o.k. -- here's the Shootin' Events....pay attention, now.... -- Norwester, 21:59:47 07/05/09 Sun [1]

.
...#1 - Pistol Shoot: 50', standing, sitting, over-the-
shoulder, between-the-legs, whatever you think
you can use effectively....NO bench rests or
knee rests (if sitting) or tripods or monopods
or bipods or restin' it on someone's shoulder...
"FREE HAND", in other words, or two hands in most
cases, depending on how late you were up playing
poker the night before....

....#2 - .22 Rifle Shoot....100' target....this year, let's
make it UNIFORMLY STANDING-UP ONLY....no more of
the prone or kneeling positions...STANDING SHOTS
ONLY....OPEN SIGHTS ONLY....steadiest shooters will
win the prizes....start practicin' !

....#3 - the ANY BORE Rifle Shoot -- 75 Yards....NO 50 BMGs
allowed as they'd tear up the target stands! So,
any OTHER caliber of rifle is allowed, with either
open or TELESCOPIC sights...or lazer sights, if
yours are effective at that range....THIS IS A
FREE-STANDING EVENT, TOO, no prone or kneeling
rests....steady shooting will win it.....

(....as PieRite scrambles to price Crimson Trace lazer
sights for his .22...........)

THAT'S THE PROGRAM.....probably NO clay pigeon shoot-off
as we can't monopolize BOTH areas of the range for the
whole day.....sorry....leave the stubby-20 at home, PieRite
'cause you CAN'T USE IT for the RIFLE shoot, either!!!

[Edit]

How the heck did you get a reservation? -- audude, 14:59:34 07/02/09 Thu [1]

I booked the entire front side of the
place so I could scalp some rooms in August.

Has anybody seen "Guacamole" around?

[Edit]

Norwester, I have a suggestion. --

Pyrite, 12:03:21 07/02/09 Thu [1]

If you find a need for a TIE BREAKER in any of the events, I have a doozie.
This is a nearly impossible feat, but scoring could be made just from who comes CLOSEST.

The event would be: PLEASING PYRITE !!!

Now if that ain't as close to impossible as it gits, I doone know wot is.

Also, I would like to relieve any difficulties with ACCOMODATIONS if I can.

We ALREADY have our ressavayshuns at da Caboose.

BUT.. If anyone shows up TOO LATE, their WIVES can stay with me. The GUYS can sleep in Cobb's driveway or wotever.

This could also be counted toward the TIE BREAKER event, too.

[Edit]

CO-rrection.............that wuz a TYPO error reg. the "any rifle" --

Pyrite, 10:37:01 07/02/09 Thu [1]

Oh GREAT! Do you realize HOW MANY CLICKS UP that will be for my High Standard .22 PISTOL? I figger if I can't CLEAN UP usin just a PISTOL, I mite as well throw it in the Kootenai.
NOW I gotta bring the Barrett.
And SEVENTY FIVE yards? Hell, don't you remember how desperately I searched for 75 oz. bars a sludge?
Sheesh.

[Edit]

M O N T A N A F E S T ..........info will be forthcoming.... -- Norwester, 00:36:40 07/02/09 Thu [1]

.
..I'm hoping to send out a more complete email to anyone
who is planning to come to Libby for the Labor Day Weekend
festivities .......will try to get that out this weekend...

MEANWHILE, IF YOU KNOW FOR SURE that you're planning to
attend, you may want to make some reservations for a motel
VERY SOON as the clerk at the Caboose Motel mentioned they
were damned-near FULL for that weekend....There are plenty
of other motels nearby and across the street, so check the
general listings here:

http://www.libbymt.com/businesses/motels.htm#other

Besides the Caboose, probably the two nicer places are:

The Roadway Inn
448 Hwy 2 West, Libby, MT 59923, (406) 293-2771
Venture Motor Inn & Restaurant
443 Hwy 2 W, Libby, MT 59923, (406) 293-7711
.
....both of these right in the same area as the Caboose
and alongside or across the street from the Treasure
Mountain Casino and Restaurant where we'll have our
"welcoming get-together" dinner on Sat. night, the 5th....

I'll try to get that info out on Sunday -- anyone who HAS
and interest in attending, send me an email address so that
I can forward YOU the info, too....

