I had my travel trailer set up on a location for the last 5 years. I tried to move it this weekend and man, what a job. I thought I was prepared, brought tools, spare tire and air compressor. I put air in all 4 tires (all were low as they were sitting there for 5 years). I pulled it out and decided to air the tires up to recommended pressure. I had completed 3 and was airing 4 when #3 exploded. When I say exploded.....I MEAN EXPLODED!! A buddy of mine has a camp about a mile away and HE heard it! It damaged my trailer, broke off some metal and scared me to death. I was 2 feet away (airing the tire next to it) and sheer luck it exploded away from me. I inspected the other tires and they were all dry rotted. So, I removed them and will be getting new tires. The tires looked "OK" on the outside, but a detailed inspection was needed to see the dry rot. Just remember, ALWAYS be careful when airing up tires......I had heard they can do that, but this is the first time it has happened to me. If it would have hit me, it would of left a mark!

I've been lucky to never get seasick. However, if you do start to get seasick............get a rope, life jacket and jump overboard. Anyone ever been seasick swimming? never tried it, but it makes sense!

agreed ;D

I brought the boat back from camp........I'm tied up the next two weekends, but after that I'm taking you fishing bullets! sweet! just let me know!!! will you bait my hook for me? ;D ;D ;D As long as you supply the beer! ;D

If he gets his GED and goes to college, whats the big deal? If he gets 10 million and invests it smartly, at that age, he's set for life. What would concern me is dealing with all that the money brings..........drugs, women, fame, and all the evils that go along with it. I hope his Father has a plan for that!

Anyone know when the STJFL website will update to 2009?

just a shout out to the members of Lumberton Youth football for a great start to a fantastic football camp. It was well thought out and the kids are having a great time!!

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to establish what race a person is nor his/her parallel of interest. : : Anyone can join, its not based on race.

If I recall, when I applied for membership to this site, it didn't ask me what color I was. So, how could anyone justify asking what percentage of any race is on here. This is a clear case of bring up race just for the controversy.

I personally don't know what color anyones skin is.......wait, take that back, I believe Gabe is Mexican. Also, to be a moderator I think...(pretty sure)...almost positive, you have to obey the posted rules. Unfortunately, that leaves out the two guys that I know are black.........sorry Dove and Dick ;D

Meeeee tooooo.............I put my camp their 4 years ago.......

thanks......not as bad as I thought!

could you really consider him a celeb? In the fishing world..........YES

how much is an LA license these days

Finally a moderator feels safe enough to get in on the fun! ;D ;D

Did you actually say uuhhh type that?? :o I'm getting all choked up here Mr. V...I actually agree 100% with what you just typed. :'( So I'm going to get off the board...and go back to work with a good feeling in my heart. ;D Nice chatting with you guys. See you on the board my friend!

Dick, probably the most respectable, educated statement I have seen you post. I could not agree more. If the BPP was like you just mentioned I would support them. Heck, I might even listen to them.......but the way there are now, I don't even pay attention to their rants. If their goal is to communicate with white people, they should do exactly like you suggest.......otherwise, the military style is just pushing white people further from them.

Thats like a white person saying they are going to tear down Port Arthur because SOME black people have robbed white people. Makes no sense.

If they are American citizens, it is there war...maybe they just don't have a big enough sack to fight a REAL war. After all, they shoot back over there and use real bullets. They may get hurt. You GO YANKEEDAWG......glad to see your rolling up your sleeves and jumpin in!!!

Thats were your wrong......no one got the message. There was no message to relay. All they did was almost get a country fried butt whoopin. The cops were there to protect the black panthers not "the good ole boys" The guys that would have fought are used to bailing hay all day. Would have been a bad day for the panthers. NOTE: I am a peaceful person and glad no violence occured that day!

AND I said that I did not agree with THOSE type of actions....They feel that whites cannot be trusted, and I disagree with that..There are whites, blacks, jews, protestants, catholics, atheists, and so on that can't be trusted! I do however understand their FUNDAMENTAL purpose and its not to hate the white man....Its stop letting racists kick you around because we are not standing for that..Its just that simple. Exactly why does Quannel "XYZ to the A" have 6 or 7 guys dressed like G.I. Joe hanging with him if he's all about peace??

I agree, there are SOME racist in Lumberton......I never said the city was perfect. You know what, there are Racist everywhere. You can't take one example and let it taint the entire town. My friend was robbed by a couple of black kids at a gas station. (true story) Would it be fair to make the statement that all black kids are crimminals.......nope!

I grew up in Port Arthur and currently live in Lumberton. Here are the reasons why: 1. Low crime rate - Violent crime rate on a scale of 1 to 10 is a 2 and so is property crime. Beaumont is a 6. 2. Better school district Notice race had nothing to do with it! While we are on that subject, why do you think Beaumont is rated a 6 in violent crimes? Houston is also rated a 6 in violent crimes and a 7 in property crimes. Is it wrong to want to live in a place with a low crime rate and a good education????

I'm going to communicate like you on this one. LISTEN MAN.........NEVER SAID I LIKED THE KKK......NEVER MAN!!~!! LISTEN, PAY ATTENTION..........ARE YOU DUMB????? : Like I asked earlier, why was he there with a weapon?? What was his purpose?? You dont have to "like" the KKK to share their beliefs...You have not answered ONE of my questions about them either, which speaks volumes....So I am going to talk to you like this...DO YOU THINK THERE ARE ANY KLAN ON THIS SITE OR SONS/GRANDSONS OF KLAN ON HERE? Bet I still wont get a straight answer.... : :..I will wait....... : : 1. ...DO YOU THINK THERE ARE ANY KLAN ON THIS SITE ? NO, it's 2009 2. OR SONS/GRANDSONS OF KLAN ON HERE? Yes I do! That does not mean they share their same views.
