He has been back IIRC about a year now and yes they were hunting him and he did not want to lose his pension. I moved out of Hellinois four years ago and will never go into Chicago but enjoy reading about the crap there that no one else will publish. Jim.
Stopped at a Steak & Shake a few weeks ago, first time we had been in one for years even though we both like their food. Had to order and pay at a kisok then they called your name to pick up the food at the counter. Eat and place your trash in the garbage can, that is it. To me it is a PITA...
Have a friend that came from Bloomington Illinois to Danville Illinois on I-74 yesterday evening. Eastbound traffic was light but westbound lanes were full and because of construction causing one lane to be closed was stopped in places. I crossed I-74 on an overpass around 10:00 PM where it...
"Responsible gun ownership" only comes out of the mouths of weasels. It also sounds like he wants mandatory training to own firearms. He should move to Illinois, he would fit right in with the RINO's over there. Jim.
I have a 645 along with a 4506 and 4513TSW and they are all DA 1st round then SA. They all have excellent triggers and will feed empty brass. The 645 is a beast with a stainless frame making it heavy enough to make a good club if you run out of ammo. All three of these will be with me until I...
It has been a lot of years now but my friend had an experience similar to this. He bought a old farm house in the country Fountain County IIRC and then had to take a job over in Illinois too far to commute. He started renting it and then the renter stopped sending money.
He called the...
Nice, now set it in place, level it and indicate everything. Also chuck up a dowel pin and put an indicator on it to check run-out. If you need help getting everything indicated DM me and I can help run you through the steps. No problem since I am a retired tool and die maker. Jim.
Back in Illinois there was a scumbag family that lived across the street, second generation "Section 8." I have no idea how that family ever bought the house but they did. Then they quit paying real estate taxes and it was bought in a tax sale. They would not leave so the new owner came down...
When We bought our empty lot I looked into having the property surveyed. It is a half acre lot in a small unincorporated community and it was going to be $1800.00 to 2200.00 from the two companies I talked to. The lower price company had recently done a survey in the neighborhood so could pick...
My idea on this has always been that there is very little chance of ever needing a firearm. But if you do need that firearm the chances are that you will need it right ******* now. Jim.
That was in a very narrow ruling that only involved the older lady that was involved. There is still a lawsuit pending to get rid of the FOID that was filed IIRC about 3 years ago. The Illinois courts are really good at slow walking 2A cases. Jim.

Not a heat pump, straight furnace and A/C unit so the furnace grabs a whole lot of juice. The generator does run the A/C fine but I do plan to install a soft start on the outside unit this spring. I do not know much about them except they do help start the A/C. Is there a way to do the same...
Late last spring we had a severe storm do huge damage to houses, trees and power distribution. Our power was out about seven hours but some of our neighbors were out over a week. Got a 12,000kw generator and I installed the plug in and interlock my self no big deal. House is all electric so...
Looks like the county map is showing only one downstate county that plans to enforce this crap law. That is Champaign county where the University of Illinois is located. Super liberal area that has been for years a sanctuary county besides a gun hating area. Vermilion county where I lived...
