Had to search, didn't know anything about Dead Air. Link to article showing how they used a Harbor Freight snap ring tool to install/remove. Scroll just over halfway down: Dead Air YMMV

I can't figure out what is going on. No link in Tony's post, link works in elcy's post. No link in Tony's post about the Darwin Awards either.

No link, nothing but blank space. It must be fake if nothing is there.

That's what I understand also. It's been many years since I've been stopped, so I don't have any personal experience. Remember, cruise control is your friend.

Not criticizing, just stating my opinion(s). What "they" don't know can't hurt you. I've never been asked nor had to prove where I've obtained a weapon by anyone except for a few friends. The local LEO could care less when you get stopped, he just wants to know if you are or are not armed when he initiates a stop. I don't lie, but I'm not volunteering any information until asked.

You're not that far from Sedona. Probably some hippies waiting on the moronic convergence.

Sent you a message Bill

Local rancher passed on. You may or may not have heard of him. Great guy. https://www.everhere.com/us/obituaries/az/benson/jack-post-10380450?utm_expid=.RtQ1vlSiRmeNbIxRImrXHw.0&utm_referrer=

I know that town, it was my home away from home when I lived in GJ. Very cool to watch. Thanks, Tony.

Southwest of Parker Canyon Lake going towards Canelo Hills/Lochiel. Almost to the border. Can't remember the name of the ranch, it's a fair bit east of San Rafael. L&C

My $.02 for what it's worth. Set the new bowl on sanded tile grout. Put some Saran Wrap between the bowl and grout in case you ever need to remove it down the road, just make sure you cut the wrap around the wax ring. Good luck.

Stick by your guns, Tony. You have your reasons. It's too easy to say something that can be misrepresented and feed the trolls, it takes more courage to refrain or delete what should not be said until the appropriate time.

Compass, GPS, rangefinder and landmarks. Take a reading of direction towards the animal with your compass and rangefinder, GPS coordinate of where you took your shot. Start hiking and when you are 180 degrees direction back to your shot location, you need to extend or decrease your range along that line. I usually tie something conspicuous to a bush/tree so I can find my shot position with my glass. Good luck.

Don't have a decent pic, but in the middle of summer in the middle of the morning 25-06 and I saw a bear cross a creek in the lower desert by the Santa Ritas. Couldn't really tell how big he/she was. I can tell you it was hot that day.

All I've ever found in the way of rock is leverite... As in leave'er right there, ain't worth messin' with...

1) Hello. My name is Francis and I would hunt for a living if I could make it pay. 2) Hello. My name is Francis and I sell internet guide tips for a living. 3) Hello. My name is Francis and I pilot commercial aircraft when I am not out scouting for the next set of bones. 4) Hello. My name is Francis and I am a flooring contractor when I am not hunting. 5) Hello. My name is Francis. DILLIGAF. Will the real Francis please stand up? Sorry, Francis. Your name just has that ring to it.

Close, but not quite. Human error, starting at the top, yes. I have to add this... It's been reported that 100,000 ships traverse the Straits of Malacca every year, carrying 25% of the worlds cargo. 100,000 ships / (24 hrs x 365 days/year) = 11.4 ships/hour passing a given point. If the average speed is 18 knots (20.7 mph, 36,423 yds/hr), there should be enough room for 18.21 ships/hour at 2000 yds separation between ships. Since the traffic is both directions, and the Strait at it's narrowest point is 1.5 nautical miles wide (3,040 yds), there could be a separation of 6400 yds along the direction travelled and still enough room port/port for the ship going the opposite direction. More than enough room if the crew was well trained. Bill

Not a sailor but,... Heads will roll. The captain of the USS Fitzgerald has had his butt handed back to him, along with a few others. We can thank NoBamma for gutting the Navy and making it a PC place to work rather than earning your position by showing you have what it takes, and if you don't have what it takes, you don't get promoted. That said, the problem is systemic. The older hands have retired, and nobody is training the new hands. The older hands retired because of politics within the navy, and decided to get out while they were still alive. The USS McCain is an Arleigh-Burke class destroyer, but it handles almost like a corvette (the type of ship, not car). There is no excuse for this to happen. From another forum, this is what is said about the new Navy, ................................................................................................. In the Navy I served in, you had to matriculate to command. A very demanding qualification process. Demonstrate control and ability, spend many hours under instruction, with supervision, literally thousands of hours on lesser watch stations, without a screw up, just to be allowed to screen for a command billet. You really didn't know your job until you had taught a subordinate to do it well. People who qualified for a command were well versed in life at sea, knew how to train others in this chosen profession. knew well the job, demands and responsibilities placed on every man under their command. Then came the "new Navy". We don't have enough smart sailors, "let's lower the requirements, so we can get more sailors qualified" became the order of the day. By the time this logic was firmly entrenched, I was pretty senior and being chastised for being "demanding" and known as a "career blocker" (if you can't do the job, you can't have it) Fast forward 25 years and you have the equivalent of handing whisky and car keys to teen agers. Today's Captains are not capable of leaving a berth, making a 3500 mile journey, finding a specific port and safely docking the ship. They routinely injure and kill sailors, under their command, for lack of knowledge and training. They seem to have lots of excuses, but very little skill. Because they never learned ship handling skills, they run into other ships, run aground, sail blindly into heavy weather better avoided, and qualify subordinate officers and enlisted's without the training or experience required to do the job at hand, safely. Our elected leader (O'Bummer) dumbed down / gutted the senior officer corps, destroyed the department of the Navy and placed our children in harms way, for no good reason. There is now no one to train the young sailors. Even the CPO community is now bereft of training and experience. (I remember when Chief's ran the Navy and officers signed off on the job) My most difficult job was to build useful officers from Ensigns. I'm sorry I got off on such a rant, but it does help explain why our ships persist in running into ships that they should be 2000 yards from. Merchantmen are known to be running on autopilot, in the dark, with no lookouts posted or proper lights displayed. A competent Officer of the deck knows to keep well clear of radar contacts and wake the Captain if a contact is acting erratically. I'm told, by young sailors, that many Captains no longer write standing night orders. They get the blissful sleep of the ignorant. I sure do wish they would quit pissing away my tax money. ........................................................................................ Bill

Sorry to hear about your situation. Prayers sent. Sorry, I don't know of any lawyers that fit what you are looking for. Best of luck to you and yours.

Catclaw? What's that? We don't need no stinkin' catclaw.

You go, girl. Keep after it until you master it. Xena has to fix her snowmobile by herself. It's what her Dad taught her. http://www.history.com/shows/ice-road-truckers/videos/xena-and-her-skidoo Bill Merry Christmas!

For My Friend, Leroy, on the right. To every season There is a time, and a Time for every season under the heavens A time to give birth And a time to die A time to plant And a time to uproot that which is planted We gather here today, a place you know and love so well, to spread your ashes to the wind, so that God may carry you to the four Corners of the globe. We trust in God that you are at peace For there is no one else to turn to. We trust in God that spreading your ashes will bring us peace, For there is no one else to turn to. Rest In Peace, Leroy, Rest In Peace. Redington is your home now. Bill

Congrats, Charlie. Well Done! Bill

Great write up. Thanks for sharing your story. Congrats to you and your family on the harvest. Bill On edit, love all the pics. It took me a minute, but I found the buck in the glass.
