    In North America, zebra mussels have few natural predators. Several species of fish (for example, catfish, green sunfish, freshwater drum) and ducks have been known to eat them, but these species are not an effective control.

    I am not sold on the splitters that push the blade into a flat stop… How many times, especially a gnarly wood.. do you load the next piece to finish the previous split through the fixed blade ? Not sure you can do that with the Stop being the fixed position. Anybody have experience with both ?

    They both will work, the fixed blade is best in my opinion if all your splitting is going to be horizontal. Vertical splitting has to be a fixed stop and movable blade. Yes I do have experience.

    You people do realize that Smithfield is a pork company and has little or nothing to do with beef and the processing of it.

    I’m down for that. They shouldn’t be able to operate a company inside the united states.

    Why not?

    1 last thing-Get a horizontal/vertical splitter whether you rent or buy, those 20″ + plus trunks get heavy. Elm is the toughest to split-everything else easy.

    Match Tonnage to Your Needs:

    4-7 tons: Optimal for small diameter, softwood logs (less than 12 inches).
    8-20 tons: Suitable for medium-sized logs (12-24 inches) and a mix of softwood and hardwood.
    20+ tons: Recommended for large diameter hardwood logs (24 inches and above) or when dealing with tough, knotty logs.

    If you mainly split soft, straight-grain, or dry, seasoned wood, 22-ton to 28 tons of power will suffice. If slow-burning hardwood will be in your wood stove this winter, then how many tons of force your log splitter can produce is much more of a factor.

    After any sanding, hit with clay bar, to remove any debris.

    After any sanding or using steel wool (0000) use a tack cloth, cheap and easy to use.

    I saw the part where Biden bent over at the waist and appeared to be straining to squeeze one out. The French PM’s wife give him the evil eye. Everyone else was trying to ignore it.. He was also caught on camera last week walking out to Marine one and having to stop, bend over and squeeze one out. When you see it on video, there’s no doubt what’s happening.

    So a bunch of posts giving much deserved honor and respect to those who displayed unimaginable courage and quite possibly saved the world and all you care do to is bypass that because politics means that much to you. You could have posted any form of tribute or thanks to those who literally gave their lives for us but commenting on a guy you don’t like is more important?

    I have a very strong desire to say something the mods wouldn’t think twice about kicking me off for.

    Get over yourself and find something else besides politics to care about. You could hijack any other thread but you chose one about men who jumped into shallow water and ran into machine gun fire. Men who parachuted into enemy territory and were shot at on the way down.

    Show some damn respect for these veterans who are no less than heroes.

    Dan: I commend you for your response. My Uncle and Dad both landed on Omaha beach 80 years ago on 6/6/44. Both lived to see the end of the war, my dad with a shot out hip and my Uncle with a burned scarred face. Why some have to make everything political I will never understand.

    Progress sure upsets some. Go back to 1910 and think what people would have said about the airplane and the Auto.

    WASHINGTON (AP) — The House passed legislation Wednesday that would establish a broader definition of antisemitism for the Department of Education to enforce anti-discrimination laws, the latest response from lawmakers to a nationwide student protest movement over the Israel-Hamas war.

    The proposal, which passed 320-91 with some bipartisan support, would codify the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of antisemitism in Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, a federal anti-discrimination law that bars discrimination based on shared ancestry, ethnic characteristics or national origin. It now goes to the Senate where its fate is uncertain.

    ^What the heck kind of schools are you near?

    Our school says the pledge daily, teaches about 9/11, has sports teams that often pray (by choice) before/after competition…

    You either have to get out of suburbia or quit guzzling some of the BS media out there.

    My kids go to a small rural school. Their entire high school class size is less than my graduating class. It’s the leadership at the schools that push the narrative and unfortunately our superintendents interests do not align with the majority of the community. Teachers are allowed to express their political/social beliefs but when students do it they are told it’s not allowed when it goes against that teachers political views.

    Seems to me the community decides who the Superintendent is, or I should say the School Board does and they are elected by the community.

    Glad the dogs are doing well. Just something to think about for future treatments.

    1) Is the dog native to the planet earth?

    2) Can the dog vote?

    If the answer to either is yes contact Walz as he has a extra 1.7B to spend on votes err, treatments.

