#6: Yet millions of assholes, like women that keep taking back a husband who beats the crap out of them weekly will do it all over again believing it'll be different next time.
Individual Ready Reserve. When you enlist in the army, you enlist for 6 years, but are only obligated to serve 3 or 4 years on active duty with the remainder as inactive reserve. You're out of the army, but they can still recall you if need be.
Details. We need details. How do you expect us to live vicariously as John if you don't tell us what you bought, John? Especially since your new purchase is a revolver.
OK, since in Massachusetts I have to register it with the state, I might as well tell you. A S&W 686 357mag with the six inch barrel. Seven shot. Paid cash as I have with all firearm purchases since the credit card companies started talking about tracking all purchases. It's going to need some work, the front sight doesn't have great contrast. The grip got a little slick. The range doesn't have AC and I was sweating pretty good after a while. Recoil isn't bad.
Ah, a S&W 686 Plus. Always a fine choice. Congratulations, Friend.
Just my personal preference, but nothing looks finer on a stainless S&W than a nice pair of old target grips with pretty wood. They also allow for an excellent grip. I've got an old Model 60 (round butt) with the original S&W wood grips and I think it's my prettiest revolver, straight like it came from the factory.
FYI- That Morbark chipper: Cat 325 excavator undercarriage, 1200 hp Caterpillar engine, can process up to 200 tons of material per hour. Only rub is that it takes a separate machine to load it.
My favorite Morbark model was called a Mountain Goat. It was a smaller self-propelled tracked machine with 575 hp that had its own self loader. But they quit making them around 2002. They were a neat machine.
This blog is a real treasure, it's not everywhere you can find an expert on industrial chippers! https://www.primarymachinery.com/product/1998-morbark-3036t-mountain-goat/
I'm not sure that I'm an expert, but I did spend almost 10 years working next to a Morbark whole tree chipper. It had a V-12 Cat motor with over 1000 hp and could fill a semi-trailer with 25 tons of chips in less than 15 minutes. It was quite an experience.
I ran a log processor in a landing next to the chipper and would hand him the tops and trees that wouldn't make logs. We cleaned up a lot of Forest Service and private ground in those years. It was a very satisfying job. The ground looked like a park when we'd get done.
#20- Show Bodymore, Murderland as an example of try appeasing their chaos

When dad separated after 22 yrs in the Corps, he still could be called up for the next ten yrs.
DeleteBiden just called up several thousand IRR for the Forever War.
