One of my late and great relatives was involved in the planning for "operation overlord". He told me "those poor sonsabitches didn't know where they were going or what exactly what they were doing until a couple hours before they stormed the beaches.". Sometimes ya gotta fool your friends to fool your enemies. You don't need to know every detail to be a good soldier. You just have to have the will to fight and win and be ready when called upon.

I get where you are coming from but if you already know the general vicinity of the pick up point and receive an e-mail 12 hours before hand where the exact time and location is.... well. Ya got google maps and them new fangled GPS thingies and several hours to figure out how to get you the rest of the way there. Honestly. If you are really intent on standing up for your 2A rights, ain't nothing gonna stop you from being there either way.

lol, what's there to plan. I already know I'm going to Farmingdale Monday morning to hop on a bus for a ride that will take about an hour and the rally starts at 0900. The only details left are the exact location and time the bus departs.

NOAA - NWS says snow will continue here until 0200 and taper off ending at 0700. We will probably end up with 10-12 inches by the morning.

Six, maybe seven inches so far. Still coming down steadily.

Just be at the steps of the war memorial at 0900 and the rest will fall into place.

Final details will probably be e-mailed to registrants sunday evening. Organizers are maintaining tight opsec. Rally begins at 0900 so figure out how long it takes to get to Trenton from your general pickup location and plan on ariving at your "key location" a half hour ahead of that.

Yep

Peeple tellz me sum times I am very many smart. @Smokin .50 I fixed that post for ya buddy. I think that's what you really meant to say.

I suspect they are keeping it on the DL so the transportation companies don't catch any flack. Remember what happened to the NRA meeting in NY a week or two ago, the venue cancelled because of some sort of threat.

Awesome! Pitty party at USRifle30Cal's house. I hope there will be a lot of chocolate ice cream. I'll bring vanilla scented candles, and Peel will bring the Steel Magnolias DVD. On second thought, bring Red Dawn, the original.

Oh, these aren't threatening at all. Surely makes politicians feel safe.

And tee shirt cannons and, and, a foam machine, and chicks in tee shirts covered in foam.

The intrusion into the home lives of families began in the 60's with sex education. It was supposed to address unwanted pregnancy and venereal diseases. Now it's become social programming that has gone way beyond the scope of what schools should be teaching stdents. Schools have done the same with every other aspect of social life outside the school. They are more interested in generating democrat voters than teaching kids to be competitive and successful in a globalized world. It's no wonder our nation is getting it's ass kicked in the tech sector. Kids know the various degrees of intersex organs but cant do a fucking quadratic equation.

Tablets are handy for travelers or streaming video but I find them too small for every day computing. Don't get me wrong, I think they are great and would not be without one, but I would not use it as my primary computer.

Is your name Hugh Neutron?

If you do go the laptop rout, i highly recommend getting one with a SSD (Solid State Drive) It has no moving parts. Laptop HDDs are the least reliable of mechanical storage.

I prefer a desktop. More reliable, easier to maintain and large monitor for old eyes. You can pick up a decent compact desktop PC for well under $700.00 and a nice big monitor (that doubles as a streaming TV/Movie screen) for about $300.00. EDIT: btw, I do not trust the "cloud" I back up all my data locally on thumb drives.

If you have never dressed a bird, here's a tip. Get yourself a brick or two of paraffin wax. Melt the wax in water, you don't need to boil it, just melt it. Fill a 5 gallon bucket about half way with very hot water and add the melted wax to the bucket. Hold the head and dip the bird in the bucket and slowly pull the bird out. You want a thick coating of wax on the feathers so you may have to dip it more than once. Let the wax firm up and then peel it off like you would peel an orange. Most of the feathers will come off with the wax. You will probably need to repeat it once more to get the pin feathers.

Yup.

Don't forget to let everyone at the match know about the Trenton rally.