Shit, man, you are tawkin ...(in case ya fergot)... FORTY!
Yes....FORTY.... yards. FOUR ZERO!!!

This will prove discriminatory for most of us.

Not MANY of us have rifles that will carry THAT FAR OUT!

I am gonna hafta get ALL NEW rubber bands. And the economy is TUFF!

[Edit]

Calculating the enormous DROP at ..... FORTY... whole yards with a SCOPE --

Pyrite, 14:06:15 07/01/09 Wed [1]

shud put a "zeroed" rifle (at 40 yards...with ANY kinda mount) oh... hmmm... plastique ruler.... sweat sweat... think think....AHHH!
Yes! That should put POI on the boolet at a full hunnert YARDS... 83 feet high.
Give or take twenny feet.

[Edit]

Heh-heh........o.k., PieRite gets ta shoot at da regular distances... -- Norwester, 11:01:08 07/01/09 Wed [1]

...juss NO usin' short-barrel shotguns wid slugs!

The 120-foot "any rifle" shoot, WILL ALLOW SCOPES...wuz
juss seein' if you were awake....YES, scoped rifles are
allowed and for most of us NECESSARY for anything over
100' as it is!

psssstttt....I'll give ya $500 for the Barrett, PieRite...

If I discover I wasted all that money --

since the last shoot there is a full trap range there now.do you want to have someone there? are we doing shotguns this year? whats this open sights shit for the 120 ft shoot, sounds like cobber got that one through.

[Edit]

tarbo.....mmmm.....SAME/same....as in the past.... -- Norwester, 18:00:20 06/30/09 Tue [1]

....for PieRite, he will be shooting the pistol round from
85 yards/ .22 Rifle at 225 yards / any rifle open-sights at 375 yards...

THE REST OF US will use 50' for Pistol Shoot, 25-yards for
the .22 rifle event, and 120 ft. for the "any rifle" open-sights event...

HE won way too many prizes last time around, so we're
gonna need a little 'buffer'....SAME fer Rack, too!

HEY, IF you know anyone with a pigeon thrower [clay
pigeons, that is], we could maybe even try a little
scattergun event, too, for them what likes a bit o'
shotgunning ????

CNBC: "This Market Continues To Be Propped Up By Government Intervention And Manipulation" -- AeweWuf, 13:45:23 06/29/09 Mon [1]

"Amusing to see the biggest propaganda voice for the administration and General Electric let this one slip. At 2:22 in the video below, Larry Levin discloses the truth about ongoing flagrant market manipulation. That's why CNBC needs a 15 second delay, although Freudian slips among all the noise are why watching the channel can be so rewarding at the end of the day.

You can count me if IF I CAN CLEAR MY WORK SCHEDULE.

I would leave. We got a two man company and if we have any work I have to take the money. I suspect other have the same problem. So do you have a drop dead date for a commitment?

or 3rd of SEPTEMBER, a few days ahead of the 'Fest to

5 or 6 "warm bodies" who are willing to pitch in with
some cleaning, painting, a little shrub-trimming and
yard work, and so forth....MIGHT find some time to sneak

...I'll be sending emails to a number of folks directly
with more info, etc., and will have a "general overview"
email available for anyone else who is interested and
might be considering attending...BUT, for now, suffice it
to say that JC claims he's going to persist in staying
among the living despite some ill health this past winter,
and promises to at least make it thru the 'Fest on this
side of the dirt.....SO IT'S A GO !

The general dates will be as in the past, basically over
the Labor Day Weekend and holiday...

SATURDAY-- September 5th -- no-host dinner get-together
at the Treasure Mountain Bar & Casino:
fun, food, frolics and announcements for
the REST of the activities to follow...
We'll meet there around 5:30-6:00 pm for dinner

SUNDAY -- The 5th Annual GREAT SHOOT-OFF out at the Libby
Gun Range, format similar to in the past
with categories for pistol, .22 rifle, and
any caliber RIFLE [sorry, PieRite, no slug
guns!], with prizes awarded for the top
TEN shooters in each event....
We'll be there by 10:30 for preliminary practice
with the first events starting around Noon...
( Probably followed by an informal pot-luck sort of
affair back at Fort Cobb that afternoon....and very
likely continuing into the evening hours with poker
playing in the rec. room.....)

