Re: It's the most wonderful time of the year December Thread

I think so too. I recall thinking some of the patriarchs were very unforgiving. Reference Noah cursing Canaan for his father Ham's sin. Somewhere I read Ham's sin was not just seeing Noah naked but one of homosexual lust. Lot offering his virgin daughters in exchange for leaving the angels alone was another one.

My sister inlaw was joking at me about killing innocents animals. I asked her is it morally superior to pay someone else to kill it for you or do it yourself. She mentioned some brands of chicken claim they raise chickens humanely and use lethal injection before slaughter. Either way you're enslaving and killing an animal for food. With claims like, "humanely raised" and "euthanized" you know it'll be expensive.

Yeah, I'm sure that they tell the chickens Rodney Dangerfield jokes, until they die laughing.

[RRCmdrBennett]

Probably...

Had a pretty good meeting tonight. We talked about changing the night of the outpost meetings to Sundays. It'll work for most, but not everyone. There's not much in life outside of Jesus that can work for everyone all the time! 

I just feel that while we might lose some to start with, we'll end up gaining more because of the increased activities throughout the year that we'll be able to do by changing from Friday nights.

[Claymore]

Are you kidding.  I can shoot, clean, cook, camp... just don't like to kill stuff.  If I was hungry... yup I would be first in line to pull the trigger.

We butchered 2 rabbits a few years back at the bat cave. It still bothers me... I ate that rabbit and it was good rabbit..I can still remember the rabbit squealing when we hit it in the head with a hammer.  It was dead in less than seconds but that squeal still haunts me.

Today at work a coworker brought in 3 boxes of 5.56mm/.223 ammo, two metal 30 rnd mags, and a dvd on mastering the AR-15. Got all for $35! All valued at $105 full price. He traded in his AR for AK so he sold off the AR related stuff.

[Claymore]

Well, 3 billion of the world's population, to include the Chinese, former Soviet States, Muslim Nations, and North Africa can't ALL be wrong.

[RRCmdrBennett]

They are all wrong about religion and politics...communism and religion.

The AR has come a long way. Hasn't the AK been around a lot longer?

[Claymore]

Since 1947.

Duh, hence AK-47...

Has anyone ever proposed a RC meet up camp out? Knowing the majority are in the eastern half of the US, maybe hold it in the mountains of Tennessee or Kentucky. Could bring our Rangers and make somewhat of a RangerChat Pow Wow.

[RRCmdrBennett]

Kentucky is close enough to us. We did an RC meeting at JB's lodge last year.

[Phillip Gross]

JB?

[ccm2361]

JB?

  

Johnnie Barnes of course!  



I think Dan is referring to the Johnnie Barnes Lodge at Camp Eagle Rock

[Phillip Gross]

Gotcha. So y'all did a meet up for those who attended Camporama. Never an unsanctioned camp? Tisk tisk.... Just dutiful citizens of the republic after all....

It was a sanctioned camp but definitely from nat'l's view not a sanctioned meeting they would want  

I would definitely be up for an "unsanctioned" RR1.0 camp. Out of us it was me, Mark, and Strods.

[Phillip Gross]

I like the idea of meeting up for a camp, but I wonder how many parents would allow their children to go on a camp so far from home... Maybe just a core group of campers would go anyway. It would be fun to kick around and see if we could come up with something maybe next fall or so.

[Phillip Gross]

I'd like to see the minutes from that meeting!

[Phillip Gross]

Here's something off the wall. Anyone here do graphic design? If I'm going to pay money for something then I'd rather it be someone I know or a connection thereof.

I've got a logo and character in mind for our racing team that I need developed in the near future. After the designs are established I'm going to have bike wraps (custom vinyl) created for the motorcycles so they both look the same. It's cheaper than having the body pieces painted and the vinyl doesn't scratch quite as easily as paint. Plus, once the design is established, new vinyl can be produced that looks exactly the same (in the event of having to replace a fairing or something).

I also want to have t-shirts printed etc. So let me know if you know of anyone that does freelance work and is competitively priced. I'm not looking for a freebie, but also don't want to pay an arm, leg, or both!

[RRCmdrBennett]

We traveled 16+ hrs for Camporama, KY would be no problem.

got 2" of snow last night & more is coming down

[Mark Jones]

Hey we have already had almost 12" of snow this year. More than we got all of last year. Love this stuff. Well for a few days anyway. GRIN!

Mark Jones

[Phillip Gross]

I wouldn't mind having some snow if it's going to be cold anyway... At least then I get a forced day or two off since everything shuts down here when any flurries hit the scene.

[joecool]

Hate global warming. Hate it, hate it, hate it.

Funny, most southerners don't know what to do when the white stuff hits the fan...
