They were regular loads ( 14 ) except for 2 reloads . I believe he said that he had tried to fire them a 2nd time but he didn't move them in the cylinder . The primers were indented and looked like regular fired rounds . I suggested he give the pistol a good cleaning .

Got back from the Gun Club a little while ago . I had a few 44 cal rounds that my son had shot with his Smith & Wesson and they didn't fire . The primer was struck but no ignition . I took my Ruger Super Red Hawk over to the range and they all fired in my pistol . I am thinking that either his pistol needs a good cleaning or the firing pin is defective . Any thoughts ?

I had my last cigarette at 8 am December 24 , 1979 . I was a carton a week smoker . I lost my Dad the previous month ( Nov 11 , 1979 ) to lung cancer . He smoked all his life . I think the disgusting ads make people think about what smoking does . The only problem I have with the ads is they are sponsored by a government that subsidized Tobacco Growers for many years !

This is a copy of an actual letter sent to Ryan DeVries, from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, State of Michigan. Wait till you read this guy's response - but read the entire letter before you get to the response. Site Location: Montcalm County Dear Mr. DeVries: It has come to the attention of the Department of Environmental Quality that there has been recent unauthorized activity on the above referenced parcel of property. You have been certified as the legal landowner and/or contractor who did the following unauthorized activity: Construction and maintenance of two wood debris dams across the outlet stream of Spring Pond. A permit must be issued prior to the start of this type of activity. A review of the Department's files shows that no permits have been issued. Therefore, the Department has determined that this activity is in violation of Part 301, Inland Lakes and Streams, of the Natural Resource and Environmental Protection Act, Act 451 of the Public Acts of 1994, being sections 324.30101 to 324.30113 of the Michigan Compiled Laws annotated. The Department has been informed that one or both of the dams partially failed during a recent rain event, causing debris and flooding at downstream locations. We find that dams of this nature are inherently hazardous and cannot be permitted. The Department therefore orders you to cease and desist all activities at this location, and to restore the stream to a free-flow condition by removing all wood and brush forming the dams from the stream channel. All restoration work shall be completed no later than January 31, 2002. Please notify this office when the restoration has been completed so that a follow-up site inspection may be scheduled by our staff. Failure to comply with this request or any further unauthorized activity on the site may result in this case being referred for elevated enforcement action. We anticipate and would appreciate your full cooperation in this matter. Please feel free to contact me at this office if you have any questions. Sincerely, David L. Price District Representative Land and Water Management Division "Never do tomorrow what you can do today." Response -------- Dear Mr. Price, Reference your certified letter dated 12/17/2000 has been referred to me to respond to. First of all, Mr. Ryan De Vries is not the legal landowner and/or contractor at 2088 Dagget, Pierson, Michigan. I am the legal owner and a couple of beavers are in the (State unauthorized) process of constructing and maintaining two wood "debris" dams across the outlet stream of my Spring Pond. While I did not pay for, authorize, nor supervise their dam project, I think they would be highly offended that you call their skillful use of natural building materials "debris." I would like to challenge your department to attempt to emulate their dam project any time and/or any place you choose. I believe I can safely state there is no way you could ever match their dam skills, their dam resourcefulness, their dam ingenuity, their dam persistence, their dam determination and/or their dam work ethic. As to your request, I do not think the beavers are aware that they must first fill out a dam permit prior to the start of this type of dam activity. My first dam question to you is: (1) Are you trying to discriminate against my Spring Pond Beavers? or, (2) do you require all beavers throughout this State to conform to said dam request? If you are not discriminating against these particular beavers, through the Freedom of Information Act I request completed copies of all those other applicable beaver dam permits that have been issued. Perhaps we will see if there really is a dam violation of P! art 301, Inland Lakes and Streams, of the Natural Resource and Environmental Protection Act, Act 451 of the Public Acts of 1994, being sections 324.3010,1 to 324.30113 of the Michigan Compiled Laws, annotated. I have several concerns. My first concern is aren't the beavers entitled to legal representation? The Spring Pond Beavers are financially destitute and are unable to pay for said representation - so the State will have to provide them with a lawyer. The Department's dam concern that either one or both of the dams failed during a recent rain event causing flooding is proof that this is a natural occurrence, which the Department is required to protect. In other words, we should leave the Spring Pond Beavers alone rather than harass them and call their dam names. If you want the stream "restored" to a dam free-flow condition - please contact the beavers - but if you are going to arrest them they obviously did not pay any attention to your dam letter (being unable to read English). In my humble ! opinion, the Spring Pond Beavers have a right to build their unauthorized dams as long as the sky is blue, the grass is green and water flows downstream. They have more dam right than I do to live and enjoy Spring Pond. If the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection lives up to its name, it should protect the natural resources (Beavers) and the environment (Beavers' Dams). So, as far as the beavers and I are concerned, this dam case can be referred for more elevated enforcement action right now. Why wait until 1/31/2002 The Spring Pond Beavers may be under the dam ice then, and there will be no way for you or your dam staff to contact/harass them then. In conclusion, I would like to bring to your attention a real environmental quality (health) problem in the area. It is the bears. Bears are actually defecating in our woods. I definitely believe you should be persecuting the defecating bears and leave the beavers alone. If you are going to investigate the beaver dam, watch your step! (The bears are not careful where they dump!) Being unable to comply with your dam request, and being unable to contact you on your answering machine, I am sending this response to your office via another government organization - the USPS. Maybe, someday, it will get there. Sincerely, Stephen L. Tvedten The University of Texas at: Austin Office Community Relations/Accounting unit P.O. Box 7367 Austin, TX 78713

