayed home.
-
now Del you gonna have to splain to Rita, she's supposed to be on the mend, not running no fever.
Trinity, Dale, brought a big stick of baloney with him, we gonna smoke it tomorrow and slice it so we can have some samwhiches with onions and some tater chips. them baloney samwhiches is hard to beat.
-
Del, Hope Rita is feeling better. You didn't slip no red hot peppers in her meal did ya? :o ;D
O.T. sounds like yer gonna have fun this weekend.
-
Del, I hope Rita gets better soon.
OT, I love fried baloney sammiches. Mmmm!
-
we was just sitting here trying to tell Jackie all the ways you can fix that baloney, fry it up like Trinity said, smoke it a little while, sure gives it some flavor, put a little BBQ sauce on it, just slap it on bread with mustard and onions.
-
Hope Rita gets well soon, Del.
Ozark, are yer deer whitetails?
Slim
-
yes Slim all we have is white tail. we sure haven't been seeing too many, but from what I hear they are still out there eating the acorns, we had a freeze a couple of nights ago so I'm hoping they will start coming out and looking in the pastures for some of the oats I planted,
I saw some new hog signs today where they've started coming out in the pastures, rooting around in the dirt. looking for grubs I think. they sure are tasty, wouldn't be bad to get a good one.
-
Howdy, pards. Those fried baloney sandwiches sound good, Trinity. Can't say I'd have thought of it.
Del, take care of Rita and give her my best. Keep her fed well (like there was any doubt).
-
I hadn't ever had them until I moved to this neck of the woods. Boy, then I got addicted to them. I haven't had one in years because last time I made one I used a brand that was too cheap (yes, even in the balogna world there is such a thing as "too cheap") and it tasted bad. Kind of turned me off.
In Germany, I used to love to eat Fleischkäse (literally: Meat Cheese) with a fried egg. It's also known in Bavaria as the delicacy: Leberkäse (literally: Liver Cheese). The taste and texture is very similar to balogna, but it's baked in a bread pan. There is a difference in the ingredients, but I've never thought until tonight to put the internet to use to find out. ;D

Tonight I had a Gyro for dinner. While I enjoyed it, my belly doesn't seem to have liked it at all and I'm not all that excited to talk about food. :( That said, I do believe that when I'm feeling better I'll have to go buy some "quality" balogna and fry it up. I wish there were some German restaurants around. I haven't had a good Leberkäse in years.
-
Been too long since I've dug inta some pig done right.
(http://www.corinth.ms/Images/hogwild.jpg)
-
Oh boy! That picture is going to drive me crazy tomorrow. I can just imagine how tender and tasty the flesh is just under the skin. Mmmmmmmmmm,mmmm,mmm!
-
woo that's just what I'd like to do to one of these hogs around here.
Trinity, have you ever tried Fried Bologna eggs and gravy. ti's a good combination
-
Wow! I never thought of adding gravy to the mix! I know what I'm going to be making this weekend. I hope I can get some thick sliced stuff. I don't like to mess with the little puny thin ones.
-
them hunks of a baloney are usually the best. smoke it a little or cut it lengthwise and grill it low for a little while to give it that smokey taste, then slice it thick and then pan fry it when you want to eat it and fix you some flour gravy and a few eggs.
makes ma mouth water right now.
-
Mmmmmmmm boy! I think I could cause some damage with that. ;D
-
I tell ya what, you'd be full when ya got it all ate. but if ya wrapped up the left over bologna, then fried it for another meal, it'd taste just like ya pulled it off the grill. ;D
-
All this talk of food, I'm getting hungry ;D What I'd like to have is some "good" sausage gravey on biscuits. Lots of sausage in it...................YUM......................Buck 8) ;)
-
Boy yeah that sounds good Buck, The more sasuage the better,
Trinity's gonna have a whole list of things to try this weekend. ;D
-
Never had no fried bologna, eggs and gravy, but some fella named Tom T. Hall used to talk about it some.
Most of the Mulies in Newbrassy are west of here, but there are a few pockets in the east, we have a pocket down around our farm, they live is the rougher stuff between the Big Nemaha and the Little Nemaha rivers. See one once in a while, legal, but we leave them alone. Neighbor came in from bow huntin' Mon, was eatin' luch, heard a terrible racket out side, spike muley was chasin' his German Short Hair around the yard. Said it laid up by the house a while and went down by the barn to sleep, said he walked within a few feet of it several times. If it would have been a whitetail he would have had venison, but we hate to pick on them since they are so scarce.

I'll have to look into that. The picture (I assume that was the stuff) sure looks good. Thanks for another idea.
I hope I can get some thick sliced stuff. I don't like to mess with the little puny thin ones.
I'd think any deli would be able tyo slice it any thickness you want.
I was at a gun range shooters meeting tonight. We're having a chopped rubber backstop installed. We already have armor plating on the walls that will stop three point-blank .44 mag rounds in the same place without failing. The range is getting nicer, but they want to restrict the muzzleloaders from using it. I don't shoot muzzleloaders but am lobbying strongly to allow it. We're still debating that one.
I just talked to my cousin. His dog just got whacked by a car. All he (the dog) got was a broken leg but they're keeping him (the dog) overnight just to make sure. At least he (the dog) didn't get killed.
-
We have another toy recall from China, if you have one of these do not let yer kids play with it, take it back where you bought it and get a refund. ;D

Always good to get cheep ammo. As for the truck, that's what happens in a junk yard after dark. Looks like an old helicoptor mated with the frame of a box truck. Don't ask. Don't tell.
Wooooooooooooo Hooooo! :)
I HATE snow! >:(
almost anythng is better cooked out on the grill, ;D ;D
That's why I grill 52 weeks a year. Never understood folks what don't go out in the cold to cook the beef, chicken, pork, veggies and tofu. (Veggies and Tofu added for the benefit of Trinity since he's all excited about snow. What's that Arcey said about Karma?)
BBQ Lays. ;D
^^^-------insert drool here.

I'm not all that excited to talk about food. :(

It's weird how sometimes deer are attracted to an object, we had an old Ford pick-up down at the farm, used it a lot hunting cause we had a local farm plate on it. Seems like half the time we came back to it, deer were standing around it, sometimes we could see it 1/4 mile away with them looting in the windows and the box. ::)
One of only 3 bucks I ever had a chance to get a shot at that I thought worthy of hangin' on the wall ended up broadside when the chance came, broadside to the grill of the pick-up, 150 yards away. Was a bit afraid the Nosler Partition might go on through and get the radiator, was a 5 mile walk back to the farm. ;D
-
Del, is that your house?
I borrowed your pic and put warnings on other boards and I want to give credit if asked who's house.

Mornin' pards. Great coffee, Stoney, thanks. It was a lot nicer when we got up today. The sky is clear and cold. I built a big fire in the woodstove last night just before hitting the sack. It was still glowing this morning when we got up. We have to head out in a few minutes for Pacific Grove. Be back later on.

Well I just found out how well it pays off to mark handloads and buy stuff ahead. When I moved my loading room right about the time Dad passed on, some stuff not needed real soon was put back out of the way. Stuff I didn't know when I'd want again. Been up sorting stuff and seeing what I had, planned on doing it a month ago, but Rita getting sick put me out of the mood. Had put it off long enough, plan on getting on with Rowdy's training, needed some of my magic pheasant and quail loads, got one box of "will do in a pinch factory loads." Have used a load for 25 years that makes the 28 work almost as good as a standard 12 on them and quail. Knew I could be in trouble, Hodgdon quit making the powder and can't find no more. Checked the back of the powder drawer, 1 unopened can and part of a open one, opened can still smelled like sovent and looks fine. ;D 1 pound will load 400 and some.
Primers, no big deal, winchester still makes the old 209, but price has gone up, checked, full brick. ;D Life got better, ok, what about the shot, durn stuff is expensive and #7 (not 7 1/2) is hard to find, knew there was a powder can full, forgot about the unopened bag I found last century. ;D I know there are once fired 28 ga AA cases in the attic, always use once fired for serious stuff, might be around 500, but have to move stuff to get to the door. Found about a 100 someone gave me 4-5 years ago in the bunker, great, more than enough for this year, unless I find a lot of quail. OK, drug out the Mec 600 from under the bench, looks fine, just have to mount in, no wads though, no big deal, pick up a bag on the way to work, have to pay retail, but I can afford that.
Looked in the bottom of the bunker, an 8 gallon cardboard barrel, chock full of practice loads,, should be all 3/4 oz of #9, load them when I have time, gives me ammo if someone's kid needs to be taught shotgunning, shot a few off in practice this summer with the trap, noticed one had the primer marked green with a magic marker and a light came on. Didn't plan on hunting birds again till I had another dawg, loaned the gun to Gg in 2002, was to sick to hunt and had lost Midnite that summer anyway. Remember when he got it back I dumped all the ammo in the barrel, and was going to just load when I needed it.
Got a couple tubs and sorted, looking for green primers, found almost 3 boxes of them. Now I don't have to load right away, most likely enough for this season. Some days a guy does get lucky.
-
Been throwin’ stuff out the barn little by little. There’s been a bunch of AAs on the floor out of a coffee can I knocked over back in June or so gettin’ the string trimmer out for yard werk. Just left ‘em there.
Anyways, when I got a roundtuit, I picked ‘em up off the floor with my suction-cup-pincher-picker-upper-thingy. They was 21 of ‘em, all primed. All I can think of is I was loadin’ a box sometime ‘n got interrupted. Dumped ‘em in the can to get ‘em outtah the way then flat forgot ‘em. Looked all over for the missin’ 4 but never found ‘em.
Loaded the things up for last Saturday ‘n they all went BOOM. Had me a backup box in case they didn’t.
-
I gueaa it was last winter bought a bunch of shotshell loading stuff from a widow woman. Several old packs of cci brand 109 primers they are still going boom
-
Sounds like a good find, Del. I have a closet with a bunch of shotshell stuff back in there. Maybe this'll get me inspired to go thorough it all. Trouble is, I don't have room for to organize it all nicely. I guess I'll have to start work on the loading bench I've been planning.
-
Made a l’il progress out there. Found stuff I fergot I had. Wish I knew where the hell I put the empty 45-70 cases.

You planning on using one of them .45-70 revolvers for CAS ;D
been raining here off n on today. Was planning on crimping the rounds I made last week. So between laundry and dishes I cleaned a gun up..Should take my Henry down and confirm I didn't need too. :o
-
Heh, heh….. Yeah, maybe so…
They should be on a shelf in the loadin’ corner but they ain’t. Ain’t loaded many o’er the last few years – no place ta shoot ‘em. Loaded a box er two fer ‘Sleep ‘n Cammy ‘n I think she won LRR rifle with ‘em at Roundup. I remember gettin’ ‘em back.
Wonderin’ if I took ‘em out the guncart in the motel room ‘n left ‘em there. Lotsa things kindah happened in that motel I don’t remember. I dunno. Know it’s been awhile since I seen ‘em ‘n I’ve looked.
Kindah wanna shoot the Buff Classic again, Rooster. Ain’t shot it since the old range closed down ‘n it’s got a new sight on it I ain’t never tried. Got no clue where it’s gonna throw ‘em.
-
I had a Buff Classic. Very accurate gun. I found a good deal on a rolling block so I sold it to Ol Gabe.
(http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k186/SilverCreekSlim/Guns%20and%20stuff/100yds.jpg)
Those shots were with BP and 405gr wheel weight boolits. With softer lead it probably could do better.
The bow hunters went down to the woods a little bit ago. Of course it's sprinkling now. ::)

Now I know 2

What kind of sight do you have on it? I've been thinking about putting something worthwhile on mine but haven't any idea what would be good.
Now I know 2
LOL. 3, now.

Arcey, too bad you didn't have the 45-70 last weekend at the range. I would like to see what it would have done to one of those pumpkins. ;D
When my loading table cracked I removed my loading equipment and then cleaned it out so I could move it out of the way and set up my new table. In the cabinet underneath way in the back under some unused equipment I found 100 Pistol and 100 Rifle .45 rounds loaded in heathen. I haven't loaded heathen in over two years. Now I have to go shoot them so I can pu the correct powder in them. ;D ;D ;D
-
Found a few sleeves of CCI #157 primers up there, ain't used them in years, bought a brick back in maybe 88 or so. Remington used to use that size, smaller than a 109, when I started loading in 79 they had started to switch to 209's, all that still used them were the 3" 12's, the 10's and the 28's. Still had some Remmy and Peters 28 cases then, and when you shoot one of them, you use up all yer cases and thank anyone who gives you any three times. Most guys that shoot them reload so they can be hard to find, the price of factory ammo will scare you, durn gun has cost me a lot more to shoot over the years, because of it, good guess is over 50,000 rounds a lot fired to get good with it.
Still ain't figgered out almost 30 years later why I bought it, got it in Dec of 77. Just don't like pump guns, love a nice double, if it wasn't one of the best handling shotguns I ever threw to my shoulder I would have parted with it long a go, heck, would have never even bought it. Almost walked out of the shop with no more than a grange, was lookin' for a 20 double. Stupid Randy, the shop owner, told me to shoulder it and that was that, I knew I could kill lots of birds with it. ::)
Guess I'm stuck with it now, the wood has scratches in it and some small dents, almost no blueing on the receiver left, in front of the trigger guard looks like it was peened with a tiny hammer from shoving shells in it when the doves are coming in fast. Durn thing is so slick from use you can hit the bolt release and make it open and close just holding on to the grip and shaking it hard. (empty of course) If I keep using it I'm going to have to replace the shell interceptor latches, don't think they'll last more that another 5000 rounds or so. Has cost me twice to fix it at the gunsmith, the middle bead on the Mod barrel got knocked off one time, don't know how, the front bead on the Skeet barrel lost the ivory bead, has cost me less than $20 in repairs.

