    This popped up on my ytube feed a few days ago and I finally watched it tonight. Great story and I’m surprised they had room for enough fuel considering that small boat had to carry Al’s balls too. The Al Grover Story: A legend. Al Grover set out to accomplish something that had never been done Crossing the Atlantic in a small outboard. There were numerous attempts, preparations and changed plans. And once the trip was finally under way in 1985, he’d endure a gale, a hurricane and even falling off the boat before reaching Lisbon and going down in the Guinness Book of World Records. https://algroversmarine.com/our-story/transatlantic-journey/

    My son has a S&W MP-22. Great gun for AR training. I liked it better than the HK as the mag release, bolt release and safety operate exactly like an AR. As for misfires, I like either CCI 40gr minimags or Winchester 40gr M22. Both cylcle the MP-22 great and rarely any misfires unlike some of the other 36gr bulk ammo.

    OK, that will do for a rifle

    Missing a good 22LR rifle as noted already, a good short action bolt rifle (243 to 308) and a pump 12ga. Pistols are fun but to paraphrase Col Copper, they are only good to allow you to get to your rifle.

    Y'all non-nighttime toilet flusher's should look into getting a plumber to move that toilet from next to your bed. I mean, did your houses not come with doors between your bedrooms and bathrooms?

    My local academy has a resaler issue with their low prices. Lines out the door are 30 people deep on Fridays when ammo arrives. All of them do.

    Good lord! Hadn’t looked At the mako website in years. How about a 41’ CC with quad merc 350 vrods for a no haggle price of $600k Is that really a choice for someone looking for a 40’+ boat?

    We Bet F-150 Lightning's Range Is under 100 Miles when Towing at the Max Ford promises EPA ratings of 230 and 300 miles, but towing and hauling near the claimed 10,000-pound maximum is going to seriously cut into those figures. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/amp36481590/ford-f150-lightning-range-towing/ I’m on several RV boards and FB RV groups and the Lightning is getting o lots of comments. I think C&D hit it right on the head. Between the mileage and dealing with charging (Can you imagine trying to quick charge while towing a boat or RV? What are you gonna do, unhook and move to a charger , then go hook back up?) I don’t think these 1gens will be comparable to a ICE truck. I do think they will be great for around the town service/delivery type applications where you can have a bunch of Level 2 chargers back in the parking lots of the shop but towing out on the road, that’s a nope for me.

    A couple of more for when you want to make a statement.

    The 5000 is the one I’m looking at. Where did you mount the valve stems? I don’t think I’m gonna get the onboard air but am about to buy a Viair 12v compressor for the truck and RV. I have a camper shell and keep an action packer tote with some tools, jumper cables, tow strap, etc that I can put the compressor inside for storage.

    She had to have been an 11 or MIA is the biggest asshole in the word for not extracting the groom from that before it even started

    I killed a lot of mallards and wood ducks wearing this bad boy and a pair of Hodgeman Wadewell waders in the floodwaters of the Neches river back in the mid to late '80s. Unfortunately, I don't have a pic of the matching Jones style hat my ninth grade girlfriend bought for me. I think that hat is still on a rack in the garage.

    Like you wouldn't take a selfie stick up the ass if she was the one holding it.

    Man, I thought this was a Surly 1% crowd that was Sitka or KUIU prostaff. I haz a sad.

    Outboard probably has a prop guard or it could be a jet. Also, the one with the outboard was more a tender for the other boats to help position them and pull them out of the backwash.

    Anybody put a set of air bags on their truck? Truck cap, kayaks on top, cooler, generator, fuel and other shit in the bed of the truck and a 1K lb tongue weight trailer has the ass of my Ram sitting down a bit. Co-worker recommends Air Lift, any other recommendations?

    Used truck prices are stupid right not. Did a quick look on my daughter's (nopics) 2012 Tacoma Double Cab 4x4. My wife worked for GST at the time and could order vehicles below dealer cost. MSRP was $32,463, Dealer cost was $30,211 and our cost was $28745 + TTL. It's in great shape, she only has 55K miles on it and KBB is showing $26.9K as trade in. That's crazy.

    That sucks. I never have paid too much attention to the issue of low water dams but for some reason I clicked on this video yesterday and it really demonstrates the problems. The second video is a special boat designed to help rescues at low water dams

    And a permethrin wash on your socks and long pants will take care of ticks.
