The only way I could get my bike back(along with whatever parts were recovered) was to pay some fee that was more than the bike was worth new. Basically like an impound/storage fee. So my parents ended up buying me a new bike.

Avoid the Savage Axis. It’s cheap for a reason. And the trigger sucks.
Gotta give you credit…that’s funny.

Not to take this thread off topic, but is David Cross holding a corndog in this gif?
I’ll occasionally scroll through the dial and give his “show” a couple of minutes on my commute home.

It’s basically a shitty version of Jim Rome’s old schtick where he lets people share their crappy views and “insights” on football; mostly ignorant Bama, Auburn, and Georgia fans who share some type of “a-ha!” moment.

In other words, he’s a copy-cat shite stirrer.
We have to beat La Tech first.

Not that I think that will be a problem but they did hang 80 on the team they played.

I wish I had a couple of tiny houses for rent for this game on my farm. The prices I’ve seen are pretty high.

I do have a friend with an opening in Bruce (she’s out of town and needs to get back to check her bookings) on a 650 ac farm. It’s about a half hour drive.

We own a farm in Batesville. It’s a small town, but I rather like it.

It will never be a bustling metropolis, but that’s kind of the point after living in BR for 38 years.

I’d recommend stopping to eat at the Kennel Club, which is across Hwy 6 from the Academy.
Food is good to very good. I tend to order the queen pork chop or a steak. The seafood dishes wont match South La, but they’re okay.

I mostly avoid Oxford unless I have to do business there. I’ll admit the square is nice on game day (as is the Grove) for the eye-candy.
I do miss the cooking and fishing in South La.
No. I didn’t “pull a gun”.

I was sitting in my truck with a gas nozzle in the tank filling up, with a blocked-in truck, and speaking to my wife on the phone.

An aggressive person exited the convenience store, saw a college license plate, and unexpectedly initiated conflict by pounding on the hood, screaming incoherently, and opening the passenger side door with one hand out of sight (behind the truck door he opened).

The first thing you learn as an enhanced concealed carrier permit holder is to withdraw if possible. In this instance, in the time it would have taken me to open the door and exit the vehicle to retreat, I could have been shot.

If someone doesn’t value their own life to initiate conflict, that’s their problem.

My job is to return home to my wife and family every evening.
Kiss my arse MF’er.

I live in the middle of these assholes and I can tell you it happened at the Murphy Gas station in Batesville.
I live about 20 miles from Oxford and I can tell you there is a certain portion of the Ole Miss fan base that is completely unhinged.

I have an LSU license plate on the front of my truck. One day I was heading home from work and stopped for gas. My wife calls just as I put the nozzle in, so I got in the truck to talk.
Guy comes out the convenience store and starts pounding on the hood of my truck and screaming something incomprehensible …I’m like, “WTF is this guy yelling about?”
He keeps screaming at me when I put my hand up to my ear in the universal “I’m on the phone” sign.
He then proceeds to OPEN my passenger side door and resumes screaming at me about Lane Kiffen.
At that point I had my pistol in my hand and told him I don’t give a shite about a football coach, but I was going to drop him if he didn’t close that fricking door and push off.
He slammed the door when he saw the barrel pointed at him and walked back to his vehicle STILL yelling about Lane.

Completely unhinged.


Just park in a spot further away and haul your fat arse into the store.

Keeps your truck from getting dinged and get a little extra exercise.

It’s not that hard…..

Is Batesville a major poultry producer? If so, how do they heat the growing areas with this damage?


No. Batesville doesn’t produce poultry, as far as I know.

It is a crossroads of about 7,500 at the intersection of I-55 and Hwy 6 with Oxford being about 25 miles east along Hwy 6.

Industrywise, GE Aerospace and metal fabricators…along with cattle production and agriculture.
It’s most definitely not cosmopolitan. ;-)

You couldn’t pay me enough to do that job


If you were doing that job, you wouldn’t need/want to have a farm. Lol

Finally got out on my farm today.

The destruction reminds me of a good sized hurricane. It’s pretty bad in the Batesville area.
Our place has all sorts of huge trees layed over.
And every darn one is across my fence:-)
In the Army there is the Oath of Enlistment to support the Constitution.

Public officials take a similar Oath of Office.

Walz and Frey have advocated against the Constitution by fanning the flames to not peacefully protest.
Not right now. I’m tapping my foot for sun-up to assess damage.
I’ve been through a lot of hurricanes in my time, but this storm is a new one.

I posted this on the other thread:::

We’re in Batesville MS and just had a huge pine limb knock our electrical service line and weatherhead off the side of our house. Also broke a window on that side.

Waiting for daylight to assess the damage and take pic for insurance purposes.

Hope everyone stays safe.
