Tex_77 Oh he lifted them alright. One at a time to put them on the barbell. lol

Jonathon yeah it’s weird to have big text icons there that would be assumed to be linked buttons to what they describe but they aren’t.

RafterW HAHAHA! I must admit that it does seem that the wind storms have hit while I was elsewhere. Does that help?

Austin That was a graciously spoken speech for a team that was defeated.

cdub2007 Someone has to win, I know you are against some not-so-great competition (at least with me and a few others) but continue and you’ll get the Gift Card!

I took my daughter up to the Kansas State Fair today and spent several hours walking around looking at different vendors of different kinds of equipment. (No meat processing vendors seen while there.) I had a thought of what an exhausting nightmare it would be for 10 days there but also thought, I would totally seek out a Walton’s booth if they were there. I think one of the best locations would be close to the Grand Champion steer and hog and on the last weekend of the fair, they could do some live demos on how to make sausage and hamburger for some of the city folk! 🤔😉🤣🤣🤣

Jonathon Should have tried to barter with them for some jerky or sausage for the repairs. I just put two axles in my 91 Camry for $200 and 2 hours of my time, also pulled the distributor and put a new seal on it. The shops are way to high anymore and I can still turn wrenches.

I ran interior trim crews at the time. We had two houses to complete in the same neighborhood… a very busy neighborhood for construction. An hour after the towers fell we were the only ones left in the subdivision. Everyone else packed up and went home. We might have left too but it was nearly two hours back home during normal traffic and the radios were saying traffic was backed up everywhere. I will not live long enough to forget that day.

Jonathon Sounds like a lot of fun, wish I could make it to that bash.

Jonathon That is not good. I used to be able to go 2-4 days straight without sleeping or leaving work to get a critical project done, either design or hands on, or reports on critical projects. I can’t do it anymore, but also sleep too much in my opinion anymore & don’t get enough done any more either. We are glad you got a decent night’s sleep finally & don’t keep doing that either, it is not good for you.

Really didn’t need to see that again. I’m still conflicted whether to laugh or to be scared.

Jonathon I saw a jeep with Kansas tags that had shark stuff all over it. I thought it was funny someone from Kansas obsessed with sharks but then I remembered you and it made sense.

Jonathon who made the cabinet?

Kurt Ratzlaff It is fun. Enjoy getting out with friends, great way to introduce young people to the sport if they don’t get frustrated with missing. I have been out with a lot of friends and their kids, we try to seperate them with an adult for safety and teaching. A lot like taking a kid fishing and starting them out on perch or sunfish, usually lots of action and you don’t have to be getting up at O dark thirty.

Like the articles and how-tos in it. Now if the temp will drop out of the 90-100 range so we home guys will feel like making meat products again…

Bob Stehlik No, That’s Gig Em Fingers! TAMU

Jonathon congratulations on a great trip! That is on my bucket list to go that far north. I have been to Thessalon, Ontario and caught many walleye and pike on a small lake there.

I retract my statement, Austin already did it!

YOU NEVER GO WRONG WITH COLD WEATHER GEAR

kyle Farmland foods is in Wichita? Must be a while ago? 10,000 lb an hour for the grind…my god. How they make the machines was cool too! Thanks for sharing

huntincrazyj looks good. Congrats

Take care and get well soon. Try a little Jim Beam Red Stag and honey,soothes the cough.

tompayne the post was deleted, that’s why you got that message

OleSmokey I have tanned a few hides, no seriously, mainly deer, coon, & fox, but nothing like what you are creating. That is all beautiful. Your work is very nice & something to be proud of.

I also bought one after that podcast. It’s awesome product.

WVTim Pretty nice Father’s Day gift.

