  1. Starting letting my chickens free range during the day over the summer. They are much happier and I'm getting more eggs now. No problems for the first month or so, but a few started roosting up in the trees instead of going inside the coop at night, so high up that my son and I couldn't reach them. Then we found a few dead ones a couple of weeks ago so I put out my traps and sure enough. I also think I've lost a couple to owls - including my wife's favorite gardening girlfriend - but there is nothing I can do about those. Either the chickens decide to get back inside the coop at night or they'll all eventually get killed off.
  2. Griffey is sitting there next to him like, "Oh shit, why did I sit here? Please don't let me be next." I loved Norm. This is really sad. RIP
  3. Don't even need a gun. They'll just follow you home of you have a bag of cubes and leave the gate open. Or at least the ones on my place will. LOL
  4. Totally off topic but I love that road. Beautiful country and Anderson and Bedias are pretty little towns. I wish I had some land in that area.
  5. I was in there today for something else and stopped by the ammo aisle and saw a lot of 5.56 and 9mm. More than I was expecting to see, TBH. Shotgun shells are still inadequate. Lots of cheaper brands in #7.5 and #8 though, but nothing really great. There was a time when Academy and their free shipping was the lowest cost source for my monthly multiple flats of #9 AA's. I miss those days.
  6. Also, picked this up for Mrs CL today. She had mentioned that she wanted something to keep in her nightstand for when I am traveling but she didn't want a "scary gun" like the 9mm in my fingerprint safe. She said she liked the 22LR 682 revolver at the farm so I remembered back to this thread and figured a hammerless .38 would be perfect. She likes it so far and can pull the trigger pretty easily. We are going to go shoot it for real later this week.
  7. That's bullshit. Looks like a fake watch one might buy in a border town after wearing it one time. You just rubbed off the finish and whatever was left somehow etched in your fingerprints. What the fuck? Were your hands black after you shot? They had better make it right. I'd raise some hell.
  8. Aww fuck me. Please no.
  9. Move that bullseye about 10-15 miles west and it’s Houston Prepare Your Anus. Not Allison or Harvey bad, but there would be issues.
  10. Gave up 40(+) to arky.
  11. Getting our ass kicked on national TV
  12. This is getting embarrassing. My god. all the good feelings from a week ago - POOF!
  13. Center forgot to snap it or they still wouldn’t have called it.
  14. FML
  15. These damn out of the ass third down conversions are killing me.
  16. Pooooooor aggy
  17. Agreed, but never say never is always a safe thing to think.
  18. Not looking good for SE Texas next week. Almost certainly not as bad as Harvey but a similar setup with a “weak” storm stuck near the coast pumping rain onshore for a few days, maybe with 20 inch bullseyes in some places. Yikes. Shit, 9/11 and Allison both came in the same year, why not combine the 20 year anniversaries?
  19. Not gonna lie, I'd go.
  20. Wasn't there an OPI call vs the Cowboys in last year's opener? I vaguely remember there was.
  21. Great price for that. Pretty gun. Bummer.
  22. I like Beretta automatics better than Remington and other brands, but I'm not 100% sure what the market it is for something like this when the MSRP (can't find it so far - maybe I missed it) is probably 3x that of other more mundane brands. Nonetheless, it's pretty and it's clearly a Beretta. Also, Dillards is expanding? LOL
