Where Did You Go / Are You Thinking Of Moving TO When You Leave NJ
I'm pushing for Tennessee, but wifey isn't biting yet.... Or, Western, NC... she's possibly warming up to that, but there's some more pushing needed. Austin??? Do you know how Austin has changed lately?

Defensive firearm use
Wifey and I both grew up in rural areas, where you never needed to lock your doors. Where we live now, it's a safe neighborhood, but I had to keep reminding her to lock the doors, she kept pushing back saying why? Her reply was , "you can just go shoot the bad guy." The last couple of years there has been a few home invasions in the area, so finally I got her in the habit in locking the doors if we weren't going back out. That's my primary reason to get another dog and to train him for a Level I defensive response. That's his primary job. He's the first layer to provide a distraction, to give me the seconds needed to get set up with the appropriate "tools".

It's probably the same people who don't lock their cars in the driveway, then cry when their stuff is stolen out of them.

Best online retailers for ammo (9mm)
Thought about it, but i didn't need the money. Very tempting... I have some Blazer brass in 115 and 124 that I'll probably never shoot.

Wow, it's still pretty high, I should sell some at those prices.

DEAD Till 2022
Also keep in mind, they changed the 4473 last year, and put all the buyer info and details of the firearm all on the first page (firearm info use to be on page two). Makes it easier to copy or scan one page and have all the registration info they need.

PORK ROLL or TAYLOR HAM!?
Kinda the same thing, right?:

PORK ROLL or TAYLOR HAM!?
Don't they come from the same animal? ......"Ham is from the pig’s hind leg while pork is any meat from pigs. Ham has a unique salty, sweet or smoky flavor, depending on the preservation process; pork does not have this unique flavor. Ham is ready-to-eat because it was processed already while pork can be in raw form and require cooking before being consumed." https://difference.guru/difference-between-ham-and-pork/ So, you could be eating ANY part of the pig in your Pork Roll...... Yummy!!!

Better than shooting something else off..

Transporting rifle/shotgun in RV
Since I travel through multiple states in my RV, I carry a Taser, a Byrna pepperball pistol, and LEO strength Mace. As much as I'd like to have the handgun with me, playing legal jeopardy isn't part of my travel plans.

Transporting rifle/shotgun in RV
In NJ, if you have FID, you should be OK. In some other Blue states (MD, NY, MA, etc.) don't know. I wanted to transport a handgun with me in my RV, since I can carry in like 35 states. But I have to drive through some Blue states to get to the Red ones, and don't want to take the chance of getting caught.

Might be car shopping soon, anyone selling?
Wow, Mexican food is really expensive in Florida.. I believe most leases have a buy-out price when they are written. I guess it depends on the market at the end of the lease if that price is worth it.

PSA
Ha... remember that 7-8 mpg is an average over 40+ gallons (55 gallon tank)... it's probably gallons per mile up the big hills...

Gas... Ford V10 between 7-8 mpg... After the last trip, with all the hill climbs we did, I was so glad I got the 6.8 liter V10 gas versus the 3.6 liter V6 Mercedes diesel (except for the fuel bill).

My last RV trip in October, I was up to $120 to top off the tank, and that was starting from 1/4 full. I can't wait to see what it will be up to when we go out for the first RV trip in the Spring...

Might be car shopping soon, anyone selling?
I had bought wifey a new Subaru BRZ in the Spring of 2019, as a retirement present. In the two and a half years we had it, she didn't drive it much, like 10K miles. She preferred her Jeep. So I sold it last month (to a dealer), and got just about what I paid for the car (not counting sales tax, tags).
-

It certainly is a mess. I've been looking for a used cargo van to convert to a camper van, since the beginning of the year, prices have climbed $10K all year. Vans that are a few years old with like 60K miles, sell for close to what their sticker price was new. It's nuts. Also been looking for a new SUV for wifey. The lack of inventory is stunning. Trying to find the model with the configuration she wants is virtually impossible.

anyone remember the trunk monkey option?
Hey, I have one of those at home. He's a working dog, he needs to earn his keep. Gotta be prepared at all times:

Gopher second term has more gun control on tap
From ANJRPC: December 20, 2021. In response to a massive outcry from gun owners against Gov. Murphy's gun ban proposals, the NJ Assembly today unexpectedly took no action on the major components of the anti-Second Amendment bill package. Instead, the Speaker of the Assembly issued a statement indicating that he intends "to consider re-posting a comprehensive package in January." This means that the bills could still come up for a vote on the final day the Assembly is scheduled to meet this session (January 10, 2022). But it also means that gun owners' collective outcry has led to serious questions among Assembly members -- enough to cause the major components of the bill package to be "held" right now.

I hope it wasn't these monkeys. Rampaging monkeys kill 250 dogs in India in revenge massacre In a small Indian village, a pack of murderous monkeys have started a war with the local canines. Around 250 dogs have been dragged to the tops of buildings and trees and dropped by a crew of raging primates that are apparently furious with the pups after they killed one of their babies, local media reported. Locals in Maharashtra’s Beed district, about 300 miles east of Mumbai, told News 18 the monkeys have been on a quest for revenge and in the nearby Lavool village, not a single dog has survived the purge. https://nypost.com/2021/12/17/rampaging-monkeys-kill-250-dogs-in-india-in-revenge-massacrerampaging-monkeys-kill-250-dogs-in-india-in-revenge-massacre/

Is that called "The Definition of Insanity"? Maybe it requires a different way to get the point across and negotiate? Voting doesn't seem to help either.

The other question, how many of these "official" email addresses actual go to a staff member to sort through versus go directly to the Rep? I bet they have SOP just to reply with their standard response right back to the incoming form letter.
