I grew up in Rhode Island with no garage and in a Raised Ranch (finished basement making it a "two story"). We had a shed for tools and what not and cleaned the cars off every morning. Texas you just make room for cars or use it all for poo poo and park in front...Also attics are much larger. Cheaper to build up than down/out.

I bought one of those tuff sheds last year. 10x10 barn style. Bad idea. Now it's just filled with poo poo I don't want to organize.

Redirects the flash forward instead out to the sides. Makes shooting at night not so vision degrading. It's kind of problem with shorter barrel rifles.

It does gently caress all for hiding were the shot is coming from. That poo poo is for the movies.

Here's some stuff that I bought for an upcoming trip to Montana that a select few weirdos like myself care about :


Lamson Speedster fly reel that will be paired with:



This in progress custom Epic fiberglass rod.

Also got an Orvis Superfine rod and a guide sling.





I spent way too much but I got "deals" on everything and I'm ridiculously excited.

Nice stuff! I was fishing on the Madison last October and was tearing them up with a 2 inch rainbow trout pattern rappala shore wadding. Got some pretty explosive bites with a mid speed retrievel just a few inches beneath the surface.
In other words if you get too lazy or frustrated doing the fly thing that's an option.

A ludicrous amount to pay for one of the worse triggers I've ever had the misfortune to feel. Interesting design but felt cheap. Felt like shooting wet farts which is actually the nice thing about it.

I went in for the interview and low and behold he called out sick, misplaced my paperwork and the department wouldnt reschedule since they had replacement interviewers. Oh by the way do you have a copy of your resume? Oh no? Ok please recite from memory your job, school and references from memory starting.... now. Threw me off my game pretty good.

Yes,they can eventually become SBR's once a tax stamp is obtained. Most people keep it in pistol config during their wait for a tax stamp, which can be as long as 6+ months. But in California we cannot have SBR's at all so this is the next best option.

You can't have a pistol with a detachable magazine outside the grip. I have yet to see anyone with a bulletbutton version of an AR pistol but I'm sure some dork has.

We also have some dumb rule about maximum pistol weights that may come up.

A quick way to have yummy potatoes in the morning is to bake them the night before then place them in your fridge. In the morning just slice them up, season to taste and fry back to hot (preferably in some bacon grease you already cooked).

Thanks. When I found out he wanted to learn about model rockets I got super excited for the same reason and immediately ordered that easy kit. I think he'll have a hell of a time.

Strap the engines to remote control cars. I remember that being a lot of fun until we crashed one into a bush and almost caught it on fire.

From a salesman, we were going to get a Dyson but we also wanted a decent shampooer, and once you include those it gets expensive enough to consider a Kirby. We were able to negotiate down a decent amount (still stupidly expensive) and it's really simple to dismantle to remove all the hair that clogged our previous vacuums and shampooer.

Plus, the wife is happy, and our puppy discovered that it's fun to pee on the carpet as we hook up his leash to go outside... it's getting used pretty often. We can return it within a short timeframe, can't remember how long, but it's probably going to stay here.

You monster you shouldn't return puppies even if they do spring a leak.
