  1. I knew I had a picture of my nova somewhere. It was my first car at 16. Not only did my parents let me buy but my dad showed me how to build an engine and change rear end gears . Way faster then any 16 year old should have been driving. I have time slips somewhere from Lancaster, I remember running a best of 8.20

  6. I moved a small Painted Turtle off the 5 & 20 highway today. The little dude was movin' right along but he honestly didn't stand a chance. I got out and stopped traffic so I could scoop him up and get him to the other side. I was certainly in more danger than he was at that point. I have no idea why I do stupid stuff like that. I certainly don't want my obituary to read, "Geneva man killed by NYC trash truck while saving turtle." That would be wrong.

  10. Someone found my CZ premium 30-06 in its case on the side of the road. Don't ask .... (Don't put your gun case on top of the truck while loading gear to go to the range. No idea how I didn't hear it slide off either.) They did return it. Good honest young man!

  18. Since I have my 2010 Ram paid off, Ive been starting to turn it into my toy. It is still a work in progress, as I have to undo all of the damage done by the salt, the original owner and a bad driver or two over the last 7 years. She wont be seeing any more winters unless its absolutely necessary from here on out. So far I have a Zone 6" lift in the front/5" in the rear, with Bilstein adjustable shocks set at 2.8" above factory in the front and Fox Nitro shocks in the rear, 35x12.50 Nitto Trail Grapplers on KMC X D Riot 20x12 wheels, a Flowmaster exhaust, an 1100 Watt sound system and some other misc stuff thrown on there. New front fenders are next, then next year will be a bunch more goodies including a Detroit locker, 4.56 gears, engine tuner, etc.

  22. Steyr SSG-69 made in Austria. This is one of my favorite rifles, but hasn't been out of the safe for quite a few years. It's a .308 Win and a blast to shoot, but shoots best with match ammo, which ain't cheap. It has the set trigger which really brings it down to "hair trigger" status. It currently sports a Redfield 3-9x40mm Battlezone scope calibrated for 168 gr .308 Win bullets at 2800 FPS. Once sighted in @ 100 yards, just dial in the range needed and aim dead on. It's shoots .5 MOA consistently. Too heavy for hunting though.

  23. I think he wants me to check behind his ear for.....ticks..LOL This area is a failed, 4yrs old, plot. Filled with mostly moss and weeds in the oak flats...rain has kept me from doing anything here including moving a winter cut tree. This is a very very moist area. I got 58 pictures of deer and one turkey in 2 days traveling back and forth through here even with no browse to mention. I does have a bedding Island and a bottom of hill 30ft wide buffer zone and trails going every direction. It is always where doe drop fawn, every single year and raise them mainly here...I have literally scooped them up out of water filled depressions in the ground to a drier spot near by..I never understood this still don't. I wonder if it's the dog wood brush I keep in the area.

  24. The first year that I had my woodworking shop (1992) probably 95% of the lumber I used was salvaged from old furniture on the side of the road for trash pickup. I even had a few customers who would bring me stuff they didn't want any longer and ask me to build something they did want. Example: A nice maple bunk-bed that was no longer needed was turned into a pair of end tables. The kids had grown up and moved on, but the sentimental value kept the couple from selling or trashing the bunk-bed. The sentimental value was transferred to something that was useful in their lives.

  31. my best find ever was back in the mid 70s...I was riding my bike along the road when I found a watch lying in the middle of it. I picked it up and it was still running, but the crystal was broken. It turned out to be Seiko automatic watch, at that time (as I remember) going for about 200 bucks in the sears catalog. We had it cleaned and a new lens put in it, and I wore it for years. I still have it, and pulled it out a few years ago and decided to have a local watch repairman clean it up. He ruined it, and scratched the bezel to hell. Boy, was I mad....hated to pay to get it back, but I hated to part with it. I have owned a Seiko ever since. The 2nd best find was on my paper route....I saw a rifle muzzle sticking out of a garbage can. When I pulled it out, it was most of a Winchester 94, (missing the butt stock and a couple internals). Dad and I completed it, and I had it for years.

  32. Forgot about the Weber Grill......I was doing a job off Klein Rd (Chestnut Hill Ct IIRC) and it was by the curb. Garbage day was still a few days off so I knocked on the door and said WTH? House was sold and they didn't have room to take it! I had my work van so I just bear hugged the SOB and heaved it in. $150 worth of new burners, grates and so TLC and it was like new. Since my Grill at home was still in good shape, I took it to my Uncle's cabin and it worked flawlessly. He sold the cabin a number of years later and it was left for the new owners. Long story but great score.

  34. I guess the reality that even we have limits as to how far we can solely finance every fix to all the worlds ills. It is time for countries to begin taking individual responsibility for cleaning up their share of the mess that they create. We do. Trump is simply saying that we no longer will play the role of the fool when it comes to matters that impact the entire world. Frankly, I am glad the message is out there now that we no longer supply free meals. Even we have our limits. We have to apply pressure to the different countries to act environmentally responsibly, not supply all the resources to do it for them. I think that is Trump's message and determination, and all I can say is, "it's about time, what took us so long?".

  37. She actually did say something to that effect a few years ago. And she was entirely serious about it. It was about the same time that another Democrat genius proclaimed that an island in the Pacific was going to tip over because of over-population on one side. Ahhh, the best and the brightest.

  45. I am enjoying the fact that we have a president who can look beyond some of these liberal feel-good issues and make some measured decisions that rely on something other than emotion for a change. Watching the left go through another emotional meltdown also provides a certain measure of satisfaction too.

  46. Really? Seriously? I tried to agree with a few points you made, but, the above excerpt from your post made be take a few steps back. So God has put you in right place of someone else hitting a deer and wrecking their vehicle, possibly having serious injury to driver and passengers ( possibly even killing them ), just so you could kill a deer with "pocketknife"? Perhaps you should rethink this part of your post. You come off as more concerned and "dispatching a deer" ( and putting a feather in your hat ) then being worried about the well fare of the people who hit the deer. Seems a little self righteous in my opinion. Are there many people killed hitting a white tail, nope. But, there sure are a lot who have totaled their vehicle hitting one. Some people have very high deductibles and premiums! So that deer you "dispatched" and got to put in your freezer was only free to you! It may have cost the driver hundreds or even thousands. Did you get the name and numbers of these people who hit the deer to ask if they wanted some of the meat? I doubt it. Jesus would have done that! Jesus would have offered to process the meat for them and give it to them. ALL OF IT IF THEY WANTED IT!