that anyone would be mowing their lawn in the middle of March in Western NY . I just finished mowing and raking the front lawn and decided to get some lunch . I don't ever remember mowing this early in the year . At least I got it mowed before it snows again !

As far as the original pic goes , it's possible if the deer was bedded down during one of our windstorms . We have had some nasty winds this year .

I believe it would be considered "littering" !

I think the last pic was a racoon delivering a cat to a VietNamese restaurant ......

Muchas gracias Senor Slowhand ..........

.....working on you or a family member ? Respiratory therapists perform a variety of therapies and diagnostic tests to help patients who have problems breathing. Therapists may work with patients with asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and lung cancer. They also work with individuals who have problems breathing due to head trauma and smoke inhalation. Respiratory therapists may work with patients of every age, including babies born prematurely. They primarily work in hospitals; however, some therapists also work for pulmonary rehabilitation programs, respiratory equipment companies or provide home health services. Almost all states in the United States require a license to practice as a respiratory therapist. DWI-­Driving While Intoxicated BAC-­Blood Alcohol Content State Police in Wolcott reported that while at a two truck accident at Routes 104 and 104A in Wo l c o t t on Mon­day (3/5) at 4:30 p.m. a fire truck was blocking the road near Wa­ters Road to prevent traffic at the scene. A ve­hicle op­erated by Porfirio Vasquez, age 48, of Fancher Avenue in Fairhaven struck the parked fire truck. Vasquez was subse­quently arrested for Felony DWI/BAC and Aggravated DWI with a blood alco­hol level of .19%. Records show Vasquez has a prior DWI conviction in 2005 oin the Town of Wolcott making this arrest a felony. He was arraigned and remanded to jail on $1000 cash/$5000 bond and will reap­pear in Wolcott Court on March 15th. Vasquez told police he was on his way to work at a Rochester hospital where he is employed as a respiratory therapist.

Git 'r done !

My son had a Gar-Pike done there . It only took 1 1/2 years to do a damn fish . Nice job though . I believe the owner's name is Jeff Moses .

Since it fits on the ear like a BlueTooth , I wonder how much it will move out of place when jarred by a rifle shot , etc .. Anxious to see the results of the test .

I bought a Coleman SportCat Propane heater and it works great in a blind Coleman® SportCat™ Perfectemp™ Propane Heater with InstaStart™

I took them with a "MagPix" bino camera . It has 8X bino magnification and only 5X photo mag . I had purchased a couple of 10X bino cameras but if move the slightest bit with those , the pics are blurry . I like the MagPix for hunting .

See how it works when shooting a bow

Walked back into some woods that only the owner hunts . Took a couple pics of his hunting condo and then took a pic of a farmer's tri-pod hunting blind . Neither property owner let anyone hunt their properties . Took the pics with a Bino-Cam

Ditto !

With my last name being McDonald . it's a necessary item . I will have to add a NRA sticker to his outfit though . This is the pic we had on our Christmas cards in 1972 -------

I have that whole part of the basement . The outside dimensions are 14" X 24" . It has a pool table that no longer gets used except for stuff i pile on it . I have my hunting stuff stored in there and run a dehumidifier regularly . There is a desk , file cabinets for storage , etc .. No beer cooler or TV . I do my reloading there and don't want any distractions . I should have a Garage Sale and sell some of the stuff on the pegboard and in the cabinets but I will let my kids do that when I croak !

Right where Geno said ....... I hope this doesn't go to 15 pages

No anger . Some folks need the BIG print

Like Geno said ----- It's in the Taxidermy Forum
