Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
We do what we can!
Poor Ramius!
Sorry to hear your feeling sick. But good news! Tomorrow is Friday and you'll be homeward bound!
Was last night quieter than the night before or did you get any more "Intruder Alerts"?
genius... hadda be Air Force... wouldn't wanna get his purty blue suit dirty...
I believe it!
I'm sure I've breathed in my fair share of asbestos and such, too. We were never quite sure WHAT we were dealing with in some o' those old buildings...
I completely agree about the .270. It's just a darn nice flat and fast round. Good for many things, except maybe the really big game. Not for bear, I wouldn't think, but plenty for blacktails, whitetails, maybe even elk. Elk might be pushing the limit a little.
What's this about the model 70 changing back to something akin to the pre-64 stuff?
Which is always just enough!
.270 can kill elk or black bear... the key is shot placement... that comes from practiced marksmanship... and patience to wait for the shot...
brown or griz and big boar (300+ lbs) just have too much meat and bone between fur and vitals
I've been here for only half an hour and I feel better already.
My nephew stayed home from school today and managed to lose the remote control to my TV. I was in a royally bad mood when I got here, but now I feel a million times better.
Even though I'm stuck watching Full House with Becky. *rolls eyes*
I've looked everywhere for the durned thing and can't find it. He says he left it on the dresser, but Alyson prolly took it and who knows where it could be now. I've even checked in the fridge! LOL!
So what do you plan on killin' for us at Shoot Moot? *grin*
The one significant cabling task I've ever had, was installing thin Ethernet cable for the small company I worked for. There was the possibility the network would have to carry Secret info, so the security requirements decreed that all cabling had to be visible.
We hung all the cabling on hooks from the ceiling... drilled holes through the walls between offices and pushed through PVC pipes, then ran the cable through the pipe. Easy!
what ever is in season... and any lib'rals that happen along... not likely tuh see one of those tho'... they're an endangered species round these parts...
When are you going to be able to move in your new place?
that just ain't right...
Didn't get any more intrusions... he seems to have got the message.
It was a *major* headache though... because when it started to develop that day, one of my guys interrupted a meeting I was having with with our SOX audit consultants in order to give me the "news". The subject of the meeting? Well... network security of course... [sigh] this created a whole host of new documentation of this "event" that I had to go over with them today. [sigh]
Timing is, in fact, everything.
Sounds like a plan to me.
I still, however, refuse to be the first one to cross over your property line!
Oh brother!
Could the timing have possibly been worse?
Wait. Don't answer that. ;-D
Oct. 29 is closing. I'm planning on moving everything I can carload by carload and then hire Two Guys and a Truck to move the heavy stuff.
Seems like a given, that each of the attendees at shootmoot should get the opportunity to kill something with a rifle.
I have an idea... let's have somebody advertise over on DU that there will be a "Peace Picnic" on such and such a date... with free tofu... at such a such an address in MO...
Or, would that violate some sort of "game baiting" rule in Missouri? I know that Washington's fish&game dept frowns on baiting.
