I'm looking forward to some Zaxby's or Chick Fil A later today. No sign of wild chickens here yet.

I'm on the way to one of those plans right now. YAY!!

Field work is one of the things I really like about consulting. I get lots of variety- like they say, the scenery always changes. Of course, some of the time you really don't like the scenery. Tomorrow I'll be taking some field measurements in the "live hanging room" of a chicken processing...

Holy cow- I'd love to have a coworker like that! I understand what you're saying about the eagles. I was fairly impressed with American Precious Metals Exchange in Macon- they were willing to match APMEX prices on eagles. Although APMEX definitely isn't the cheapest place to order from...

I was going to say "until you draw my name" but that option seems to have been covered :) I'd say a few days to a week, based on traffic. Once everyone who is interested is in, there's no reason to keep it open.

Meh... let them do what they want. I haven't been in a Target in a long time. I'm waiting to see unisex, combined bathrooms. Now that would draw complaints... mostly from women I imagine.

Check out www.silver.com Free shipping most of the time and I've found their prices on silver eagles to be better than most. Granted the US minted currency is never the cheapest per ounce, but they are harder to counterfeit and generally bring a higher sale price.

Well, Happy Birthday! At least I got in on the first day of the thread. Hope it was a good one-

Oh how I miss the days working for a huge international company.... I just had to be there eight hours a day and show some progress from month to month (which could be accomplished in a solid 10 hours a month). Now I'm a consultant. The money is great, but if I don't have a job to bill to, I...

Hang in there man- I lost half of a big tree a few weeks ago and today my neighbor had a tree guy setting a crane in his backyard. The neighbor on the other side lost a pecan tree- big one... and it fell right on/against my neighbors house. Hope you make it through without too much damage.

Ha... yeah, the guy you trade a case of whiskey to might be and easy target to get most of it back later that night!

Nothing wrong with 1/2 MOA... that is basically a ragged hole at 100 yds. Sounds like a keeper!

I used a bunch of lead 185 grain SWC's in a Ruger P90 when I shot production USPSA. That stinking gun would eat them like candy. I think I had 3.8 or 4.0 grains of Bullseye in that load- it was just enough to cycle the action for faster follow up shots. I realize this is a poor way to train...

Just givin' ya a hard time... I ran into the same thing with a build- as me about the bull barrel money pit... back when I read more than I shot. I've got a .223 that weighs slightly less than a Howitzer and is way less effective. So long as it's a shooter, I think I could learn to live...

Lefty!! ;) I would have to put that one on a diet at 12 pounds. However, the reflex sight probably doesn't even register on the scale.

Hobbling around this week with a nail hole in my foot has been making me want to go walk around the block a few times. Partly because I need the exercise. And I'm sure it's partly because I can't walk right now.

Yeah- I've run a bridgeport before and this drill press doesn't have nearly enough power or speed to run an end mill very well. Even a new, sharp 4 flute bit.

If they have the hook side of the velcro on the back of the patch, a piece of felt or some "speaker box" carpet works great for a large, inexpensive display. Stretch it over a light wood frame or plywood.

Nice little kit there! I'm not familiar with the Janus from Maxpedition- I'm going to have to look that one up. The only things I'd change is packing the loose things in a ziplock freezer bag or two. I always manage to get caught in the rain or falling into water. It's nice when the stuff...

Oh good grief... I guess just because you can means you should?