Marshall Will did you get that sampling of boolits yet? and have you used any? Unlike LIT I am not going to find 200 rounds stuck in behind the shelve...I need to load my bride some
I have had vision of assulting a pumplim patch,modified> Pumkin
-
Hell, ain’t shot it ‘nuff ta know whether I like it er not. Had a Handi Rifle in .223 I used fer a plinker. It was fun. Sent it off for a 45-70 refit. Pretty nice but I sold it ‘n bought the Buff. Me ‘n Veeb were gonna go ta Creeds ta shoot the ‘assault’ rifles ‘n I was gonna carry it along but we never got there.
Will, we shoot no more than a hundred yards at the places I shoot. I wanted a flat top Marbles mounted on the barrel about like the Marlin Cowboy. Ain’t a problem hittin’ at a hundred with that. Reckon me ‘n the machinist got our wires crossed ‘n he dovetailed it at the breech. Didn’t look at it ‘til I got it home ‘n was gonna take it back but since I’ve seen a couple others done that way so I wanna try it as is. Pretty sure it’s gonna need a taller front sight.
-
I see them Buffalo classics now and then fer sale never knew anyone who owned them. Do you like it?
Now I know 2
Nope LR, Ya know 3, I had a 45-70 Buff Classic, shot real good, but I never had a chance ta use it. I traded it to a friend who did a LOT of werk on tha Wifes car. He seems ta like it. I had a Mid Range tang site with a Globe front with spirit level on tha front
-
Ya know 4, lR. Mine's got a Taylors BP vernier and a Lyman 17A globe front with Lee Shaver inserts. pretty accurate gun, more so than the guy holding it ;D 8) ::)
-
I had one of the older ones, had a 22 inch barrel and the cleaning rod under the barrel back in the early 80's, think they called it a Shirika or something like that, swapped it to Dad for him a deer rifle and he got rid of it when he got his 243 pump. Been around several of the H&r break action rifles, brother owns my old Hornet, they all shot got that I know of. I know there have been some problems with the 38-55's but that's cause the specs for that round is all over the map. Only thing I don't like about them is trigger, but they ain't that bad, just like good triggers.
-
well got everything ready for in the morning, just knowing how to dress is gonna be tough, supposed to be in the high 40's tonight then up to 75 during the day, don't wanta dress too warm. be smothering all day. ;D
found several rubs today and even found some more signs of hogs being over at the end of the field. I'd just take either one. hog or deer, both would be good eating.
-

All I got so far is the Desperado sample. I already have some Big Lube bullets. Now I have two more samples coming. Penn bullet is going to send a sample yet. Bear Creek is still in business so I have some .454's coming from them but they may be a while in the coming since I ordered them from the local shop. When I have everything here, I'll load a good sampling of each one and go try them all together. That will take care of one of the three issues I've been having with my accuracy.
Issue #two is also taken care of. Today I'm trying a stronger prescription contact in my right eye. So far, it is really great.
Issue #three is the front sights. I need to do something to make them more visible. I think I may need to change to brass blades, made from coins or something else historically correct. Hey, Del, you have any suggestions on what I could do to make sights I can see in all lighting conditions?

I put a taller front one on my match rifle since it never gets shot at any distance to speak of. The BuffC is an unknown. We shoot maybe up to 200 around here. I'll have to figure something out.

Mine is in 38-55 but I think I either got one of the good ones or fell into a good load the first time out. I can shoot nice, tight groups for the first 50 shots until it leads up. Couldn't tell you what vintage it is because I bought it used maybe 5 years ago. It's marked W&H so if you know when they made those, that'd give you some idea.
-
morning..git your Coffee here ;D It's high test regular, hot n black no low octane phoo phoo blends like some coosies serve at some of the wagons
It's a mandatory training day today...plus my 12 hour tour...so I am off early
so now I have lost track how many of them Buff Classics, 5 or 6. I didn't hear anyone complain on them...Might have to watch for a deal on one.
Will, I was thinking about the PennBullets.. I think the gunshow is next weekend if I get a chance I'll see if he is there again
Y'll have a g'dae
-
Mornin' folks! Thanks for the coffee, LR!
I'll have to look into that. The picture (I assume that was the stuff) sure looks good. Thanks for another idea.
If there's nothing else that I learn from this board, at least I can get some good food ideas. ;D ;D
I'd think any deli would be able tyo slice it any thickness you want.
We've only got a couple proper delis in town. I always go there to eat, but never think of bringing meat home, although I know they sell it. Thanks for reminding me.
I was at a gun range shooters meeting tonight. We're having a chopped rubber backstop installed. We already have armor plating on the walls that will stop three point-blank .44 mag rounds in the same place without failing. The range is getting nicer, but they want to restrict the muzzleloaders from using it. I don't shoot muzzleloaders but am lobbying strongly to allow it. We're still debating that one.
I just talked to my cousin. His dog just got whacked by a car. All he (the dog) got was a broken leg but they're keeping him (the dog) overnight just to make sure. At least he (the dog) didn't get killed.
Our indoor doesn't allow any black powder, even though they have a ventilation system that will knock you down. :(
I saw a cat almost get it yesterday. Their mothers must never have told them to look both ways before crossing the street. :D I'm glad the dawg is ok.
Coffee is on here, 31 out.
BTW, look under yer trampoline before you jump om it.
(http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i200/Delmonico_1885/FUN/Trampoline.jpg)
Ouch!
Somehow I just can't see Del jumpin on a trampoline... :o
:D :D :D
-
thanks for the coffee
been sitting out in the tree stand since a little after 5, didn't see anything but one doe, it sure is nice out there, I enjoy being out there just watching the squirells and listening to all the morning sounds, heard a little shooting around the country side, nothing close, guess we'll try a couple more times today. ;D
50 here this morning, kinda cloudy with a southeast wind about 15 mph, not to bad, at least I didn't need all my insulated gear.
-
Well I'm at work, somebody, won't mention her name kinda ruined my deer hunting, was thinkin' of gettin' one of them 2 for the price of one antlerless permits and takin' this weekend off, can't afford it know and wouldn't leave her alone with the dog yet, she is not sure she could handle him if he got a wild hair up his butt. But he does that less and less now. ;D
Didn't get on last night, always forward the home phone to one of the cell phones since we're on dial-up in case of emergency and someone needs us. Well Altel lost most of SE Newbrassky last night for several hours so I left the land line intact.
-
Morning y'all.
Thanks fer the coffee, Litl Rooster.
Good luck out there, Ozark.
Mine is in 38-55 but I think I either got one of the good ones or fell into a good load the first time out. I can shoot nice, tight groups for the first 50 shots until it leads up. Couldn't tell you what vintage it is because I bought it used maybe 5 years ago. It's marked W&H so if you know when they made those, that'd give you some idea.
Ya might try some softer boolits. It will probably stop the leading.
I just read an article, "Loading Cast and Jacketed Bullets" by Dave Scovill, in the Dec. 2007 Handloader mag. Among other things, it talks about the use of too had of boolits for the velocity and pressures of your gun. It causes leading because "the base of the bullet cannot expand (obturate) to form a gas seal. This allowed combustion gas to escape past the heel, eroding the surface of the driving bands. The result was a deposit of lead alloy in the chamber throat, forcing cone and barrel. Not only was leading contributing to lousy accuracy, but excessive friction caused by the buildup of leading occasionally caused a low-velocity relatively hard cast bullet to lodge in the barrel." That is a small sampling of the great info in this article that pertains to CAS. Y'all should pick up a copy. A cosie we all know pretty much has told me the some things that are in the article. ;)
'Tis 30 and overcast. High of 44. Was 20 when I got outta bed.
Slim
-
Mornin' Fellas,
Thanks for the no phoo phoo coffee.
Is overcast here today. Planning on horseback riding tomorrow so hopefully it won't be in the rain.
http://home.aristotle.net/Thanksgiving/trivia.asp (http://home.aristotle.net/Thanksgiving/trivia.asp) How good are you at the Turkey trivia quiz?....I was not, but I never claimed to know much more about them than how to cook and serve :)
Y'all have a great day.
-
Well Slim, I had began to figure some of that out and then Dave wrote several articals that pretty much confermed it in my mind.
I knew I was on to something the first time I shot my 32 mag with the wadcutters I cast out of Lino, (Well I wanted them as perfect as possible) Loaded a load that duplicated the ISU 32 Long load for the expensive auto's and added 10% for the longer case. Shot like poop, and leaded to the point of the rifling going away for a while.
-
SA, I'll try it, but they better have it right themselves. ;D
-
Here's another tidbit from the article. "The situation resulting from the use of spitball cast bullet loads in cowboy action is accented by renewed interest in the Lewis Lead Remover. One would imagine folks might get the hint: If cast bullets are causing leading, it might make sense to fix the load - use a softer bullet alloy and develop a load that shoots cleanly - rather than spend free time scraping crud out of the gun. And, yes I've heard the argument that commercial cast bullet manufacturers don't use softer alloys, but it's a sad day when common sense can't trump Madison Avenue ignorance."
Slim
-
OK, I got 14, don't totally agree with them on a couple, didn't know that ate so many in that country and never counted the feathers, just plucked them. ;D
-
Well I did pretty good on the turkey quiz, 15 out of the 20, ;D we've raised about 1.8 million turkey birds the past 10 years, I hope I learned a litte about em ;D
Del, you know they sure got a lot of feathers when you clean out one of these houses after they go out.
-
Well, finally got my sniffling/coughing butt up. Dang upper respiratory crap :(
Thanks for the coffee, at least it melts the stuff in my throat.
Will, are those samples you got coming from Penn the softer alloy? They offer you a choice of alloys, a softer CAS type and a somewhat harder one for autos and higher velocity revolvers. Their QC is really good, my next orders will be from them if I don't get priced out.......................Buck 8) ;)
-
Most store bought bullets use what is called the Taraco Alloy, 2% tin, 6% antimony and 92% lead. This was developed in the 80's for the IPSC shooters who were mostly using 38 Super for the top shooters, it is the cheapest and hardest alloy that gives a a very high percentage of good castings.
-
I got 13 right.
I have a problem with: "What sound does a female turkey make?" They make numerous sounds. ::)
Slim
-
I got 15. ;D
-
Buck, you need ta get ya a few of them turekys to raise. ;D
Slim, they do make a lot of sounds, they got a happy click, and they got a we're hungry sound, they got a danger signal when they think somethings about ta get em. (crow flying by), sometimes you'll hear the wild ones talking to the tame ones, they seem to converse pretty good.
-
Hope you get to feeling better soon, Buck.
I got 11 right, but most of those were just wild (and lucky) guesses. ::) Just about the only thing I know about turkeys is that you get them at the grocery store in plastic bags wrapped in plastic netting. ;D
-
And they're generally hard and very cold, too, Trinity ;D
-
That was one I objected to, plus I'm not so sure the run and fly that fast, or at least the ones I've seen in the wild don't.
-
I've only seen them on short hops across the road here, they weren't in any real hurry......Buck 8) ::)
-
Just talked to my brother, his season was short, he said he was with in a minute either way of it being really leagal, took him a bit to get goin' this mornin' and was a bit late gettin' to his stand he uses for rifle huntin' a lot, it was there waiting to be shot I guess. ;D He said them loads I load him have a lot of muzzle flash, whinin' again about the bullet not exitin', guess he needs a 45-70 with a 500 gr. He said the bullet is in the rear ham again on a frontal chest shot, said it took the hair off right there so it must have wanted to exit. Guess that ai'n to bad for a 270 with a 130 gr. ;)
-
Howdy, pards. Been to the auto auction and finished rigging my wife's sidecar. It'll all need to be done again after I make a new mount for it, but at least I know the target positioning, now.
Will, I was thinking about the PennBullets.. I think the gunshow is next weekend if I get a chance I'll see if he is there again
They're the ones I'm really waiting to try. It'll be good to see what they can do.
If there's nothing else that I learn from this board, at least I can get some good food ideas. ;D ;D
So I've learned.
Our indoor doesn't allow any black powder, even though they have a ventilation system that will knock you down. :(
It'll be interesting to see where this settles.
I'm glad the dawg is ok.
Yeah, the vet is doing OK, too, at $4000 to fix the leg. :o

Don't know that I'd have thought of that. It makes perfect sense. Thanks for the tip. I'll try it.
Will, are those samples you got coming from Penn the softer alloy? They offer you a choice of alloys, a softer CAS type and a somewhat harder one for autos and higher velocity revolvers.
He knows I'm using them for CAS, so I expect they'll be the softer ones.

You have any idea what the formula for the softer "20:1" bullets might be? Does that tell me 20 parts lead to 1 part tin?
Got 9 right on the turkey quiz. Better than I was expecting. ;D
-
Yep it is that, 5% tin, 95% lead.
-
OK, just sold 4 horse shoes, (00 Diamond Saddle Lite) guy want to know if the nails came with them, when I told him no, he counted and said 8 holes per shoe, guess I need 32. Sold him a box of 100, gawd I hope the horse survives. ::)
-
Yep it is that, 5% tin, 95% lead.
Thanks, I thought that. Is antimony harder than zinc?
he counted and said 8 holes per shoe, guess I need 32.
:o
Oh, yeah, here's another bargain we saw in our travels yesterday. This can be had for next to nothing.
-
Del, if he puts the first nail in wrong, hopefully the horse will teach him that he shouldn't shoe if he doesn't know what to do.

no meat hanging yet, saw all does this evening, 5 of em, try em again in the morning. ;D
4 shoes and 32 nails, :o :o, I'd give a quarter to see that shoeing, was he gonna use a roofing hammer.
-
Lessee, ya gotta trim tha hoof. Then ya gotta fit tha shoe. Then ya gotta nail tha shoe on. Then ya gotta cut tha nails. Then ya gotta rasp tha nail line. Then ya gotta crimp the nails and shoe for a tight fit. I got most of tha tools and I don't think I would try shoeing my own horse! :o
Course this fella might be one a them experts what done read all about it and knows more'n most! ::)

he mighta even been watching RFD TV, they showed a fellar shoeing a mule on one show. ;D

-
Mornin' got coffee on here, a bit foggy, but not bad, just can't see beyound a 1/2 mile out.
I can't even get any horse shoers to leave me cards any mor, good bad or indifferent. They is all so busy they don't want any more to do. Got to many horses around Lincoln, most don't need shoed to be rode once or so a month on soft ground, cause we don't have a lot of rock. But these 5 acres and a horse folks want them shoed so they keep a big bunch of them busy. Oh well the wholesale house in Gretna gets the bulk of the bizzness, I get the I need it quick stuff, the farriers make a kiving and were all happy.
Course half or more of the shoes I sell get welded together for decoration type items, but I don't give a durn, don't even care of folks buy them to make soup with or to do kinky things in the bedroom with, although Tack gets more of that bizzness. ;D

Mornin’, peoples.
Mr. Furrier, this here’s mah hoss. Ah set ah four PR235-55-16s please…….
The weather, the quiet, the wimmen out the house. Waddah weekend so far.
Met a pard I ain’t never seen before yestiddy. Sher was nice. Seen some whut I ain’t seen in way too long too. Spent time with cuzzin’ Tom on the ride. Won’t recommend ‘e stop it Wendy’s in Petersburg no more. We came up with solutions ta all the problems in the werld wit a focus on CAS ‘n CasCity. Talked bad ‘bout all y’all too.
Yup. Real nice weekend.

Why thank ya kindly, Arcey............ 8) ;D

I knew there were flames a shootin' out my ears for some reason. ;)
BTW, litl rooster will spit his coffee at this one, but I knew the fella yesterday wen't no real cow punchin' ropin' and sack lunch eatin' (yes read it again litl rooster, I mean RMO) type cowboy, one a them would have wanted 34 nails so he had two in his hat band in case of a blow out. ;D
-
Hehehehehehehehehehehe…..
Not a problem, Buck. Thit’s whut pards er fer.
Done cleaned up whut I messed up last night. Steak, collards, taters 'n beer were real good. The desert I discussed with Tom weren't bad but I need ta werk on it sumore. Didn't quite get it ta taste. Did make a l'il mess wit it all thou.
Laundrys in the dryer. Got a couple hours ‘fore the game starts ‘n ruins my good mood.
Gonna go out ‘n ponder cleanin’ the gutters while I do some gun stuff.

