He'll still be tasty even with a messed up leg

Yeah if its messed up that bad put him out of his misery before he is eaten alive by coyotes

Yeah definitely looks like he needs put down and out of his suffering.  When it comes hunt time for a Yote, or something he'll be the first to go and suffer during it.  Make it quick and easy or call the wilfelife people to do it if you're residential.  

Leg is definitely broken.  I offered up to both my brother in laws who bow hunt to come over and take him, but of course neither wanted to waste a buck permit on a small, and very skinny buck. Game warden only lives a mile from me, and I've talked to him in the past at the local gun club. His stance is to take it legally, or let nature take it's course. Says there's plenty of deer running around tripod that last a lot longer than anyone gives them credit for. Even with all his hobbling around the yard for an hour eating, when the wife pulled in the driveway, he three legged it at a pretty good clip up in to the woods behind the barn.

Ok poser, you bang your pots and pans, and he can bring his shotgun. Why oh why do you give a fat fuck if this guy wants to bring a shotgun camping? Is it so fucking dangerous that you just have to say something, or are you just an anti-gun troll clutching at your pearls because someone doesn't share your optimistic viewpoint concerning a highly motivated hungry or angry bear and his abhorrence to percussive cookware?

Anti gun troll?

You've obviously never met me, or read any of my posts on the topics of guns. I won't bother getting in to an internet forum gun owning/dick measuring contest, but I assure you, there's not many who have a bigger or fuller gun safe than me.

Where in any of my posts did I say anything about giving a rats ass about what he does? My specific comment was IN MY OPINION, there is way more negatives than positives that can come out of the situation, and the odds of needing it are so low, it's not worth any of the potential legal issues to bother with. If he feels it is necessary, I do hope he does more pre trip fact finding on the legal issues than asking on a state specific moto forum.

Now, you'll have to excuse me. They finally took the corn down around my in laws house. Our clear shooting range is now back to 1000 yards. I've got a buddy who wants to go sight in some rifles today. I'll try not to give him any undue advice.   

This poor guys been hiding under the porch all day. Little six pointer with a seriously fucked up front leg. Pic sucks, it's an iphone through the window screen.

Campground =/= wilderness camping in a national park, where there is literally nothing for miles, you dig your own shutter and ranger rick ain't coming to help you. I saw plenty of black bear on a wilderness canoe trip up in Canada, thankfully from the canoe but the guides all had 12 ga shotguns slung at all times.

His post did not make me believe he would be doing long distance back country hiking and camping. He said truck based camping, which would have to be close to bike based camping for it to be an equal comparison. And that photo is a national park campground, Glacier.

When I did a 17 day canoe trip in the boundary waters canoe area as a boy scout in the 80's, we saw plenty of black bears. They woke us all up one night and had us banging pots and pans together to scare away one that was up in the tree trying to get to our food bags we had hanging in it. Not a single gun was along on that trip. My times have changed.

Op stated shotgun is for animal attacks. When you're camping in west-by-god, bears, coyotes, bobcats etc are a real and present danger.

LoL @ "overkill". It's a pair of handguns and a shotgun.

 

"I'm all for conceal carry, but..."   I love conversations that begin with that phrase.

You don't watch NatGeo or Discovery channel do you?

 

Even a shotty may not "kill" a bear right away but it will at least help.  A handgun with a normal CC caliber won't do much except like Casper said, make it mad.

Oh please. I've taken moto trips all over the west, camped in plenty of campgrounds that had signs warning of active bears in the area, and never felt the threat of attack was so great I needed a shotgun to protect myself. Worst situation I ran in to was trying to leave a campsite in yellowstone one morning and there was a group of bison on the only road out. I stopped a good distance back and figured there was certainly not anything I was going to do about it. Got the camera out and took some pictures, then sat back and enjoyed the sunrise.  They woke up and made their way out in the the field to start their grazing before too long. Some day, I'll have to get those photos out of the shoe box and converted to digital.  I only bothered to scan two pics from that trip over the years.

You guys might be watching a bit too much of natgeo and discovery.

Wow, talk about overkill. I'm all for concealed carry and gun rights, but you can't manage a road trip without packing a backup SHOTGUN? Where's your first stop, south side Chicago? I just see so much more that could go wrong that right. You ever count on having a night cap at the campground?

It appears we as a country, have achieved a whole new level of stupid.

I'm going to go apologize to my children now.

Tag for finding when not doing the phone hunt and peck replying. Like to hear more about getting acouple.

Years ago, I had a friend who moved to Wallen, TN. which is right over the parkway from the gap. Me and a bud would ride down there multiple times a year trying all kinds of routes. We came up with a few good ones that are 10-12 hours from Cincy to the gap. 45 minutes south east of cincy via the AA, then all twisty fun from there. I'm thinking 7 and 11 are a couple of the routes, but I'd have to dig out the old maps and look at the highlighted roads to see what all was involved. Yeah, it was that long ago..so I guess they might not be as good anymore.

