I surely won't be buying it, Culver. Probably a good thing too, since you wouldn't want my type in your neighborhood! LOL The $1000 per acre I mentioned in my first post is probably very low for many places these days. I know in the Catskill, Hudson valley region it can go to $5K and up which is ridiculous. Only an idiot would spend that much for hunting land.

If it's land that you will eventually live on, maybe it's worth buying. To live on you surely don't need 100 acres. But to buy 100 acres just to hunt on for a few weeks each year is a waste of money. In NYS the price of land seems to be at least $1000 per acre in most places I've seen. That will add up to at least $100K in cost and taxes each and every year after that. For that kind of money I could go on some really nice hunts elsewhere until I die. Actually, I could probably go on a nice hunt each and every year with the amount I will need to pay for taxes alone on those 100 acres each and every year. I'll also have no headaches of running back and forth to the property to maintain it and monitor it throughout the rest of the year. That's how I see it anyway.

They don't need to come to town. There are young people out there still studying and performing their music 200 plus years after their deaths. I can guarantee you they won't be doing the same with the Stones music in 200 years. Maybe some of you should send me CD's of music played on a washboard and I'll tell you if I like it or not. LOL

I find it funny when I hear people in there 50's and 60's wanting to attend rock concerts. To me it's even funnier than having the 60 and 70 year olds performing on stage. At least those geezers are getting paid for it, eventhough they should probably give it up already. I wouldn't be caught dead at a rock concert, let alone spend money to see it. Never much of a fan of rock music. At my age now (or even 20 years ago) give me Mozart, Bach or the tons of other great classical music out there and I am a happy camper. For the most part I know that those performing it aren't brainfried over the hill 70 year olds who should have been put out to pasture 30 or more years ago! LOL

I know I replied to this thread last year, but I still fail to see any advantages to hunting with a bike. You guys must be hunting some very flat terrain, because if you were riding on anything a bit more hilly you would see the DISADVANTAGES. Riding in low gear on a steep hill with a gun and backpack on your back, you wouldn't be moving much faster than if you were walking. And it's not like you are riding on a paved surface. Plus, I'd just love to see someone quarter up a deer and ride out with it on their back. Easier said than done. I can assure you it would be WAY easier to do that on foot than on a bike.

Muslim holidays
steve863 replied to Mustang51js's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
When it comes to Israel, Jews are conservative and will side with anyone who is pro-Israel, but as a whole Jews in this country are very LIBERAL and have been for a LONG time. Sure you'll find a Jew who is conservative on all issues here or there, but the majority of them are very LIBERAL. If you would poll them on the issues that are near and dear to the conservatives persons heart, I'm sure most of you here would not like what you saw. -
Muslim holidays
steve863 replied to Mustang51js's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
If they are giving kids and teachers the days off for these religious holidays, how can it not be deemed as schools observing these holidays? You guys are nitpicking at the language they use, which is BS. If you guys want a manger scene in front of a school, then you need to send them to a religious affiliated school. You can't expect public schools to be teaching the various religions that are out there. I don't agree with this Muslim holiday being observed, but I highly doubt that kids will be reading from the Koran the day before it's observance. You guys make mountains out of mole hills. -

OK, so now you are starting to back pedal. LOL Schools have been closed for Yom Kippur. This past year it fell on a Saturday, though. -
Muslim holidays
steve863 replied to Mustang51js's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
I suggest you look again. The official NYC school calendar (which I posted above) makes mention of Rosh Hashanah, Christmas, Good Friday, Easter and Passover. I am in favor of observing these, but NOT in favor of observing the Muslim holiday, but you clowns (as is usual) are making some mighty big stretches here with the nonsense you are posting. -

http://schools.nyc.gov/NR/rdonlyres/13CCC114-2DC8-40F2-B79E-8ED316C3C1F7/0/20142015SchoolYearCalendar.pdf Here you go. For the Winter and Spring recess they mention Christmas, Good Friday and Easter. The kids get a whole week off here. They also note Rosh Hashanah. How else do they need to mention these religious holidays on the official calendar for you guys to be happy?? If it were a sunny day out and if what you thought was a liberal said "oh what a nice sunny day", you clowns would find a way to argue that what he was saying was false and untrue. You guys are insane, and that's pretty much the end of the story here. -

