Bid on the trailer went through. Go to sign the papers on Monday. I am not going to miss city life at all! It's in a park, but still better then living in Schenectady! First time home owners. Looking forward to our own place and getting to know the neighbors.12 points

I wouldn't normally ask for this here...but if you could please keep me in your prayers In the whole scheme of things this is really a little thing,,,but as you know my knees aren't stellar...Today I did a few hours of mowing and when I got off the tractor they were stiff...decided to walk it off and go get the mail...2ft from the box I step off the road(crest of hill) and my foot must have caught the edge of pavement and the soft gravel...Next thing I know I'm flung forward into the culvert head first. I mentioned they are steep, well I managed to get my hands in front of me as my rt. knee slammed to the ground and I started the slide down the bank face first. Did a somersault and landed....If I wasn't in so much pain...reading this would have me laughing out loud...for it pretty much looked like it sounds...my palms are sliced up a bit but my knee is a mess and swollen and doing a popping thing just siting here...I must be in a bit of pain for I'm rather shaky at the moment........Hey could have been worse...could have broken my leg,wrist or hip! I'll count those blessings... So please if you could ask the guy upstairs if he could just let this be a bruise and nothing worse...I would really really appreciate it...Thanks...Chris4 points

I once handled a so called switch blade knife, you pushed a button and the blade snapped out The first thing that came to my mind is what the Hell is the big deal about that? I can open a jackknife in a couple of seconds without practice. Must be a huge advantage to the millions of knife fighters and slashers out there and the reason why the switchblade is illegal just like a pistol grip is some kind of huge advantage on an autoloading rifle. Just another "Bull Crap" law that accomplishes little or nothing! Al3 points

Thanks again everyone. It's an odd feeling; happy, anxious, and concern all rolled into one. But Giving a middle finger to the festering rat hole we are leaving will be a nice day to say the least. Sometimes listening to those with more knowledge gives a different perspective on things and you might even learn a thing or 50. Just make sure to bring the wife so you don't have to drive. I have to ask about the park rules on outdoor fire pits. Be it a commercial one or if I can build one.2 points

Sorry to hear it Growalot. I wish you all the best. Sincerely! I didn't want to "like" the post, but it's an important point for many of us. I hate to say it, but at some some point we all have to slow down a bit because physical limitations change and pure determination won't alter that fact. It sucks in the worst way, I know, but "it is what it is".2 points

This is true. It hasn't happened in a bit but when I was a kid it happened a bunch. Not sure if it was bow, broadheads or what. Id shoot a deer Itd look around or hop to me, go back to feeding n fall over. I def don't think it's cruel2 points

I'd also like to note, our welfare state policies are enticing illegal immigrants to enter our country illegally. The lure of all the "free" stuff is too much to resist.2 points

You would think so, but actually I taught myself to do the thread wrapping a few years ago specifically to make wingbones. There's a guy at my office who is very into building all kinds of fishing tackle who wants to get me into building rods and tying flies. I'm sure I will at some point, but right now with little kids it's hard to even find time to make a wingbone here and there.2 points

Sitting here with my son at 12::30 in the morning in the emergency room. He had the 3 wheeler for only about 3 weeks and now has managed to run over his own foot.I warned him of all the dangers you guys told me about but you all know you can lead a horse to water but can't make him drink. I guess the brakes were failing and he put down his feet to help him stop and that was all it took. Waiting for the exray to see if he broke his ankle darn kids anyway...anyone want to buy a 3 wheeler! Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk1 point

I'm sure you'll bounce back, pun intended. You have a lot more growing to do. Get better soon!1 point

Hopefully just bruises, scrapes, and broken pride. If still really hurts to move it after a couple hours - get it checked. My bad knee was already feeling a bit loose as I was walking across the office, now it feels off just sitting here after reading your post. I may still have a quick pace walking in the office, mall, walking the dog, etc, but hit the woods, fields, or trails, I slow it down. I don't want to drag myself out later. I'm not really old ...yet - have teen-agers, but beat up the knees back in my high school days. Hope it gets better quickly.1 point

Prayers sent. Hope your healing time will be short and as pain free as possible! Sounds like your tuck and roll may have saved you from worse injuries. Feel better soon!1 point

Nope, Nada, No BANANA's on my fishing boat!!!! A couple years ago I took a co-worker up to Saratoga Lake for some bass fishing. That is one place where ANYONE can catch bass at just about anytime. I also have won a few tournaments there, over the years. Well, after fishing on a perfect day for more than three hours, we had not caught one dang fish!! So he decides to take a break and opens his little square coleman cooler for a bite to eat and a drink. And there on top I see two BANANA'S! "Sorry Joe, these gotta go." He must have thought I was nuts as I tossed them over the side. But within 15 minutes, we were both landing bass! And I explained the reason for tossing the Nanner's. Coincidence? I don't think so.......1 point

I live down here and they will harass you for anything. Pretty sure I was listening to Steve Rinella podcast and he actually got detained when a cop saw his knife clip on his pocket while riding the subway. It's BS.1 point

Back in the mid 80s, I went bow hunting with a couple of buddies down in PA. The area that we hunted bordered up to a corn field. There was a couple of bear trails into that field that was as defined as any deer trail that I have ever seen. The corner of the corn field looked like somebody was testing out a roller there (about a quarter of an acre, flattened). All the corn was laid down flat with bear scat everywhere. I always figured that if a guy could find that sort of set-up during bear season, that would be as good a situation as you could ever find. There were obviously several area bears working that field, and spending a whole lot of time there. Seemed to be as good as baiting.1 point

I took a walk down to the creek to get some shots of some wild flowers today. Hiking along when a momma wood duck and her kids went scurrying across the water. The babies made it safe to the creek bank and hid underneath. Momma however put on the "lame duck act" and began splashing around trying to lure me downstream with her. Out of nowhere from behind me this hawk came ripping past my head and nailed her right in the deepest section of the pool! I had my short lens on so I had to make a quick change before I could do anything. I could hear all kinds of splashing going on but now I couldn't see over a mound of creek rocks. When I finally got situated and peaked over the rise, I saw momma duck swim under the creek bank on the other side and this hawk swimming for the other shore! Momma took a solid hit and there were feathers floating everywhere. She curled up in a hole and didn't come back out while I was there. Not sure if she made it or not. Mr. Hawk didn't stick around long once he dried out from his high speed plunge! Very cool to see such an attack so close!1 point

I've made some wingbones. With an almost 5-year old and now a 5-month old I haven't had the time to make any recently but will again at some point.1 point