Howdy, pards. Thanks for the coffee, LR.
We had rain all night. I like to sleep with it pounding down on the roof. It's stopped now but still cloudy. It may clear up this afternoon.
Course half or more of the shoes I sell get welded together for decoration type items
I have hat hangers I made from them. I'm wiser than to try shoeing horses. Have a friend who does that. He's welcome to it.
I jammed one of the Desperado .454 bullets in an empty, sized case to see how much squishing I'd get. After popping the bullet out, it measured .453, plus or minus. I need to figure out how to neck-size my cases to .452. The Dillon die is .448, too tight for the softer bullets.
-
Will, just load some up that way and try them, should work fine, the nice thing is soft bullets bump up and down real easy, one of the beuties of them.

That's good, much better than a head full of shooter's rumors. ;)

Marshal Will, if you have a .45acp die set try measuring the expander plug on that, It may be the correct size for what you want and if it's the same brand of die set will interchange

The expander die is the same for both 45 ACP and 45 Colt. I called Dillon and they agreed that there isn't a bigger one. Thanks for the input, though. What Dillon suggested was to take mine down to a machine shop and have one made to the right size. I don't think it's worth what I'd have to pay to have that done.
-
Just bell the cases enough ta get the bullet started.

Got the press set just right for that. I just loaded up 10 of the Desperado bullets and put them in the box with my 10 Big Lube test loads and the 10 Bear Creek .452's for a comparison load. I have two more samples to load up when the bullets arrive, then I'll shoot all of them at the same time.
I've been reloading for 30 years and this is the first time I've done softer bullets. I'm enjoying learning something new, here

That's great, Marshal Will.

OK, just sold 4 horse shoes, (00 Diamond Saddle Lite) guy want to know if the nails came with them, when I told him no, he counted and said 8 holes per shoe, guess I need 32. Sold him a box of 100, gawd I hope the horse survives. ::)

OK, I was wrong I just talked to my cousin. $4800 to bail the dog out today and probably a good portion of that more before they're done. :o

I've been speaking that language for the past fifteen or so years. ;D OH! You're tawlkin' 'bout computers, ain' ya?
I went today to shoot with the Thornfield Rangers and had a great time. I don't know why, but I always thought that they were further away, but it only took me a little over an hour to get there (including taking a couple wrong turns. ::)). I forgot to time my return trip, but I'm guessing it should take no more than fifty minutes or so. Driving back home was terrible. I was sooooooooo tired. Luckily, I made it home without killing myself or anyone else, shucked my duds and fell into the bed.
I was up late last night and really thought about not getting up this morning, but I finally forced myself to get up. I do so much better if there is someone else to wake me up or relying on me to do something. If it's just me, I'll usually forgo in exchange for more sleep. ::) ;D

I second that.
I appreciate it, y’all. Ya kindah need ta thank Tom too. He run his mouth more’n I did.

I wish I felt like tha pollytishuns appreciated the Service men and women the way the people on this board do. Seems like every year they get closer and closer to cutting the benefits of those that serve back even further. I think the everyone that runs for office should have to honorably serve their country first, then maybe they could appreciate what those fine men and women have done for them.
Okay rant off!

A Stark Reminder of War, 25 Years On
By RAYMOND HERNANDEZ
WASHINGTON, Nov. 11 — Throngs of veterans gathered on Sunday under a clear sky on the Mall to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, a stark symbol of a war that bitterly divided the nation.
In a poignant reminder of that tumultuous time, the veterans wept, prayed or reminisced at the stone memorial inscribed with the names of 58,256 Americans killed or missing in the Vietnam War.
“I can hardly explain how I feel,” said Joe Hatathle, 63, who was an Army engineer in Vietnam and who traveled here from Rock Point, Ariz., to attend a ceremony to rededicate the memorial. “It’s a mix of sadness and pride.”
At a time when the nation is divided over the war in Iraq, the gathering was, to many in attendance here, a momentary break from the politics of war.
It was a sentiment that seemed to be summed up by the ceremony’s keynote speaker, Colin L. Powell, a Vietnam veteran who when he was secretary of state pushed the United Nations Security Council to adopt a resolution demanding that Iraq comply with weapons inspections or face the prospect of war.
“There are no politics here, no policy disagreements,” Mr. Powell said at the ceremony, calling the memorial “a sacred place.”
The ceremony was one of many gatherings held across the country on Veterans Day.
At nearby Arlington National Cemetery, Vice President Dick Cheney laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns and, in a speech, paid tribute to members of the American military fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“Gathered as we are today in a time of war, we’re only more sharply aware of the nation’s debt to the members of the armed forces,” Mr. Cheney said. “They are constantly in our thoughts.”
The Vietnam memorial was dedicated on Nov. 13, 1982, a black, V-shaped monument of granite on the mall between the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument.
It was the creation of Maya Lin, who was an architecture student at Yale at the time. The selection of her design was controversial then. Ms. Lin did not attend the ceremony, but she sent a message that was read to the crowd saying, among other things, that she never foresaw the powerful emotional response the monument would stir.

I'm up, got some 'spressoo on, yes thanks to the vetrans and I won't rant but should.
Gonna take the dog out in a bit to some state land 'bout 10 miles away, don't expect real good but who knows, we'll have fun and that is what counts, a day afield with a good dog and a shotgun ain't wasted.

Mornin’, boys.
Around 60 with some clouds. Not bad a’tall.
Grew up in what amounted to a housin’ development for former military personnel. Most of the men there were WWII vets. Mustered out. Found jobs ‘n stayed. Young ‘n stupid, I doubt many, if any, of us kids ever said thanks back then. Today, I wish I could say it face to face but it’s too late.
To all our Vets. A very humble and sincere Thank You.

Went to the foothills for a ride with my friend yesterday. I rode her 17 hand Tenn Walker. He sure was alot of fun. He has a very smooth gait that her other horse has to lope to keep up with. Then when he deceided to lope the trees were moving by at a pretty good clip ;D
Have a great day

Happy Veterans Day. I, also, won't get on a rant. Thanks to all who served and I appreciate those who appreciate the service done by all Vets.

We're back, just got up a couple hens, should have went out earlier, but since I'm going to close state land I let the deer hunters have a chance. Was a good training session, he sure if figgerin' out what I want him to do and how far I want him to range. Got a pardon from the warden and get to spend Thanksgiving in the field with him down at the farm where things should be better.
Got me a big ol' bag of black walnuts, needed the hulls to 'spear-a-mint with makin' some wood stain out of the hulls, just ain't happy with the Sharps, to cheap to restock it with real black walnut, gonna see if I can get that stuff from Italy a better color, picky I know, but I want it to look right.
1000 Walnut trees on our farm almost 30 years old and several much older and I have to steal them off state land from the squirrels, guess the late frost didn't hit down there as bad.

Glad to hear you had an enjoyable day Del!
Let us know how tha speer - mint goes! ;D

them juicy wlanut hulls work pretty good on them traps, got an uncle tells about him and some other kids back in the 30's had a rash, split open a few juicy green walnut hulls and rubbed it all over the rash, he said the rash was gone in about 3 days but the black stain lasted almost 8 months ;D
he said he had never had anything burn that bad, said they spent the rest of the afternoon sitting in the river after putting it on.

Hummm, our local store has 2-3 brands, plus beef and pork, I buy it all the time, just don't eat it, Rita does, with P Nutbutter. :-X
BTW did you know the big companies make their hot doga and bolonga from the same slurry, just depends of where it goes after that, saw it on the food channel and was told by someone in the industry.
-
I think Arcey's been tellin' us that for years ;D
Del, They didn't replace the whole harness, just one particular wire running from the dash/light switch all the way to the back. Guess that's where the problem was. More than likely thr result of the last accident it was in. only lights not working now are the license plate ones. Probably the bulbs or bad ground for the sockets. only charged her $50.............Buck 8) ::) ;D
-
I think if you get it at the deli, you could have it sliced just the size you want it and probably get really good bologna, be sure and get the meat that is a darker color, some of it is real light colored, always seems to me the darker is a lot tastier.
we sliced ours a little over a quarter inch thick and fryed it real good in a pan, white bread, mustard, onions and some fritos killer meal :o
I saw that about coming from the same slurry, made me laugh, at all them people sitting there eating hot dogs saying they wouldn't be caught dead eating no bologna. ;D
-
The only bologna I eat comes from a Deli and it had better be good, hot dogs come from local makers that ain't big and they better be coarse ground, a fine ground can hide most anything. :o

Well, I work with a guy who used to work in a food plant and was told by the health inspector that all hot dawg plants are gross, but if forced, he only would dare to eat OM.

Shotgun love
She sure does have big barrels:]
Nice shotgun, pard.
The only bologna I eat comes from a Deli and it had better be good, hot dogs come from local makers that ain't big and they better be coarse ground, a fine ground can hide most anything. :o
We have a local country market that makes sausages and such from scratch. People fly in to get their stuff. Truly outstanding. Real food. ;)
I saw that about coming from the same slurry, made me laugh, at all them people sitting there eating hot dogs saying they wouldn't be caught dead eating no bologna. ;D
Mondo weenies. What size bun do you use on the big stuff? ;D

Well here it is, I forgot how bloated I still was from being sick that year, this was in 2005 at the GAF muster.

Well I never said I was small and maybe I'm a little a little pudgy, but there is only about 10 lb differance between the two pictures taken almost a year apart, had to take a bunch of seriods that year. Was back in the hospital less than 3 weeks after that, if Gopher Grease and Rita would have known how sick I was, they would have killed me them ownselves. ;D

I'm up, got coffee on, was gonna go out with the dog this mornin' but had a Charly Horse in my leg earlier and it's sore. Had it right on the stairs 'bout 4am, danged near tumbled down them, that would have been a mess, considerin' what I was up to do. :P
Slim yer lucky I saw the green and white bucket in the photo. Didn't need all 8 pounds by far, but it makes good fire starter and besides that the 8 was cheaper than the 4 pounder that day, go figure.

Mornin' pards. Thanks for the coffee, Sleep. It's another beautiful day here. Yesterday was up in the ow 70's rather than the middle 60's the way they forcast. It was a little warmer last night and the forcast is for a couple degrees warmer. It promises to be nice again today.

Got to the State owned range this morning single shot scoped pistols only. Shot up a bunch of heathen 44-40 rounds so I can recover the brass. Shot another bunch of cull .45's mixed powder and now can recover them as well. Many shooters sighting rifles for Monday's opening day of deer rifle season. I also shot a hand full of 12 gauge loads I'll report my finds on the Darksiders forum.

I’d use that…….
Kindah want my shooters thinkin’, not rememberin’. January is my turn again. Been messin’ with it.
Stage 1 – Left
10 Pistol & Rifle 2 Scattergun
2 pistols loaded with 5 each HDEC and holstered. Rifle loaded with 10 HDEC on the rest in the door way.
Shotgun held no higher than waist level LOADED WITH NO MORE THAN 2 SHELLS AT THE RO’S DIRECTION NOT BEFORE.
Shooter shouts, with feeling and emotion, “We had ta pay for it!”, then waits for the beep.
On the beep, flatten the two shotgun KDs. Make shotgun safe and discard on the rest.
Draw a pistol, any pistol. Double tap two of the white targets and single the other. Return pistol to leather HDFC.
Grab the rifle and shoot at, with the intention of hitting, the four black targets with at least two consecutive shots on each in a sweep until empty. Make rifle safe and return to the rest.
Draw the other pistol. Double tap two of the white targets and single the other. Return pistol to leather HDFC.
Stage over. Follow the RO’s directions.
-
well got all the cakeing out done, got both houses shavings pushed up, then the bottom fell out of the temperature. was 72 at noon, it's 55 right now with a stout North wind, supposed to be down around freezing in the monring, but it's supposed to a quick cool down, back up in the high 60's by Friday,
guess I'll haul in some fire wood and get ready to build a little fire tonight.
-
The other night my truck cranked a little slow, started thinking it's a '99 Still got factory power pack. I went into town and picked up another. That and a air filter $120. I know the replacement battery won't last nearly as long as the manufactors. Now to round up the proper tools.

Yep, glad they didn't didn't wait till Sunday to sight in.

Arcey, as a gunfighter do you return both pistols to leather after 5 rounds, or just shoot one pistol at a time.
-

Gunfighters will have to go double duelist on that. Hate ta do it ta Will but sometimes ya wanna split the pistols. That’ll be the only stage. The rest he kin blast away with both fists.
Fellas it’s really nice out. Susie already has a pork tenderloin in the oven or I’d run out ‘n find somethin’ ta grill.

Thanks I want to give gunfighter ago this next year.
It's starting to cloud up here but it has been in the low 70' the last couple of hours can't complain about that.
-
I figured my little stage would get a rise out of you Arcey! ;D
You keep writing them stages, yours are always fun! ;D
-
I’d use that…….
We use it a lot. Another one that is highly popular at our club is alternating the same way with 7 targets. One shot on each odd number and two on each even: 1 on 1, 2 on 2, 1 on 3, 2 on 4, 1 on 5, 2 on 6 and 1 on 7. (10 shots)
We had recently had a good stage with that order. 2 rows of 7 targets each (14 total). We usually use cowboy targets and paint one foot yellow on odd numbered targets and both feet yellow on even ones to help those who get balled up while shooting. 10 pistol, 10 rifle, 2 shotgun.
;) ;) ;)
;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
:) :) :)
:) :) :) :) :) :) :)
Position 1 Position 2
Start at Position 1. At the beep, do a continuous sweep using both pistols on p1 - p7 starting from either side. Holster pistols. Move to Position 2 and sweep the rifle targets, r1 - r7, in the same order. Make rifle safe. Go back to Position 1 and engage the two outside pistol targets with the shotgun.
-
Thanx, Tom.
Nice set, Will. The trouble we’d have is we run two stage sets ‘n we don’t have the targets ‘n stands to do it. If we did we wouldn’t have room in the conex to store ‘em. Although the place is members only there are still gun slobs there who’d shoot ‘em up if we didn’t lock ‘em away.
I try to use black ‘n white. White for pistol ‘n black for rifle. We have folks with problems with some colors, like me. If I write a 4 target set for pistols directin’ one to be doubled I’ll use a cowboy or an injun. The target will be white ‘n the hat or injun’s feather is painted black for the DT target.
-
well it's 50 here, sure feels cool compared to the 65 we've had overnight the last few nights. still ain't too bad, just the wind makes it feel a lot cooler when ya go outside.
gotta go get a filling replaced in the morning, dang salads, them crutons are tough on loose filings ;D
-
I don't care for gravel on my salads
-
I always get a few of them crutons but I usually chew them on the side that didn't have anything loose but ma tounge just missed this one a while back ;D
-
I never get any croutons in my salad, they keep cheatin' me and I get hunks of old dried up bread. ;D

Watch the black olives. Some er pitted ‘n some ain’t. Once ya bite one not thinkin’ ya won’t no more.

Nice set, Will. The trouble we’d have is we run two stage sets ‘n we don’t have the targets ‘n stands to do it.
I replied to this earlier, but I must have put it on another thread or just forgot to post it. Anyway, alternately, you can do one row of 7 targets and use them for both rifle and pistol (also shotgun since it uses two of the pistol targets. The other alternative was to do two rows of a gonzales sweep (Nevada sweep with double-tap in the middle. I'll look in my stash of stages and see if there are any wuing minimal targets for you.

