  1. Rattler you've got to be kidding! A white chair is absolutely required to be all inclusive is it not? I saw this and was immediately "triggered". My heartbeat sped up, my mouth got dry and I briefly considered calling the police. I felt ostracized and subordinate. The racial injustice exhibited by this display was almost too much for my caucasian brain to process. Somehow I managed however, to summon the courage from within to fight this social inequality! When the owner of the property stepped out from behind his fence and we made eye contact I almost lost my mettle. His tie dye shirt, birkenstocks and dreadlocks were very very intimidating. His pale white legs and skinny arms almost made me turn and runaway. I held it together though! "Good morning" I said sheepishly. "Good morning" he replied. "Nice display" I said, "It's very powerful" Beaming with a broad smile he says "Its supposed to be. We need unity and inclusiveness to fight for justice. These are very bad times." Pondering my response for moment I asked his permission to make a comment. "Yes" "Where's the white chair?" I queried. For a second he looked like a dog in quizzical wonderment. You know when a dog looks at you and tilts its head back and forth trying to process a command? His smile immediately faded. I think I even heard him huff in disdain. "You need to get a white chair and put it right next to that dark one in the middle" I said. "We all need to learn to get along right?" He looked at me, rolled his eyes and walked back down his driveway. Thank god he didnt become violent! I took a long drag off my Camel light, calmed myself down and got the hell out of the area. I don't go looking for trouble, somehow it just finds me.
  2. Seriously?!?! I thought it might take a bit for someone to make note of it but Engraver nailed it within 30 minutes of me posting! I should have known better lol. Yes indeed, we are missing a white chair.
  3. I had an hour to kill this afternoon before attending a commencement. Cruising around a neighboring village I found myself on a very stately side street. I was admiring the nice architecture, the very neat and nicely done landscaping. Some very what I would call "classy" homes. I was impressed. Then I saw something that caught my eye. I travelled on but knew I had to turn around, go back and get a pic. I can assure you this is an original pic, taken by myself today! I took the pic from the street and from inside my car. I did crop and zoom it to better illustrate the subject matter but it's not been altered and it's not from the net. I thought something was missing from the display. Look closely and tell us what you think might be missing. Please keep your responses clean lol. Bonus points awarded for hunting humor and mentions of semi-auto weapons. Know ahead of time however that I already have you beat. I had a quick chat with the person that set it up and it was epic . . .
  4. Congratulations. A great accomplishment and the first of many for your son I'm sure. My oldest will be doing the same in a week.
  5. Utica Craigslist. Not mine but if anyone's interested I can look at it for you. Pressure Canner - farm & garden - by owner - sale https://utica.craigslist.org/grd/d/utica-pressure-canner/7132151231.html
  6. Exactly. But not for the reasons I think you're proposing. Those "descendants" have been systematically lectured to for years and years, through misinformation, reckless public policy and now professional political organizations, that grievance, even resulting in violence, is justified for retribution of past wrongs. The "oppressed" are constantly reminded and continually agitated to believe that their place in human society isn't equal to others. That opportunities and "rights" are still being denied them based on color or gender or some other percieved bias, even after years and years of attempted reconciliation and countless social and financial policies to make amends and move forward. Unfortunately certain societal groups will always be subject to and accept the rhetoric and hyperbole of "leaders" and activists to keep the cause for "justice", even though phantom, alive well and ongoing. There has always been substantial money and power to be gained in manipulating the naive, none more than now.
  7. No. High cbg and cbd hemp. Completely legit. Our group doesn't screw with the NYS system. The ridiculous thing is there could be a flat of 420 mixed in and you simply could not tell the difference. From seed to harvest they look, grow and smell the same. At least that's what I'm told It's simply a matter of the chemical composition at time of testing. Classification as hemp or 420 is based on a completely arbitrary by weight percentage the fed's dreamt up. Too much THC = weed. Less than 0.3% is hemp. Other than the chemical makeup the plants are very very similar.
  8. When I had a family at home I canned quite a few quarts. Now that it's just me and the gf pints are plenty. Good thing with a quart is that your second helping of protein can keep in the fridge for awhile after the jar is opened. Chicken and venison are staples we always have. We've also canned ground venison, lean ground beef and ground pork. Wild turkey legs were not the greatest haha. Most of the time it's just salt and a flavor cube added. Gives you options at cook time. I tend to go mild on the spices in the jars and add later if need be. That being said check the web. Many many recipes out there from mild to wild. We ran venison pints once with perhaps 5 different recipes, one or two jars of each kind. All were good but we ended up liking just the straight up salt and I think it was a taco version best. If its fresh protein you can can it. If you keep clean and always follow a proven recipe you're good to go. Also, like you said, a great reason to knock over an Oct. doe!
  9. Excellent job! That's good stuff right there. Very versatile long term eats! Just a suggestion, you might want to put up a run of pints instead of all quarts. There's a bunch of bird in a one quart jar!
  10. They are very solid. We have 4 total.
  11. It's usually a people problem not a dog problem. That said I know of two dogs as we speak that need to go immediately but I wouldnt personally waste the $0.20 for the two shells. I might have been 10 or 12 and remember watching my grandfather one day walk the barn dog across the field and into the woods. Leash in one hand, 2x4 in the other. He came back 10m later, hung the leash up and we went and did chores. He was a very very caring dairy farmer and Christian man but had zero tolerance for any animal that couldn't be trusted. Again, a majority of time it's not the animal but the owner. But every once in awhile there's a dog behavior that needs to be taken out of the gene pool.
  12. My gardens' a little different and a little larger. Last week we planted 136k high CBG and CBD plants. Pic shows 45k in one of the greenhouses. Gonna be real busy in 4 weeks lol.
  13. Cool thread. My gf's container garden on our balcony. Couple peppers, tomatoes, peas and what not. I supplied the soil. She does her own thing w the veggies.
  14. Turkey hunting has been frustrating so I took a break and filled another bucket. These things dont run from my calls like the birds do lol.
  15. My thoughts are w you. Tough times dont last but tough people do.
  16. Kids and time blow by so fast! Blink and they're gone, just my experience fwiw. I'll also volunteer to assist in raising her from the dead. Have tools and a Kawi affliction so I travel lol. I call dibs on the test ride though, pending tires of course . . .
  17. I used to feel that way too but not so much nowadays. I curse at myself a little and quite a bit more at the bird lol, shake my head and smile and try again tomorrow. You had a great chance and it didnt come together today, no worries, it just makes it that much sweeter when you do connect!
  18. Excellent. Well done! I'd say you also know what you're doing. Very nice bird.
  19. "Out of an abundance of caution and concern for the integrity of your personal and confidential information" I got the email. Yeah right. Thanks a friggin lot. When I get hacked in the next 6-12-18 months, who do I call at NYS Labor to help me repair my finances? Unacceptable incompetence on the part of NYS. Again.
  20. Excellent pics. Very informative.

  22. I think it was 2006 a friend showed up at work w a roadkill one in the trunk of his car. Spring 2010 I saw one in the woods scouting birds, thick pines, came slinking along. Very close and watched it for a minute or two. They're big from ground level! Absolutely silent on their feet. Last week i left the car in the darkness on a walk for turks. I hear this damn screaming, again and again, and I'm thinking what in the holy heck is that? Fisher! Very distinctive wail. My friend who owns the property asked if I'd heard em. Yep! Very cool creatures. Getting more common? Just stay away from my poults!
