Baboon loose in Jackson area.
I live in Jackson and pretty close to there, maybe Ill get to put my new 887 nitro mag tact to good use, gonna go load her up right now. The reason GA doesn't know their monkey count is because there are new babies being born all the time and they said they cant keep track of that so they don't have a definite number. Odds are it is there's cause as far as people owning monkeys baboons are the hardest to keep because of their wild nature and im sure just like everything else in jersey its illegal for people to own them.

Waiting on FID - How Long Before I Should Worry?
In jackson it took me 1 day short of 4 months so I can say I feel your concern with the wait. Like others say it doesn't hurt to get in touch with them after the 2 months since the process by the book is suppose to take 30 days.

Safely storing your handguns?
I had the gun vault but I changed and went more for a storage based safe but being ready to go in seconds type of setup. I bought the 1 cubic foot version of this safe http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GB1VN8/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&s=hi&psc=1 It works well because on the bottom shelf I can lay down flat 3 handguns or resting up on the slide I could fit about 6 comfortably. That leaving the top shelf for me to store ammo and extra mags and such, and it literally takes 2 seconds for me to open up in case of emergency.

newbie and a glock 23
I aswell will be trying for the academy in next few years and about a year ago was in similar position as you trying to figure out what to get comfortable with that would become my service firearm. A bit of advice I could offer is, yes odds are you will be issued a glock as a LEO but PD's are now letting officers pick their weapons aslong as they meet a certain score or criteria. I would suggest going out and trying all different types of hand guns and all the calibers to get a general feel. I personally dislike the .40 I know some people that love it for their own reasons I enjoy 9mm and like.45 even more. Regardless of what calibers you will and wont like training and repetition will build shooting discipline and muscle memory which is very important in critical situations when you may have to use a gun. Don't be too hung up on what gun you need to use to be ready for academy, building up a good shooting form, discipline and that muscle memory will basically transition into any gun you may need to train with. As far as getting the feel for a glock if you wish to do so I would suggest getting the G19 its in 9mm but it will be a bit cheaper to shoot than .40 since your going to be practicing a bunch and you will still build a feel for glocks and build on your form in general. Best of luck and acourse any questions PM me.

My developments lake
Thats really cool you have your own private fishing spot, If you were to put any snakeheads in there a majority of all the other fish would be gone within a year or two. Snakeheads have almost no predators here and they will eat anything they can, I am pretty sure they made a regulation your not allowed to move or possess snakeheads now. I know you wouldn't do it, its just crazy how deadly that fish is to our native species of fish.

What is happening to BA?
Lol its complicated to say the least on how some people feel about BA, reason one place being packed and one place being empty and literally being down the road is this.In my opinion a big percentage of shooters especially on weekends at SS and BA are newer shooters,people that are just looking to rent, or a guy that thinks its badass to take his girlfriend on a date to the shooting range. I find that BA caters more to people that are not novice, don't really ask questions, have their own equipment and just want to go in and shoot. They aren't as personable to newer shooters and renters and their prices for renting show it. Renting a 9mm SS is about 10-15 dollars cheaper to rent from and that's excluding the NJGF discount, with the discount a range fee is 5 dollars cheaper and ammo would be about 10 dollars cheaper.Not to mention you get to shoot a majority of the major brands of handguns in that caliber, at BA you get to shoot one handgun. Some of the people at BA are pleasant others seem to have woken on the wrong side of the bed and want to just move you along.As far as knowledge base on firearms some of the employees know little to nothing others know their stuff. If your new to firearms and don't feel confident in the person helping you or selling you a gun that's a big problem. Bottom line the personable atmosphere to newer shooters and being cheaper is the main thing that packs ShoreShot and is why BA is usually empty. Personally I have no problem shooting at either place and I go to BA from time to time, beyond using the range I wont deal with BA.

ugh
Depending on how you loaded the projectile and if you did a crimp or not you might be able to get away with getting two pairs of pliers and you turn the casing one way the projectile another and wedge it out. I have done this on about six 9mm bullets that I either loaded with too much or the primer went in wrong. This is something I did and I am not telling you to do this but its something I know that's worked. If you loaded these bullets on the lower end of a data sheet that 10% increase may not be a issue.

Glock 22C RTF2
I have been in the market for a 19C for well over 2 months now and they are almost impossible to find, I and a few dealers I spoke to believe that Glock is trying to phase out the rest of the gen3 C models and then start making them in gen4 once supplies have been exhausted.

Just a question for the zombie hunters...
Like was mentioned, a school could be a very nice setup or I would try to get to a county jail, the county jails by me are more like a mini federal prison and not what you see in movies where there is just some holding cells and police desks. You could lock all entrances and I don't really think any zombie would be getting through prison doors unless it was some sort of super zombie like the tank in left4dead. These prisons are also multilevel so you could create security zones and barricade the stair wells. The only vulnerable spots in these jails are usually the delivery bays they are protected by a basic gate and then have roll up shutter doors. There are still usually steel bar doors before getting inside the prison,if the zombies could spit or vomit to infect it could be a issue. I would try to hang plastic sheets painters use or most likely have to use prison bed sheets as a bio barrier. Personally I would rather starve to death barricaded in a building then take a chance with a moving defense, unless I had very good odds and I knew the zombies were all slow or easy to incapacitate.I think for me dying on my own terms would matter more then surviving at any cost.

What happened at Shore Shot???? 5/28/2011???
Steph I can atleast say for myself my curiosity in wanting to know what happened is more of do I have to worry about the guy next to me killing themselves or shooting me on purpose or by accident. To be honest I would be less concerned if it was a suicide but I am sorry for that person and their family if that's what happened.

Long term food storage + Long term water storage + means to cook both...
Best method for storing food for 10+ years is cans there have been cans of food found from WW2 and were still good for consumption. Here is a snip of a story on canned food: Sir William Edward Parry made two arctic expeditions to the Northwest Passage in the 1820's and took canned provisions on his journeys. One four-pound tin of roasted veal, carried on both trips but never opened, was kept as an artifact of the expedition in a museum until it was opened in 1938. The contents, then over one hundred years old, were chemically analyzed and found to have kept most of their nutrients and to be in fairly perfect condition. The veal was fed to a cat, who had no complaints whatsoever.
