  1. My mom said they had brains and eggs most mornings and occasionally sweetbreads, when she was growing up. CHIEF
  2. Save a left ventricle for me Clark. CHIEF
  3. I still fire up my little homemade yakitori grill every 2-3 weeks and cook a dozen skewers of chicken hearts basted with Tare sauce. I'm not sure there is a better bite, on the planet, for the cost. They are cheap enough that I boil a whole 1 lb.+/- package each week as dog treats. CHIEF
  4. I have a Crosman Phantom in .177 with a cheap Simmons scope. It is accurate enough for eye shots out to about 35 yards. It is subsonic by about 7ft/sec. I tried to link one from Bass Pro Shop, and Cabela's, but they no longer have them in stock, so no price. I don't think I have $200 in the gun and scope. It was less than half the price of the Gamo, if I remember correctly. CHIEF
  5. Bullshit. Its the outside skirt, ain't ya been reading'? CHIEF
  6. Central Market? You need to hit up a good carniceria. I get five pounds of outside skirt that you can hold up and read a newspaper through for about $10-12/lb. from La Puebla in Cleburne. They just opened a carniceria in Granbury, have yet to hit it. I figured this was the route you used, as well. Are the carnicierias just not carrying it in Austin? CHIEF
  7. He lived long enough to have to change the title of “Love Gun” from “Love Musket.” CHIEF
  8. Let this be a lesson to all of you that "Rock n Roll all night, and party everyday." You might only live for three-quarters of a century. CHIEF
  9. Everything was fine and dandy until the tail rotor comes flying off at 00:19. CHIEF
  10. CHIEF replied to CHIEF's topic in Hobbies
    Once in a lifetime find right there. Absolutely stunning. CHIEF
  11. We decided not to lease the place in Strawn, again, this year. Too much money to be surrounded by hunters that won't let a deer live past 3.5yo. They are also putting in a wind farm on the acreage, they have about 20 sites surveyed off, and two sites that are within shooting distance of where our blind was at. Don't blame the rancher, he could use the money. CHIEF Jr. has a buddy that he wake surfs with every Thursday, he works at Rough Creek Lodge. The perks out there are killer. He gets 50% off of anything he purchases. He, CHIEF Jr. and another couple of friends went on an Upland Gamebird hunt last Thursday, and it was $225/person with no limit on birds, just a limit on time. They shot five pheasant, four chukars, and thirty one quail. They clean, vacuum seal, and flash freeze them for you. So a really good deal. I'm going next time. Rough Creek is the first deer lease I can ever remember our family leasing. A lot of great stories. Its were the "shocked bird dog" story happened that I've told on here. We had a thousand acres to deer hunt, and 10,000 acres to quail hunt. The lakes had never really been fished when we leased it. I think we are going to do their Ultimate Rod and Gun Club with what we would have spent on the deer lease. https://www.roughcreek.com/memberships/ultimate-rod-gun-club/ The high school buddy that works out there is the head bartender, he said he would comp any drinks we ever ordered, which would sweeten the pot. We can hunt deer at the Lodge, but CHIEF Jr. and I both have other places to hunt. He has a spot in Mason, I have one in Iowa Park, near Wichita Falls. I will have a better chance of killing something big. My buddy, up there, shot an 8 1/2 year old with his bow on Tuesday that scored 168 (on the decline), and weighed 277 on the hoof. CHIEF
  12. It does seem odd. I chalked it up to a Ukranian engineer that was employed there, at one time, that was high up enough to know the complete inner workings of the plant. Hell, it might have been a Ukranian contractor that built it. As for the air defense, they have dealt with it for four years, and probably know the timing from watching Russian reaction times to have a good idea of how to defeat it. CHIEF
  13. This was absolutely brilliant. Ukes knew boot up and target acquisition time on Russian AA, even knew exactly where to hit, and the time it took valves to close. This was Russia's big chemical plant that makes the propellent for rocket engines, and ammonium nitrate for artillery shells. CHIEF
  14. If they would have taken Amtrak, and scheduled to arrive on Friday, they would probably arrive tomorrow. Which in retrospect, would not have been a bad thing. CHIEF
  15. I'm sure this will get some negs, but, Art Briles is tan, rested, and ready. Just watch him like a hawk, and don't let him near the women folk. CHIEF
  16. We might be above that, I don't know about the Ukes with what the Russians have done to them. Wheat is like O&G for them, need a little for home, but most is for export. Wheat, corn, and soybean markets are so low, with the Chinese looking elsewhere, American farmers could probably fill the gap. CHIEF
  17. With a severe drought, the Ukes need to send simple incendiary bombs on windy days into the Russian wheat fields. Burn it all, right before winter. CHIEF
  18. He needs to think of himself as the receiver, what velocity could he likely catch at that distance. You can’t lose 30% of your likely receiving yards because of ball velocity. That is inexcusable. The QB Guru needs to tighten that up. CHIEF
  19. Apparently enough that a lot of American oilfield services companies have offices over there. Owens Tool has one, I think Core Services, as well. Those are both companies that have offices close to Granbury. When my son was looking for an engineering job, several had Singapore offices. CHIEF
  20. Have a buddy in Salado that is a partner on a Wagyu ranch that does that. From the pasture, through the finishing, to the processing. He would bring Wagyu steaks to the deer lease, and they were the shit. For some reason, show steers never brought much money at the Central Texas Fair in Clifton, my Dad would always keep mine out of the sale. His reasoning was that the steer was finished perfect, he had paid the feed bill, so he was going to eat that bastard instead of someone else. CHIEF
  21. Yeah, we were always blessed good pastures to graze, not really in an arid region. Didn't have to worry about cattle freezing to death like Montana or Wyoming. Never had to really worry about snow. I imagine the work gets harder the farther North and West you go. CHIEF
  22. It's not really that hard of work, just more time consuming vaccinating, or cleaning any wounds. Screw worms have only been eradicated in the US since 1966. I remember my grandfather talking about how nice it is to not have to run your herd through the head chute every week to kill the larvae. Out of the four or five thousand head we raised over the years, I don't ever remember losing one to a disease, or to parasites. The only ones I can remember losing was one to a rattlesnake bite, and two heifers with calving problems. If you have good fences, and plenty of graze, you can kind of put them on autopilot. I've never really dealt with finishing cattle out in a feedlot, that may be a whole different situation with confined spaces. CHIEF
  23. Ideally in a Sopwith Camel and a Bullpup with 15 round drums. To make it really authentic to WWI, no parachutes, oh, and the Russians have to circle crash sites and drop wreathes. They have to use their own wreath fund, of course. CHIEF
  24. How man cattle have you raised? Are you a rancher, or own cows? CHIEF