MONDAY --- WITH FOLKS GATHERING AROUND NOON AT FT. COBB,
THE 'FEST BARBEQUE -- always the most savory
part with plenty of Ribeyes, Filets, Beer-
Butt Chickens, maybe Earl's famous smoked
Ribs, IDT's Polski sausages, and a smattering
of Moose meat and Venison, too, most likely...
PLENTY of good eats, congenial b.s. sessions
and relaxing out by the Kootenai....WITH THE
SHOOT-OFF AWARDS as the culminating event...

THAT'S THE GENERAL SCHEDULE...for more specific information
regarding motels, etc., feel free to contact ME early on
this as many of them fill-up with out-of-town visitors who
are seeing friends & relatives in the area at the same
time as our 'Fest dates........

Should AVG antivirus run at STARTUP? If so, how do I get it there?
run>msconfig> shows only

reader... for Adobe I think
ctfmon

and

SUPER antispyware

I get conflicting advice on whether to run the A/V on startup or just have it in the box and scanning periodically.

HELP!

wottup with this comment from a gun seller? -- Norwester --

Pyrite, 16:38:18 06/21/09 Sun [1]

never heard of that. I'm purdy close with a cupple dealers. I....think.... it is part of the crackdown on ..HOME.. FFL dealers.

Haven't heard any stores complain.

Calif DOJ has ALWAYS bin a bitch. For me to have pawned guns, I wudda had to install all metal doors, have NO gun visible from a window or door, and put grates on ALL HVAC registers.

Which is no great burden as I axed em if I could substitute a locked DOG KENNEL for the storage and not bother with the other shit cuz a dog kennel (locked) meets all requirements.
An they sed sure.

BUT... the reezun I didn't was that my liability insurance was gonna be $2500 a MONTH to pawn guns.

Uh... dint see the risk/reward there with us plannin to re-TARR in a few yeers.

I would suspect anyone not wanting to sell to CA FFL would just be protesting another level of shit.

But volume dealers will do it.

I think.

For Father's Day --

Pyrite, 12:23:40 06/21/09 Sun [1]

Dear old dad it's father's day
and I just want you to know
you're the best there ever was
at the things I'll list below:

Stinking up a bathroom
Snoring like a beast
Teaching me to mow the lawn
before I had front teeth.

Showing how to hide your feelings
Over-emphasizing winning
Teaching me the birds and bees
at a Cub game between innings.

Turning off our cartoons for
news and "Meet The Press".
Picking a vacation spot
where clowns could get depressed.

Never taking out the dog.
Forgetting my friends names
Picking at your nose while coaching
all my baseball games.

I guess as I grow older,
I'm supposed to get like you,
and in some ways I must admit
I think that this is true.

When I yell my veins pop out
I've yet to touch a broom
I chuckle in my Lazy Boy
when gas clears out a room.

But one thing you won't catch me doing
as long as I can breathe...
That's wearing shorts around the yard
with dress-socks to my knees.

[Edit]

D@mn... -- strat, 12:12:33 06/21/09 Sun [1]

...even pawnshops are goin' broke?

Our local 'burg is deep in the red after a positive
report back in January. Is California officially
broke yet or is The Terminator just whining? Local
and state gov't jobs ain't even safe anymore.

Credit card defaults are rising too. Will that trip
another banking crisis? Home prices are going nowhere,
even farmland prices are dropping.

Think I'll start drinkin' early today.

Interesting variance, PieRite, from what's happened around here.... -- Norwester, 18:29:16 06/20/09 Sat [1]

.
...a guy who owns two busy Pawn Shops here in the Seattle
area was in last week to "dump" 10-oz. of Platinum that had
been part of a large loan that defaulted...he'd made the
loan, too, when Plat was pushing $2K, altho he'd only let
the guy have about $1100./oz. on loan, so he was still safe
at the default level, but just barely....BUT, he HAD to get
it sold as his 'reserves' were down to "under-$25K" at the
time he came in, an amount he's able to loan-out virtually
EVERY DAY between the two shops....in other words, he's
scrambling -- and has been, apparently, for the past 2-3
months as stuff continues to "pour in"....He's seeing a
rate of 35%+ defaults, too, since the first of the year,
and it's mostly "better stuff", like Rolexes and custom
jewelery, big diamonds and coin collections, etc. ...stuff,
as he says, that in "normal times" is pretty easy to move
and quite liquid [at a price!] that NOW is going begging
for buyers.....He's barely broken-even offing some of the
big diamonds, especially, stuff he'd loaned less that 10%
of "appraisal" for originally....ugh....and he can't GIVE
Rolexes and such away, unless they're dirt cheap....

