Good ya got your steering stuff the way ya want it, Brutal.
Ended up eating Subway of all things.....philly steak sandwich that wasn't all that great.
Oh well, I'm fed.
Got the shield season 2 on now. Never watched it before, cool show. Kurt Sutter is a writer on it. Creator/writer of sons of anarchy.
You did see season 1 yes? There's a slow season in there somewhere but t's still interesting.Quote:

Anytime a tv show comes on and depicts someone in a bad light there's "boycott" ,letter writing, etc. etc. Not one peep was heard from regarding LE's issue with the Shield .
It's an interesting watch.
Yeah watched season 1. Hoping jeffco library has season 3. Havent researched it yet.Quote:

Heya Belly, how'd the range go today?
Hey its a belly!
Obc, you get my 40 and fried chicken homey?
Some of the stories that get told when you hang out with guys from those type of units are pretty mind blowing. My old boss was on Atlanta PD's Red Dog unit after he left the Marine Recon community. My alpha-male, "prey on the predator" side listened to the stories and wanted to cheer. My "all citizens should be assumed innocent until proven guilty" side was a little horrified.
Just looked up from drafting and the past 8 hours have nearly flown by and realized I should probably get some food.
I couldn't do that job.
What job? Drafting or observing?
Shooting is fun.Quote:

i bought a turret press today. It will be here on the 14th.
Most of the guys I shoot with are retired EST types. They tell me about the shenanigans in which they were involved. I was more on the appalled side of the house.Quote:

ive had the best luck with sizing up .243 brass, but I have so much .308 brass that I can't not use it.
I need a good supplier of .243 brass....
I hope you can find some.
I also thought you were running .260 for some stuff.
Not even a call to say goodnight.
See you fellers in a while I spose.

Im also thinking that my loads are running too hot, so I'll try and give it a bit of a break by reducing the load a bit. Groups at 100 aren't that bad, but they could be better. Mix the 100 yd zero thing with a (unacceptable) SD and ES in the ammo, and its a recipe for frustration at the match in a couple weeks.
I'm so glad I removed that front license plate on my car. This was all I could see when I had it on

FWIW, front plate is a gray area but I've been running without for 11 years and through several stops never had an issue.
The one time I parked on the street in Denver - and well out of downtown - I was ticketed for no front plate.
On a handful of occasions after, when forced to park on street, I put it in on the dash and didn't have an issue again. Others have reported problems with this downtown. They're real pricks about it.
I found out the hard way you also cannot display a for sale sign if parked on the street in Denver. I was driving a company vehicle and working at the time, parked at a meter for 2 hours and got nailed for it. Ignorance of the law is no excuse, but that was total BS.
I took the plate off last summer. I've been driving since 2003, and only ever got hit with a front plate ticket when I was parked in LoDo. I just don't go there anymore :PQuote:
