  1. Kinda hard to be "stealthy" when you have a gigantic motorhome and trailer driving around. If they had the bikes in a uhaul truck and just opened the door and went stunting, and left, that would be stealthy.
  2. Could it be condensation from the copper getting trapped between the pipe and the black foam? Or a water leak from the back of the house to the actual condenser/fan unit? Maybe water is using the black foam as a path and just dripping at the valve?
  3. The main reason I am going is to see the Rolex cars. The Indy cars will be cool to see and hear as they go flying into Thunder Valley.
  4. I will be there Saturday. I'll be in the campground across from Honda bridge, near the esse.
  5. Should not have butter in school anyways...
  6. Welcome and cool on your "other " forum.
  7. I was in New Olreans 4 weeks ago. While at the airport, I was talking to a guy that works on one of those orange boats that shuttle supplies to the oil platforms. The New Horizon rig was one of 4000 active wells. The spill it self was major, but in the big picture, percentage wise, was not enough to alter the price of oil or have an impact on oil production.
  8. Next time we / I go, I will let you know. I only have 22LR, a Savage bolt action and a Marlin 795 semi-auto. Checking clubs/ ranges, I think this the state range is the best deal going, $24 for a season. I dont think i want to join a sportsman club just yet. There are 2 clubs that require service at club events. Not that it is a bad thing, but at this point, I just enjoy shooting and learning. At A and A range, they only charge $6 for shooting 25 skeet clays. They also have an event called 5 stand, that looks challanging. So maybe one Saturday we can see if there are any other OR members that would like to try skeet. Then we can call ahead and see if A and A offers a group rate. I try to get out to the range at least twice a month.
  9. Went out with Speedytriple today to the state owned range in Farmington,Ohio, off RTE 88 and 528. This range is about 15 minutes north of A and A outdoor range( near Nelson Ledges). From the ODNR website, you can get a single day pass for $5 or a season pass for $24. The best part about the state range is that you do not pay per hour. So you are not playing "beat the clock" like you do at other pay by the hour places. After a 10 minute safety meeting with the range master ( required for first time visitors) just pick your lane, 60 lanes total, and start setting up. This range has shooting benches and a cover / overhang for most of the benches. The range allows for shooting at targets only. They provide a target stand that you can tape your paper targets onto. To get your target out on the line, you ask for a "cease-fire". All other shooters have to put the weapons down, and move behind a yellow line,away from the benches. The cease fire was not a big deal since there was only 1 other shooter, besides me and Mike. Overall, a great place to shoot. Even though it is a little bit of a drive, you save on the range time. But you do go through more ammo,since you can shoot longer. When I was on the 100 yard range, I learned I need a better scope on my 22LR to shoot on a true 100 yard range. I could see the targets, but could not really tell where my shots were going. I ended up on the 25 yard range towards the end of the day.

    The Dragon

    NC speeding story. About 10 years ago, on 77 south heading to Charlotte. I was a line of 5 cars. We all were probably going close 100. A trooper and some backup taking radar on an entrance ramp pulls all 5 of us over. The trooper asked if we knew how fast we were going. I told the officer I was not sure, just keeping up with traffic. The officer said he did not know how fast we were going either, but that he clocked the car we were passing at 95 MPH. He said anything 20 MPH over the limit is an arrestable offense. He wrote the ticket for 19 over. The fine plus court cost was about $125 and we got to mail it in.
  11. I don't post on alot of stuff. One issue with posting on a forum is that you dont get to hear the "tone" of what is said, so we get to use a pallet of smileys to help.
