Just hit 500.

Thanks to all who helped. And your pets who signed the petition too.

But not to Jedi. Clearly he only asked at the very end so he could get the glory. But glory must be earned and he is a government worker, they don't earn anything they take it.

Hoards of coons inbound!

I think Andy has a Coyote to drop off at Jedi's now but for some reason he hasn't figured out that it is a coyote and not a dog... Probably right after he takes it in to the vet for some shots etc. He will graciously drop it off at Jedi's...

Mmmnnnnnn, Jameson on the rocks then a Guinness.

Work sucks. I'm gonna try to hit the range this weekend. I got a tripod for the chronograph and need to try it out.

I'd rather that they just close it than leave it the way it's been for the past few weeks. Both 30 and 61st have had no on-ramps. You just get flung into traffic. A couple of days ago when getting on NB 65 from 30, a semi would not move from the right lane to let me in, and I had a choice between running into him or the orange barrels. I took out two barrels.

Yea, that's a schnooty little 50 yards they give you to merge there Snap......hope the damage was minimal...

In other roadwork news, coming back north from Lake Village yesterday I see the county has eastbound Belshaw closed at 41...looks like semperfi211 is getting a new road soon....​

So if i am reading that correctly.
If someone where to leave southlake mall they can not get onto i65 to go north to chicago correct?

However coming from chicago they can take i65 south and still get off at us30 to go to the mall.

Looks like, so far, the westbound 30 ramp onto 65 going north will stay open. And, so far, the southbound 65 off-ramp onto 30 will stay open.

Ericwp, this saturday you might find me on the 200 yard at JP, Just saying...

Construction season has begun ey....

 

[Ericpwp]

Noted. If I can get out, I'll be there early before the hordes of FIPs.

Yep. Watching "The Corpse Bride" in algebra I because they took their final exam three days ago.

Sounds like someone is a little too entitled. Since when is it a Semi's job let someone in? Actually since when is it anyone's responsibility to let anyone else in?

Making room to let someone merge is called courtesy. As long as it doesn't involve having to break hard, you shouldn't be an ass and try to stop someone from merging onto the highway.

And with the construction there is no merge lane to jockey for position. The merging traffic is forced into the right lane immediately no matter what is already there.

Thanks. Have you found that primed no powder .556 I threw,in your ammo can yet. Or was it two.

That's just mean.

I read your first post earlier, thanks. Then when I left ABJ VA thiamine morning I went to the express way to go to Hammond I forgot until I was on the ramp. To say the least it was hairy.