Now, I am not in support of observing these Muslim holidays, but as usual you don't know what you are talking about. NYC public schools observe Christmas, Good Friday, Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur. Are these not religious holidays?? -
I don't get them often, but I have gotten them. Usually it's in bed, when I am nice and calm. For me at least it gets triggered when I sort of try to stretch my leg muscles. It starts tightening up real fast where any move on my part makes the pain even worse. So you need to just stay as calm as possible and let the pain (which feels like someone is trying to remove the muscles from inside your leg without using a knife) pass. The first time or two I got them I didn't know what the hell was happening. Definitely a crazy feeling. Surely enough pain to make the sissy types cry out for their mamas!!

For a second I thought I had watched that one, but then I saw the PG rating. The one I saw was "Sexy and Silly Nurses" and that one was rated XXX. LOL

'net' neutrality
steve863 replied to philoshop's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
They probably recommended it to some of you guys because of all the bitching you do here on the internet. LOL -
Wooly, at least I am accepting of people with disabilities. LOL Soon, you'll have Papist and VJP come in and comment how your doctor is a pinko/liberal/communist and that his diagnosis was a dirty plot to brainwash you and take control of you. At least I am not doubting what you and your doctor are telling us about you! LOL
-
Wooly, we'll still love you eventhough there is something wrong with you!

I have not observed that the word "silly" is being used more often than in the past. If any words annoy me, it words like "hashtag", "tweet", and other modern nonsense like that. When I hear the media say that such and such a celebrity "hashtaged" or "tweeted" this or that I cringe. Like who gives a flying f--- what any of these clowns think or want to say?? Compared to this kind of nonsense, someone saying "silly" would be welcomed. Kids can be "silly". Nothing wrong with anyone saying that in my opinion.
-
I have no problem with a guy using the word "silly". It's in the dictionary, so I guess it can be used appropriately. I do however draw the line on men getting manicures and pedicures. Most especially if they are hunters. These dudes should be banned from the sport forever. These guys have some nerve gutting a deer with manicured fingernails! Now that is just too much to handle!!

To be told from his girlfriend or wife, "I'm not pregnant".

I honestly wish you guys lots of luck and happiness, but once you are legally married things are never as simple as before you were married. Actually statistics show that those who lived together before marriage have a higher rate of divorce than those who didn't. Again, not wishing you guys any bad luck, but if things were as simple as before marriage, I'd think those couples who have lived together for a while would have continued to be together for good, which doesn't seem to be the case. Some of us are just pointing out the things we have experienced being married, and mean no ill will. On a lighter note, when a single guy tells me he is about to get married, I always make it a point to go up to him and put a tape measure to his neck as if I were taking a measurement. Most guys ask me what am I doing, and I tell them that I am taking a measurement for the ball and chain that will soon be attached to it. LOL

Yeah, the song will go like this "He was at the bar crying in his beer, and on the way home he ran over a deer, and when he got home his honey kicked him out on his rear!" LOL

True, some people do continue partying with kids, but I know it gets old real fast for many people. With school, homework, after-school activities during the week, along with the parents day jobs, most parents these days are pretty worn out by the weekend. I myself enjoy spending time with the wife and kids, but ask me to go to a party or throw one and I start losing interest real fast.
-
I hope you are right, but things change once you are married and also with age. The couples you are hanging out with now, will be having kids, maybe you guys will too, and the partying will be over for sure. Also for many women, the standards change for what they expect from a husband in comparison to what they expected from a boyfriend/fiance(and this is NOT a bad thing). If and when you might have kids the standards will DEFINITELY change. You won't be out until 4 AM very often while she is home with the kids. Very few women will live with that for the long term.

Biz, aren't you getting married this coming Spring/Summer? I can guarantee you that your hang out days are quickly coming to an end!!

I don't know, I think I'd have to see a newborn fawn in November before I'd believe someone telling me that it can happen. Hell, deer have their Fall/Winter fur on already in November, I couldn't imagine a doe dropping a newborn at this stage of her annual life cycle. I guess we can never say never, but I would think this would be an EXTREMELY rare occurrence.
