Otis Nice

I dunno if anyone will be interested or not but I thought I'd share. I made a couple posts in the "what did you see today thread" about this event last month but it appears this is going to become a "thing" and seeing a CBro or 2 post on the FB group page now, the page itself grow to 3k members in about a month, the posts from folks getting all kinds of rides from lowriders, hotrods, classics, modern muscle, lifted Jeeps, bikes, etc, ready to go, and what not I thought maybe some other folks here might be interested. A little over a month ago a fella decided to start up "take back the strip". For those of you that weren't privy to cruising the meh town of Cville from the 90's-TF&TF era it use to be a BIG thing every weekend night. Lot of cruisers, folks parked up and down the strip, etc. Well, he wanted to see that again amidst the shutdown and what not so he made an event on FB, it spread like wildfire, and went down in an amazing fashion. The turn out was more than he or anyone else expected. It was insane...in a good way. All types of vehicles, folks hanging out along the strip in their cars, the bed of trucks, etc, and families just enjoying the show. No incidents. No fuss. No problems. The police and city were on board and although aware they weren't expecting the turnout and even with the occasional tool acting a fool they let things ride and everyone had a great time. It's happening again tomorrow (or today, 5/2/2020) from 6pm to 10pm...ish. On the page you can see the suggested route. It quickly became a great thing as local businesses and food trucks are opening up, a food drive is being done, and what not. I think it's great that after 1 event they've looked at ways to use it to help others. So, that's it. Come out in the trailer queen (if street legal obv), the DD, the fun car, the classic, the show car, on the bike, whatever. Last month I saw an OG TV series Batmobile even. I think this will be happening on the regular from this point forward but time will tell. Just wanted to offer something for like-minded car folks looking to cruise (slowly. Like....REALLY slowly) and see some different rides and enjoy being out and about. Pics from the first event.

...yeah. That ones on me. 1 self inflicted demerit.

"Canadians own an estimated 34.7 firearms per 100 people, according to Small Arms Survey’s 2018 estimates, making it one of the highest per-capita firearm ownership rates globally. In contrast, per-capita firearm ownership in the U.S. is 120 per 100 people." I'd say it'd be a bit harder but I do understand what you're saying and would say that this SIP order (not to make this another coronAIDS thread) has shown just how willing folks are to give up certain liberties (not making an agree/disagree statement here), how easy it is for politicians to take them (not claiming either side is better than the other), and how easy it is for folks to turn a blind eye to many things happening when one pointed topic is crammed down their throats.

Worked for Chicago.

Call me. I can help. Every pig is the exact same weight? Do you know how big food/farming works? Not being sarcastic. Free country. Shrug.jif

Nair.

My single shot 16g would be perfect for this.

No worries. I have an extra one as backup I'd be willing to send ya but to ship a beat up old one to TX prob wouldn't be worth it over a new one at that price.

Get yourself a little 1x30 HF belt sander. Seen them for as low as $30 some places. Well worth it.

Very cool.

That's pretty cool. Kudos to making your own vs the cheaply bought ones. I had considered making my own flint knapping tool a few years back. Similar set up just much shorter.

You've been busy. Nice work. @ "Chea!"

This and if desired (recommended) get the smoker attachment. Order online and have it delivered though. Grills aren't essential. :gabe:

That'd be pretty fun. Are ranges open for this sort of thing? I mean, I could get a thrower and do it on the fam property I suppose.

Looks edible. Not bad.

That's not about Karen.

This. I use imgbb.com but imgur works too. Host and link.

I 'd at "essential oil diffusers".

Tha...that's an option? Bike looks good, as I've said in CB, lolry. Glad to see you enjoying it.

I was being facetious.

Sounds like a lot of folks in here don't know how to multitask while driving.

Thank you.
