  Regardless of your thoughts on this topic, this is another post from LRH on the subject. I'm just gonna copy and paste the post here, because it's our thread on the matter, rather than the "stupid in other forums" thread.

  I quote from Varmiter71 on LRH:

  "The report that I read said, that there was a video of the kill.
  It also said a hornady bullet was used, but not which one. Could it be possible that he filmed it himself with a hornady bullet cam round.?"

  I think he's actually serious.

  Everything on the Primal rights site is great. There is a huge wealth of knowledge being shared there.

  The forums as well are again an immense amount of valuable information.

  Following the advice of Orkan will save you time, money, and frustration.

  However...there really is one more thing you need in order to really excel at precision shooting. It is the primal Rights class. It is amazing the amount of information I learned just from the couple of days of the class. It is worth the time it takes to take the class and it will save you 1,000's of rounds of shooting that it would take to learn the same information...if I ever would have.

  Found an older photograph from around 1998 of my toddler aged son, my 7 year old daughter, myself, Father and Grandfather while cleaning out a desk drawer.
  Small blessings come as a surprise.
  My Dad is 70 and Grandpa would be 92.
  The long holiday weekend July 4th, I need to make the drive up to Rabun County . River Bend may have a 600 yard match we could go watch even if we don't shoot.

  Here is who I work for.
  When Mr. Robby passed away people cried. He was an honest and good man and employer.

  After he stepped down and let Rob III run things, he would occasionally come in at night and tell a driver to get some sleep at home with his wife, tonight was on him and he would do the driver's night run.

  He would just show up and say hello.
  Good Family and they still own the businesses 100% and debt free.

  If they ever sell out to Wall Street, I will probably start looking for another job.
  Free individual health coverage and a 50% 401k match.
  That would not last under Wall Street Management.

  There are still some decent people to work for but they are rare.

  Self employed is the way to go if you can swing it.

  RIP Warriors.
  Never Forget

  Sorry I am late, since I was out at the range with my daughter on Mon. I have the utmost respect and admiration for all those that server our country. A couple of weeks ago my son played in the school's orchestra with members of the Fort Carson military a piece called "The Sons of Nam". It is a piece written by Kimo Williams, a Vietnam Vet. Normally he charges money for his music, but to our school he simply asked that the students in the band would write a short essay about Vietnam. He also came here and met with the kids at the school and listened as they played his piece. The piece was 21 minutes long and the kids had been working on it the entire year. He explained something about the mentality of those that join the military, he said, "we don't think that we can be shot and killed, we don't think that we may never come back or come back broken, we don't think that we may never see our families again, but only of the deep sense of love for our country and the sense of duty to answer the call to serve." So here's to all those who serve in our armed forces and to all those who have paid the ultimate price.

  Bullets from the Bible thread

  Today's bullets is especially pointed. -

  1 Peter 2:20-21 says, “For what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God. For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow in His steps.”
  We all know what it is like to be punished for doing wrong. How many people haven’t at one time or another been pulled over and given a ticket for speeding…and deserved it. Whether we just weren’t paying attention, or we didn’t know the speed limit, or we simply were trying to get somewhere faster…whatever the reason we were guilty of speeding and knew we were. There is no spiritual value in enduring punishment when we deserve that punishment. Yet when we have done no wrong and are punished for that and endure it…it is commendable before God. If we stand up for what is right there is going to come a time in our lives when we are punished and suffer for that stand. Our wicked world does not like righteousness and does everything they can to fight against it. Our world has even gotten to the point that at times it has taken that which is right and called it evil. When we endure punishment for doing good…it is commendable to God.
  Consider Christ. The perfect man. Yet He was called a lawbreaker and a criminal. He was punished as if He had been a criminal…yet he was innocent. Christ understands what we are going through when we suffer for doing right. He endured the ultimate persecution…all because He did what was best for others.

  He said to put it in your pocket until you get to a trash can.
  Still do the same thing to this day.

  Home NAS...

  Synology has been pretty prominent lately and I have run across a couple of them used by customers. I too am not a fan of NAS' and am much more an advocate for dedicated file servers. My biggest problem with them is that when they fail they fail in spectacular fashion. And because they usually use some proprietary RAID or OS it is not as simple as logging into your storage manager and seeing whats wrong also any troubleshooting is more difficult. Random drops in speed are an issue with a lot of NAS' too.
  
  If you know all that going into it and you have good backups then you are on the right track with your thinking and research. They have come a long way in recent years. I wouldn't use one for anything except storing files that I don't care if I lose. Being able to host VM's and SSD cache are nice features.

  Not to mention all the other terrible things in school. One of the things that made me hate school from an early age was that if ONE kid did something bad, EVERYONE was punished.

  ... now if that isn't one of the most socialist bullshit things in the entire world, I don't know what is.

  Hmmmm, we've been here before and our bombing then did nothing:
  "The Ghouta chemical attack occurred in Ghouta, Syria, during the Syrian Civil War in the early hours of 21 August 2013. Two opposition-controlled areas in the suburbs around Damascus, Syria were struck by rockets containing the chemical agent sarin. Estimates of the death toll range from at least 281 people[3] to 1,729.[14] The attack was the deadliest use of chemical weapons since the Iran–Iraq War...." Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghouta_chemical_attack

  Our Presidents response then when he was a civilian:
  
  

  I wish just for once, one of our leaders would turn inward and focus on making us whole and great again, before jumping on board to "save" others. IF this war was truly about saving others and not about money....I do believe our approach would be different and we'd be busy cleaning our own home up first before attempting to clean others.

  I haven't been able to do anything this week, hopefully today.

  Between the weather (cold rainy windy) and waiting on utilities people, and working late it hasn't left much time to do things.

  Which is disappointing after last week went so well.
