    Not much to see on the buck and don't have any pictures after, but here is a pic that our game cam caught the day before. The year before we saw him on camera and we always called him "dinky".

    So its pretty sweet that every now and then I get 4G LTE in my deer stand. Unfortunately it means developments are getting closer to where I hunt.

    Good to know. Will have to pick some up when we head that way on the honeymoon. By the way, the fiance would swoon over those as much as I am.

    Unfortunately, real cooking is a dying art. I'm doing my best to save it. My gf can also make some mean sweets and does a really good job at being creative with it.

    Absolutely NOT. Knife sets are the stupidest things in the world. NO ONE ever uses of them. If you want to cook at all, it is a terrible idea. Idiotic. Terrible. Exception could be if you found a set that fit both your hands for all the knives. And no, that doesn't exist. If a knife isn't comfortable in your hands you CAN'T use it. So, if she really thinks you need uniformity step one is to educate her. I'm doing my best! Since we've met she now orders steaks medium instead of medium-well at restaurants and she also will eat medium rare if I cook it. She accepts and enjoys when I brown hamburger correctly, even if the entire apt smells like it for a couple days. I'm working one step at a time.

    I think I just read, satisfy your W's urge for perfect uniformity by getting a cheaper set of knifes, then go out and buy the knifes you want and keep them in sheaths in the drawer.

    L-6 is some sturdy shit. Corrosion becomes an issues however. I'm not familiar with good ways to keep working knives corrosion free. My Japanese kitchen knives use steel from a company called PowderMetal I think. One is "blue" and the other is "white". I think the Shun top knives use similar metal but then sandwich it with stainless. In those I keep them oiled like crazy. But one time I must not have completely covered one of them. It has the smallest patch of corrosion. Made me furious. I think that if you handle these steels right you can get them to patina and not worry so much about rust.The edge is a differrnt story though. The other option would be to ceracoat it. I worry about sharpening something with ceracoat ruining my stones however. Speaking of real knifes. The soon to be W and I are looking to have someone buy us some pots, pans and knifes. I need to become an expert and then find a place that people would buy them from.

    Lately it's been getting down to 32ish at home, so I'll try it out beforehand. Curious to find out if their rating is comfortable or survival. Check REI. My 25*C is rated comfortable from 20-40 and some form of the verbage "cutting it close" between 10 and 20

    On that note, I've been leaning towards purchasing one of these for my grinding needs. https://www.lehmans.com/p-2907-canning-jar-coffee-grinders.aspx

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Exactly, and fortunately we can get away with a cheaper grinder without the need for espresso fine grinds.

    You haven't been in school long enough if you think turning 50 coffee beans into xx,xxx perfectly sized pieces of dust is "relatively simple".
