  1. My wife bought something similar to this years ago. http://www.reuseit.com/store/reusable-coffee-filter-frieling-p-3761.html For when we go to my parents house because they only drink decaf. Ours in gold plated for some reason but has held up great. Almost 12 years now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I was thinking about a large genny for the house but now I know i can get a smaller one and really the only thing i need it for is the furnace. I consider this a great lesson learn experience (not to make light of those that lost everything, friends and co-workers have) and I think how different it would have been losing power in February when days and nights are in the 30s. Frozen water pipes are a disaster. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. My new NC700X had been getting 64 mpg with my need for speed throtle hand. Now with my fuel economy hand I just came in at 77. $6900.00 new. http://bcove.me/rcv30m3g
  4. As suspected , now confirmed. HOV restrictions do not apply to motorcycles at bridges and tunnels. Just rode in now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. I don't know it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. 1am they rolled up, disconnected it and carted it away. Leaving the genny on overnight was the draw, like flies to shit. Lock yours up guys. This was Essex county. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Yep pilot light is on. The while thing doesn't light unless the light switch is on though. Odd Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. The new to us house has a gas fireplace and lights when you flip a light switch. I had thought it would be useless with no power but i just flipped the switch and it lit up. There must be a battery somewhere right? Where would it be? I can't see it anywhere. I couldn't imagine that it could run with out electricity because it is all wired up at the pilot light etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. http://savejersey.com/2012/10/christie-sandy-hurricane-volunteer-emergency-response-hotline/ I have been looking to do this since Irene. This is the announcement of a volunteer hotline for clean-up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Yet another ridiculous story derived from the general lack of education about mental health care. Emergency suicide hotline. WTF would anyone think would happen? Anyway, the proper thing to do is find a therapist. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. My fault. I, probably erroneously, equated squirrels with official nuisance animals like groundhogs and unofficially (in NJ) crows. Perhaps I can make my thoughts a little clearer. Ground hogs are, if I remember right, the only animal that can be taken with a rimfire rifle. The restrictions are that you can't use the rimfire rifle on public land so it mainly has to do with farmers or those with large enough tracts of land. So, being that in my area squirrels are a big nuisance and there are no alternatives, an air rifle usable in my yard to that end would be welcomed. However I am sure NJ will keep the proximity to buildings the same as regular firearms and not bow distances, just cuz they feel drawn to "fail." I suppose I could go through the hoops to be allowed to trap squirrels and run them out to a WMA so that other hunters could take them, but I feel getting the required permission to do so would be nearly impossible.

  12. I am not into eating squirrel. There are tastier things out there.
  13. Well ya, i know that it is the total number of hunters. But then numbers don't make it seem there is a great number of hunters going for squirrel. Obviously some do,i don't see it as popular. As far as table fare, you and I are on exactly opposite ends of the spectrum. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. 500 rounds of 9mm fmj that the race will happen in 2014? Hmmm, Well I have no great feeling if positivity that it will, but seeing that the only thing holding them up is permits to pave and barely any local opposition... Okay you're on. We have only to wait until the 2014 schedule is announced end of next year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Well I guess i am mistaken. But 22,000 hunters taking 34,000 squirrel is barley 1.5 per hunter. I do know for me walking around the nearest WMA with a shotgun looking for squirrels... Seems there could be a better use of my time, but that's just my opinion. But in light of the stats and going back to my other post, in my neighborhood shooting squirrels with a shotgun at a WMA isn't going to do anything to reduce the population on my street. And I wouldn't be likely to take an air rifle to a WMA to do that either. So, again, if it were to mean I wouldn't need a farm to hunt squirrel with an air rifle and I could use it in my own back yard it would be a bonus. I doubt it will though.

