Lukashenko has supplied thousands of tons of material, equipment, and armaments to Russia. What he has failed to do is send Russia meat for the grinder. I think this movement of Wagner troops into Belarus, where the military warehouses are bare is a message to Lukashenko to provide said meat or there will be repercussions. CHIEF

I remember the first day of my Freshman year Eastern Civ I class. The first thing my professor said was, "the Chinese will eat anything that doesn't eat them first." CHIEF

One would think that they would carry at least a six shot revolver on that shitcan. You could choose to keep up the good fight, and hope to be rescued, or choose to go out with a bang. CHIEF

My BIL has one, and he loves it. However, the tolerances weren't very close between the barrels and carrier, it now has blow by. It has lasted a good 20 years though. The newer ones may have fixed the problem. CHIEF

Just a cheap Truglo. Still a $300-400 scope. I actually like it. He said he put a cheaper scope on it, since it is probably going to be removed for a thermal. He was right. CHIEF

I went and picked up the AR I won, thinking it would probably be just a $400 Palmetto State or something similar. Boy was I wrong. The gunsmith is an old retired Nuclear Engineer, and building out custom rifles is his hobby/obsession. So, what he donated was an AR with an Aero lower, custom Garrison trigger, and a Faxon custom barrel. He told me to insure it for $2300, as that is what it would cost to replace it. He said that since he built it, it has a lifetime warranty for as long he is able to keep gunsmithing. Also, it came with the case, and five boxes of .300 BLK ammo. https://pikeprecisionarms.com His specialty is 1911s, and AR platform. The Faxon barrel is supposed to be the most accurate barrel made in .300 BLK. It has five groves instead of six in the rifling, and they are "dovetailed" in design, grip the bullet better, and have a better gas seal. CHIEF

Only child, CHIEF Jr. is an only as well. I have shit from my maternal grandfather, my late father, my late FIL, the shit I've bought, and the shit CHIEF Jr. has bought. Gun safe is full, and there are probably a half dozen guns under each bed. Told CHIEF Jr. he has to build a gun "vault" when he builds his house, a gun safe will not cut it. Feels like this: CHIEF

With the Sargassum problem in the Caribbean and Gulf, right now, the west side of Cozumel will probably be one of the few cruising destinations without fucked up, stinky beaches. The problem, and the reason you have the Walmart crowd, is you can go 3-4 days for under $300/person, and for 7 days for under $500. That's just as cheap as staying at home. Every ship, out of Galveston, always makes a trip to Cozumel. The tourist traps at the end of the cruise ship piers are a spectacle to behold. https://www.carnival.com/cruise-search?pageNumber=1&numadults=4&port=GAL&pagesize=8&sort=fromprice&showBest=true&=undefined&gad=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwhJukBhBPEiwAniIcNeRnAq715AvGzOjeIU0exybuiGfk9NqqrNQduclid5FczgiTmfPoHhoCcFcQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds If they are just "beach" people and not necessarily the "swim in the ocean types," I would just book all inclusive to Cabo. There will be Walmart types, there, as well. But you can avoid them since you are not cooped up on a ship with them. CHIEF

That looked like one of those giant shotgun shell bombs with the 186,000 tungsten BBs. CHIEF

I can send a prayer for MAC to go kick Pat in the nards, but to be honest, I have a feeling they are in two very different places. Matthew 18:6 6 And do not lead astray one of the weak and friendless who believes in Me. If you do, it would be better for you to be dragged down with a millstone and drowned in the bottom of the sea. CHIEF

Family Heirlooms & Shit You Wont Ever Let Get Out Of Your Bloodline.
CHIEF replied to ROFL BOX's topic in Daily Texan
This was a great topic to resurrect. We just cleaned out my late in-laws house, in Cedar Park, last weekend and closed on the sale yesterday. There were 50 years of shit packed in there. Both of them were pack rats. My SIL is one, as well, and pretty much felt entitled to everything. We nearly filled a pickup, she filled two pickups and a 20' cattle trailer. She was going to take the new washer and dryer, but Mrs. CHIEF let her know that she bought them for her mother with her own money, so they were off limits, as well as a beautiful antique china cabinet that my wife snagged for our niece. I kept hearing Mrs. CHIEF yelling, "FUCK." I went to see what the problem was. Apparently there is this feature on Google where you take a picture of something you have, it searches the internets for it, and tells you what it is worth. So there was a bunch of shit that was worth not throwing away. There was one bowl that was worth $1250, some cherry blossom depression glass, some high dollar figurines. Shit that she can sell for a lot of money is what we brought home, as we helped her sister load the Walmart entertainment center with broken shelves for the 3 1/2 hour drive back to Tyler. Of course, the SIL starts asking about shit she cannot find. SIL: Where is the Waterford Crystal punch bowl set? Mrs. CHIEF: Don't know. (Its been at our house for 15 years) SIL: Where are granddaddy's chaps? Mrs. CHIEF:Don't know. (Been at our house for 10 years) SIL: Where is granddaddy's accordion? Mrs. CHIEF: Don't know (been in my gun safe for 5 years) Thats just the tip of the iceberg. CHIEF -
I never win raffles. But a family friend that is on our HOA wildlife committee (we have so many deer that they trap about 1500 a year)badgered me into buying six tickets for $100. I told her I didn't really need anymore guns. Well, I won. So I'm getting an AR chambered in .300 blk. So now I have to get a new can chambered for .30. So out another $1200ish. CHIEF

