  1. I thought Eli was busting on Jones, here on CR. haha Thanks Mark. You're heading in the right direction with the range. I have other materials I will be adding, but the clay is a better over all fit for the need.
  2. Dump truck. Doesn't have to be a 20 ton dump. If other means of it getting there are an option, I'm fine with that. Just looking to get about 3-4 dump trucks worth of dirt. I don't have a yard measurement. Sorry. Hope this helps.
  3. Looking to get 3-4 loads of dirt brought in for a project. Wanted to give CR first shot at referring me to someone, or if someone on here can do this. Delivery would be about 15 minutes outside Columbus, from Easton. This is not a rushed project, so I have some flexability on when we do this. Thanks
  4. Though I've not thoroughly read all of this thread. I don't feel I'm going toward anything more than we have things pretty good I'm the US. Even if it is getting worse everyday. Someone can come from nothing and make a pretty good life for themselves. The politics. The balance of money through society. I don't get into that because I don't feel I have an educated opinion that would make a difference.
  5. Not sure if that was meant to be a bad thing or not. But, I'll take it as a compliment. I'd say this discribes me pretty well. Description[edit] Idealists are abstract in speech and cooperative in pursuing their goals. Their greatest strength is diplomatic integration. Their best developed intelligence role is either mentoring (Counselors and Teachers) or advocacy (Healers and Champions). As the identity-seeking temperament, Idealists long for meaningful communication and relationships. They search for profound truths hidden beneath the surface, often expressing themselves in metaphor. Focused on the future, they are enthusiastic about possibilities, and they continually strive for self-renewal. Interests: Idealists tend to study the humanities. They seek careers facilitating the personal growth of others, whether through education, counseling, or other pursuits that promote the happiness and fulfillment of individuals and society. Orientation: The lives of Idealists are guided by their devotion to their personal ethics.[1] They are altruistic, taking satisfaction in the well-being of others. They believe in the basic goodness of the world and of the people in it. They take a holistic view toward suffering and misfortune, regarding them as part of a larger, unknowable truth, a mystical cause-and-effect. With an eye toward the future, they view life as a journey toward a deeper spiritual knowledge. Self-image: The Idealists' self-esteem is rooted in empathetic action; their self-respect in their benevolence; and their self-confidence in their personal authenticity. Values: The emotions of Idealists "are both easily aroused and quickly discharged."[2] Their general demeanor is enthusiastic. They trust their intuition and yearn for romance. They seek deeper self-knowledge and want to be understood for who they are behind the social roles they are forced to play. They aspire to wisdom that transcends ego and the bounds of the material world. Social roles: Idealists seek mutuality in their personal relationships. Romantically, they want a soulmate with whom they can share a deep spiritual connection. As parents, they encourage their children to form harmonious relationships and engage in imaginative play. In their professional and social lives, Idealists strive to be catalysts of positive change.
  6. There are A LOT of areas being covered in this thread. And the attacks toward others "perception" are almost pointless. What I'm surprised by is how we Americans view poor, poverty, middle class, rich, and success. Carl hit on it a bit. And I get it, that we have some very impoverished areas of this country. But, go to a country where most people live bare foot, hungry, little to no electric power and just over all filthy conditions. America, we have our issues. We are not poor. We are, to some extent lazy. The people who have ruined their life and live in "poverty", that's a choice. MOVE. Leave the area that offers nothing. The means to start fresh in a new area are all around you. As stated, CR is mostly ok and though there are people on here who struggle, if you have internet, you aren't that bad off. I think we lose track of a few important things talking about this stuff. Are you doing what you like? If you are, then that's where you are and the life you live. That's your place in the food chain. If you aren't doing what you like, what are you doing the change that? Again, that's where you are in the food chain. Finally, ARE YOU HAPPY? What would it take for you to be happy? Get to where you are happy. Have the drive to create a good life for yourself and loved ones. Help others if you can, but know it's not up to you to support everyone. If there is someone thinking I can't relate tofinancial hardship. I grew up in a shitty trailer park in Vermont. My first rule I made growing up was GTFO of a trailer park and never go back to that living style. So far, I'm winning.
