  1. Jeep People...WTF!?

    My favorite was a 77 CJ5 with a 304 and a little extra performance thrown in. I smoked a buddy`s "hot" Boss 302 Mustang in a drag race. I sold it (relunctantly) when they passed a law requiring all emissions junk to be on the engine. I had thrown it away. Sold it to someone registering in a...
  2. Jeep People...WTF!?

    I Jeeped from 1972 til I got over buying axles, clutches, brakes, etc. I started going around mudholes and boulders after 25 years of what was ,at that time, "fun". I have owned many 4WDs, Jeeps, trucks. Some of the rigs I don`t really like these days, I don`t wanta criticize, as folks have a...
  3. Jeep People...WTF!?

    I`m a boomer with a Wrangler. Lifted. 33s. Hardtop. No ducks. I know which way my cap goes. I don`t wear sun glasses. I ain`t cool, whatever that means. Just hunt and fish. Don`t include me in the duckies club. Thanks.
  4. Growing Sweet Potatoes For the Home Victory Garden

    Many years ago, in a deer camp, a friend would bring raw sweet potatoes, that when eaten raw, tasted like real coconut. I recently tried some bought from the store that had no taste, raw. Do they need aging?
  5. Just WOW

    It ain`t the gun. I have a 43 and a 43X. They do very well in law enforcement qual. Excellent EDC for civilians.
  6. Who has Hearing Aids?

    I have Oticon from VA. They amplify fine but they don`t clarify very well. I have severe hearing loss. Not surprised. Flew non-pressurized aircraft, shot guns, ran chainsaws, worked on acft without hearing protection, on and on.
  7. 2024 turkey rigs

    Thanks for the info. I found some at Adventure Outdoors.
  8. Which one of you were this D.I.Y. builder?

    Used to be, decks were nailed to the house. Now, they are supposed to be bolted with nuts and washers.
  9. Septic pump question

    We have a Clearwater septic system. Two pumps and an aerator motor, which has been running non-stop for 27 years, except for a few power outages. It has 4 tanks, turns sewage ino graywater, pumps it under the back yard. I have replaced one pump and one circuit board. I clean a filter every six...
  10. Could you turn off your phone and walk away from the internet

    I don`t keep my phone on all the time. I don`t always keep it with me. During hunting season I go out of town a lot, for several days. I don`t miss the laptop one bit. This is the only social media I use except for the Allatoona fishing report on wife`s FB. I can do without this site,also, even...
  11. Savoy Auto Museum

    Well worth the visit. Sign says "no firearms". I carried anyway with no problem. Nobody asked. Make sure you aren`t printing, though. They keep a close eye on everybody.
  12. For those who own night vision...

    I have a little experience with two different night vision scopes costing a few grand apiece. One was top of the line,I was told. I never wanted one. Our hunting property became infested with hogs. I bought a Lumenshoot scope from Amazon with white, red, and green capsules(diodes, I guess). It...
  13. Demolition Derby is back!

    Anybody remember the little announcer, Jimmy Mosteller, who walked around interviewing fans before the races at Dixie and Rome? I had a book about him. He went way back in racing. Before he passed away, he was absent for a few weeks(illness), then returned to Dixie. I told him that "It ain`t the...
  14. Demolition Derby is back!

    They had 3 or 4 races at Rome last year. Glad to see it reopen. Good folks there. Every time I go I want to get back in a car, but I`m almost 78. I ran on some dirt tracks in NC in the late 60s. Guess I`ll be off my diet on Saturday nights starting April 6. Hot dogs, corn dogs........
  15. If there ever was a reason to stop going to McDonald's.

    I only eat at the ones that have counter service. If I have to use the kiosk I leave.