We don't have that problem. We use a range that's owned by a local Swiss organization. They're meticulous. Chewed on us for leaving cigarette butts out on the range recently. We don't have many smokers in the club so there couldn't have been that many lying around. I'd rather have it that way because we know it's clean when we show up for a match.

Slim, there was an 8 point standing out in the back pasture this morning about daylight, I guess this cool snap has brought em out to eat some.

Deer Season(Gun) starts this sat,gotta werk, but hopefully I'll be out Sunday mornin, got my first huntinlic. in about 10 years, never had tha time er a place ta hunt. That changed this year. only allowed 1 antlered deer with tha lic., unless ya send in fer a doe permit, which I missed doin this year. wish me luck, I need some venison ;D

They're moving here, too. Had a pair across the street Tuesday night when I took the garbage out to the curb. We saw two at our one client's house the same day, one was a good sized doe, the other was a spike buck that looked terribly confused. Second time we've seen him this year.
got my swaybar link installed today, finally. The mechanic took a torch to the head to get it out. Had the truck back in an hour and a half. Ran me $15 ;D

The DNR should do that here. I have to shoot an antlerless before I can shoot an antlered one. It was that way last year too. Guess what I saw at dawn opening morning? Two bucks. ::)

The eastern count is what you said. As fer as I know there are two western counts. One is counting the points on one half of the rack, so that buck would be a 4 point. The other is counting each half separate and putting "by" between the number such as "4 by 4".
'Tis 20 and clear. Feeling like Winter.

that bear sure had some claws on him,

You had it all wrong. You take off when he is there and stay around when he's not. That gives you more time out of his line if fire, see?
Yeah, I was thinking that about his claws too. I sure would hate to be on the receiving end of one of his swipes! :o

Just think, if that would have been a little care he would have swatted it right off the road. ;D
Our rifle deer permits you put in for first draw in April, only those who didn''t have one last year. The rest are for grabs for Nebraskans in May after that for anybody. My area, either sex on that. If Rita hadn't got sick on me I'd got a Season choice, antlers less than 6 inches, Just availible in the problem areas. Good for bow, rifle, muzzle loader or late season rifle, just some areas, permits unlimited, can buy them on the net, could shoot a hundred if I bought the permits and could shoot that many in 9 days. ;D

Mornin' not quit so cold here this mornin' it's 37.
well I'm gonna go get my P-monia and Flu shot one of these days soon. My Dr. recomends it. You get them you will get a mild form of the disease for which you get it for, how bad it is will vary with the individual. Us old Pharts when together referance the different sizes of our smallpox Vac scars.
One thing my Doc says that makes sense to me about the flu shot, which is based on the strain/s they think will be worse this year, if you get that strain with out the shot it will be far worse. So if you think the shot is bad, the flu would have been worse. Of course this vac is only for what they guess as the worse strains this year, it won't prevent all strains. He's convinced me to get them. Anyway, my Doc is a stright talker, an ol farm kid and a hunter, so I trust him more than I would others, oh and of course he's a friend. ;D

My roller has a tang sight and still has the factory rear barrel sight. I replace the factory front sight with a globe sight. I took the roller out back this afternoon. The yard gnome/mushrooms is in the weeds 100yds down the lane. I set the gnome in the middle of the lane. I was not sure at what yardage the tang was set at. I shot off hand 'cuz I forgot ta bring the cross-stix. The first shot I used the rear barrel sight. The bullet furrow was around 50 yds. The next shot I used the tang sight. The bullet furrow was around 160 yds. So, I lowered the sight two "notches" down the staff. I lined up in the middle of the mushrooms. (The gnome is standing in front of the mushrooms. The mushrooms are taller the the gnome.) I squeezed the trigger and heard a "whack". The gnome is now decapitated. ;D The bullet hit right under the eyebrows. Del said he wants pictures but I loaned the camera to my sis-in-law fer Saturday night. I'll post pictures when I get it back. BTW, I raised the sight one "notch" according to Del's recommendation. So, it should hit at 200 yds.

Tysce thinks he wants to build a still, guess I migh help him a bit. ;D Anyone know for sure the legal limit for one for personal use, I think it's 50 gallons a year.

Mornin', folks. I never been over here, so I thought I'd drop in fer some coffee. I'm also excited to share with ya'll my decision to go warthog. I'm not one to walk the fence on issues, I figger if you're gonna do somethin', get right in the middle of it.
There are some drawbacks to my basic warthog setup. I'm gonna be real slow at cas matches requiring more than one shot. And reload costs are pretty serious. I think I can cut costs by using wheel weights. Along with wheels, hubs, odd scraps of iron, etc. The plus side is that I'll never worry about knockdowns, and even the blindest spotter isn't gonna call a miss on a good shot.
This is a pic of my first warthog gun. My father-in-law is looking it over. He's impressed by the caliber but a little skeptical that I'll be able to aim it well. I told him it don't matter. Given my choice in projectiles, close enough is good enough.
Ya'll know any cheap suppliers of powder?

I just got the following tidbit from my state Senator via email. "The DNR (Department of Natural Resources) estimates that there are as many as 1.8 million deer in Wisconsin, which is 70 percent higher than their target population number.

Howdy, pards. I was up and out early. Gunshow, motorcycle show. All around a great day.
Hmmm...gun show in SF...sounds like a plot to capture and relocate good folks. Keep your eyes open Marshal. :D
:D
It was a good show. I picked up some odds and ends that I've been needing. Nothing spectacular but piddly stuff. A friend of mine got a 10 ga model '87 shotgun for $1500. A bit pricey, but a really nice gun so it was worth it. He's a collector, not a CAS shooter.
The motorcycle show was fun. My wife bought a helmet to keep in her sidecar. All the new Harleys look great. The other brands are too over styled for my taste.
-
Welcome to the bus JD. Are you going to be give that new gun an action job too?
Looks like every one had plenty to do today

CAWFEE'S READY!!
Off to West Point to shoot, y'all be good ;)

Morning y'all.
Thanks fer the coffee, Tensleep.
Slim, hope ya get a shot at a deer tomorrow, is it supposed to let up on the snowing ???
No more snow until Wednesday and Thursday. They are talking could be a few inches.
'Tis 23 and clear. "Some sun this morning with increasing clouds this afternoon. High 44F. Winds SE at 10 to 15 mph."
Time to get ready to head out. See y'all later.

42 here this morning supposed to be up about 70 for an afternoon high
everybody going to shoot have a good time
Buck, take care of yerself, hope you can shake it off fore too long.

Morning ya'll.
I was dissapointed in the gunshow yesterday - just not the deals I used to find south of I-10 in Florida,Louisiana, and Texas.
I did come close to getting a 1897 but guy wanted too much and did not like dealing with a C&R - even showed him in the book where it said gun was C&R.
I want one for wild bunch - my great grand daddy's 16 guage 97 has so much family history - I only shoot it sparingly.
Oh well, will wait - maybe Rooster will have some at next shoot for sale.

Planning on making the Pungo shoot and will have badges

Had some folks in here a bit ago from about 300 miles west of here, got some good news and bad news.
The good news, it is now safe for me to go to Keith County Newbrassky, Sherriff Earl Scank (yes his real name) has retired after 30 some years as Sherriff. I can now go to Ogalla if I want since the new Sherriff has not seen my runnin' iron/lid lifter.
Sadly though they report my friend Earl's health is not good, he's in his 70's and a good man, I need to try to get out that way and see if I can look him up and have coffee with him again, he has drank a few cups with me in years past at the S?tate Fair, even if I did, use my runnin' iron to lift up the pot. ::)
-
She has told me I'm gonna have to teach her how to ride horses. I think I can handle that just fine. ;D
Tell her it's easy, just always remember to keep the horse between her and the ground! Oh and always ride on top of the horse! ;D ;D
Hope you feel better Buck!
Yes Del she has put up with me for that long, somebody has to muck the stalls! ;D
-
Congrats LIT - wife and I will celebrate 14 years in about a month or so.
I hear you on the muck stalls comment - been there and still do.
I took apart my Stevens Riverside and srubbed her clean - the bores now would pass as crome lined - somebody took awful good care of her for the better part for the last 90+ years.
Hoping to see how she shoots next weekend at parents farm.
Still waiting for my french 11mm loading kit - will definitely update once I recieve it.

We looked at some of those when we were looking for a dog many years ago. they're very different animals. Not dogs at all. You have to raise and treat them differently than a dog. It's a full-time commitment. The rewards can be great but they aren't for the normal person. They're not your normal beagle-type pet by any stretch of the imagination. I'll bet they were beautiful little guys, though. ;)

BALLAD OF THUNDER ROAD
Let me tell the story, I can tell it all
About the mountain boy who ran illegal alcohol
His daddy made the whiskey, son, he drove the load
When his engine roared, they called the highway Thunder Road.
Sometimes into Ashville, sometimes Memphis town
The revenoors chased him but they couldn’t run him down
Each time they thought they had him, his engine would explode
He'd go by like they were standin’ still on Thunder Road.
(CHORUS)
And there was thunder, thunder over Thunder Road
Thunder was his engine, and white lightning was his load
There was moonshine, moonshine to quench the Devil’s thirst
The law they swore they'd get him, but the Devil got him first.
On the first of April, nineteen fifty-four
A Federal man sent word he’d better make his run no more
He said two hundred agents were coverin’ the state
Whichever road he tried to take, they’d get him sure as fate.
Son, his Daddy told him, make this run your last
The tank is filled with hundred-proof, you’re all tuned up and gassed
Now, don’t take any chances, if you can’t get through
I’d rather have you back again than all that mountain dew.
(CHORUS)
Roarin’ out of Harlan, revvin’ up his mill
He shot the gap at Cumberland, and screamed by Maynordsville
With T-men on his taillights, roadblocks up ahead
The mountain boy took roads that even Angels feared to tred.
Blazing right through Knoxville, out on Kingston Pike,
Then right outside of Bearden, they made the fatal strike.
He left the road at 90; that’s all there is to say.
The devil got the moonshine and the mountain boy that day.

I have always loved the Far Side since it first came out. His view on the idiosyncrasies of life is dead on. For about ten years I had one of those day-by-day calenders until he quit drawing. I then switched to Dilbert, which is also hilarious if you work in an office environment. For 2007, they brought back the Far Side calendar (but with the old comics, of course :(), so that's where I'm getting all of these.

Havin' never worked in an office I don't find Dilbert that funny most times. However of course the English Comedy show "Are You Being Sereved" I find hilarious at times, esp since they are a clothing store. ;D
However there is one Dilbert cartoon I find useful around forum boards and have saved to use as needed. ;D

It's amazing how much Dilbert actually reflects the daily life in the office. You can laugh that your office is so screwed up that it is just like Dilbert's or you could cry from the knowledge that just about everyone else is also drawing similiarites.

Don't know nothin about it, it weren't my fault, yer kin, but not that close! :o ::) ;D
T'wasn't calling you "Dad", just reminding you that you old. ;D ;)
However there is one Dilbert cartoon I find useful around forum boards and have saved to use as needed. ;D
I keep this cartoon available for one of the other forums I visit. Now before Arcey turns his Glock in my dirrection, this is not a slam on those that love Glocks. This is a slam on trolls that stir the pot with their Glock vs 1911 threads.

I love the farside AND I enjoy Dilbert since I werk in a cubical however my ALL TIME favorite is Calvin and Hobbes.

I'm sure the dog is thankful he gets to see the vet and not the plummer. :D And just how far off the beaten path do ya live that they can't seem to find ya?

I know it's a bit early, but changed my sig and Avatar over on the Lab forum to a Christmas theme, since I don't have any Thankgiving theme pictures. Anyway, I have this with a Merry Christmas slurp, slurp as my sig. Kind of cute, a Christmas long ago, in 1991 to be exact.

The dog see's the VET because she has better insurance than I do.... Came home Plummer was here. He said he never heard of this call till this morning. It's not really off the beaten Path, phone company cable companies and plummers and the like don't want you to go somewhere else so they say they'll be right out. Then they look for excuses for not showing up.
The dawg didn't care for the plummer or the Vet as far as that goes.
Stoney I hope the fridge and God are on my side also......no matter what I choose to pack.

Well if he don't get that hot water heater fixed pretty quick, ya can just sic the dog on him :o

It's good to have a clean dog, at least. ;D

well got up to 65 today, I got done with cleaning the turkey houses , came home and split another rick of wood, that splitter will work ya ta death. ;D the weather folks say temps gonna start dropping tomorrow afternoon and cool right on down. 45 for a high on Thanksgiving, not so cold, but what a difference from what it's been. :o
glad ta hear ya got hot water LR, sure ain't much fun without it.
-
OT, that firewood will warm ya twice ;)

yeah it's done it once already, stacking it. ;D sure does make it easy splitting, just pull the handle,

No fancy Thanksgiving Dinner for Delmonico and Rowdy, we're goin' huntin' all day. Now that and not havin' to go to Sil and Bil's is something to be thankful for. Any one who would rater have Hostess Brown and Serve Rolls cause that is what Mom had instead of one of my loads of wheat, white and rye dinner rolls don't deserve my company. ::)
-
all that walking he done, he's probably all legs. ;D
our fieldman was by this morning, he said the plant had processed 2.4 million pounds more turkey so far this fresh season than they had at this time last year.
Del, years ago we used to quail hunt a lot, we've spent more than one Thanksgiving out following them dogs. ;D
-
Years ago when the Uncles were all younger and we all got together, we always went out in the afternoon hunting. They are talking about high 30's some wind and maybe snow flurries tommorow anf Thurs. I have all day off tommorow also. Weather should be just right to get the Chinese Chickens to hold nice, perfect for a young dog in training.
I've talked to a lot of guys over the years who had mighty fine pointers, but had never been around them danged things. Drove em nuts cause they don't play fair and hold, a good pheasant dog tries to trap the bird between him and the hunter, drives some guys crazy though to have a bird flush and come strait at them and then over them, that one is almost a gimme for me. I've had a lot of practice on them. BTW all the BS you read in the gun mags and huntin' shows about how tough they are and how hard they are to kill is BS. Just hit them good and they come right down and stay there.

That's the sad fact of the times. Don't worry. The way Vets are going up in price and all the new and wonderful meds that they are coming up with for pets these days, it won't be long before their bills are as high as ours. Did I ever tell y'all my sister's cat had to have a knee replacement? Her question to the vet: "Cats have knees?"
Stoney Pete, C&H are great. I fully agree with Calvin regarding veggies... and I love his snowmen! ;D

Got back from Junction about 5:45 pm. Still cannot get the VPN to work thru the DSL router. >:(
My parents got here at 7 pm. I'm on my mother's laptop. The wireless is working fine on it. The wireless adapter must be a lot better than the one in my PC.