  7. I wish I could credit them with being in the "know". I can't argue that.
  8. Sorry to hear this, Bill. Best wishes for a speedy and thorough recovery.
  9. I literally just talked to the AMMO guy for all military ammo coming into Ohio. Very little care, cause it's not his problem. It's not something he can change, and I get that. His job is to order and be accountable for ammo and he gets it from somewhere, who has to get it from somewhere else. I'm not trying to hit the panic button. But, I am paying attention to things that I think add up to create a really bad day, or major turning point for how we currently live. Imma have to brush up on my cave man skills.
  10. Right. So where are US troops getting their ammo from after this?
  11. I hope you're right. I'd say they were targeted and forced to close. Losing more jobs. Sending more business out of the US. That helps the economy, right?
  12. This is copied from an article posted today. I can't see how this can mean anything other than we are screwed. According to the NRA-ILA, the last primary lead smelter in the United States will close down its operation in December. This means the US will lose its capability to produce lead ammo completely within its borders from the process of mining to production of commercial cartridges. Here is the press release from the NRA-ILA. In December, the final primary lead smelter in the United States will close. The lead smelter, located in Herculaneum, Missouri, and owned and operated by the Doe Run Company, has existed in the same location since 1892. The Herculaneum smelter is currently the only smelter in the United States which can produce lead bullion from raw lead ore that is mined nearby in Missouri’s extensive lead deposits, giving the smelter its “primary” designation. The lead bullion produced in Herculaneum is then sold to lead product producers, including ammunition manufactures for use in conventional ammunition components such as projectiles, projectile cores, and primers. Several “secondary” smelters, where lead is recycled from products such as lead acid batteries or spent ammunition components, still operate in the United States. Doe Run made significant efforts to reduce lead emissions from the smelter, but in 2008 the federal Environmental Protection Agency issued new National Ambient Air Quality Standards for lead that were 10 times tighter than the previous standard. Given the new lead air quality standard, Doe Run made the decision to close the Herculaneum smelter. Whatever the EPA’s motivation when creating the new lead air quality standard, increasingly restrictive regulation of lead is likely to affect the production and cost of traditional ammunition. Just this month, California Governor Jerry Brown signed into law a bill that will ban lead ammunition for all hunting in California. The Center for Biological Diversity has tried multiple times to get similar regulations at the federal level by trying, and repeatedly failing, to get the EPA to regulate conventional ammunition under the Toxic Substances Control Act. At this time, it’s unclear if Doe Run or another company will open a new lead smelter in the United States that can meet the more stringent lead air quality standards by using more modern smelting methods. What is clear is that after the Herculaneum smelter closes its doors in December, entirely domestic manufacture of conventional ammunition, from raw ore to finished cartridge, will be impossible.

    Anyone want to meet up for lunch today. Sawmill/Polaris area works for me. QSL, Chipotle, Five Guys... Just throwing it out there short notice.
  20. I'm a fan of things from Harbor Freight. I feel I went the economic route with the one I have now. Life time replacement seems pretty appealing to me. Coupled with release valve and foot changing options.
  21. Rob, tried to message you, but your in box is full. Call me at the number in my sig.
  22. ^^ That's the brass button I see toward the left end in the pic, right?
  23. I would think a NAPA one would cover it. Upon going to their sight, they don't like to put prices on things. That's just dumb. Freaking stone age business. Next.
  24. Is it this one? http://www.amazon.com/Campbell-Hausfeld-MP6000-Inflator-Gauge/dp/B0007ZJ1IK/ref=sr_1_3?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1382914983&sr=1-3&keywords=tire+pressure+gauge I don't like that kind of fitting/attachment. But otherwise, could work.
