Price of gas
Is anyone experiencing bad MPG recently? I have a hunch that Speedway is "watering down" it's regular gas. With what, I have no idea, and to be honest, I may be imagining it. But here's the thing. When I fill up at Wawa or Quick Check, the MPG is decent, like, normal. I don't know the exact MPG, but I note the mileage from full to half empty. I'm estimating a 1 to 2 mpg difference. Speedway gas may have been crap all along and I just didn't know.

Another Year, The NRA will NOT be getting my $$$
Because, gun ranges and codependency on NRA insurance racket. People will not cancel their NRA membership if they want to keep shooting. It's basically the exact same racket the dems have with welfare recipients. If NRA members have the courage to actually call or e-mail the NRA and outright CANCEL memberships by the hundreds of thousands (millions would be better), even life time members, maybe they will get the hint. If NRA members are committed to turning the do-nothing organization around, you will have to accept that there will be a cost. You can't just wish for change. I will not support the NRA as it currently stands. The price I've paid is not being able to become a member of a couple ranges I'd really love to join. I have to drive to Stafford Forge, Colliers Mills, Ft Dix or Clinton to shoot. The alternative is to get some other 2A group to insure ranges, or at least convince ranges to accept an alternative to the NRA. If NJ ranges accepted GOA, NAGR, SAF, etc, then we could break the cycle of codependency. If people put as much time and energy into demanding change in the NRA as they do bitching about the organization, Wayne would have been gone a long time ago.

new gun regulations coming!
While this may be a practical solution to the dems doing NOTHING about social policy, it is not an ideal remedy. It smacks of socialist control, "show me your papers" and deeply institutionalizes children. We'd be putting our children is day prisons, while the bad guys roam free.

Were it not a requirement for membership at most NJ ranges, I believe NRA membership here would be very low. The only way the NRA can sustain itself is via extortion and relentless panhandling.

I wish these new members would not post such long intros. TMI.

Maybe in NJ and Cali, but that dog don't hunt in free America. It doesn't matter what "must do something" is done, it will not address the underlying problem of social decay.

Memorial Day
Also Please, let us not forget those for whom the battlefield followed them home. Agent orange, mental breakdown, suicide, Gulf syndrome, and the plethora of other invisible boogeymen that stalked them until the very end. Remember the fallen, who's unseen wounds occurred on the battlefield, and were left ignored and untreated. I lost two friends to agent orange. They made it home alive, but it was the war that eventually killed them.

That has been the plan from the start. Demonize black rifles, ban them on looks, then go "OOPSIE, these hunting rifles work the same way as them evil black rifles we banned, so we gonna ban these bitches too"

Lucky for me, I do not own any so called "assault weapons" My rifles do not meet the government AWB definition of an assault weapon. So, how far back will they move the goal post this time?

Powdered Milk
Has anyone tried the powdered milk offerings from any of the prepper/camping food makers? Is there a point to powdered milk, does it have the same nutritional value as real milk?

Price of gas
Just two and a half years ago, gas was $2.50, and there were no diesel or fertilizer shortages. There was a surplus export market too. I'm pretty sure this whole gas thing was planned, but not for the green new deal bs. America's economy is being slowed down intentionally. America has the capacity to produce everything we need. Jus say'n

This is team Biden, doing "something".

Price of gas
At this point, it's damage control. They have totaled their party and trying to salvage their political futures by appearing to be doing something. I dunno why the picked refineries to prop up the party, it's the freaking OIL stupid (not you Peel, you're a peach), We had enough refineries in 2019 to keep supply up to demand, what's the point in rebooting a shuttered refinery, it can only add to the problem of not having enough oil to refine.

Price of gas
How about this for an unintended consequence. Home heating oil will get caught up in diesel pricing and suffer the same shortages. If there is no heating oil, people will turn to wood burning stoves. Thousands of acres will be cut down to heat homes. So, the lefty idiots get their win by fucking up oil, but caused deforestation.

Not sure but I think it was last year. If you look all the way at the bottom of the membership page, a day pass is listed at $15.

Range-14 at Ft Dix. They do non member day passes now.

home gardening?
use this opportunity to divide the roots/bulbs if they have been underground for a long time. I mean, hey, who can't use a free peony. One of my lawn accounts has two gigantic Tractor Supply livestock water tubs on what appeared to be short legged saw horses. It looked pretty cool, but I wonder how long the tubs will last.

Black rifle coffee - Shenanigans
They make excellent coffee. I've had four of their roasts, and they are all excellent. If you are a true coffee nerd, they also have limited runs of beans from exotic places. Best of all, they don't say shit about shit, they just make coffee.

They fill 'em all the time. Especially boat tanks. I wouldn't bring the drum to the gas station, off loading it would be a mutherfuker. I'd just make a few trips with three or four 5gal containers and fill it where it would be stored. There may be fire codes about having tanks at home larger than X, but I have a place off property to store it.

Price of gas
try filling 6x five gallon cans twice a week, a 30 gallon dump truck and two 25 gallon pickup trucks. We are loosing lawns every month because of the price increases. Whatever are we going to do with the illegal immigrants doing the jobs that nobody wants to do, that nobody wants done anymore. Last year we lost three lawns to robots.

I regret not taking up an offer for two newly emptied 55gal fuel drums and filling them up at $4.27 when I had the chance.

I have to admit, Biden did make good on a big campaign promise. He vowed to unite America, and he's done it. Everybody is disgusted with him. America has not been as united since 9/11.

Apologize, had given up any chance of Nj concealed carry—glimmer of hope now?
You noticed that too, eh. Does not instill confidence.
