    That Gurl, Lets compare tree attacking stories :)

    My son had a storm blow over a big tree onto the edge of his barn and fence last summer. It took three times as long to cut it up because I analyzed EVERY cut. I'm scared of trees and respect the hell out of them now. :)

    Looking to buy 1000 rounds of .223 range ammo.

    Best place you've found to purchase .223 rounds for range practice? Any suggestions? Trushotammo seems to be the best I've found so far, with the LEO/Military discount.

There was a program where IRS-CI agents would go to local high schools and have a career program trying to inform students about the job. Trying to drum up interest and applicants down the road. The students would role-play and...