We’ve had some really decent rain this month and I saw a report last night saying we are still down 4.5 inches from the yearly average. Doesnt seem as bad as last year but still pretty dry here as well.

bocephus I don’t know how that happened & they would have been some good ones as I did that regularly every year. I think it may have been because we ended up moving with a fast transfer with a drawn-out move. Unfortunately, it looks like two of them lost their seal as although they seem sealed, the lid dimple pops up & down. On the third one, it is still completely sealed. I wish someone could tell me the stuff was still good & safe & would have turned to brandy anyways, without fermentation, etc. but I think that would be a good stretch of wishful thinking.

Thank you to all that have or are serving! Everyone have a safe and enjoyable weekend. In remembrance of those who gave it all and are not here with us this weekend. Be safe!

Jonathon good to know, are the dogs by chance still home? 🙂

Jonathon Very Nice. Congratulations on a great win!

As I run another fishing web f-o-rum I’m interested in how you are combatting this, seriously.

Jonathon I did see you were getting it pretty good. We had a rain yesterday and cold. Not a good day to do snack sticks but had to get it done.

ND Mike Yeah, we are thinking more like favorite lists and things like that, nothing divisive at all…you know other than team blue/team orange/ Camo and Grey

GWG8541 I haven’t broke it in yet. I got it on gunbroker for $285…hard to say no to that! It was used but it looks like its only seen a magazine or two, I found 18rd magazines on the aftermarket and purchased two.

jcuthbe Lol, I use 2 hands.

JoeB Lol no, no drinking! Steven Winscot used it yesterday and cannot smell anything when applied. Also, no ticks on walk yesterday, going to use it again today and will let everyone know.

mjlexus You are very welcome… It is what it is… Life is good

Jonathon Such a tragedy! look what happens when I don’t log on for a few days.

Jonathon I have never seen Harry Potter, so I wouldn’t know! Just thought 5000 posts was amazing.

Bob Stehlik Biting my tongue, thanks for the perfect response!

johnsbrewhouse beautiful pups. Congrats to you

It may be one of those deals if NoChanceAtAll ESPN #… Does not claim it in a certain timeframe, the prize goes to #2 which looks like old smokey. You may have to set a deadline.

Well April fools is just about over, lol!

gus4416 Congratulations and thank you for all your great input.

GWG8541 don’t know how I ever missed this post. I remember that day very well. Great post and very well said. Thank you my fellow American.

processhead they are great looking guns with a hefty price tag. I have a 3 in 250 chance to win the one outdoor mentors are giving away.🤞.

mrobisr congrats to you sir 👍. Well deserved.

Steven Winscot I believe it! We sure would like to do that, especially some of these critters we have been talking about & used to do that, much, much more. Unfortunately, we don’t get the opportunity as much these days, sadly to say.

Austin I can’t root for Texas because my wife went there and I went to TTU, so gotta keep her on edge!!! HAHA

WVTim said in Hooray today:

Jonathon you must realize that your only a little dumb. If you were really dumb you would be too dumb to know it. That’s one of the signs of really dumb people. They think they are brilliant

Wholey Smokes Batman! Brilliance and Funny!

AdamusLignus The ones that I have seen had bamboo double layered & crisscrossed & palm fronds laid over that. I have seen some used that some company sells. It was bout 15 - 20 or so ago on a project. I keep thinking I some homemade too, that looked pretty good. I don’t know why maybe you could not just use the bamboo put in place first vertically so to say, over purlins or horizontal directly over the rafters, then another layer crossed over in the opposite direction, then a final layer vertical (from gutter edge to ridge). Then dried in place & sealed with something like CWF or something. I would not use it for the main house, but for a gazebo or something it would probably interesting, fairly long lived, inexpensive in your case, & fairly watertight with lots of ventilation. I suppose if you wanted them to carry off more water faster, you could split the final layer so it would be like trough, so to say.

Jonathon I read about this when this happened. Tough kids and wrestlers are just built different.

Idaho Smokey I have several frames and 20 barrels. The 357 Herrett and 45-70 are my favorite for hunting. 20221225_125002.jpg 20221022_083014.jpg

They shut down a 3rd bank. Another one heavy into crypto. Runs on banks and shutting them down…has an erie feeling of the past repeating itself and the government saying some people are too big to fail.

