    Snow blower. The locals want $250-300 per driveway plow...nope. My options are buy a plow for my truck or get a snow blower. Snow blower is more fun, besides if I had a plow friends and family would drive me nuts
    to plow once?!  wow!
    i tried an electric snow blower, that was the dumbest idea ever.
    now have the smallest toro, and it does a great job.  my back is very happy.

    Yes. You should have seen the first guys face that quoted it when I asked if that was for the season! The driveway is 200+ ft with an additional parking area on the side. I went with this. Overkill for the amount of snow we typically get but having the 3 stage will let me get it done faster.

    It’s really hard right now. You have to constantly be on the lookout. As soon as ammo shows up anywhere it’s usually gone in hours. Luckily I have always put a little ammo back so I have a decent amount.

    If you are looking for ammo, go to every online site you can find. Click the “notify me when back in stock” option. You will get an alert when they have it. Once you get an alert you got to act fast as it will be gone in mere minutes.  I just scored a little 38 ammo from Freedom doing this. The price is jacked way up but it is what it is my friend.

    Why don't you buy your ammo when it's cheap?

    LOL!  My buddy texted me after fishing all day, they are trapped up near the Lakefront Airport.  After spending an hour in traffic and not getting anywhere, they just pulled over and started throwing a football around.

    Also, 5 guys, high end gear, $150K boat = 3 catfish.  Some days it's just off.  At least the weather was beautiful. (also glad I didn't take a day off for weekday fishing today).



    Edit: wrong thread

    Dad took me fishing occasionally, and Grandpa all the time.  I haven't fished since becoming an adult, because I got really tired of hearing "Oh, you should've been here last week!" all the time.  :angry:  
    Well, once.  What's-her-name, her sister, her Dad and I went out in Dad's boat in some lake near Sand Mountain, Alabama.  We caught enough cats for two meals, and her Mom was a fantastic cook.  That was a good weekend.   :)

    I have been buying ammo since the mid 70’s. I probably have more than I need but I continue to buy just in case.

    Know the feeling. Apartment where I live turned off the gas at 5:35 this afternoon (leak).  I had a beef stew cooking (just added taters) in a gas range. I was not happy about it. Chinese pick up it was. Chit happens

    What do you need all that ammo for?  If there's a "civil" war, civilians don't stand a chance against our military.  And if the war is with the Dems, science goes away and your iphone and GPS stops working.  Live life, eat food, be happy.

    At the moment I don’t particularly “need” the amount of ammo that I have. But like many things that could change in time. With that aside, give it a few years and the ammo I have will be worth 20 times what I paid for it. I can remember when certain calibers was less than a nickel a round. Now they are going for a dollar or higher. Some as high as 2 dollars.

    @dmchicago. Dennis, I ordered (thanks to you) one of these today.  Was meaning to talk to you in advance.  Hope I didn't make a crappy selection.