I've been using my router for a few years with the wireless function disabled. I was going to configure it for wireless to use my wife's laptop and I can't remember the darn password! I always write it down somewhere safe. Too safe, in this case. Sheesh. ??? I'll probably wind up buying a new router. :(

Yeah, but it's an older Linksys, just old enough that it will be noticably slower on wireless. If I'm going to have to re-configure anything, I'll just start with a new one and be done with it. We can hook up with a hard line but people coming to visit will be limited. It's borderline whether it's worth the trouble. It was given to me free by my sister's 8th husband ( :o ) so I really haven't anything invested. If I get a new one, I'll put all the machines on wireless. maybe go wireless on the keyboards, too. The mouse, well, that's a different matter because the mouse I like isn't available wireless and there isn't anything remotely similar. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Wahooooooooo last day of work before Turkey Day!!
We even know that we are off at noon already.
Going to do some Pumpkin popping at Parents farm on friday.
Finally get to shoot that dang Mauser and Stevens Riverside.

Will you can get some good online buys on wireless routers, check out this site, http://www.techforless.com/ (http://www.techforless.com/) especially their scratch and dent buys! Slim they have a couple of PCI card with external antennas for sale that might solve your connectivity problem.
Thanks for the coffee!

29 here, don't have to go to work till 2 on Friday, me and the dawg are gonna go hit the evening shift on some state land tonight and go do the day tommorow at the farm.

The best thing is, none of them would dare do anything about it, except whine. :D There is a rumor going around the store that I'm cold and heartless, the nice little HS girl Gabby has told them I am not really cold and heartless, but I tell her she's wrong. ;D
(OK I'm cold at times and sorta hearless, but only if you deserve it, being in the minority of Old Pfarts and working mostly with kids can be fun at times, 'member when we were young and dumb and the Old Pfarts kept us in line, well it's my turn now and we owe it to them to do this or they'll all grow up to be wimps. An old cowboy tolt me that one day after a kid left my dept that I gave the Old Pfart treatment to.) ;)

Howdy, pards. Thanks for the coffee, Sleep. Been up since 5:30 pounding away on the 'puter again. Just got to a good stopping place.
Thanksgiving is mighty close. We're busy getting ready for ours. Going to spend the day at my sister's in Modesto. We also have guests coming from Holland tomorrow evening. More guests coming Friday. More again Saturday then we'll head down to the school yard to set up our equipment and race the dogs. BBQ and such here after that. Sheesh, it'll feel like a resort around here. :D That's OK, I have a match Sunday and some of them will be coming to watch and drool.
Gonna make apple cheesecake for tomorrow.
Now this I can identify with. Sounds great.

Well, now we know what's on Del's wish list ;D ::)
i' m part of the late shift myself. finally broke down and called the Doc's office this morning to see about an appt. for Fri......Not open Fri., but they said come on in now. So, I went. Bronchitis, got scrips for anti-bios and cough syrup. Also get to go Fri. and get an X-ray of my chest. Since I do have a history of pnuemonia, can't blame him on that one ::) :-\
It's 62 and cloudy here, calling for t-storms and rain/colder after this evening...........Buck 8) ::)

Read one time ya could write yer name with one of the ones with the Cutts in 45 acp, the 38 Supper would just let ya do a neater job of it. ;D

well now that's a cool gun Stoney,
I reckon if ya make it down Slim's way, ya can help on that Bank job he was talking bout. if I was at the Bank I'd give ya money if ya went ta waving that around. ;D

I’ll be fixin’ a good part of it. Stuff I like the way I like it. Ya don’t, more for me. I want left overs. Lots of ‘em.
Hate ta say it but my cousin ‘n her husband can’t make it. Don’t remember the last time they weren’t here. But, it’ll save me a ‘pissed off’. Every year he goes back for seconds, picks over it then says he’s full ‘n leaves it on the plate. ‘Course he’ll have ‘nother shot at it Christmas.
Kids expect ta be here ‘round ten tomarrah. Alex ‘n me’ll go ta the indoor Friday. Maybe the show in Hampton Saturday.

Kentucky Derby Pie Recipe
INGREDIENTS:
Single pie crust, which you can make from your very own recipe. If you're too rushed for that, we recommend those wonderful Pillsbury crusts that you merely have to put in the pie pan and crimp! Find them in the refrigerated biscuit section of the supermarket.
Filling:
1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
2 tablespoons Kentucky Bourbon
1 teaspoon vanilla
Beat eggs with cooled butter. Add flour & sugar. Beat until mixed well. Stir in pecans, chocolate vanilla & bourbon. Pour mixture into 9" pie shell. Bake at 350° for about 30 minutes, or until set. Serve with fresh whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, or both!
-
OK, now I know what it is, I swear if seen it or similar under a different name, maybe Chok-0-late Chess Pie. Maybe with English Walnuts instead.

yep, pecans is the favored, heard about them other kind once ;D
33 here 70 this morning, sure makes it feel cold when it drops that much, got a wood fire a going and feeling good. big birds are 9 weeks old, so they will be good without any heat there.
Ten, at least you'll have plenty of Burbon for the cook, if it only takes 2 tablespoons fer the pie. ;D

That Yarnell is ever bit as good as Blue Bell, 'specially over a good hot blackberry cobbler ;D
-
Yarnell's and Blue Bell are about the only 2 we eat, we've tried them others, but we always go back
whoo, makes me want some of that Blackberry cobbler, Jackie's made a few with Miss Annie's reciepe, never a complaint from anybody that's had some, just want more of it. with ice cream. ;D
-
Since I can't taste them pies til tamarra I'm thinkin' seriously 'bout one o' them cobblers o' Miz Annie's
Shore hope we have some vanilla I'scream.

In tha SOUTH, English walnuts is an abomination! >:(
;D
Not even for gunstocks? ;D
Round here the favored I Scream is Blue Bunny out of LeMars Iowy up by Sue City. Had a 1/2 gallon of their Burr-dough cherry round here the other day, don't know where it went cause I'm the only one round here likes that kind. ;D
-
yea it is. ;D
I'm still full from them Brats we had earlier ;D
-
yea it is. ;D
Gunstocks or Blue Bunny? ???
-
Not even for gunstocks? ;D
SOUTHERN Black Walnut is preferred fer gunstocks, that English stuff is too pretentious. Tha prior statement had to do with eating the nasty nut of tha foreign tree.
'Mericans throwed tha English out fer ah reason.
-
there's a fella up here that saws railroad ties, he comes by the house everyday with a 10 wheeler load of oak logs stacked high, the other day he came by with a load of different looking logs, asked a neighbor about it, he has been saving all the walnut logs till he had a load of them, he said he was going to square saw them and put em in his barn to cure.
says he's always being asked if he has any black walnut wood, so he's stocking up. ;D
-
'Mericans throwed tha English out fer ah reason.
Is that cause they don't speak English proper? ;)
I do wish they would put Black Walnut on these Eye-tall-ion guns, it's hard to make them look right with Juglans regia on them 'stead of Juglans nigra on them. (Biology teacher I had said use the taxonomical name on things, makes ya look eddy-cated and you can always get it from the dictionary.) ;)
Got some Black Walnut hulls to make some stain with and see if that makes the wood on my Sharps look better. ;)
(For some danged reason though, eatin' them gives me a head ache.)

Howdy Y'all,
I have a cooking question fer our Southron Members here. Del can chime in too if he knows the answer. Can anyone tell me what "Baking Mix" is? I got a magazine fer tha Wife that has Southern Christmas recipes in it an a bunch of them have as part of the ingredients the previously mentioned "Baking Mix" it's used in cookie recipes. Thanks in advance an Y'all have a Great Thanksgiving
-
Thanks for all the kind words. I have sold one item and have another for sale as this was NOT in the budget, but I could not leave it there.
Stoney is it brand new? Or new to you? I would like to hear a update on it after you go to the range.
New to me. Very happy with it. Ran great. A friend of mine had one and the thing was a jam-o-matic. I did have a couple jams, but that could be the user. 79 rounds (all that I brought) gone very fast. Gonna cost a few bucks to feed this. ::) The upside is my FMJ reloads run flawlessly. ;D
-
Congrats Stoney. I just love new toys, everybody should have some ;D
Major, usually those magazines have the receipe of what they are refering to someplace in them, there are a couple of different variations of "baking mix" if you search for on the web.
Everybody have a great Thanksgiving!
-
A lot of times you see a basic mix for a variity of recipes and you just add what is needed, call or write them to get their basic mix, oh heck, this is the modern world, E-Mail them. ;D
-
Sheeesh, you been busy tonight! :o ::) Five pages since I was last in.
Nice toy, Stoney. You're gonna need a progressive to feed that thing :o
Got my meds tonight, was surprised, the Doc gave me a coupon for the anti-bio scrip. I used it tonight, total cost for that particular scrip $0.00! ;D Between the coupon and insurance guess it was worth it.
It's still 57 here, but raining. Snow on tap for tomorrow
OT, got a Butterball turkey breast all ready to do tomorrow, made sure it was Butterball. Maybe one of your birds! ;D This one weighed 6 lbs, gonna baste it with butter and some wine to flavor it up somemore. Cats sure got interested in it when I thawed it in the sink today( water method). Had to put the wood cutting board across the sink to keep Lucky out of it( BIG cat, Susie took it in as a stray last month. He was down to skin and bones, she fed him some and then took him to the vet's before I'd let him in the house. Lover kitty, but short on manners. Definately a chow hound).............Buck 8) ;)

Evenin' folks!
I'm looking forward to stuffing my belly tomorrow!!!
litl rooster, do you have enough turkey left over for turkey sandwiches, turkey salad, turkey gravy, turkey Hash, turkey a la King or gallons of turkey soup? ;D

Okey-doke, pards. If I don't get a chance to duck in tomorrow before heading out to Modesto, Happy Thanksgiving. Everybody have a great day and I'll talk to your after. ;)

Really enjoy the quiet this time ah mornin’. Taste tested the green beans too. Need just a tad more salt. Thought the ham would do it.
Browsed thru the news, come across this:

Now, yanno, I ain’t really a bad person. But if I had the means I’d rent a fifty foot trailer under a ‘borrowed’ name. Run down ta OT’s ‘n buy all the live birds I could stuff in it. Go ta wherever they are in NY ‘n leave the trailer, birds ‘n all, in their parkin’ lot ‘bout this time ah mornin’. Just like the ole ‘baby on the door-step’ routine.
Hittin’ the rack again. Much ta do later on. If I don’t see y’all ‘til late, have a wonderful Thanksgivin’.

The first pot of coffee is almost empty and Miss Victoria is up and ready for her morning walk in the park. Most of the food prep is done and the baking is done also. Hope everyone has a Happy and safe Thanksgiving. Working on holidays was a part of my early years in the Military and Law Enforcement. I had my 60th birthday this year and started my 38th in Law Enforcement. I have alot to be thankful, my small famiiy, my health, to have the greatest friends, and still be able to do the job that I love for this long. Life is good.

Happy Thanksgiving to everybody
thanks fer the coffee, sure good this morning, already made a trip down to the barns, feed line running empty, had to switch tanks.
25 this morning compared to 62 yesterday morning, where's that heavy coat. ;D

Just shaved headn' to the shower shortly, then to work. Had the dawg out, it's warm again today, but a Norf wind is blowing. I'm no meteroligist but I'd think in 24 hours it's going to be much cooler.
-
may be gonna change if what we got comes your way, but it's not so bad, just a lot cooler than what we've been used to,
we knew it was gonna have to get a little cooler sometime, we got a neighbor down the road, we always joke you can tell when spring gets here, Malcom always goes around without a shirt, saw him yesterday walking around without his shirt, told Jackie last night, I bet Malcom has his shirt on tomorrow. :o

Happy Thanksgiving from the Group W bench! Hehehe
Me an the wife went to the big, fancy organic foods store and bought us a fresh tom that was raised free range, fed nothing but organic veggies, was taught how to macrame and listened to recordings of whale calls all day. I understand they euthanized the fowl with a painless drug while it was asleep. Good lookin' bird but not cheap by any means. Arcey, I think even them turkey adopters would appreciate this bird's life, if not his death.

Morniin' pards. Thanks for the coffee. I'll check that thread for the lyrics, Del.
Just checking in before to my sister's. You all enjoy the day.

Jeeez, they finally got gone, took Andrea 2 1/2 hours to get ready to go even with her Mother's help, dang I am glad it was a lot easier to get two kids ready when I had them. ;D
I can load my whole cook camp and buy the groceries for 50 people for a weekend in less time than it took that girl to get two kids ready this mornin'. Grandpa and Rowdy got left takin' care of a kid in a swing for a bit, dang Grandpa can sure get better pictures when Mom and Grandma ain't around to bother him. ;D
Have to download and see what I got, I know one is really good. :)

More good wishes from a charter member of the Group W bench ... and a bozo on the bus. ;)
JD - I lost it when ya mentioned the whale calls and teachin' the bird how ta macramé! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Ya know, I might have tolt this before, but in Aug of 1976 I almost became intitled to the Group W Bench on the same charge as Arlo, but the nice State Trooper gave me back my torn samwhich bag he walked back and picked up and said he's let it pass. Wonder what he ever did with our bong he kept? ::)
Anyway, while they were gettin' ready this mornin' my helper and me kept an eye on Lemol in his swing. My helper kept a close eye on him. ;)

Del, it appears that your helper is right good at his job, he's got the whole thing under control. ;D

I'd say he put his nose right on it. They don't get too far out of hand that way...........Buck 8) ::) ;D

This’n mustah been one them Carolina hybrids. Brest was so big the bird looked kindah weird. Fried up real nice. Let it sit a good thirty minutes ‘fore I carved it ‘n still got my fingers burnt. Turnt out good. Little less than half (sliced) left over. Got both drumsticks left for snacks.
Collards were good. No one reached for the salt for the green beans but me.
They had punkin’ pie with Cool Whip fer desert. I had ‘nother bowl of collards.
No dinner this evenin'.
-
I had turkey samwhices out of some of Rita's noodle turkey last night, 'bout to head to the store, I'm thinkin' sausage gravy and biscuits sounds good a bit latter. Some of Arcey's collards sounds good, but I know our store most likely ain't got none but canned or frozen. Might have to hit Super Saver another day, they got all kinds of stuff like that in produce and they have good produce. A small local chain, got IGA's for full service and these bag your own, they have about 75% or more of the grocery bizzness in town, still owned by the guy who started it and his kids. They have good prices in both, treat their customers well, their help well and have a smokehouse that does justice to any small town one, friend of mine has been the boss of it for over 20 years.
-
We only half the breast I cooked here. Might have been one of OT's Carolina type birds here,too. Didn't dry it out neither. Gonna have to let things settle some afore I think of dessert..........Buck 8) ;D

Went and got my 59 cent a pound turkey, a Norbest, Newbrassky grown is all it says. I'll put it in the 'lectric roaster, breast down and it will make good sammwiches, ;D

Just got back from my SIL house, ate so much I can hardly move. Their kids were there as were mine and the grandbabbies, got a lot to be thankful for. I wouldn't mind sittin down and breakin bread with my pards from CAS City, but it's gonna have to wait two or three days until this stuff settles in my belly. Musta been on a your turkeys O.T., dang thing was bigger n some a tha kids. ;D
-
good to hear all that had Butterball turkey's enjoyed them, I know the company sure has been trying this last year or so, since they took over the operations. we can see the difference here on the farm, birds grow off easier and get bigger and just look like big fat breasted birds, more so than what we grew a few years back. overall just a lot nicer bird.
32 here calling for a low of 22, sure doesn't feel nearly as cold as last night with all the wind we had then. ;D
-
We had a good meal of turkey, stuffing, butternut squash, mashed tators, green bean casserole, jellied cranberry sauce, a strawberry salad, and rolls. Had pumpkin pie, pecan pie, and choc-co-late pecan pie fer dessert.
BTW, ...
The PACKERS won!!!!