All my years in EMS, our saying was always…"what do you have with a motor vehicle accident at 4:00 in the morning and no intoxicated people. You have a missing patient ".

Deepwoodsbutcher said in Don't miss out on free hats and shirts when ordering over $300:

bocephus 😂 I do wear a lot of orange myself. Between working on construction sites and hunting season, but in my off time I prefer not to stand out

There was that time back in the 80’s when I was serving 5 to 10 that I wore orange a lot. Thank goodness those days are behind me. 😉😉😉

Tex_77 Watch out! I am so mad at most backpacking pillow makers, I could scream! But pillows are necessary to get a good night’s sleep. First, I slept for years on scrunched up tshirts filled with other clothes. Years of that. Even developed a system for that. But it was always a pain. Then I started making my way through the other options. A ziplock bag with air. Terrible. A ziplock with a bunch of other partially filled ziplocks. Barely better. Then I spent actual money on pillows. On most of them, as soon as I found one I loved, it would leak and be flat in an hour. So frustrating. And what they charge is ridiculous. So I have a checkered past with backpacking pillows. My current one, which takes up more room and weighs a few ounces more than I want, is the NEMO Fillo https://www.nemoequipment.com/collections/pillows/products/fillo. But it doesn’t go flat! The one I have is actually an older version. I bought it, deemed it too heavy and it got put in a box. Then several years later I ran across it and tried it again. That was two or three years ago. Its now worked its way into every trip I take. But what if I could find one of those 2 ounce pillows that would hold up…

So glad to hear those of you that posted fared well, I worry about those that was in harms way that didn’t.

gus4416 bocephus
WTH, no doubt both of you are right!

Jonathon I think I would stay away from these on land. Just another thing for you to worry about. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/see-a-gargantuan-komodo-dragon-effortlessly-swallow-a-wild-boar-in-one-gulp/ar-AA17JI8f?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=bc155b50c708493589536c806e623111

Austin I think I will stick with the jerky I have occasional received, but thanks anyway.

Oh, LL ya! Do you have a link?

most of us would be happy to reach over their heads and pull the chrome handle lol

Jonathon Wow, what a nice win. I tried as did my two son’s, but glad someone got this nice win & hope it is one of the Meatgistics guys or gals. I did not think they were at 500 yet, but Andrew told me last week they were going to go ahead & make the draw.

kyle Thanks. Good price. I’ll look it up

I REALLY ENJOY watching it!!

I would swear that I have seen humidity or something, maybe barometric pressure have an effect on propane in the past too, but I have never been able to consistently put my finger on it & narrow it down to a science so still not sure. Who knows, outside of a lab & very controlled & monitored conditions, it is hard to say sometimes.

I have a “Melon” head, and I have 3 of the “39THIRTY” in the L/XL but the colors are Black and Gold, go figure. They are 3 of my 5 favorite fitting hats! I only have a few others that I can even wear due to fit.

kyle now that plan might work. Thanks buddy.

Tex_77 I think the coach felt that FG wouldn’t be enough, I don’t agree with onside kick though.

Jonathon if we win awesome! But the Cats are notorious for tanking bowl games so I’m not going to fret much if we get steam rolled.

bocephus said in Happy Holidays:

gus4416 Not to get too much into this but I always wondered why we don’t sue car manufacturers for car accidents.

We could start a whole new thread on why we don’t and should not sue the manufacturers of products that work as they are designed. Defective products that cause harm are a whole different discussion.

But another thread, not here. Merry Christmas and pray for peace on earth.

I look forward to this idea. It sounds like great comedy.

RafterW Whoop, Whoop!!

mrobisr I agree with you 100%

Austin Jonathon I would like to thank Jonathan Haynes in customer service for his help with issues I had with the scale I ordered. Replacement should be here tomorrow.

Tex_77 pretty good game, feel bad for Navy player who fumbled though.