Shit. We got a lot of bars in Granbury, but the consistent numero uno is the Chili's bar. Not big enough to have an Applebee's yet, we can only aspire. If you are here, just to drink in Granbury, those would be the cheapest spots for decent booze. 10K or under population, those are the safe bets. CHIEF
-
Of course. In the San Antonio thread, he said his family thought Applebee's was pretty "high cotton", and ate there for special occasions. After oil prices collapsed in 1985, my spot was Long John Silver's. Just acknowledging a kindred spirit, in a slight ball busting way. I totally understand. CHIEF

After watching cruisers disembark from the pier in Cozumel a couple of weeks ago, I would have to say Carnival and Disney have to be the run away leaders on 400 lb. bald guys with tribal tattoos, and 250 lb. wives in thong bikinis. I have only went on one cruise. It was the Alaskan cruise on Celebrity. It was pretty good. But I really don't ever want to go on another, but that would be the one to go on. The time in port is way too short. Not really enough time to do anything but their shitty excursion racket, or shop for tourist shit. I'm sure it is designed that way so the cruise line can get a cut of it. CHIEF

Very true. I know several dudes that graduated with CHIEF Jr. that still want the kind of wool they pulled in high school. Only now, they are college dropouts, working dead end jobs for $40k/year. They went from Biff before Marty's dream, to Biff after. They need to hit the gym, eat right, and get their ass in a trade school. Union plumbers, electricians, and metal workers make a very comfortable living. CHIEF

Watched a bit of it on YouTube. The ones I saw were decent to handsome guys (granted I only watched maybe 3-4 videos). It sounds like they weren't going so much because they couldn't get laid, but more to the point, had never been in a relationship with a women in which the woman's infidelity did not end the relationship. These dudes are looking for wives, someone to settle down with. I think fidelity is more important to them than maintaining the household. Another thing some of the guys brought up, was never leave your foreign girlfriend's country, or her family. If you bring them back to the US, the relationship will probably not work out. Makes me think of Eddie Murphy on his "Raw" comedy show all the way back in the 80's where his African girlfriend wanted her half. He told her she was naked riding a zebra when he found her. If you look at the divorce thread in IWPIHB, or go back and read the "Population Decline" thread in this forum, you start to see some societal changes that were well intentioned, but have spawned some negative consequences. College educated women refusing to marry men without, at least, the same or higher level of education, and a higher income level, or divorcing their husband that paid for that education after they received it is commonplace. It happened to my best friend. Average women getting a booty call from a horny guy that is out of their league only to think that is the kind of guy that is her new norm and not the exception. American women are way out of touch with what their true looks are able to draw for a stable, longterm relationship. I bet there are several thousand women on social media, all over two bills, that say they are a "10". Completely out of touch with reality. However, the biggest culprit, I truly believe, is social media. It was easy for us old dudes to "shoot your shot" back in the day, when a rejection was simply kept between the approacher, and the "approachee." Now, chicks blast it to all of their mutual friends in their social circle, how "Larry" was such a creep and had the audacity to hit me up. Next thing we see is the rejected doing something crazy (mass shootings, murder, suicide).People say some wicked, and mean-hearted shit behind the safety of their keyboard, just look at Surly. I don't necessarily agree with the "passport bros", but I understand. I'm lucky, found a levelheaded woman and will be married for 30 years in August. I can't imagine dating and trying to find a "till death do us part" partner in today's environment. CHIEF

Here is the guy that you want: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064650193657 Tater Pogue with TaterToys in Huntsville. We have problems with our frame wanting to bend backwards pushing the tires over large rock ledges. It is slightly bent at this time. This is the guy CHIEF Jr. wants to do the framework (which would require a 6 hour run each way). He also does reinforcement kits that he welds in place, but he can fix you right up. He isn't cheap, but it will be better than what you will get for your Ranger if you try to sell it with a bent frame. CHIEF

A tuna salad on toasted white bread is one of the greatest sandwiches ever. However, restaurants still have nothing on Mrs. CHIEF's tuna salad. Her's is very simple albacore tuna, boiled eggs, real mayo, onion, pickles, and about a third of a jar of the pickle brine. A large dash or three of lemon pepper and lime pepper seasoning. CHIEF

MaybeACoordinator has passed away - Official Farewell Thread
CHIEF replied to Brisketexan's topic in Daily Texan
Saw a FaceBook post, this morning, from the Bosque County Genealogical and Historical Society. They were at the Meridian Cemetery showing members how to clean headstones. The headstone they were cleaning in the photos, was James Avery and Susan Frances Lomax. These were MAC's paternal great grandparents. I figured MAC called in a favor from God. CHIEF- 606 replies
