    Did you know it is against the law to set up a bubbee trap for a thief 

     

     

    A small tactical nuke would remove all evidence.

    I wonder if that was determined to be a good shoot.  It looked like the danger level was deescalating since the baddie was walking away.  If he had started to turn around?  Drill him.  I doubt his intentions would have been to leave the waitress a tip.

    We have something going on right now that could be here in this fishing thread , but also could be in the weather thread , it is called the salt water wedge , the Mississippi River's flow is low , so the salt water from the gulf is working it's way up river , the salt water hangs low along the bottom , most of the Parishes along the river suck water out the river , so if the salt water makes it to the intakes of the water plants , they can't handle the salt ---- makes fishing good though 

    I used to fish with a guy that loved rubber worms.  Me, I used buzzbaits.  What I missed, he caught and what he missed I caught.

     Good time to demonstrate the effectiveness of mace and pepper spray .....I'd blast everyone of them in the face... 

    I wonder how long someone could stand a car horn blasting in their ears?  Thinking I could rig up some locomotive horns with a compressor and generator in the bed of the truck.  Heck, just walk out front of the vehicle with two stadium horns and blast 'em.

    Notice there are lifting eyes on top for the crane to hoist it , must weigh a lot , looks like a metal case 

     

    Mitsubishi  means  3 diamonds , they are the company that made the engines for the Zeros that attacked Pearl Harbor , why are they still in business today 

    Engines?  Heck, the made the whole plane.

    Sure did but the show wouldn't have been the same if Greta Thunberg played Daisy Duke and the boys driving a Tesla.

    My last house was on the edge of a small town in a nice neighborhood.  When looking at the house to buy, I met 82 yr old George Miller.  He was one easy going fine gentleman and I looked forward to having him as a neighbor.  Old Mr. Miller passed away the day before we closed.  After getting moved in I spoke with his widow and told her what I fine man her husband was and that I would do whatever I could to make things easy for her.  I cut her small yard, took out her garbage and did anything she asked.  For three years it was great.  They her daughter moved in and things changed.  They became unbearable.  

    We sold the house a year later to a family that had three daughters.  All three at the screaming age.  We closed on a hot June Friday but they weren't supposed to take occupancy until the following Monday.  The asked if the girls could use pool right away.  I'll bet within 10 minutes of them getting in the pool the neighbors wished we hadn't left.

    I learned later they defaulted on their loan and made a real mess of the place before they left.
