18' sea creature found
Don't know where you got your misinformation this time but the oar fish family is the longest bony fish species alive today. One of the members of the oar fish family Regalecus glesne has reached 56 feet in length. That's just a little more than the 3 feet you claim.

Taking a prohibited person to the range
I think it depends on why the person is prohibited. If the person is a convicted felon then its hands off the guns. However my father is a prohibited person for mental health reasons(long story) but the NJ state police told me that it is ok for him to come to the range and shoot my guns he just cant own guns because he was forced to turn in his FID card. But take my info with caution as I know the state police have given out wrong info on firearms before and I am sure it will happen again.

Shotgun Shootout! October 12th at Clinton, NJ WMA
LOL I tried to teach my wife to snowboard once........and only once because that day I learned that one should never tell their wife who had just faceplanted in the snow to "suck it up". The fallowing week was not a good week. If there ever is a next time I will pay for her lessons.

Coyote kills pet dog in Ringwood
There was a coyote den I found at a house in Westfield. Fish and Wildlife came out and trapped a mother and one pup. I have also had many calls for outdoor cats that have gone missing in Morris TWP. I have also seen or heard quite a few at night in Morris TWP

Does anyone remember when…
I remember when my mom used to drop me off at a small sports shop called Dans on rt31 in Clinton. I was under 10 and they would sell me bricks of .22 ammo without my parent even being in the store and it was never a problem.

Need a new EDC light. What do you carry and why should I buy it?
+1 for Olight I have been carrying the M20 Warrior Premium for 4 or 5 years now. Used it almost everyday at work doing HVAC. This light has stood up to some serious abuse and works every time. At one time it I ever dropped it in a puddle that froze solid overnight and when I found it and chipped it out of the ice it worked just fine.

Mountain Bike Trails in North Jersey
A bit out of your way but there is a 14 mile loop trail around Round Valley Reservoir in Lebanon. It is not a beginner trail. quite a few hills to go up with some nice fast down hill sections and is very rocky. Also if you go after it rains it can get muddy.

Your first gun story
My dad started me out with his RWS air rifle around 6 or 7. At 9 I got my own air rifle a Benjamin Sheridan. At 10 I got my dads marlin Model 39 .22 (which I still have). At 12 I got my hunting licenses and mowed lawns all summer to pay for a Browning BPS pump 20g (well for my dad to pay for) Started shooting clays at Clinton WMA regularly and the old man bought me my Mossberg 500 12g.By 18 I had inherited all of my grandfathers guns because I was the only hunter and shooter in the family. All of this without a FID card, My family has our own way of doing things LOL. When I finally got my FID I was 23 and I bought my Springfield GI 1911 in stainless

Mountain lion spotted in dc
Right next to the Delaware. If it was a mountain lion I would bet anything the cat was an escaped pet from PA. There are very little or no permits required to own exotic animals in PA. I even know of a breeder in Bloomsburg that will sell cougar cubs and more to NJ residents. It is up to the buyer to know the laws in their home state.

Mountain lion spotted in dc
Your "game warden" buddy is wrong. A longtime family friend, Martin J. McHugh the DIRECTOR of the NJ DEP tells me that the wild population of north eastern mountain lion sub species are extinct! If you think you know better than the experts show the proof and I will gladly admit that I am wrong. all the ones that have been found dead in NJ have been escaped pets from PA

where is that gun mailbox at...
If you drove all of fox farm rd in phillipsburg you had to pass it. It is on fox farm rd less than 100 yards from rt 519. I am 100% positive as I know one of his neighbors and drive by the mailbox 2-3 times a month at least.

Synthetic Oil in Vehicles
It has been my experience that non car people only change their oil regularly. Trans, Brake, and Coolant hardly ever are changed regularly just topped off. I luck out because a good friend of mine is a master tech at a dealer so once a year I have him do an oil, trans, and coolant flush and it costs me a 12 pack that I get to help drink. I also change the brake fluid once a year in all my vehicles. I am a firm believer in preventative maintenance and that is probably why everything mechanical that I own lasts forever.

Synthetic Oil in Vehicles
The only oil I use in all my vehicles is Mobil 1. But I also do all my own oil changes so for around the cost of paying for someone to change my oil and use cheap products I can do it myself and use the good stuff. In my opinion its worth every penny.

Fish tank
I have a 29 gal full basic freshwater setup that I was last keeping cichlids in that I would be willing to sell pm me if your interested. I have had many fish tanks over the years. I really like reef tanks but I do not have the time anymore. Salt marine fish tanks are a bit more work than a tropical freshwater tank but they are not that bad. Fish tanks are another great way to spend more of your hard earned cash!

How Often Do You Shoot?
I try to shoot once a week but I usually only make it every other week or so. The only reason I can afford to do this is because I have started to reload. Before reloading I would only shoot about once a month. I am lucky though as I am on call from my home so when not out on a call I can get all my work around the house done and I don't have any kids.....YET.