So, HE is still getting more stuff IN than he can handle,
but getting quite gun-shy about what he'll loan on virtually
ANYTHING at this point, with the lack of buyers for the
stuff that's defaulting.....

************************************************************

[Edit]

Pawn shop? Nope, not for me. --

Pyrite, 16:35:36 06/20/09 Sat [1]

I just visited a former colleague in his pawnshop. He's still sitting behind the counter with a S&W strapped on but the wife isn't as glitzy as she was.

The counters are full and the back room contains shelf after shelf of chainsaws, compressors, and other CONSTRUCTION tools.

We both got quite a lot of bigger, fancier stuff.

I asked how the pawn bizz was.

He said, "not that hot."

He said that it was pretty good until the end of last year and the beginning of this one. But now NEW loans are very very very scarce.

I asked about defaults.

He said 22%..... currently

That's HIGH!

He said he had some recent LARGE loans default and I said I bet he wished they hadn't. He said he would rather have the money.

And I can understand that. I luckily consigned ALL my jewelry to a high end retail location and they paid me what I would have sold it for in the pawnshop environment. Then they kicked it higher. I also put EVERY tool on eBay. We were the pawnshop with no stock.

We retired in 2003. Our shop demographics were in the heart of Subprime Estates. Our largest GROWTH zip code was the elite new construction. NICE stuff. Mercedeses, Beemers, big diamonds, Rolexes. But our defaults went 15-20-35-45-65% and we were obviously EMPTYING the collateral from our area.

He's in an older section but it's still grinding lower and defaults higher.

His bright smile is quite subdued. Nothing is selling and few are borrowing.

When the pawnshops start hurting, we're in deep shit.

Pawns receivable are GREAT, if they pick the stuff up and you can find BUYERS for the defaults. That no longer exists.

It is made of zinc so it will tone like a steelie penny someday. If that isn't enough to persuade you to trade for that COMMON Colt, then I don't know what is.

A yuppie was opening the door of his BMW when a car came along and hit the door, ripping it off completely. When the police arrived at the scene, the yuppie complained bitterly about the damage to his car.

"Officer, look what they've done to my Beemer!"

"You yuppies are so materialistic, it's ridiculous" retorted the officer. "You're so worried about your stupid BMW, you didn't even notice that your left arm was ripped off."

I looked at Speers web site and as I remember it the 135 gr is the preferred feed for snub nose guns. The Speer book has loads for 110 gr and the 125 gr but the 135 must not be available as a component-loaded only ammo? The vel for the 135 was like 935 fps in a 2" barrel
and the 125gr were less in a 4"-thats per my fried brain and memory. I bought a box of the 125gr and they seem slower than the 158gr LSWC I load and carry.

Meanwhile, I went to another gun show today, and to the
rifle range afterwards....AMMO was in good, healthy supply
for a change, with lots of 'case deals' of both fresh and
reloaded stuff in many, many calibers....lots of primers
and bullets available, too, on tables nearby to the ammo
dealers' 10 tables along one wall....NOT as crowded as in
the past, either, altho the unusually nice weather of late
may have kept folks off doing other stuff....

Took that trashcan-shootin' .45 LE Kimber to the range
today with a neat lil' bull-barrel Colt .22 that I'd picked
up last year, and a Hungarian AK clone....NOW I know why
the .45 Kimber hit so far right on the trashcan in my
computer office....sumbitch was WAY OFF on the front
sight...coupla taps and I got it into proper alignment...
NOW, I can blast that trashcan dead center, next time...
heh-heh....The lil' Colt .22 is a sweet lil' gun, too, and
may be RENTED from me for use at MontanaFest for those who
want something that's very tight on the center circle at
25 yards.....That Hungarian AK [7.62 x 39 ] was surprisingly
accurate at 50 yards, open sights...fun gun to shoot...

And I didn't even get mad --

Pyrite, 12:55:27 06/10/09 Wed [1]

when I went down to renew my PACKING permit and got SENT PACKING for being too EARLY!

