dynomike1 Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) We had a good meeting with some good people and got the first step out of the way. I got home and shot a test shell and it worked perfect. How can you beat a day like that. Oh I also want to thank Fotia for the info. he sent me. Edited February 26, 2017 by dynomike1 1
Boophoenix Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Glad ya had a good day Mike. I'll keep in touch with you and others on info as things develope.
Boophoenix Posted March 4, 2017 Posted March 4, 2017 Well here we go again. Just a reminder we're planning a second gathering to try to get this ball rolling a week from today March 11 at 10am CMT 2000 Meridian Blvd, Suite 250 Franklin, TN 37067 Be there if you're in the area or may your visco be hard to lite, lol
OldMarine Posted March 4, 2017 Posted March 4, 2017 Had a scare a moment ago. Got a notification of my Grandbaby's birthday for the 11th. After I actually read the reminder though it was just an alarm to order gifts for her day the following weekend. Whew!
dynomike1 Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 I heard Cool Springs had a Tornado the other day.
OldMarine Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 It hit near where we were but Brad said the damage wasn't too bad. Looking forward to the next one.
Boophoenix Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 If you came in threw Nashville instead of via 840 Mike you drove threw part of the path. It crossed threw the mall area across the interstate and followed Moores lane. Most of the damage was minor. Trees, bushes, some light poles, a few garage doors in local businesses, word was Old Navy lost all their windows, and a few homes with damage.
Fotia Posted March 5, 2017 Author Posted March 5, 2017 (edited) It hit near where we were but Brad said the damage wasn't too bad. Looking forward to the next one.Your looking forward to the next tornado? Who says pyros don't live dangerously. Edited March 5, 2017 by Fotia
OldMarine Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 Your looking forward to the next tornado? Who says pyros don't live dangerously. Gets my rockets on up there!
Fotia Posted March 5, 2017 Author Posted March 5, 2017 (edited) In the words of Steve Laduke " just add whistle" Edited March 5, 2017 by Fotia
OldMarine Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 In the words of Steve Laduke " just add whistle"Even better than the whistle is the whole damned freight train!
OldMarine Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 I've had a whole house ripped off the foundation above me so I'd describe it as a fast moving freight falling from 20,000 feet on your head. We came out of the basement and that was all that was left, the basement. We had 16 tornadoes that day and I still notice pressure changes to this day because you could tell when they were coming because your ears would pop.
dynomike1 Posted March 7, 2017 Posted March 7, 2017 I know the feeling. One year not long ago we had 6 to come through here and 1 came all the way from Memphis. Don't know why Bill sent it. 1
Boophoenix Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 With the probabability of poor weather it seems the prudent think would be to use your own descression. We have some people from out of town who are on the hook for rooms that are planning to proceed. So will get some minor things out of the way.
OldMarine Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Why the hell are they salting the roads today if it's going to rain and wash it all off tonight?
Fotia Posted March 10, 2017 Author Posted March 10, 2017 Why indeed when it has to be below freezing for several hours before it freezes. This is why the state has no money for the things we need.
OldMarine Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Well they'll have to salt them again Friday night so they may as well be pissing in the wind. I have to keep reminding myself that we're one of the better managed states. Makes me really pity the rest of the country.
Boophoenix Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Civil has a contract on the Franklin side and they use it. So does my local DOT too though.
dynomike1 Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Well i'll just be Dam. I guess there will be no meeting next weekend.
MrB Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Why the hell are they salting the roads today if it's going to rain and wash it all off tonight? The dude doing the salt-works, gets paid for every hour he's on the road. If the weather report in the slightest hints at cold weather, of they go, and leech another bucket of money from the taxpayers funds.Isn't it great?B!
OldMarine Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 I needed to figure out how to work that game plan into plumbing. I could make a fortune fixing faucets that look as if they MIGHT start leaking!