We're back. Stuffed and happy. The trip was great except for my putting out my knee when my sister's dog jumped on me and knocking the thing down. I was highly unpopular for a while. That blew over after an hour or so and everything got back to normal. Lets see, I had fish, chicken, turkey, dressing, salad and carrot cake. I don't think I need to eat until next week. ;D

We had my folks and my wife folks and my BIL over for Thanksgiving today. Below is my first Turkey that I cooked. I think I did well.

Mornin' pards. Thanks for the coffee, Sleep.
We picked up our guests from Holland last night. More people coming in from LA today and still more from less distand places tomorrow. My wife has a big get-together planned. I'm helping where I can but all the plans are hers so I have it easy. Cook, fill the fridge with beer and such, eat. Ah, life can be simple sometimes. ;D Then Sunday is our local match. The people from LA will be dropping by the match to watch and see if they want to get going in CAS. I'm expecting a good weekend, although I don't know when I'll get much chance to check in.

Black Friday sure got the indoor. Ain’t never seen anywhere near that kindah crowd in the place. Couldn’t walk in there without steppin’ on brass. First time I’ve heard the RM use the PA system to give folks a five minute warnin’ on lane time. When we finished up ‘n walked out, there were eight folks waitin’. Ole Bob'll make a fortune off that place taday.
Alex is just short of thirty but in good shape. Don’t drink or smoke. Works out (free weights) when he can. Good eyes. Daughter’s cookin’ is puttin’ a bit of a gut on ‘im. The boy don’t practice much. Didn’t start shootin’ in earnest ‘til a couple years ago. Ate the Xs outtah two B-34s this mornin'. Only difference twix his targets ‘n mine is I have fewer flyers ‘n mine are closer to the group. Frightenin’ what he’d do with more werk.
Ahhh.... To be young again.......

Wuz he shootin his or one a yours Cuzzin Arcey!

Shot my 34. All he had was his carry stuff for the 23. I had a hunnert loaded for Wednesday but neither of us could go. Got rid of those ‘fore they spoilt.

Had a l’il time ta play with the grand boy this mornin’ without his sister here. One at a time they’re a lot easier. They went visitin’ at his folks yestiddy evenin’ with all the aunts, uncles ‘n cousins. Wore Laney out ‘n she fell asleep there. Alex stayed with her ‘n Ali brought Noah back here. He fell asleep on the one mile ride.
I swear, that boy is gonna think his name is – “NOAH! NO!”
Woke me up just past six this mornin’. They’ve gone ta Wal Mart. Gonna get me quiet shower while the gettin’s good.

I'm up and at work, a bit of snow in the night, roads are durn slick, had to sneak around an accident out on the gravel road. Advatage of livin' on the edge of town, gravel ain't near as slick or busy. Somebody tried to drive a pick-up with a 35-40 camper sideways and ended up hoggin' the whole by-pass, my easy route is closed for a year to build a new overpass over the main BNSF. Needed it though, the one they-re tearin' down was built in 1948. All the years of train fumes a pigeon poop has rotted it out.

Sure makes me feel better( NOT!) Currently 28 now, was 18 when I was up earlier( 4 A.M.). For some reason my wake button activated then, sat up for awhile before I got drowsy again.

My way ah thinkin’s they’s dead birds, stuffed inna plastic bag, inna plastic net. Ya get ‘em out. Fight that silly plastic thing what holds the legs tagether, dig out the neck ‘n the bag ah guts. Skewer the thing. Peanut oil @ 350, 4 minutes per pound.
Hehehehehehe… Heat ‘n eat. Carve the thing, enjoy.
Didn’t have ta raise it. Didn’t have ta snuff it. Didn’t have ta pluck, clean er dress the thing. Cost me less than an hour’s wage last job. I’m happy. Don’t know how they got dead. Death ‘n blood-lettin’ ain’t never pretty. Life ain’t fair for no livin’ creature. Just hope it didn’t die from bein’ eat up with disease er old age. Got faith the folks like OT raise ‘em right.
OT, don’t think ‘NO’ said in any way is within his audible range…………

OT, I did attend OSU and finished up at Panhandle State(Part of OSU). Panhandle State was about 75 miles from my home town in the Texas Panhandle. Went to the Army and came back to the Panhandle and started in Law Enforcement(started in 1970). I moved to the Metroplex(D/FW) in 1972. Been a cop or deputy there ever since.

-
Got plenty ah beer.
Sure wish I did. Twasn't any money in the budget for beer this week. :'( In fact with gas prices as they are and both tanks being low, I may be walking before next pay check. Pats don't play till tonight. >:( Then next week they don't play till Monday night. >:( I hate night games.
Thanks for the coffee. See you all in the funny papers...or the wanted posters at the Post Office.

Mornin all
Thanks for the coffee lr.
Well need to get working in the kitchen to finish putting up the backsplash that is part of the wife's Anniversary and Christmas present. At least I know she won't shoot me before I finish, Oh , did I tell you how much I hate doing home improvement things! >:( :P :-X ::)
-
OT, I never did the bull riding thing. We had a intramural rodeo team back then while I was at Panhandle State. Nowdays they have a college rodeo team with schollorships. Heck, they have won the college national championship a few times. Saddle Bronc is their speciality. The Etbauer brothers, Jessie Bale, Brett Franks and some others have all been on the Rodeo teams there. I was tall and skinny, so I rode bareback horses. That was many years and many beers ago. I started team roping in my late 40's and still do some. All my horses got old and died off. I guess that I'm semi-retired from roping.
-
Oh , did I tell you how much I hate doing home improvement things! >:( :P :-X ::)
Doan remind me......
I got two closets that need to be renovated. ::)

Mornin' I'm up, got esspressoo on. Gotta be to work 11 my time.
Did a Mont Python skit here this mornin' Andrea and her Cuzzin' Sarah went out belatedly to celebtate their 21st birthdays. Tita drove them down and picked them up. This mornin' I got out my big cow/bull bell and rang the heck out of it at the top of the stairs and hollored, "bring out yer dead." Kids with hungovers don't have no sense of humor. ;D
-
Thanks for the Cawfee. Feelin' somewhat better this morning, actually slept fairly well last night( musta been the extra turkey) ::)
Currently 24 and frosty here. The grass crunched when I had the dogs out............Buck 8) ;)

Mornin' pards. Thanks for the coffee, LR. Overcast and looking threatening this morning. Not too cold, though, maybe in the 50's. It should be a decent day.
I'm up and out the door for our local match this morning. Half our guests have gone and more leaving this morning (stopping by the match to se if they want to get interested). The Holland crowd are splitting up, one coming to the match and the other one going off with another friend of ours for the day. I'll skidaddle right after the match is over, I'll know the results in a few days when they email the scores. Looks like a good day for all. Talk to you after the match.
-
Frosty here, 26. My pick-up is parked so the sun should have the widows cleared by the time I have to leave. Dang that bell is fun, might have to ring it a time or two again afore I go to work. ;D
-
Late am pot full of cawfee is hot and ready.
Got a late friday asignment from work that I have to get done today.
Shot with my bubba's yesterday - it was quite fun.
The Mauser's accuracy was outstanding, and the old stevens belched copiuos fire and brimstone!!:)
Hoping to shoot next weekend.

Howdy, pards. I'm back from the match. It was a mixed bag. My new contact lens prescription was good. I could see the sights better than before. I did fine except for picking up a stray piece of lead on my earlobe. It bled as though someone had cut my throat. It was 44° and my hands and ear were so cold I couldn't tell where it was bleeding so I could stop it. I just managed to make a real mess fumbling with it. One of the other shooters finally saw me soaking up a white towl and slapped a bandaid on it to stop the mess. I totally hosed one stage, 4 misses and a procedural. Good thing they can't give you two procedurals on the same stage or I'd have had 'em. ;D Our friends stopped by the match just in time to witness the carnage. I made up for it on the next stage but not good enough to place anywhere noteworthy. They really liked watching. It looks like we'll have another CAS shooter or two soon. One of our guests from Holland came also and really liked the whole thing. It's a good day. ;)

I placed an order with Circuit City over the phone this weekend. It was cheaper than buying from the store. In this day of the internet, I don't understand why people want to get themselves out of bed so early on Friday. ??? There are some "Doorbuster" and store-only deals to be had, but they are becoming rarer and rarer.
I firmly believe my order was screwed up. I called back twice to make sure and I got the same story every time, which doesn't match what was written. This wasn't a surprise, but each time I called, I talked with a different Indian. I'm kind of curious what will arrive in the package. ::) ::)

Did I ever tell you fellers about "Ho-Maid" snack cakes and the kick I got out of them in college?
Well, sadly, someone told them what it means in todays slang vernacular and they are known as "Hom-Made" snack cakes. :(

I need to put on my stickers, seems like when I think about it, It's wet or muddy or frosty or I'm sitting in the house where it's warm. ;D
ya may get one of them new 7 foot screen flat T V's ;D
-
Boy don't I wish! They're coming down in price. I guess I'll wait
a few several more years.
-
I've read a few times lately that they will be coming down some more right after the first of the year. guess I'll wait till the old T V gives up the ghost. ;D
-
I wasn't kidding. I'm crossing my fingers that my TV holds up a while longer.
-
used to be back in the late 50' and 60's if ya had TV trouble you just took your tubes out and went to the hardware stores and put em in their machine and replace the bad one. anymore what ever happens to a circut board usually costs an arm and leg. ;D
-
anymore what ever happens to a circut board usually costs an arm and leg. ;D
Usually cheaper to just buy a new one, but with this push for HDTV they can charge what they want to. ::)
-

you remember when the first circut board T V's came out they had small individual boards that could be replaced seperately, then they went to the big boards. cost of the TV to replace.
-
It's all relative. If you look at the cost of an average TV (which was no where near the size of today's average TV) in the '50s adjusted for inflation, you would see that the consumer is still winning. Maybe not the American worker, but the consumer is. ::)
I do wish things were a little more "renewable". I'd love to have a TV repaired instead of throwing all that plastic into the landfill.
-
I know it used to be you could fix almost anything like that, any more and it just won't happen, cost too much :(
-
It's too bad that we live in a disposable world. It's just so easy to throw away and buy new. :(
-
I can remember when I was a kid and I bet Tensleep can too, people talking about if you'd become a T V and Radio repairman you'd get rich, time I got to that point, ya'd a starved to death trying to repair TV's and Radio's ;D ;D

I do remember that.
I also remember when the "tube tester" was put in the 7-11 and folks started to try and fix their own radios and TVs.
First "transistor" radio I ever saw was tha size if a six pack and had a case and shoulder strap, made it portable. :o
-
I remember what yer talkin bout O.T. Course back in them days the screen was about 8 inches and the cabinet that held it was huge. Took a while for the screen size to get much bigger than 19 inches and by then even with plastics that thing was so heavy you couldn't carry it in to a repair place.
-
I remember the first year in college, I got a portable recorder to take notes off of. it had that strap yer talking about, used cassettees but it was big ;D but everything before that was reel to reel
-
The Broadcast vendors I deal with (Sony, Panasonic, etc) like to say "No user servicable parts inside".
If it breaks, send it to them to repair. Most times they just swap a circuit board. It makes the maintenance techs at the TV stations frustrated 'cuz their job is being eliminated. There is less and less for them to fix.
-
Finally finished my Honey-Do project, here's a couple of pictures!

well it looks from here like ya done a good job. sure has changed the looks of things I bet. ;D

There are still some shops that repair electrical components for industry. However, having them do anything voids any kind of warranty and the manufacturer will often not even touch something that has been interfered with by a third party.

when I was in college, I was in electro-mechanical tecnology, we went on a field trip to Texas Instruments plant near Dallas, they told us what a chip was and showed us one that would do 900 operations, it was about the size of a half dollar, said they thought they could make it smaller and if they could they could make a calculator small enough to fit your shirt pocket. we all just smiled, we didn't have anything then except for the big 10 key calculators that plugged in. ;D
-
Pret snazzy, cousin.
Ain’t no reason ta be concerned with recyclin’ nothin’ ‘round here. The contract folks done mismanaged their company so badly they’re about broke ‘n they been tossin’ recyclables in a landfill anyway.
Do have a nice, blue 90 gallon roll-around can belongs ta them they dump ever two weeks. Got ’em a pretty truck with ‘green’ slogans painted on it. ‘Cept garbage I’ll use it fer anything. All goin’ ta the same place.
Sumthin’ like a TV I’ll call the city’s special pick-up. With the solid state stuff I’ve only lost one since ’89. That’n got fried in a thunder storm.

Evenin' Fellas,
Yesterday, we dined on racoon...wasn't bad, I'm sure it would have been better if we'd had a good receipe (hint hint). It went in the pressure cooker with some taters, onion and carrots.
Finally finished my Honey-Do project, here's a couple of pictures!
Very nice!

Miss Scarlett,
I've ate a few of them coon's in my life,
my aunt used to make the best, she started by soaking the coon in buttermilk or salt water, either will do, seemed to me I liked buttermilk better, leave it over night or 12 hours or more. then she would roast it like beef roast, had a little rack in the bottom of the pot that held the meat and potato's and carrots kinda up above the liquid, she said it preventing the cooked out fat getting back to the meat. she just seasoned it like you would a roast.

Most of ya know I never did nuthin' with a com-pewter till early 2004 when one appeared on my desk at work and I got a quick how to look up product and was told it was hooked up to the Net and I could use it if I didn't abuse it and of course to keep an eye on the CAs boards cause them folks were our customers. One appeared at home a bit later.
Had a problem with it one time, the guy that was floor amanger that night came up to help, nice fella, still a good friend but he liked to pick on the old man. ;D He showed me what I needed to know and kidded me about it. Said I did know a bit about them said they were made of "chips' he said yeah. Told him chips were just millions of transistors on one piece of silly-cone, he said yeah. Asked him if he knew how a transistor worked, nope. got out my pencil stub and a piece of paper and drawed him a ski-matic and 'splained it to him. I then asked him if he wanted vacuum tubes explained. ;D

I went to bed at 2230 cuz the alarm was going off at 0430 not matter how much sleep, or lack there of, I had. Was real glad to see the boys pull out the win. I'm glad this one was close. It will teach them that ANY team can win on ANY Sunday. Maybe they will come more prepared. ::)

It's 40 and really wet here. Nanny, nanny, boo, boo, I've got a four day week here, don't go back until tomorrow :P
I can still remember the tube testers, my first tape recorder was reel to reel, about the size of the old 45 record players. the second one was somewhat bigger, made by Panasonic, also a reel to reel. Those newer flat screen HD's are coming down in price, but not enough for me to even think about it yet.................Buck 8) ::) ;)

….was. Turnt it ‘round ‘n brought it home in one piece.
Rooster, I dunno. Never been in the market. See a bunch at the shows.
The small LED I bought ‘bout a year ago is really nice. Brighter than any of the Mags I’ve had ‘n still have (think I have five). It carries three AAA batteries, just changed ‘em a couple weeks ago for the first time ‘n I use it a lot. If I were in the market I’d go with that technology.

