  1. It really depends on the company. 7 days a week for months on end,. will burn you out quick! I worked salary once, and there was really no upside for me. Unless I was getting paid a stellar amount, I wouldn't do it again.

    NRA vs liberals

    I'm a big fan of the NRA. Where would gun ownership, and laws, be today without them?

    The Fed does what it does, because we let them. A weak, complacent, and overly civilized society. I have lost more than a mortal man should have to. The 'Man" won't be taking anything from me, without consequence.

    I would like to take away the "Freedom of the press". See how they like it. They would be squealing like little pigs. One of the biggest problems we face, is the Liberal media. Obama will be bypassing Congress, very soon, with executive order.
  6. There is some very bad events coming our way. I was listening to talk radio, and it is being said by some smart people, that the majority of the Syrian refugees, are younger, single Muslim males. Many of which are being sent to Arizona, and Texas, because we are the red states that Obama hates most. He is allegedly doing this to punish us, and use these refugee's to disrupt our society. Many of which could be closely tied with terrorism. We can expect more rapes, violent crime, murder, etc. Don't shoot the messenger, but I agree with this 100% We need our guns more than ever.

    Tornado (not a Buick)

    I remember the Haboob epidemic. Meteorologists were saying it like they just invented the wheel. I think the NWS has somebody that sits in a little room dreaming up names for storms and weather activities, such as "Hurricane Bob".

    According to the news, this is a cold air funnel in Tucson about 30 minutes ago

    Tornado (not a Buick)

    I have never heard that term either. They were talking about it on the news yesterday. from Wiki... A gustnado is a specific type of short-lived, low-level rotating cloud that can form in a severe thunderstorm. The name is a portmanteau of "gust front tornado", as gustnadoes form due to non-tornadic cyclonic features in the downdraft from the gust (outflow) front of a strong thunderstorm, especially one which has become outflow dominated. It has little in common with tornadoes structurally in terms of vertical development, or in regard to intensity, longevity, and formative process (as classic tornadoes are associated with mesocyclones in the upflow of the storm, not the outflow). The average gustnado lasts a few seconds to a few minutes, although there can be several generations and simultaneous swarms. Most have the winds of an F0 or F1 tornado (up to 180 km/h or 112 mph), and are commonly mistaken for tornadoes. However, unlike tornadoes, the rotating column of air in a gustnado usually does not extend all the way to the base of the thundercloud. Gustnadoes actually have more in common with whirlwinds (which include dust devils, whirlwinds that form due to superheated surface layers and stretched vorticity, most commonly on sunny, warm days with light winds). They are not considered true tornadoes (unless they connect the surface to the ambient cloud base) by most meteorologists and are not included in tornado statistics. Sometimes referred to as spin-up tornadoes, that term more correctly describes the rare tornadic gustnado that connects the surface to the ambient clouded base, or to relatively brief tornadoes associated with a mesovortex,

    Some weather people are calling these "Gustnado's"

    One bad .50 Cal

    @ 2000 rounds a minute, this is one bad piece of hardware. Not hunting related, but interesting none the less. I wonder how often they have to change barrels? https://youtu.be/TYMXafe60LU
  12. Back in the day of Professional African hunter, John Kingsley Heath, he did the same thing with a wounded Lion. Broke up his arm pretty bad, but he claimed that it helped from that cat chewing on him further?
  13. I see a Chuck Norris-ism, somewhere in this.

    Had a wicked storm in Tucson today. Not sure if any tornado's tried to form, but nasty wind and hail, followed by multiple downpours.

    tornado heading to pinetop, showlow

    Back in the mid 1990's, here in tucson, I remember a funnel cloud forming in the sky. It never touched down, but was interesting to watch.The Meteorologist on the news that night mentioned that Tornado's rarely form in mountainous areas, because of wind speed or something?? I guess they were wrong. Growing up in Southern Minnesota I saw a couple of big Tornado's. Wizard of Oz type of twisters.It's pretty scary, to see that calm before the storm.

    Hopefully a house will land on her.
  18. Obama's frustration for gun control has been festering for 7 years. Gun confiscation is the missing link in his quest for a totalitarian society. Unarmed Americans can't defend themselves against a government inspired police state (UN global police force) and dictatorship. It is one of the reasons Obama is flooding this country with immigrants and refugee's. The left wants the votes, and they want Republicans out of the Whitehouse forever. It is a drawn out master plan. If the plan works, they will be able to keep their Jackboot heel's on the neck of America. Obama has 15 months to make his play. We don't have a 2/3 majority to get rid of him. That is his trump card.

    I didn't think tornado's could form in mountainous areas?

    I was surprised at the loss. The Rams play with some grit, but I think the Card's have more talent.