I do recall being on 25E the weekend they opened the tunnel.

i read he got forced off the highway by a merging car and the off ramp he crested at 70+ mph. No idea if its accurate or not though

He didn't come up the ramp, he came up the embankment right next to the overpass. If it were me, there would have been a squished car.

I would love to upgrade the SSD and the video card in my PC, but my second monitor decided to die last night, and I use it quite a bit for audio editing.  I think the monitor will get repaired or replaced first.  I think I'm going to go for a 23-24 inch that's "full HD 1080" resolution to replace the 22 inch 1680x1050 monitors that I have now.

I use the 27" 2560x1440 monitors you can buy on ebay direct from korea. no issues with either of them on mine or my kids computers. Less than $300 delivered.

I know next to nothing about computers, and just found a guy locally who builds them to put me a couple together.

Mine-

AMD FX 7850 8 core black edition

Radeon HD7850

Gskill 8gb DDR3 RAM

AMD 970 motherboard

The kids-

Haven't found a porn yet I can't run in full screen at max. resolution.

Never seen rain, yet it's ridden daily to work?

crap, and that cash from selling the buell is just burning a hole in my pocket.  There's also a 748l  in similar condition listed right now. 98 was a good year for me, I spent the summer on my brand new vfr800 riding coast to coast and up and down through the west and Canada. Caught the world superbikes at Laguna. Any moto from that year could find its way to the front of my garage tucked in like the 98 fe is. Let's see where bidding goes.

Call me confused. Does your mom live here, or where is she coming from? I would suggest the new casino, or one of the garages in town that are decent- the newer queen city square building to name one. I'm on the far west side and have plenty of driveway space. Not real convenient for a through trip though.

It's sad to think anyone at any time thought that was a good idea.......

Sold

Dropping price to $4400. Just had a weeks vacation and put over 100 miles on the pedal bike and zero on this one. I could use the room in the garage.

I figured this out when I sold my what I thought was ready for the junk yard, 250k mile minivan for $5k earlier this year. There's just not as many used cars out there right now. Down scale a bit and buy something new within your budget.

Yep. Exactly what you need to do. I've been doing this for nearly ten years. Yes, I'm that cheap, but also because of where my house sits in a north facing valley, it always cools down quickly and significantly more than it does closer to the city. I might run the ac for a month in late July/early August, but this does the job for at least four months out of the year. Open bedroom windows on one end of house, leave fan blowing out of sealed window on other end. In morning when I leave for work, I reverse the fan, which cools down the kitchen and family room for the wife and kids to wake up to. She shuts it off when she leaves.

So, I am refusing to turn the A/C on. I'm a scrooge. Don't tell me to, because I will ignore you.

 

But, I am ventilating/insulating when appropriate. If it's much cooler in the house, I'll close it up, and keep lights off. When temps start to equalize, I'll get airflow and cold water for the cooling effect.

 

Now, for the question:

 

My box fans are 20". My windows are ~37" wide. The extra 17" of width is just allowing air to swoosh back the opposite direction. Should I cut out a cardboard rectangle to cover that up? 

 

Makes sense to me, as I can get a pretty good breeze, because these fans are on opposite sides of the upstairs. I alternate direction based on wind if it's strong, or whichever side of our brick walls is hotter. 

Sure, if you can move 60 miles south of fort Thomas. Commuting from anywhere north of 275 to there? Hell no.

Sorry, this one isn't on the media. Those were the "official" numbers coming from the coroners office. It's not the medias fault for passing along bad information. The coroners office should have just gone with the too early to tell what the number will be line instead of trying to give an answer knowing they were pretty much pulling it out of their ass.

Great. First day of vacation and this happens. If I wanted to be forced to actually do something, i could have just worked.

I usually go with piss off, or whatever, but no problem works as well.

No more like looking for trouble. Im not a big believer in any of this recording stuff. It seems to me you are looking to try to make something happen in hopes of taping it.

You are looking at it exactly backwards. The popo went to recording everything you do, as often as possible in an attempt to make it easier for them to find you guilty. If they happen to capture something on tape that would work against them, the tape will most likely be misplaced or "accidentally" deleted. Having your own recording is just a CYA measure.

Yes, this guy did this on purpose. That doesn't make it OK for the police to violate his rights*.

*Disclaimer - I never said they did or did not violate his rights, that's for the court to decide.

First off it would have been up to the dispatcher to verify that a crime was taking place as open carrying of a firearm is legal.

Had I been an officer who was dispatched, I dont know how to respond to such a call as I am not trained in the laws that these officers should have been trained in.

No, it is not up to the dispatcher to decide shit. They take the call, put it in the system and dispatch the police. Dispatchers aren't police.

Maybe it's a gay/bi in denial of coming out? Don't know any girl who enjoys taking it in the ass for their own pleasure.

But you enjoy putting your dick in an ass....ass is ass.

I guess the same goes for oral?