LED is what I am looking for I didn't realize they were so many of them on the market. The one you have sounds like what I need. Don't want one too big. Don't need a pressure switch type

Got this one from an ole white haired gal whut runs the shows. She’s had a table at the last three I’ve been to. She had ‘em eight a piece, three for twenty. I got three, silver for my kid to match her Civic, a red one to match Susie’s Solara ‘n a black one for me. At Scope, she had a competitor ‘n they were goin’ fer five each.
There’s no brand name on it. It’s well done in billet aluminum. Six bulbs. Sealed switch. Gaskets at each joint. Measures 3 ¾ by 1. I’d guess its Chinese or Korean. The only thing I see I don’t like is the foil/cardboard reflector. I loaned it to one of the HVAC installers ‘n it knocked his socks off. Hard as he werked I shouldah give it to ‘im.
Mag offers ‘em now. If I were in a professional position I’d look at theirs first. Mags are kindah the Glock of flashlights.
-
LOL I have several of them Mag lights also, big and little ones. These LED lights seem brighter. Surefire wants $80 for there's don't seem hardly worth it, knowing adventually you'll lose it before you break it. Don't mine paying a little extra for being stout, but thought that was a little too much.
-
I have one of the Mag-Lites with six D Cells, a bit heavy but is great for prowlin' around the farm at night. With the kryton bulbs it will reflect off a stop sign a 1/4 mile away, you can light up a coyote out 200-300 yards away enough the other guy can get the cross hairs on it. I've had it 25 years this spring, I carry it tucked beside me under the edge of the pick-up seat, never know when you may need a
club flashlite.
They have a deal right now you buy a pair of Wolverine boots you get one of those little led ones, should see if they have any extras I could have.
-
Heck, yer wearin’ that blazer. Somebody’ll be hawkin’ what I got at the next show. Get three. Drop one in each pocket then carry a two or three cell conventional Mag for bustin’ heads when needed. My folks ain’t allowed ta do that no more. Sure did werk good while it lasted.
I’m here ta tell ya that’s a lot of light in a little package with the LED thing. But yer right, eighty is way too much.

we've got 3 of them LED lights that we use out in the turkey houses when we first get the birds in, we keep the lights off the first 5 days and nights. they sure work good, ours have the 3 AAA batteries, think they were $6 each down at the Bearing place.
got 3 of the Mag lights too but these LED are so small and handy, fits any pocket
-
That's them, OT.
-
The batteres must side x side x side
-
yeah, they are side by side by side ;D the only problem we had one of the lights, original batteries leaked, I took it all apart and cleaned out the acid and replaced the batteries nothing else, but if I got one I'd check and see if the bateries were little green batteries with chinese writing on em.
I'd change em out to some good ones ;D
-
They’re in a cylindrical carrier, side by side.
Mine had the batteries with funny stuff wrote on 'em but they hadn't leaked. The wimmen have theirs in the cars. Better tell 'em ta check.
-
When Susie was doin' security, she had a four-cell Mag lite. Nasty little noggin' knocker. Carried it in a belt ring probably meant for a night stick. She had a night stick too. She was a good officer, they just didn't appreciate what they had. Made it up to Sargent at a couple of posts she was on......................Buck 8) ::) ;)

well the temp made it up to 40 today, sprinkled a couple of times, supposed to clear out tonight be down to 27 degrees
Jackie cooked up a big pot of Menudo today, had a big ole bowl, good stuff add a few cut up onions the squeezing of a quartered lemon and a few warmed corn tortillas, sure is good on a cool day. ;D

DEAD CHICKENS' REVENGE!!!!!!!
20-mile long chicken fat spill ties up U.S. 13

A Perdue truck spilled chicken fat along a 20-mile stretch of U.S. 13 this morning causing several crashes and a big, smelly mess.
As far as Virginia State Police can tell, the spill started about 6 a.m. just north of Accomac and ended when the driver of the truck stopped at the scales at New Church, said Sgt. Joe Bunting of the state police.
Employees at the scales noticed the slippery, smelly substance leaking from the truck and notified the driver, Bunting said.
Virginia Department of Transportation crews are sanding the road and had made several passes by 9 a.m., Bunting said.
"The Perdue people have remediation teams being mustered," Bunting said. "With each coat of sand, it's getting better and better, but it's going to take many coats of sand."
"It smells bad," Bunting said, adding that the cleanup effort could take most of the day.
A valve on the truck apparently was loose when the driver left the plant this morning, Bunting said.
"There was a window of time there when this truck is dropping his load and these people, they put their brakes on and it's like black ice," Bunting said.
One car hit a utility pole and the driver had to be taken to a hospital, Bunting said. At least three other vehicles crashed, but no one involved suffered life-threatening injuries. Other drivers probably skidded or went spinning on the slippery fat, then went on their way, he added.
The driver, who was headed to Maryland, was cited for failing to properly secure his load, Bunting said. After closing the valve on the truck while it was at the scales, he was allowed to leave.
"Had he not been intercepted at the scales, it would have been a bigger mystery," Bunting said.
Many of the drivers who slipped or skidded probably didn't realize what the substance was, Bunting said.
"Thank heavens, you know, the time of day that it was, that we were able to get on top of it," Bunting said. "VDOT got right out of here on top of it. Otherwise, it probably would have been a whole lot worse."

Mornin' Fellas,
Thanks for the Coffee. (It's good enough to capitilize this morning.) ;)
I'm up, got coffee on, who broke CaS-city, come on, someone fess up. ::) T'was a slow night at work, had to be there till 9 and no Cas-City.
It's no fun when you can't check and see what kind of trouble yer pards are getting into is it? :D
We have some of those LED lights. They are great. WW and my Dad have one that straps over their baseball cap, or just on yer head. I don't think it would fit over a Cowboy hat but it might..would have to check it out. It's nice because it's hands free. WW uses it to work on the cars mostly, dad does his outside chores with it....wouldn't be no good for defending oneself unless you blind someone with it. We found it in a sportings good store. I'm thinking it's something the mountain climbers used at the time but we've had them for a while now. If I remember right they were around $20 or so.
Arcey were there alot of crazies on the road yesterday? I heard it was cyber monday and everyone was supposed to be shopping from their computers. :D
Stay safe!

Real nice, Tom. Where'd ya get the tin?

It's not really tin Slim, it's a plastic that has been coated to look like an antiqued tin. You can find it at Lowes or Home Depot. You just have to be careful and not install it in an area where it could be exposed to high heat. I can't begin to imagine how much of a pain tin would have been unless it was small squares. This wasn't easy since I had to flex it into cetain areas and make sure I had it just right before the adhesive grabbed it. Next time, if there is a next time, it will go in before counters and cabinets and other obstructions, I'm getting too old to do this sort of stuff! ;D
-
It sure looks like the old tin. Good job, pard.

Pretty girl, I’m gonna tell ya. Thinkin’ some of the best drivers in the whole wide werld are here. If they weren’t this place wouldn’t be nothin’ but one big nasty pile up.
Unfortunately, we got a handful of discourteous, selfish, cell phone usin’, inattentive, ‘I pay my taxes I’ll drive anyway I want’, bunch of jerks thrown in to foul it up for everyone else.
Ya never know. Went ta the bank earlier. 45 mph zone, four lane, divided. Usually, in traffic, yer lucky ta get ta 35. Little traffic. I was runnin’ 55 ‘n some fool passed me like I was tied to a post.

Well, here I are, finally. Took up most of today trying to get that durn router to work. guess what............it ain't hooked up now. Dang computer refuses to recognize it and it keeps coming up as no internet connection. We spent about three hours messing with this thing with no results ::) >:(
Today behind our place was deer central. 11 in the morning and I had a 6 point buck and 4 does back here. Never seen that big boy around here before. last time i took the dogs out this morning, I spotted him laying down in a brush pile about half way up the bank. Think there was a hunter over on the other side of the hill on the private land back there. Hope he had permission ::).....................Buck 8) ::) :-\

well, been busy running most of the day picking up parts here and there, got the temperature monitor that telephones when it gets too hot or cold in the house.
went down to toy store in Russellville, handled all the guns they had got since last time I was there, didn't find but 1 or 2 that I couldn't live without ;D but then I came around and didn't bring any home. looked at all of em single actions up to the newest black rifle they had, quite a little rig, looked like it'd be fun to play with if you could keep it fed. :o ;D thie one I looked at had a halographic sight.
Picture below
The FN P90 submachinegun is the companion piece to the FN Five-SeveN pistol. Both are chambered in 5.7 mm. The P90 uses a double stack, 50 round magazine that runs the length of the gun. Before a round is chambered it's rotated 90 degrees through the circular part of the magazine. Total length of the bullpup design with a 10.4 inch barrel is just 19.7 inches.

well looks like we're back on the air.

Got it back 'fore it was too late. Where's a good place to get a tactical light?
LR, Check out the Sure Fire lights, http://www.surefire.com/maxexp/main/co_disp/displ/pgrfnbr/16/sesent/00
they're one of the best out there, Real bright light, great warranty, only downside id the cost of the batteries and replacement lamps. I get 45 minutes of run time on mine, but it stays bright until the battery goes dead, no dimming, just stops werkin. I have the older 6Z Combat light and a Nitrolon that was 1/3 the price at around $35.00. Some of the LED units are pretty good, but the ones I've seen just don't have the light output of the Sure Fires. Hope this helps

went to a prison riot in 1973 with the Oklahoma National Guard, we were sitting outside the 12 fence looking in, the generator went off for maybe 10 seconds or less, when it came back on there were a couple dozen of the prisoners climbing the chain link fence.

I pulled outta work yesterday and my car started shakin' all over the road. I broke the rocker arm passenger side rear tire. It happened whilst I was on my way to Lowes to buy one of them thar LED flashlights. I thank God that it happened on a hardly used road instead of the highway I was on twice last month. It happened on a warm sunny day at 1pm in stead of 4am. It happened whilst my kids were NOT in the car. Yeah I could complain that it happened, but the car is 14 years old and thing break...that life. God was looking out for me and I'm greatful.

I'm only repeating the term used by the tow truck guy. The part that broke is similar to a tie rod only it's the rear tire so it's not called a tie rod. When I showed to to the tow guy he called it a rocker arm. Guess he was full of it. ::)
I know very little about cars. That's why I have a trustworthy machanic. ;D He's saved me big money because he always calls with options before he does the work. For example. The blower on our van stopped working on speeds 1, 2, 3, and 4. Now it has 5 or off. If it was just the resistor the part is $40. It turned out to be the entire unit. No after market available and the new unit is $300 plus $40 for the resistor. He called and told me the bill would be $500 for parts and labour. I did not have the money. He put it all back together. $0. Other local garages would have charged the $75/hour labor just for diagnosis.

OT, I remember that riot at Big Mac. It is a shame that they had to quit using the old part of the original Territorial Prison. That's the way prisons ought to be today. I always enjoy seeing that place and remembering how things were. I am planning on going back up there and attend the prison rodeo. They quit the one at Huntsville about 30 years ago.

Cleaning out some stuff yesterday came across a "DigiLight."
'Bout 4" long, carry case (belt type), lanyard cord and some spare rubber O rings for it. Really heavy metal case. Have no idea where it came from, says "Carolina Cup" and IDPA on it, could have been a gift I suppose.
Took it out last night when I let the dawg out, sure does punch a hole in the dark!
This one has the switch on the back end. Powered by 2 short 3v Lithium batteries.

TL, I always enjoyed going to the Prison Rodeo, they always put on a good show. that was the first Rodeo that I took my wife to. first one she had ever seen. almost every year we talk about going, just haven't had the chance
saw a lot of down to the prison riot, it always amazed me how much of it burned and how much the Prisoners destroyed.
best show of the whole thing was watching a German Shepperd move the violent criminals from one yard to another, they had tried threating them with guns, teargas and anything else to make them move, they wouldn't, they brought in that German Sheppard, had a big chrome studded harness on, he made em move. he did everything that trainer told him perfectly, one of em didn't move or was slow, he got a hold of a leg or butt and they moved right on. ;D they knew his were'nt just idle threats, he meant it,

Mornin' got to yell at two folks already this mornin' durn it felt good. ;D Got a call on the house phone, checked, not an 800 or such, some bussiness, thought it might be something for Rita's side bizzness. Said hello twice, was going to hang it up, when a lady came on, asked for Mr. Carman, nope not here, can I help you.
Well she said she wanted to talk to him about a product for his septic tank. I then told her I screen my calls that way and asked her why in the H377 I would want a product for a septic tank when I was hooked up to a city sewer and was not quiet or nice about it . She said sorry and hung up.
Well guess what, I had a number, called it, got a differnt lady, receptionist I guess, asked her if there was anyone there but idiot tellamarketer. She said yes, why, told her the danged tellamarketers didn't have enough brains not to bother me when I didn't even have a septic tank. She said they didn't mean to bother folks. Well then I really went off on her, told her the only thing I hated worse that a tellamarketer was a liar, and anyone who did tellamarketers wanted to bother folks so that made her a liar. Anyway my name is off their list and I told her I marked the date and company in my little book and if they called again I would turn it over to the FCC. No book, but have never had one call back that I told that too.
Did I ever meantion I hate tellamarketers? ;D

Whatever, Stoney. Glad ya didn’t wreck it ‘n hope the repair bill is reasonable.
The dogs were very good at movin’ people. Rarely did anyone want to stand up to ‘em. We’d just start walkin’ that way with ‘em on leash ‘n they’d disperse. There were times you couldn’t get ‘em outtah the truck before folks would scatter. All ya did was drive up. Most of the bangers couldn’t read very well but they understood the ‘K-9’ decals on the Ramchargers.
Course that was in the seventies when ya could actually use ‘em ‘n get a dog-bite without the lawyers goin’ sterile.

