  1. Seems both wasteful and stupid. The animal is dead. Why let any of it go to waste? If you want private land kinda near DC but a slightly shorter drive hit me up. My folks have land outside of Circleville. Rabbits abound. Doves too. I plan to hunt them but I'd love to see falconry in action. It's always fascinated me.
  2. I graduated in 2001 and was in my freshman year of college. Some of my friends and cousins and I had planned a trip to NYC on MLK Jr. weekend 2002 prior to 9/11/01. I was the youngest of the group. I happened to be at home that day and dad just happened to be off which was a coincidence as his days off rotated. We watched it together and afterwards we went to Tractor Supply and got some work done that day. Dad grew up travelling the world. My grandfather was an E9 EOD through Viet Nam. Served 21 years. My father took it in, reflected, said a prayer, and told me, "we don't let terrorist cowards stop our lives." Fast forward to January 2002. When we got to NYC we were lost. We stayed in Tarrytown and commuted into the city. We got on The Today Show, took in some sights, got lost on the subway trying to get to see The Blue Man group and ended up in China Town, and then the 2nd or third day there we got as near to Ground Zero as folks were allowed. It was still a disaster. We all stood in shock. Six young adults...kids really, from Ohio lost in a sea of folks carrying posters of their loved ones which read, "HAVE YOU SEEN ME?!" People showed us pictures of their loved ones hoping to hear good news. We had none. Emergency personnel were everywhere. Street vendors had cheaply made, "Never Forget!" type wares. At one point we found a "before" picture. We were standing within eye sight of a MASSIVE building. Just, much larger than I'd really known. My mother worked her entire career life, 42 years, at Nationwide, and I'd been to the top of that. This building was MUCH larger, or so it seemed at the time anyway. It had a large half domed top. I was staring up at it and looking at that picture realizing the twin towers were far more than double, maybe triple, the height of this building. I stood in silence. THAT'S when it hit me. 9/11/2001 didn't shock me. My dad had that old grit of, "We'll fight anyone." He gave me hope and I got equally angry at the attackers with him at the same time. Standing there that day, though, I was humbled. Now, watching back videos of people bailing out of windows and what not I recall that day and how far that leap was and what must have been going through those folks heads. I think back to the mother asking me if I knew her child. I think of the personnel still searching through rubble months later. R.I.P. Never forget.
  3. Most folks do. Cool you took your boy to his first game and it was a big one with a huge crowd though. Can't wait to take my son someday. I thought we played mainly man coverage the last 2 games. Am I wrong? 0.6 QBR. Third worst single game QBR in NFL HISTORY. How does one make millions being a starting NFL QB and have a 0.6 QBR? I'd get fired if I was as awful at my job as Dalton is at his.
  4. One of the better sections. Join the CR Gun crew and never look back. We have instructors, vets, and some very knowledgeable folks here. I too tend to shoot on fam property, but I'll tell you this: if Bob offers and you can, go. Doesn't matter what the offer is.
  5. I've always loved these. Sentimental reasons. Just drive the damn thing and enjoy it. That's basically all anyone else is saying. Literally what you originally said your plans were. Maybe an exhaust and clean it. lol IMHO that was a great trade. I'd love to have one of those.
  6. Wow. With all of that info the offers should just POUR in.
  7. That thing is terrible. I'd never use one, much less actually PAY to use one. I'm kidding. I've literally never used one and have no clue how they perform.
  8. Whoops. You're right. I was remembering preseason thinking it would come down to us and them for the conf champ. Don't see that happening now after seeing the last 2 weeks unless something drastic happens.
  9. Cut cable. Stream online. Get a box with Kodi. Never look back.
  10. That sounds like a giant hassle. Last title I did was in Logan. Put $0 because I traded vehicles. They asked how the weather was. Small towns DGAF.
  11. Except in bowl games against 'Bama. :gabe: Good for him. He played lights out. I pretty much agree with this except I'll say, as I said preseason, PSU and Wisc worry me. TTUN COULD, and MSU COULD. Don't know if they will. That game made me realize what it feels like to be a Browns fan I believe. Just nothing really got moving. Even when the spare big plays were made we didn't capitalize. The boys just didn't force the momentum to shift. OK did. They played well.
  12. The Fast and The Furious. That's why.
  13. I do? I would LOVE to talk cars with you. The problem is you don't simply want to talk cars. You want to assert yourself verbally. You don't have two way conversations. You seek to prove yourself in order to feel superior. It's ok. I've long caught on and accepted it. As a matter of fact, every time you think you're rustling my jimmies or what not, quite the opposite is happening. Even to the point that IRL certain members have told non-CR friends how fired up you get and made light of it. It's ok Kerry. I have no ill feelings towards you and I personally don't care if you're on CR until the day you die. You have indeed provided much needed entertainment here that had been lacking. Someone to get all riled up. For that I thank you. To quote you: Who keeps bringing up the other's name now? :thumbup: I sincerely hope you have a wonderful weekend.

  15. Why are you asking Clay? It's not Cleetus V. Email the guy if you want to know.

  17. Live in Cville. Went to Ross Co. 20 mins too but I walked out with mine IIRC.
  18. 3" mag slugs only. Go big or go home.
  19. 100% agree with everything said here. Find the best deal on either. Loved my Mossberg. It is what it is. My personal favorite is dad's old Winchester. It's from the 80's and still good as new performance wise. Found this one, but I personally haven't used that model.
  20. Some things can't be learned through a book, google search, or via tv/youtube.
  21. Didn't say what country. :gabe: I see your point here. If I HAD to choose I'd choose to be born poor of any race/culture that knew how to thrive living off the land. Whatever color that makes me, I'd choose that. Libertarian? Serious, non-trolling question: how long have you been a fight/self defense instructor? :dumb:
  22. EDIT: Tried just referencing one part of this but apparently we can't embed at a certain time. Some of this is funny, some is meh. Anyway...
