Bigfoot, don't want to derail the thread, but as my wife and I are strongly considering moving south in 2-5 years, I'm wondering if there was a triggering event to get you fed up with NY? Or just a general accumulation of NYBS?

We never hit our kids, but did do the grounding thing. My youngest daughter in her teens was similar to you. I'd ground her her for a week over some small thing, and she say "that doesn't bother me", I'd add another week, nope, she didn't care. That would progress to a month or so, and then no phone calls, TV, internet and all the while her acting defiant and me explaining "consequences". And only because she'd taunt that anything I came up with would have no effect. Our oldest daughter used to just laugh at her and ask her why she doesn't quit while she's ahead. Today - youngest daughter lives a good life with a growing family, makes her living in law enforcement, and takes no poop from anyone.

Never was lucky enough to just get the corner. Got the belt from Dad, and the wooden spoon from Mom. If I popped off to Mom, I'd get slapped in the face and told not to talk back. Can you imagine if that was today? Mom and Dad would be ostracized on social media, and I'd be off in some CPS facility!

Anybody remember these? Couldn't bring them to school or they would be taken away - don't remember the reason for that.

I just saw on the Sherriff's Facebook page that they got the guy related to the screaming woman. He's from Rathbone, and they followed him and the woman there to arrest him.

Be aware that a real estate agent may not care for the timber sale first scenario as by selling off an asset prior to listing, it will reduce his potential commission.

You'll need a consulting forester. Don't know of any except one of my neighbors who is retired for several years. A consulting forester will inventory your timber and solicit bids from loggers. He'll get a commission or flat fee on the sale for doing that.

I remember that post - at the time I didn't know that corned beef (venison) made pastrami. Been wanting to try that since I read your post.

I'm thinking old cable box? Our first one had a dial instead of buttons, but I think the range of numbers was the same.

Happy Birthday!

It really is super easy. Mixing and boiling the brine mix took all of a half hour. Then when it cooled, just soak the roast in it for 5-7 days, and then boil for 3-4 hrs (I went for 4). Very little work for such good results. The only other work was to trim off any outside silverskin from the thawed roast which took all of a couple of minutes. It was recommended on some recipes that I flip the roast every day. I forgot to do that until Tuesday evening. I started soaking it the previous Sunday morning and cooked it the following Saturday evening.

Sorry for your loss, Swamp Bucks.

I think so. I’m careful with food prep in general as I seem to get food illnesses easily at times. Seems different to leave a big chunk of meat sitting around for a week, so besides the recipes saying brine it in the refrig, I felt the need to keep it cold. Had venison Reuben sandwiches from the leftovers last night. Was just as good on the second day. I’ve still got 2 or 3 roasts in the freezer, might get another one going next week for a St. Patty’s day dinner!

Choot 'em!

I tried this for the first time this week and cooked it last night. Wow, it turned out great! Hands down, one of the best roasts I ever made. Brined a shoulder roast in the fridge for six days and boiled it last night. No plate pics as we dug into it too quickly, was fall-apart tender. Didn’t follow any one particular recipe for the brine, rather I read a few different ones and freestyled it. Very easy prep for such a good dish! Going to try the next one in the smoker for pastrami.

Might still be able to make it happen, we said we’d do something, but haven’t planned anything yet. This could be part of that something!

Potential toughie for me that weekend, the 14th is our 40th wedding anniversary. Kind of a biggie for us. Anybody thinking about bringing spouses? She may be up for it for a day, but I know she wouldn’t want to be the only one.

I’d love to see that!

Great shots. Love the yawning one. Did you catch that just right or use continuous? Either way, great timing!

Send it!

Nice, nice, nice!

Storm, you really need to back off on bringing religion into this. Whatever anyone's personal beliefs (whether it involves a creator or not) should be no business of yours. I find religious discrimination offensive. Please stop before you get on another one of your rolls.

I don't think Storm is chicken. My theory is that he's famous and just doesn't want to let on that he's a member of this forum..