I drove a wrecker a few times, worked in a shop in Wahoo that had one, made a few runs when the boss was gone, not a job I'd want to do full time, never had to haul any real messes. Was goin' to work one time, snowin' like we should have stayed home, got within a few miles of town, came to where the traffic was stopped, deputy said there was a car off the road, saw the bosses wrecker and got out to help. Dumbarse had spun out, left the car in the road, wheels turned and locked, snow about knee deep. Owner no where around, a Torino. We started to get the dollies out, the Deputy said don't bother, takes to much time, we needed the road open. He said he'd take the reponsibility, we hooked up to the front and the boss pulled er in that way. So danged icy we didn't end up rippin' the park out. Fool sobered up, paid the bill and drove er away. ::)

Oldest had a battery die. Called AAA. They sent someone out to jump it so she could get it back here. Hooked the cables up backwards ‘n blew the alternator. Couldn’t prove it. AAA couldn’t/wouldn’t tell me who they sent. I just went ‘n bought an alternator ‘n a battery at the same time. We don’t have AAA anymore.
Funniest one I ever saw was a dude that fell asleep on an overpass just outside of the Amphib base and ‘perched’ a year old Dodge pickup in the trees. Maybe ten to fifteen feet off the ground. Wasn’t so high he couldn’t jump outtah it. Wrecker driver called his boss. He looked it over then we all talked about it. Told the boy a crane was needed. He fessed to not havin’ insurance ‘n couldn’t pay for a crane. Asked ‘em to do their best.
Operator climbed up the tree ‘n managed ta chain up the front end. Truck landed nose first. Windshield come out. Truck looked like a stock car that went in the fence head on. Really didn’t look all that damaged before that.
My troop cut ‘im a break ‘n only charged ‘im with reckless drivin’ ‘n no insurance.

One of the guys who lived in Wahoo went out on a wrecker call one time, drunk drove an El Camino off the road, crawled out the window and went fer help. Vince got the call, went out, looked it over and went home fer a chain saw, wedged tight between two trees. ;D
He did another one one Sunday, couple a drunks with a ol' Inny PU in the creek, I guess some of them used just a pump for the steering, don't 'member the details on them but won't steer if the engine ain't runnin'. The worked on it, got the hoses and steering backward and decided it was cool to have the steering wheel work backwards. Yep, was goin' too fast on a curve, slide in the gravel and corrected the wrong way. ::)
Seen a lot of rollovers up there on gravel roads, they pump Platte River gravel and use that, like marbles at times. Seen a lot of those 70's Ford F-250 4WD's went upside down, the ones they called Highboys.

Rooster, I wish I had all my notes again. I threw ‘em in the fireplace when I quit.
We had a fatality one night. Some drunk tried the curve where Tidewater Dr. turns into City Hall Ave. way too fast. Homicide usually handled those but they were busy so my Auto Theft pukes got stuck with it. The department has a well trained fatality team these days workin’ outtah traffic - where it should have been to start with.
Anyways, it was a Fairmont. Turned up on its left side ‘n slid roof first inta a concrete post. Busted the unibody floor pan. Ole wrecker driver come out ‘n hooked up the front end. Picked it up ‘n the ass end stayed on the ground. Tried the rear end, that didn’t werk either. Only thing keepin’ it in one piece was the roof.
Back then few had roll backs, they all got ‘em now. Dispatcher finally found a Chesapeake company that had one ‘n was willin’ to come out ‘n get the thing. Totally against the rules but we had to get it outtah the street ‘n no one ever said a word about it.

The email notification of new posts is working better now.

You turned that on!?? I'd never get any rest with all the computer constantly yelling "Mailtruck!" at me. ;D

Howdy, pards. I just got in. I tied earlier but had problems and then had to log off and go somewhere. Tried then again later on but had to log off and head out again. Sounds like the forum was having problems, too.
Our guests are leaving tomorrow early. More accurately, I get to run them up to the San Francisco airport at 3:30 so they can catch a plane. I don't envy them at all, they leave at 8:00am here and arrive in Amsterdam at 7:00 in the morning. That's almost a day and a half enroute. Then I need to do some inspections on the way home and after we get back. I may still be scarce tomorrow, too. OK, I suppose I should go get some rest. Asta, pards.
-
Marshal Will, that's 7:00 AM Amsterdam time. They are either GMT or GMT+1. The flight won't be that terribly long, but their bodies will be thinking it's still time to be in bed. ;D
I've hit a couple hiccups tonight, but besides that everything's workin' fine.

OK, I guess I threw in an extra few hours, there. They will be 5 1/2 hours from here to DC and then 8 1/2 to Amsterdam plus the changeover time in DC. They'll be about 16 hours enroute plus customs at the end. They'll be home in time to eat breakfast.

If they flew west instead and timed it right, they could fly into tommorow and then back to today. Wheres Dakota Dan when you need him. ;D

ARBUCKLES!!
Who wants tha peppermint stick?

Early bird gets the pepermint stick. ;D Thanks for the Cawfee.

Hope to see some of my VA pards the second weekend of Dec for some RO-I and RO-II training.

Well there ain't no Jingle Bob's sold at any of em. They're mail order catalogue. All but King Size is for women so your other halves may know the names. One Plus and Woman Within (fka Lane Bryant) are for women with more to love. The metrostyle (fka Lerner), chadwick's and jessica london are for the rest. I just print the reports so I really don't have much to do with that side of the business.

I've been thru that airport twice. The first time was about 1994. Had a conference in San Fran. The second time was about 2002. Visited a branch office in Hayward.
'Tis 10, sunny and blustery. High of 24. I think winter has arrived. ::)
BTW, my bell's clapper fell off last night. I don't know if I have a ladder long enough to reach to but if back on.

Put the ladder in the back of your truck......................

Nice out. Upper end of the fifties. Got clouds but they ain’t leaked yet. Wish they would.
Lerner’s. Seemed we used to have several of their retail stores ‘round here. Had one downtown near where the indoor is now. One at Southern, near Tom. One at Pembroke near me. Wonder what happened to ‘em.
Slim, why don’t ya just strap the spikes on ‘n climb right up the pole. Save diggin’ a ladder out.

It's really a zoo. That place gets worse every year. More traffic and a terminal that is suitable for a 1980 work load.
Stopped on the way back and picked up an ID Vault for passwords. Good idea these days with all the ID theft going on.

We just got back. The girls got off an hour late but should still have 45 min between flights in DC. Maybe life will get back to normal around here. Of course, it was nice having guests. It gave the dogs something to think about. Two more targets for treats. ;D

Don’t wanna be famous either, Slim.
Got some good news fer a change. The youngest has been it one school since last week. One the PE teachers there got herself hurt ‘n’ll be out the rest of the season. They have approval to keep Andi there for the remainder.
Ain’t happy the other gal got herself hurt. Am happy my kid ain’t gonna be runnin’ all over the city for awhile. Happy the phone ain’t gonna be ringin’ with automated ‘Sub-Finder’ calls at 0530 hrs.

Arcey, glad for Andi and you that she got on steady for a while.
been a pleasant day here today up in the 50's got the rings built in the second house and changed the feed tank boot, it's been leaking some feed out when it kicks on, got the old one took off and could see the reason, part of the lip around the edge that's hid from sight was rusted out and had a good sized slot.
gotta put our sheets of insulation in the sides of the houses tomorrow, anything to save some of that heat from going out into space, should take a couple of hours per house.
had some pork roast, boiled potato's and some brown sugar glazed carrots. sure was tasty. ;D
-
Got in here late, pewter problems at home. Stoney I hate to tell you but to get the peppermint stick you have to grind the whole bag fer the cook. BTW if one wants Arbuckles but don't want to pay the price, find a local roaster that does a medium roast on a Brazilian Coffee, it's often a lot cheaper, course I carry it, at $12.98 a bag it's not bad, but shipping is almost $9.
BTW the ARIOSA on the bag stood for Abuckles Rio South America. ;)
Glad she got something steady, sorry she had to get it that way. Looks good that Rita may get on permanant at the state after the first of the year. The dept wants here real bad, but the polly-ticks gettin' that way are a bit of a problem, but it looks like it may work.

Ya could dip them in a bit of egg white and sugar, me I can't tell the differance and The Mill has it for about $8 a pound. ;)

Boy, looks like it's gettin' deep in here ;D
Arcey, glad for Andi. It can get old getting shifted from pillar to post. when i started at the garage, I was a sub. always on different busses and learning the clients took more time than you were there.
got the front end of my truck aligned today. Finally done with it, except for the tires now. that may take some time as the least expensive in an aggressive tread is about $240 for the pair ::)
it's 28 here now, and really windy..................Buck 8) :o

Arcey, I got another link to pass on to your son in law/scientist, it might interest him, it's another site about the undersea habitat that my friend is setting up. he keeps us informed on what's going on. he called us on Thanksgiving day and spent an hour telling me what all had been going on. sounds interesting, but I don't know about living there all the time. ;D
Jackie and I have an invite to go spend a night in the habitat with him if we can find the time. it would be fun I'm sure.

You can't just tell the kids to take it outside, either. I think it would be really cool, though. In warmer, shallow waters, you could have quite a view from your picture window if you were on the top floor of a structure. You could look out and see fish instead of birds going by.

It should be pretty nice, I believe he told me it was going to be suspended in 45 feet of water at about 25 foot, I guess they've got it all figured out, just need to build it, he's worked for NASA the last 16 or 17 years, for awhile he worked on how people would breath if they ever went to Mars.
sometimes when your talking to him he gets in a little over my head, so I bring the conversation around back to guns and shooting and get him down to my level and then start again. ;D

well ya know what they say bout that curiosity, killed a cat some where ???

Poor kitty. :(

Better be sure and remind TC bout that in case he goes to getting curious ;D

He's getting older and losing his curiosity. He still gets excited if he sees a bug, but noises outside don't pique his interest anymore and he just looks at me like I'm an idiot if I bring out the laser pointer.

Wicked Wayze waits til it breaks and is on the way to the garbage..then he drags it into the garage and tears it apart to see what the insides looks like. He has fixed a few things. Garage looks like Frankensteins lab for cars and radios ::)
Looks like there is alot of good news floating around this morning regarding jobs. Congratulations.
I am glad I didn't find a link to youtube for Slim falling in the snow just for the clapper.
Will be doing alot of cooking today. Mom & Dad will be here for dinner, making beef empanada potpie for supper. Also getting baking done as I will be getting togeather Sunday with freinds and we are donating baked goods to our local Hospice.

Howdy, pards. Thanks for the coffee, Sleep. 36° and clear on the porch this morning. The cooling trend actually seems to be as forcast ::)
My new assignment keeps me in DC, if it works it will revolutionize how parts of the fed respond - can't say much more than that for now.
Sounds like it could be most interesting. Hope it's successful for you.
'Tis 10, sunny and blustery. "A mix of clouds and sun with gusty winds. Cold. High 19F. Winds WNW at 20 to 30 mph." Snowed 3/8" last night.
Certainly cooler than our cooling trend. good pics, expecially the one with the birds. 8)

34 and sunny here. At least the wind died down some.
Been doing double duty since yesterday afternoon. My driver's sick, and I've got to coach the sub driver as well as watch the indians. almost lost my voice yesterday :o Don't think hand signals would work very well...............Buck 8) ::)

Went by the range. With that crowd a couple free hot dogs weren’t werth it. Range fees waived for the day. No gun rental charges. It’s drawn some folks.
Had a surprise when I walked out. Heard a motor runnin’ outside this mornin’. Figgered it was Bob, my neighbor. Heard a leaf blower too. He ain’t got one them, he sweeps. Didn’t think nothin’ of it though.
Get my junk together. Step out in the garage ‘n push the door opener. Some stuff in the truck I wanted ta take out. Lit a cigarette. Went about my business. Ready ta leave Back the truck out ‘n notice someone had done the front yard. Not a dead leaf anywhere. Grass all cut ‘n edged.
Hope Susie has a good explanation for it when she gets here. I didn’t hire anyone.

Slim, them turkeys are probably out there trying to hitch a ride somewhere where it's warmer, did yer mom and dad gone back to Arkansas?
45 here light rain on and off, we got the insulation put in the curtains of the turkey houses, we have to do that from the outside so we're sitting here by the wood stove trying to dry out and warm up. ;D
kinda thinking a good BBQ dinner would warm us up a lot better. gotta wait till 4, they close up from 2 to 4, give the waitress's a little break, take a siesta or something and then again, Brown's catfish down to Russellville don't sound bad either. but it don't open up till 4 either.
when Jackie and I moved here we wondered why so many places closed from 2 till 4, now we've just kinda grown accoustomed to the way things work here, it's a lot slower pace than most places, don't nowbody get in to much of a hurry, if someplace don't open right on time, they'll be there in a little while and when closing time comes, they'll wait for ya if you call and tell em you need something, most of the places around here where we buy poultry supplies will come down to their store if you call em at home after hours or on the weekend and spend however much time is needed to get ya running, never mumble a cross word,
feels kinda like home. ;D

OK, got you in my thoughts and prayers on that.
It's going nippy here. Probably get below the temps last night. As ong as the sun is out, it'll be tolerable. We may have rain coming Mon or Tue. It's already raining in Monrovia (kinda near LA by an hour or so), according to our friends there.

Slim, The Outfit that you new hat came from in Fort Worth is still there. They have moved to one of the Suburbs of Fort Worth(Haltom City, Texas). I don't have any of their felt hats, but have worn several of their straw hats. I went to the Rodeo at Cheyenne, Wyoming and bought a hat from them at the Rodeo. I didn't know that they were selling hats up there. I asked the guy for a hat in my size. He handed it to me and I looked at the sweat band and started laughing, he asked why I was laughing. I showed him my Tarrant County Sheriff's ID and he laughed too. Fort Worth and Haltom City are in Tarrant County. Enjoy the hat, those kind and hard to find.

Good Luck Slim! <fingers crossed fer ya>

Good luck Slim, finally got a chance to get on, been puttin' stuff away and had a customer pick up a special order and that took a bit since he's also a good friend. Had his fake Thompson out with the drum on it when he came in, but we put it back in the box for him to leave the store. Told him to stop by at 9pm and jump in the back of the pick-up and we'd curise O St (Oh, not Zero ;D)
and see what happened. ;D
Oh Terry and I took some pitures with it with us and the drum on, might be a few days afore I get them up. Lookin' at a new connection at home, both cheaper and better.
Worked on a quilt most the day for Rita's cuzzin' for Christmas, one of them with some special memories in in. Flannel top, a late uncles flannel shirt that hun in his mudroom for years worked in and some from some of Rita's old flannel nighshirts worked in. He's been a big supporter of her through this. You can get a lot of quilt pieces out of a 5X one. h and a couple pieces left over from mine and some other odds and ends.
BTW Labradors are really lousy at tyin' notes in quilt ties and they don't have enough sense not to run with sissiors. ::) Like puppies, but will be glad when he reaches two and settles down a bit more, he's getting really good, but new things like that sill seem to be play. ;)
Mom had to have Teddy, her 13 1/2 year old Rat Terrier put down last night, knew it was comin', pretty hard though, Dad got him as a companion when he retired and really was Dad's dog, Teddy has had a hard time of it since Dad passed on. :'(

Best foot forward, Slim ;D
one of my indians was on the warpath this afternoon ::) >:( Kept me hoppin' trying to keep the sub on the route, and his little butt in the seat :P Finally had to park beside him and keep the red release button covered with my hand. Just about lost my voice again ::)

I was totally lazy, beans & corn with mashed potatoes. Hit the spot and had very minimal clean up.

I started it before I went back in for the second run. Put the noodles in when I got home. It simmered while I was gone, and then i raised it to a boil when I got back to do the noodles. This was my first try at chicken soup. Now all's I got to do is get my vegatable beef one in order.................Buck 8) ::) ;)
