ELMER J. FUDD

Oh, we've had some "fabricators" all right!

Are you disecting it to the point of "end user" vs "middle man" I'm sure we all see the difference, but the fact remains that boa makes money off of mcmillan as does the supermarket does off of customers.

If one entity makes money off of another, it's a business/client relationship any way you look at it. Do you think an insurance company's money is different than a persons copay at the hospital you work at? You feel that McMillan Fiberglass Stocks, McMillan Firearms Manufacturing, and McMillan Group International are the same as the guy trying to buy groceries? It's still money exchanging hands.

<<<<Honda guy, guilty as charged.

All received tarp money. I'd rather see the auto industry get it than the financial sector, but hey what can you really do. Boa did repay all the money, and most if not all Tarp loans did/will generate revenue for Uncle S©am.

Support your local credit union. Boycott GM, GE, Chrysler, Boa, Goldman Sachs, etc.

Rich, Chic's Marina has treated me well. It isn't cheap, but the boats are farely new or new. http://www.chicsmarina.com/boat-rentals/ Unfortunately I'm camperless as of last year. I'm pushing my boat campaign with the wife, but may pick up a bigger camper. Wish me luck! We'll see.

This thread is almost as good as the jersey shore. Trainwreck anyone?

Good luck with the new mower!

Ok, I hope you guys get a kick out of this one. This is the actual pic I put in an ad to sell the jetskis. I did go fishing that day.so does it still count as in the field?

Hey, aren't we a bitt overdue for a mountain lion thread?

I'm totally thinkin' "Space Cowboy" as well.

A bit of advice I heard. "I don't expect much, and I'm never disappointed." The biggest problem I have is that nobody is really allowed to hunt with me at my private spots except the "buddy" that owns it. I want my own land in the worst way so I can invite all you guys over for an opening day massacre! Fuddfest 2012! LOL!

I chose my name because it's funny as hell, I feel like Elmer when I'm all dressed up and sitting alone in the dark at 530am,just to not see a deer. Plus when I'm trudging around in the snow, I can't help but feel like Elmer J. Fudd! Whenever something dumb happens...well, that's what I call an Elmer Fudd moment. I also call people Elmer alot when doing outdoor related activities. I think all you guys that wear Elmer's style hats are funny too! Lmao!

Sits, you make a good point about others contributing to help keep costs down. Personally I don't think it will end up working that way with all these slobs running it.

Wishful thinking. Just seems like more effective results could have been achieved with that kind of coin.

They took the 787 billion from the bailout and split it with every American. My 1st thought, nobody would have a mortgage! 300 million people in the country. We could've done more with less than 787 billion as well. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. LOL.

Keep up the good work.

Looking forward to reading some of your stories. Welcome.

Idiots with anything should be outlawed!

How many of you guys joined the facebook group NYCC?

Don't sweat it. You're doing better than me. I set out to pressure wash on Sat. and got as far as taking the damn thing apart because it wasn't pressurizing much! 3 hrs with 2 "assistants" pulling my leg every 5 minutes. I got it back together and called it a day. Looks good.

With the exception of the disabled. I agree with Wny on the temporary issue.
