    Safety harness

    Just got a HSS vest this season. Sure beats the heck out of trying to unravel the spaghetti on the old standard harness that comes with the treestand !!!!!
  2. Heard on the news this morning that welfare is now the #1 expenditure by the federal government. Now THAT's just messed up !!!
  3. I hope you're somewhere else the next time the New Madrid lets go. The dynamics of that boundary have the potential to make ANYTHING California has ever seen seem trivial.
  4. Blues, bluegrass, rock with hard-driving guitar, some classical................. pretty much ANYTHING except rap and country.
  5. Keep your eye on the boy. The Doxycycline 1-2 punch doesn't always work. I know.
  6. I use these for almost EVERYTHING loud. Howard Leight QB2 HYG® Banded Hearing Protectors

    Again.........appreciate the link. But not impressed again. Think I'll stick to what I've been listening to.

    Not sure that comment "singled him out" for anything. Anything other than what I listen to is not important enough for ME to waste MY time on. Think about it. If it were important enough to me.................... I'd waste my time on it. It is what it is. P.S. I never even HEARD of Staind.
  11. Hope you never have a rat problem !!! YICK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  12. LOVE that area !!!!!! Would give my left leg to hunt swamp donkey somewhere in that vicinity.
  13. Can't understand why you didn't leave the UPS Store with your tracking number in hand. When you took your blind in (I am assuming you had them package it), they should have taken the address info, asked for any excess declared value, weighed the item and asked you for $X. At that point they have all the info to print your label (with the assigned tracking number) and handed you a receipt with the tracking number on it. That's how it works at the UPS Store here. Not sure what was up with the e-mail responses. That would have lit me up, too !!
  14. Got a look at my brassica/turnip/kale plot today. Progressing VERY nicely !!!!!!!! Also mowed the foxtail off my 3 acre clover plot that sits next to the turnips, etc. The foxtail had about taken over. But there's a good jag of clover underneath. I think if I hit the clover with some fertilizer next spring and bomb the foxtail with some herbicide, it ought to really start to boom. Still no pics. Too darned busy and moving too fast today.
  15. Interested to go have a look at mine tomorrow to see how the fertilizer is working (or not). Didn't get a chance to take pics last weekend. Supposed to be raining tomorrow. Maybe get pics.......maybe not.
  16. I LOVE that area !!!!!!! Kakabeka falls are beautiful ain't they ?? Haven't been up that way for a couple years and wish I was. It's only been 1/2 hour since I was on the phone with my dad giving him the temperatures in Wawa, Upsala, Sioux Lookout and Dryden !!!
  17. Poop. :angry: Here comes winter.................. :no:
  18. You might want to try a shim cut out of the side of a pop can. Usually runs in the .0040"-.0050" neighborhood.
  19. He throws me off some. The rack is certainly not what I'd expect of a 4 1/2 year deer in these parts. But the back line and the start of a belly make me wonder.
  20. Almost looks like a 4 1/2 year old deer to me.
  21. Have never used the VLD Hunting myself. But this is the bullet used exclusively by the guys at Best of the West TV show. They smack critters dead at some pretty impressive distances. All their own brand (BOTW) of ammo from .243 Win thru .30-.378 Wby Mag is loaded with the Berger VLD Hunting.

    Pit Bulls

    You know why, William ?? Bad breeding. Back in the '70's cocker spaniels were all the rage. Everybody wanted one. So anybody that had two cockers put them together and had a litter of pups. Didn't matter if the two dogs had any business passing along their genes or not. There was a big demand and good money in cocker spaniel pups. So we ended up with a high-strung, spazzy and often downright mean breed from what had once been a loyal, hard-working bird dog. Same thing, to a slightly lesser degree, happened with Labs a decade or so later. Now it's Pit bulls. I see it every day. They are not only the choice of the ghetto but of the college student. How many times I have delivered to a freshman, just moved in, and they've proudly got their Pit bull pup in the apartment. Poor thing spends the majority of its life in a cage alone in the apartment. Couple years later the dog is ramming the other side of the door when I knock. Kid graduates, the real world kicks in and Door Rammer ends up at the shelter waiting for adoption by someone who knows NOTHING about how the dog was raised/neglected. Makes for a bad combination whether it's a Pit or a poodle. But currently it seems the it is the dog of choice for neglect.
  23. Maybe get some pics of it over the weekend.
