The reviews on Amazon are pretty bad with this system. Seems like a lot of frustrations, even someone going back and downgrading their first review.

Rick, are you the POC for this or just putting it out there? I can talk to my guy who covers that area and might be able to get a military truck there and give out some things. LMK

Nice looking set up. Any pics 0f the inside?

Tony and Scott are two great guys that organize this rally. Doc, they and we, are lucky to have you as a veteran to share your tail each year. Thank you for all you do, and the time to put your trip into words and pictures.

I have that bag, but use it for work, not a range bag. I linked that I could have things organized and padded. It had held up well for over a year and shows no sign of wear. There is a wooden support in the bottom that I feel could have had better fitment, but does not effect the function of the bag.

Good to hear you got it worked out. What's the name of the place you ended up going to? Would help us to have options, as Rickenback is not very convenient.

That is useful. If you are under the age of 35 and have not served before.

Tim I'm a little lost in the beginning of your post, but I think I got the gist of it. Tim and Kerry, I can agree with what you've added about China and NK. That's what has me thinking it would take a revolution from within. It would put China in a position to step in and help its ally, yet create the option for NK to choose. I could also see China just taking it over. It's a mess. Kerry I'm pleased to see that our current administration has people thinking the way you posted. We have the right people in place to be diplomatic when that's what the situation calls for. I can only hope more people share your skepticism. So long as Trump is not in sweats and a tshirt all the time, I don't care about what he's wearing.

NK maintains it's scary factor because they are viewed as barbaric and unruly in today's environment. Rumors of the punishment for seemingly menial things, some appear to be proven, are barbaric and cruel. I'm not saying I agree with them. But that place is not the US, or any other country. It's its own country and outsiders are trying to be humanitarians and tell them they can't do that or have that, or treat it's citizens that way. KJ is a man child, and in charge. That's a bad combo for leadership. Ultimately I think the US and other nations will do what we have in many other places we have issues with. We will influence a revolution of some sort. The assassination of KJ will fall on a motivated national from NK, resulting in them being killed after mission complete. It would take organized civilians to overthrow the militant government and create change. BUT, they have to want that and be willing to do that. The class system is very much in place, IMO, so locals have been kept down and unknowing for so long that it will be tough to get that countries main population to move and think for itself. That's where it would have to have outside guidance from the US or other nations. How do you get a well organized lower class group of civilians to be willing to fight and think they can win? It would take decades of infiltration and life long commitment to the task of getting into that country and setting this up. I'm not foolish enough to think it isn't in the works, nor am I overlooking that a group could and is here in the US trying to do the same thing to us. I posted this on FB as an "idea" not to be overlooked. The Ohioan from Cinci who was detained by NK, then release back to us, only to die a week or so later. http://abc6onyourside.com/news/local/otto-warmbier-has-died-according-to-his-family Sad to hear about this. This is something to think about, even though it is far fetched. Imagine a country that hates the US, captures a US citizen and then makes a great release back to his family and home county. The detained person goes to their home county being injected with something not traced. It manifests into something terrible, spreads and becomes wide spreading medical problem. Will people become zombies? Air born infection, that can't be contained? Far fetched, yes. Possible? Yes. This is the kitchen, so run with it.

If it's just rank and you tell them you need to leave with it, you could have a good chance. Adare sold it, and I don't know who the new person is in there now. Get there when thy open on Wednesday and that's your best bet.

There is a PX at Rickenbacker Air Base. In the PX, there is an alteration shop. I haven't found any other place to trust my uniforms to in Columbus.

Yes, they are channels.

Scott, this is great to read. Keep it up man. Congrats.

Does anyone want free catfish? I have a 7lb, 6lb, and a 4lb. I'm taking cats out of my pond and caught these last night. They are alive in a large section of the creek I have pooled off, but I don't want to keep them there. I can easily net them and you can take them.

STi's are a terrible car. 10+ years and nothing substantial for power increase in the motor. Decades of rally history and accomplishments. Every boy racer out there gets one and thinks he's Ken Block, yet has no idea who Colin McRae is. Welcome. Here's mine. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/2011%20STi_zpstabjrxhi.jpg

I would tell anyone to try Gliss line. You can cast a mile with this stuff, maybe just short of a mile, but you get what I mean. Super smooth retrieval. Strong like braid, but not thick. I feel everything with this line, and my hook sets and fish staying on, went up substantially from using mono line. https://www.amazon.com/Ardent-Gliss-Green-Fishing-Line/dp/B015AESZR0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1498785604&sr=8-1&keywords=gliss+fishing+line

Looks like he needs 265/35/18, at least one tire. And, two 255/35/18, or two 225/50/18.

Need a pair of 275/30/18s for a friend. Let me know what you have please.

I was on the flip side, being the one to buy someone's "pride and joy". I was basically interviewed to buy my current STi. I'm not mad about that. It actually made the sale, with me having more confidence in the care of the car. In December of 2014, finding a 2011 Sti sedan Limited, with the boltons with COBB that I would have put on, the color and interior I wanted, and only 8,000 miles, let's just say it's tough to trust these cares have been cared for. The guy was in his 40's and the boltons and COBB had less than 500 miles on them. Our sticking point in the sale was when he asked me what I planned to do with the car. I told him it would be my daily, and it broke his heart. He said the car had never been in the rain, let alone in the snow. We talked more about why I have had several Subaru's for my DD's and he came around a little, but he didn't like it still. I had a Legacy specB at the time that I was selling. He kind of inspected that car, to see how I would treat his car he was selling. I can appreciate that. He really didn't want to sell the car, but he was down sizing houses and had a few cars, so the STi was on his "to go" list. He asked me several times if I was going to race the car, rally the car, or be a parking lot hoodlum. I told him I would be a spirited driver on a daily bases. He sold me the car. I bring it by his work a couple times a year for him to look over. He always wants me to Floor the gas when I leave the parking lot. He still misses the car.

Spring has not given great weather for this weekend. Might as well do that CCW class you have been wanting to take. Still have open seats for tomorrow.

We did windows and doors from Menards and had a contractor put them in. Just paid for his labor.

Bump.

Clay said it's cool if I grab his "rod". I knew there was something about that guy. LOL
