      Where can I buy a hot plate? (not online)

      If there is one nearby, try a Rural King or Big R. I think Goodwill is another good option. MC

      How to dispose of old/bad ammo

      I have a similar issue - glad to read some of your suggestions. I inherited a few boxes of .222 shells that my grandfather reloaded. He's been gone since the early eighties, so they've been sitting in the back of my safe since then. I'd like to get rid of them because I don't know anything...

      New grill for the hubby, taking recommendations please

      Seems like the popular opinion, but I'd vote Weber too. I've had (still have) four of them: an old charcoal kettle, a Weber Q, an older Genesis and a new Genesis. They all work great and I've never had a problem with them (other than running out of gas in the middle of cooking - good think I...

      Indoor Range - Indy Northside

      The old Don's Guns building has been taken over (or replaced, that actual building may be gone) by car dealerships. Mostly Butler Toyota and Hyundai. MC

      Monon Community Center - Carmel

      Thanks for the replies. I'll probably have to purchase a membership as my wife likes the "atmosphere" of the facility as compared to other fitness places. She also likes the availability of a real pool (and lap pool) as compared to only a lap pool at other places. Anyone ever used their...

      Monon Community Center - Carmel

      Does anyone have an opinion of the fitness facilities at the Monon Center in Carmel? My wife wants to join so we took a tour a few days ago. Nice facility and not too crowded when we were there. I'm a little hesitant mostly due to the membership fee which is slightly higher than some other...

      Are you picky where you buy gas from

      As with many others, Pilot/Flying J when traveling due to their volume. At home, mostly Speedway (rewards card), Kroger (discounts from purchasing groceries) or Shell (same Kroger discount). I've never noticed much difference in mileage or performance between the brands. Pilot is my son's...

      Anyone have experience with Valentine 1 Radar Detectors

      My older Valentine One is still the best detector that I've owned. I don't drive as much as I used to and don't use it very much, but it has always served me well. I did have a problem with false laser alarms, especially when following certain vehicles, most notably Chevy Trailblazers...

      Poll for family men only: Do you go out to drink?

      Quit drinking 1/1/10, by choice. I only miss it when I fire up the grill - it was good to have a beer to two while cooking outside. Prior to that, I seldom went out without the family. Occasionally I go with my wife to meet friends at a restaurant/bar, but no drinkie for me. MC

      My 17 year old daughter is mad at me..

      I'm going slightly off topic, but I do think this is a great point. Too many parents think that the brief driving instruction kids receive in Drivers Ed along with a little additional practice is enough. I don't think so. I let my 17 year old (still has a learner's permit at this time) drive...

      Carmel and Lifetime Permit Procedure

      I think this has pretty much been beat to death, but I'll add my opinion/experience anyway... I renewed one permit in Carmel several years ago and there was no interview involved. More recently, I re-applied for a lifetime permit (actually I had let my old permit expire so I had to fill out...

      They just locked the doors and gave the keys to the bank

      I assume typical metalworking equipment - is it sheetmetal (shears, brakes, spot welders, etc.) or lathes and milling equipment? I'm looking forward to the auction info if it goes that way. MC

      Greetings

      Welcome from Central IN. I, too, enjoy passing along shooting sports to my two boys. It's a lot of fun and I get to spend time with them (and them with me :)). MC

      Another noob...

      Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. Hopefully I'll be able to contribute a little as well as learn a lot. MC