You see, my permit will not expire for not quite another whole THREE WEEKS. And being that I got squeezed one year by the VACATION of the gun person, I just thought I would do it a bit early. You see, the NEW ones don't take EFFECT until the old one expires anyway.

BUT.... being that they are now shorthanded and getting pressure from furloughs and layoffs and EXTRA DUTIES, I can see their point.

The process entails taking two checks from me and holding an ink pad for my fingerprint.

A time consuming process if ever there were.

So, I am now just waiting until the PREFERRED time to renew.

It did, however inspire me to compose a pledge to help myself try to overcome my unreasonable expectations of our fine public servants.

Pyrite, 12:48:39 06/10/09 Wed [1]

Oh no, sir. Not ME. I was just having a healthy VENT! A teacher of mine told my mother I would never have a heart attack as I did not participate in HOLDING IT IN!
I was just SAD to think that someone who found it was possibly BLIND! Or unable to READ!
Ya know, with INITIALS all over the thing, it is just tragic that the finder was unable to determine that it might have BELONGED to someone.
And that the poor soul could not even afford a NEWSPAPER where I ran a 10 day ad.
Nor see as far as the REWARD poster I had up where I lost it.
No, it is just sad to know that poor unfortunate souls who are sightless are expected to negotiate our streets.

Awwwwwww..... I weep.

Top twelve signs of a rotten economy --

Pyrite, 10:06:44 06/08/09 Mon [1]

12. CEO’s are now playing miniature golf.
11. I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.
10. I went to buy a toaster oven and they gave me a bank.
9. Hotwheels and Matchbox car companies are now trading higher than GM in the stock market.
8. Obama met with small businesses - GE, Pfizer, Chrysler, Citigroup and GM, to discuss the Stimulus Package.
7. McDonalds is selling the 1/4 ouncer.
6. People in Beverly Hills fired their nannies and are learning their children’s names.
5. The most highly-paid job is now jury duty.
4. People in Africa are donating money to Americans. Mothers in Ethiopia are telling their kids, “finish your plate; do you know how many kids are starving in America?”
3. Motel Six won’t leave the lights on.
2. The Mafia is laying off judges.

And my most favorite indicator of all.
1. If the bank returns your check marked as “insufficient funds,” you have to call them and ask if they meant you or them.

And AUs priced at 63 pricing. Still wearing the "AU" label, a coors that will be all anyone will look at when you TRY to sell the sucker, but other than that it looked busy although I dint see no MUNNY changin hands.
I did get to chat with an OLD OLD coin buddy who had lost 125k on muni bonds.

Sal Glesser, the owner of Spyderco just posted this on his forum.

"With Crucible's filing Chapter 11, it's hard to know what they will keep in the "knife steel line-up". Scott says they're have opportunities, but nothing has been decided as yet. I heard rumors that CPM-154Cm will no longer be made, but that the regular knife steels would be available."

So if ya want a GOOD knife, gettem now.

Gonna be a LOT of cheap China shit around purdy soon.

I wuz at a store an saw a first production of a Benchmade that LOOKS like a Spyderco, but was made in China and worked like it was fulla sand.

...ASSuming we continue to grind lower from here, the
first support for Gold comes in about $946-ish, the 18-day
moving average....below that, a LOT of intersecting lines
cross near $918-$920. ...should that area give way, there's
not much support before the old $860. level where it's made
a number of previous lows....the bottom of the former
channel it was in was around $800. by the way....it's a
long-shot "maybe", perhaps by late summer if things are
really weak.....

SLUDGE should have support at about $1.00 intervals, with
the first around $14.65, then $13.65, then $12.75, and the
lower former resistance line around $12.30-ish....it gets
too ugly below that to speculate....

That's what I'm seeing IF we start into a seasonal "grind-
lower-and-make-the-goldbugs-squeal" pattern again this year....

It COULD repeat....or maybe not....

...the city police used 'em during football riots. Five
per cannister, fired from S&W tear gas guns. Aim 'em at
the pavement before the retreating crowd, and the crowd
retreated that much faster. Those things would bounce
around hitting folks in the legs. Once in a while, some
hothead with a badge would swing it right at some a-hole
yelling profanities. When those things started flying,
I always peeled away from the crowd and snuck down some
dark alley.
