    Wisdom teeth

    Got mine done in two sessions a couple years apart. First two came out pretty easily in a dentist chair. The other 3............................... Yep. I was blessed to have 5 wisdom teeth.................. were in there all sorts of sideways and messed up. So they came out (awake) in an oral surgeon's office. Didn't really bother me all that much.
  2. Best of luck to you !!! I know folks who have done it. They ALL were glad they did for many different reasons
  3. I think the mute swans are the LEAST of your invasive species worries.................
  4. Don't know how I missed this............................... Probably too late, but Jordan's Taxidermy in Oliveburg (just north of Punxsutawney on 36) did my bear rug and EVERYTHING ELSE that I ever get mounted. There is no better....................
  5. When I finish up Friday night, I'm off for 3 weeks......................... My to-do list is already about a month long, so.....................................
  6. Off work running errands today for rehersal and dinner tonight........................ Then tomorrow, my daughter, at one time Little Miss Dangerous on the forums, is getting married. So, I guess, that's where I'll be...................
  7. Never was happy with the way any tumbler measure threw any stick powder. Some of the finer sticks like IMR-3031 aren't TOO bad. IMR-7828..............forget about it. I load my centerfires for precision. I have an age old Redding tumbler measure. It's very good. But not good enough. What I have been doing for decades is setting the measure to throw about 1-2 grains light. Then I put the pan of powder on my RCBS balance scale and using an RCBS trickler, I manually run the last little bit in PRECISELY. Takes some extra time. But the holes in your paper at 100 or 200 or 600 yards will reflect the extra effort.
  8. Every time we go fishing in Canada, we go by Whitefish Bay. Where is the museum located ??
  9. Have used GB for a good many years. It's a great place to find stuff you won't find in a lifetime of browsing local gunshops. Like William said................ you need to know what's a good deal and what's not. And go into an auction with a top bid firmly in mind....................if the bid goes ONE PENNY over that number, let the other guy have it. He wanted it worse. If you let emotion drive your bid, you'll end up paying too much.
  10. Exactly the type of reason I cancelled my Outdoor Channel a couple years ago and nearly never watch the other hunting/fishing channels.
  11. Hey, Al................... Do your property taxes go up when you hang one of those ??
  12. No changes in equipment. No use to fix what ain't broke............. Now my #1 tree....................... the one that 3 of the six bucks on my living room wall have been arrowed from................ is dead/dying. So I'm going to have to decide on another tree in the nearby vicinity. There are a couple fair candidates. But nothing that even comes close to the setup I am losing. Bummed BIG TIME..............
  13. I actually have no plans for tomorrow other than mowing some grass. Sunday is my niece's graduation party. Hopefully........................... HOPEFULLY.................... that'll be about it. I just feel it's highly unlikely....................

    Would you?

    Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm.................................... that would be "no".................
  15. Up at 6 yesterday. Went for a coffee waiting for places I needed to visit to open. Ran errands til about 10. Boy's ball team picnic at 10:30. Home and Mowed til 6:30 then campfire at Sis's place til 11-ish. Much Yuengling to fight the heat................... Have not done a DARNED thing thus far this morning except look at this laptop.
  16. I'm kinda hesitant to put together another bunch of cameras.................. My last working ones kicked the bucket going on 4 years ago. Since then, I have killed my 3 best bow bucks, 3 years running.................... I hate to go and jinx something.
  17. When Rinne is good.................... he's REALLY good. When he's not.................... he looks REALLY bad. Has to be an incredible luxury for a coach to have TWO goalies in his locker room who BOTH have Stanley Cup rings. Sadly, I am fairly certain that's about to end. Fleury will likely be a Vegas Golden Knight next season.
  18. I admire the Blues organization. They are one of my favorite non-Penguins teams.
  19. I was just hoping it wouldn't go to OT on a work night. Lol !! Credit to the Preds. It should never have been that close of a series. Your Blues have put together some pretty strong seasons lately. I could see them getting to the final .......... Just remember who they gotta go through to hoist Lord Stanley's Cup......... Lol !!!
  20. Mowing, running a bunch of errands and standing by for my Mrs. FIL is in ICU and teetering on a very fine edge..................... Could go either way......
  21. Yep. Tomorrow night at the Bridgestone. If you're a Nashville fan, 2-0 was a good time to stop watching the last one................. The Preds still had a chance (in theory) at that point. I think Game 6 is gonna be very intense and VERY chippy.................
  22. I think it's over Sunday night........................ Pens take it. But I've been wrong before............................
  23. Well the Preds sure got a clinic in Penguins hockey tonight !!!!!! Got their butts HANDED to them !!!!! That's gotta burn................ Pens only gotta have one more like that left in 'em...........
  24. Awwwwww................ c'mon, Ruth !!! Cowgirl up and go old skool !! Get yourself a flintlock !!!!
  25. I hope you're right.................... Kessel or Malkin or Guentzel or a combination of the 3 are gonna need to get back to their own old selves............ Ain't gonna keep Lord Stanley's cup in the 'Burgh scoring one goal a game.
