Quit bragging, you're not humble enough, take some hints from our resident humblemaster.

Quit bragging, learn some humbleness.

Savoche you have some teaching to do.

True mastery can't be learnt just like that. For non-Norwegians it will take years of dedicated study and meditation. Of course, you have to start out being wealthy, too, as handing over your money to the guru is an important part of reaching Humbleness.

Sorry about that. NOT!!!!!!!

You'll never reach Canuckhood.

Sorry, eh.

This discussion is not in the least informative.

I think we were talking about muzzleloaders rather than Lee-Enfields in that particular instance.

Indeed we were.

I imagine almost every beast on this earth has been hunted with a Lee-Enfield.

Probably. But the .303 would make some of those beasts rather angry if you're not very careful with where you place the shot. Even a .458 doesn't guarantee anything. I had a guide who, on an earlier occasion, had encountered an already-angry buffalo - it came at full speed through a bush close by. He didn't have time to lift his rifle before firing. The shot hit the bull in the upper jaws. He hardly slowed down at all. André the guide ended up on his back furiously working the bolt action while being drenched in blood from the buffalo standing over him. The next shot hit where it should at point blank. André was badly bruised but nothing crushed or broken.

His group of tourists were all rather shaken by the incident but they did finish their four-day trek. André needed professional help to work away his fear of buffalos, though.

Yep, I'd really like to do that trek

I'm here. I'm looking out over the Pacific Ocean towards where the sun came up a few hours ago.

Riiight....

Shh, don't tell anyone. I just don't want those tin foil heads around here to know, but I've been to the DownUnder for a star party a few years ago - terrific Southern skies. I know that you guys actually exist, but for some around here, that might be a dangerous position to take in public. Just check out that "other" thread in General Talk. You'll see.

Riiight...

Worst burger I eat ever... I was in a hurry and stopped by one of those Dutch-style fries shop.
They dropped the hamburger in frying oil

Bet it cured your hunger, though

. . . . I hate flying commercial. Uncomfortable and TSA maroons could ruin anyone's day.

I have always loved flying, but the TSA and a few other things related to commercial flights have taken all the fun out of it.

Still, if I can get in the air while at the controls, I’m in!

[Racer X 69]

I disagree, cook it right the first time, learn the touch method or use an instant read thermometer.

Yeah, every time you place it back on the fire it gets drier.

[Racer X 69]

if they over cook it the first time before they check, then what the heck do they do

They can just eat it.

Most people who don’t like it rare usually like it over cooked.

The only way to enjoy the flying experience anymore, That's why I drive anywhere I need to be in North America. It's a lot less of a hassle.

What's the point of it being meat then? it could be anything from seitan to carboard to chipboard. It would all taste the same.
