I agree. Also will enjoy the fodder it will give to all the ND fans still whining. Never heard an explanation for Alabama not dropping a single seed after their terrible showing against Georgia.
Growing up I always viewed the Presidential election as choosing between 1st and 2nd. Took me into my late 20's to realize it's actually choosing 9th and 10th place with no choice given for the other 8. Now I'm thinking it's more like 99 and 100. Very frustrating. Where are the George...
Wow, never even occurred to me this is happening. I'm sure it is. Times really have changed. I'm only 37. This thread gives me a lot to think on, generally regarded the QDMA as a net positive on hunting but good post above illustrating the outcomes. I don't have kids, but me and most of my...
Runs in my family. Never been an issue for me, thankfully, I didn’t taste it until 6 months after I was 21 because of the fear DARE and seeing my dad drunk every weekend.
Uncle had a pretty bad episode a couple years ago. Made me really think. I would drink maybe 2-3 beers a week. More I...
The Greys have us all crate, I mean home, trained. We go to work and always come back to our structures. If we stay out of our homes (crates) long enough we get into trouble and end up starting wars and setting off A Bombs and such.
It’s really a matter of perspective.
If you can’t have...
Ended up pulling the trigger on the Echo 2511PN w/ 12" bar, on sale at Arlington Equipment with free shipping, mostly in part because it's "the lightest chainsaw in North America." Didn't go electric for the same reason I probably won't ever own an electric motorcycle, just doesn't feel right...

He answered the question definitively and directly, which is more than politicians usually do. Easy to say he was lying then, now. But unless you have some sort of magic 8 ball figuring out when a...
Exactly, I said before the election how frustrating/sad/disappointing it was that our options were Trump or Biden, and then Trump or Harris. For me, the Dems skirting due electoral process and pretending Biden was something he evidently was not to the majority of Americans until it was too late...
Ranger is available in self-bailer only? Is your Mule self-bailer or open? Open seems to be what I'd lean towards, not a fan of wet butt, but realize water dripping off paddle may result in wet butt regardless?
Just clarifying, did you stick with the 210D for the raft you bought?
The weight isn’t as big of factor as it’s less than a lb more but packability and cost ($200 more), sounds like 210 is plenty tough.
Also, do you think it would resist a knife puncture if my knife fell off my pack while...
Fair point. That’s how I used to carry it, in my hip belt pouch (sheathed) out of sight. However, as you jokingly mentioned being prepared for hand to hand combat my thought process was after seeing how fast bears charge during those bear spray simulations that if I got knocked down by a bear...
Genuinely curious where would be the safest place, and still maintain access (so not in my pack, which is definitively the safest place), in your opinion?
Carry on chest, could get stabbed in the lung/heart area between a rib, hip or leg - femoral artery. I have to literally yank on that thing...
Shoulder strap is where I keep my fixed blade, an ESEE Izula. Made in USA, weighs practically nothing and is under $100. Same as you I only use it for “hard” cuts around joints or extracting teeth. I use my Gerber vital for the majority of deboning. It doesn’t come with the paracord wrap...
Mahomes possibly did too earlier today. Gonna end weird not seeing the Chiefs in the AFC championship game, let a lone not seeing them in the post season. I like the Bills and Broncos chances, hoping one of them make a deep run.