    I bet you make taking a dump political.

    I have one with a 9.9 Mariner long shaft on it. 15 inch Transom. If you have a short shaft motor the long shaft is much better with 1 person fishing in it. The boat has 3 bench seats with 2 swivel seat lights and a solid flat wooden floor. No leaks or dents. The motor is a 1976 and runs perfect. The boats a 79. Trailer is A bench roller. I also have a 12 volt Minnkota trolling motor that goes with it. 2- 6 gallon tanks an 2 anchors.

    I’m willing to sell for $975 and meet you some where.

    If you feel it’s ok to shoot anything that comes on your property that’s not doing any damage or is doing minimal damage, how do you feel about someone who shoots a deer, moose, elk or pheasant that happens to be on it?

    My opinion is that some here would say that person should be prosecuted to the highest extent.

    So why do (Some of you) feel it’s ok to kill some ones pet (because you think it’s a threat to you or is causing damage to something you own? When was the last time a cat attacked you or damaged property for anyone you know personally.

    I know some one who was attacked by a moose, (In Alaska)

    Yeah there is really no excuse from anyone’s pet whether it be cat, dog or whatever not staying on their own property. Cat owners who let them roam freely are a real problem.

    What’s the real problem? In your opinion.

    Sorry to hear that. It is unfortunate that you could not make it work out. A few years ago we had one get hit before we could bring it indoors.

    Fortunately, we don’t live in an area where people feel it is necessary or appropriate to kill a cat just because it wandered onto their property. If one of mine happened to get out and I found out a neighbor decided to “take care of it”, we would have a very serious discussion.

    I agree with the serious discussion part. It should start with you apologizing for allowing your cat to enter his property and an admission that you are the one at fault, not them or the cat, for the death of the cat.

    It’s apparent you think it’s ok to kill if you don’t like whats happening. How about if my 2 year old happened to go outside and go into my neighbors yard?

    Long story short:

    I went and knocked on doors to try and gain permission to a private pond for minnow trapping.

    The first owner wasn’t home (they own 95% of it).

    The second owner (5%) was home

    If it’s water no one owns it. All you need is access to it, if there is no public access to it.

    100 years ago people just started accepting that the horse and buggy were going to go into the past. Some still today still are in that Era. Just think what another 100 years will bring.

    Not the first or last to ever be fired by a business that didn’t like what their employee was saying. The “false information” is looking more true every week.

    When it costs the business 790 million dollars, it’s probably a little more than not liking what he said.

    I know he’s not everyone’s favorite, but I loved this interview by Tucker. Touches on facts from the Floyd situation.

    And millions of people believe him, even though he was fired from a so called news organization for reporting false information.

    Who’s going to enforce these laws ? I haven’t seen law enforcement on the ice let alone checking anglers for anything in a long time. A 100 dollar fine is pretty petty. I like to see the threat bit I hardly believe it will impact the scum bags who litter all over.

    Talk to your local county sheriff: Two years ago I and my neighbor went out and hauled 2 big pickup loads of garbage off a 762 acre lake early in Feb. Took it to the county sheriffs office and showed it to them—things did improve.

    If you can’t control your party there is no way the majority of the people in this country are going to elect you President. The Electoral College may, but the people won’t.

    Did Biden give $6 billion to Iran?
    The Biden officials cleared that the sum was never a part of US taxpayer money, but rather payments made by South Korea to Iran to buy oil in recent years. The officials stressed that funds had been stuck in South Korea due to US sanctions, adding that money is now held in a restricted account in Doha.

    I believe the Pres. salary of $400,000 is the highest paid elected official in the Federal Gov. of the United States.

    Once every 2 years you vote for 1 House of Rep. 2 times over 6 years you select your 2 Senators and 1 time every 4 years you vote for a President. It shouldn’t take much time to learn something about the candidates and make your choice. You have no choice about the other 98 Senators or 434 House members.(It seems as though some here worry more about things they have no say in than what they have a voice in.)

    As for term limits: Republicans keep saying they want them, but they keep nominating and voting for the same person over and over. Democrats don’t want them.
    Age: If you feel the age is to extreme for the job they have to do, don’t vote for them.
