Yes because internet banter will eventually lead to sharpshooting off of a ridge somewhere. Totally see that connection. lol jiffy you bruise easily my guy

 

[Jiffy]

Huh?

 

[tikkalover]

Can't we all just fight nice??

 

[johnr]

Not defending anybody, but if we all go pointing fingers at screwing around at work, I think we may be calling the kettle black.

Everyone at some point gets some break time?

Don’t try to make sense of this.

 

[johnr]

Never worked for the government, as I am too honest, but I have sure paid them for their fine services, and think I am over paying.

 

[tikkalover]

Me to, just paid my property taxes today

The funny thing is I agree with trip on everything! I’m simply stating not to point fingers unless you’re damn sure nobody can point back. His inference to screwing around at work on the tax payer’s dime was ill advised. Don’t build yourself up to just be broken down. It makes you look bad. School of hard knocks has taught some of us older guys some humility. It’s a hard lesson. The fact is I’m proud of guys like him who are fighting the good fight. It’s true, I don’t want to anymore. Keep up the good work.

Is 223 big enough for deer and what do you guys think about slot limits? Does a guy really need to spend $2k on a camo outfit and $700 on a pair of boots? Asking for a friend... How bout those vikes?!

And Francis i was just fucking with you on all of it. I believe what I am saying yes but only trying to flip some shit at ya. Im glad you caught the Achilles reference, so hopefully you understand Im saying it in my end of the week messing around tone. You shoulda caught the “brah” statement as well. And I’ll admit mess around plenty at work but I also don’t expect the taxpayers to foot the bill. That was my point

All in good fun. . . we are all getting "hosed".

Francis “Linda” Jiffy….. born 1846. Old enough to know better and still too old to care.

 

[Jiffy]

Maybe I need to change my name to that?

Vikes - Super Bowl appearance coming soon
Boots - $700 is bush league you should seriously be in the $978-1,035 range
Camo Outfit - Good ballpark for the newbie, bump that price a little to level up for fat frame large square sunglasses so people know you mean business
223 for deer - As long as you are using 77gr TMK or or 80-88gr ELD-M

W.I.P. He says thanks and needs to wait til next payday as he just spent $350 on the new specs..(Scheels is out of his price range now as he thinks they've lost their minds and I can't say I disagree with him..)

Hey Brock, when you get off work, I have an equation. Need a smart guy to figure it.

NDA Post 20

What does the CWD Research and Management Act say?

https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/senate-bill/4111/text

$70 million per year divided equally between research and surveillance and monitoring. We all get that. However, read the last sentence:

(3) SET-ASIDE FOR WILDLIFE AGENCIES.—Of the funds used to carry out subsection (c), not less than 75 percent shall be used to provide direct financial assistance to eligible entities described in subsection (a)(3)(B).

It's written in government speak and reads like an equation. Does it say the state wildlife agencies are guaranteed 75% of $420 million? Maybe 75% of their half of the $420 million? Is that like an earmark?

I am not accusing anyone of essentially writing their own checks from the US General Treasury but......
