  1. Re: 20 ga. h&r ultra I have shot the one and I too feel that they are VERY accurate out that far. Good guns at a great price.
  2. Re: Morning coffee I use to be a Folgers Columbian blend man, but then I moved to the "bigger city" and somehow found myself stopping at that darned old Starbucks place every morning...oh well, it good stuff.
  3. Re: How to help a 2nd grader? Again, I feel strongly that encouraging the positives will help tremendously. With the report card thing...reward him for improvement and growth, not just the letter grades and percents. If he has learned and shown improvement in areas, concentrate on those things. As far as the homework, I think it is a bit rediculous for any grade K-5 to count homework as part of a students grade, they should be measuring the progress and mastery of skills at those levels...(if you want to shake the teacher up, ask her how many standards your son has mastered and how the homework pertains to his accomplishment of doing so...really screw it to her...but in a positive way...)
  4. Re: Resurrect a political leader....who? I think that Lincoln for his leadership skills would be nice to have.
  5. Re: How to help a 2nd grader? I am an assistant principal at a K-8 school and I see things like this quite often. Here would be my suggestions...1.) Find that 1 thing that drives him or keeps his attention the most...and use it as a positive reward...even participate with him...2.) Even though you don't care for the teacher you need to develop a relationship that has regular communication so that you can understand what is going on at school and they know about home...it just helps piece together the puzzle sometimes....3.) Work with the teacher to develop a daily status report on his participation and class work. If he is working hard, he needs to be praised for it....and finally, it might just be a stage he is going through. I have seen kids that worked like this in the past and then for no good reason, they wake up one day and put it all together. Don't give up hope, it will work out.
  6. Re: Hunt any animal in the world Turkeys
  7. Re: Scentblocker Roadtrips I believe that there are 2 roadtrip suits. 1 of them is fleece and the other is not. The fleece one is said to block the wind. Neither have hoods like the dream season suit does. I believe they are more for early season since they aren't all that bulky and lined.
  8. Re: my 2006 turkey mount That looks really good. Nice bird!
  9. Re: Watching Monster Bucks XIV Volume 1. I think they all have good qualities, but I have become a big fan of the Primos videos. I do like it when the hunters all get together and talk about the hunts and give each other a hard time too. Makes me miss hunting camp.
  10. Re: Ryder Cup I find it odd that the Euros have a problem with women taking their clothes off. If they are that offended by it I can't help but wonder about their preferences...maybe they just don't swing that way...
  11. Re: Indiana Hunters... Am I correct in thinking that they did away with lifetime licenses?
  12. Re: New Offer to Consider Fantasy Footballers I also don't think that trade is any good. You're giving up more than you are getting.
  13. Re: Prayers It seems like these days everybody is affected by someone close to them shipping out or serving our country. I thank God everyday for those brave souls...your friend included.
  14. Re: I NEED A MAN.....NOW!!! I might suggest checking out Jasper Engines and Transmissions. I believe that carry alot of different parts and you might find something with them.
  15. Re: New Pledge of Allegiance, BY A KID IN SCHOOL! That is some good stuff. I just forwarded it to my school staff. Thanks for sharing.
  16. I know that alot of us like to sport the team realtree logos on our clothes and our trucks, but I have run into a snag. I just purchased a scent blocker suit in mossy oak simply because the fit was better. Does that mean I have to stop sporting the Team Realtree logo? Does it really even matter? Just looking for your thoughts.
  17. Re: NFL vs College Football? Does it really matter...it's football either way.
  18. Re: Favorite team It's gotta be the COLTS baby!!!
  19. Re: Building a new deer hutch That looks pretty good. Thanks for sharing the pics.
  20. Re: Golden Moose Awards I just took care of that...I did have to think a bit when comparing Dream Season and Roadtrips...both really good shows.
  21. Re: Redneck joke of the day That's a classic!!
  22. Re: Bad Boy Buggies How much do they run in price??
  23. Re: Anybody still think T.O will work in Dallas? Not a chance! I can't believe Jerry Jones picked him up...
  24. Anybody playing the new madden game out there? I picked it up for PS2 and it rocks!
  25. Re: Waffle House My wife and I experienced Waffle House for the first time a month ago...no we eat therre every Saturday!!!