  16. Oh come on. You know Eccelstone would LOVE to have a race with the S.O.L., Empire state building and freedom towers In the background. That kind of interest and his announcement to keep open to it gives the idea legs. Now if the idea was to make a track like they wanted in Staten Island I would say never, but a temporary road course? I think we will see it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. It is a good point to reflect on. However i am pretty sure there is a very small percentage of hunters taking squirrel with shotgun. If it were to lead to less distance from a building with a pellet gun it would mean that homeowners with enough land could actually make a dent in the squirrel population. In my area there are battalions of squirrels running around. My neighbor had some wiring in his car chewed through and said he would love it if I were to pop a few. Like ya, sure, I'll just shoot 'em with a 12 gauge in suburban morris county. Give me a whisper air rifle and a permissive law and my backyard will be the valley of death, with my neighbors blessings. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Yee ha! I have a morbid love of watching videos of dumb asses getting tased. Watching Jersey dumb asses getting tased is going to be sublime! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Well, for me i already have my handguns in a water and fireproof safe. I might take my "buy-as-if-I-might -possibly-get-a-CCW" Ruger LCR. Buying the safe as all year protection means i don't have to scramble at the last minute. Of course that kind of thinking didn't help when I swore I would get a generator almost 365 days ago... And didn't. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Shelter. Seconded. Even a half tent that can be a wind break will be a great help if you soak that coat and need to dry it. After that learn to make a fire with nothing but your hands and some wood. A warm coat full of your own sweat is no longer warm, especially overnight. This could kill you in less than 24 hours. Extra dry clothes helps quite a bit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Not going to happen in 2013 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. sounds pretty dangerous http://news.yahoo.com/thirteen-italians-die-bloody-start-hunt-season-185150341.html Allowed to hunt on private property and I guess with no traiing at all? and "grapeshot?" isn't that from the navy?

  24. No. Yes? Maybe? There is nothing conclusive in anything you have told us. I think based on everything you have been reading of late here you can see that despite everything you are told there may be more going on than you are privy to. Maybe, maybe not. It is up to you to decide. Being told a one sided story by your friend is always very compelling. I for one find it admirable you are trying to find information out for your friend. However, you might consider that your friend in school should be capable of figuring this all out for himself. Smart people can ask their own questions from experts. Friends asking on another's behalf on the web might not help, as you have seen here. It is good that you quote the DSM. It specifically quotes an unspecified mood disorder. He was released, not seen to be in need if treatment and let go. Will that show up on his mental health record? I would bet yes just to be safe. That is why I advise he get some better information from the doctor, including his phone number. This is because that document can be taken the wrong way by an investigating officer. Remember, it is best to act as if no one on this country knows shit about mental health. Any flag will be a question mark. Have the answer ready. But I have a few questions for you. Did your friend tell you what the agents asked? As you have seen, asking "about what happened at the school" does not pass some experienced people's BS test. I had a friend that cried about how his girl friend called the police and lied to them saying he threatened to stab her just to "get him." He even told me that the police told him she knew she was lying and wrote it into the report. I asked to see it and when he showed it to me and it sure as hell said nothing if the sort. He pointed to the cop's handwritten report and said "see? It says it right there!" Well, it didn't. It said they found evidence he locked her in a room and he threatened to cut her and that he was removed from the premises. He was so into never being the bad guy he was living in a fantasy world. He wasn't crazy, he just needed to be the victim and made sure his story would cause outrage. He was later convicted on the domestic violence charge and never copped to being anything other than a righteous saint. Moving on. That report would not trigger the feds visit. But whatever did and the fact that they did visit might be the end of any further P2Ps. Without every single iota of what happened, which even as a best friend you are not entitled to, you will never be able to get a complete answer. Especially not here. I want to leave with two more thoughts: First, you posted earlier that your friend said he was depressed and that coupled with the knowledge that he had guns prompted the initial visit. There is a lot to that tiny morsel of information and it has been talked about a lot, but consider that the first report might have been made to prevent a suicide, not a mass shooting. Second, don't say your depressed if you aren't. It's a clinical term. Kids love to say things like their mom is psychotic. No, it is just a grossly misused and misapplied term. When I say the US is lacking in knowledge of mental health I can point right at people using clinical terms as slang and the other person that thinks its being used properly.
