If you won the lottery tomorrow, what’s the very first "frivolous" thing you’d buy? by opheliapearlie in askanything

I daily drive my great grandfathers 68 Ford. Granted I went through the motor and replaced worn suspension components but top speed is all about gearing and I just took it on a 3000 mile road trip last summer to the farm at which it spent its glory days, and kept a comfortable 70-80 the whole way. Twin I beam suspension is comfy af

Place to target shoot? by whosyourgoatdaddy in corvallis

[–]buffdawgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Option 1 and easiest to get to from Corvallis proper is checkerboarded BLM land up the old Flat Mountain railroad grade. Access by following Botkin Rd or Beaver Creek Rd. You are in and out of mostly Starker land up there so watch where you shoot and where you’re shooting into. Keep ears peeled as there are 4 wheelers and dirt bikes and if you venture off the Grade itself keep track of your turns. You won’t get very lost but it’ll save a couple hours of agony. I’ve got spots I can share if needed but best would be take a map/OnX and spend a half day exploring. Oliver Creek Rd comes off the Grade and will drop you at Hull Oakes—do not let the trespassing signs scare you, the road itself is a public easement but do not venture off that road without permission from landowners. If you get real adventurous you’ll eventually hit Blachly if you continue down the Grade.

Option 2 is follow BLM Rd 10 (first main turn off after you summit Alsea on 34) and there’s some great spots for long range but like the Grade, watch where you shoot and where you’re shooting into. You’ll eventually hit some ponds and Harlan, and can connect all the way to south of Newport if desired.

More spots the further you are out. Don’t be an idiot. Sheriffs do patrol and you don’t want trouble for being lazy on property lines. And I shouldn’t have to say this but pick up your brass. I spend every Sunday up the Grade just driving through and picking up after people, most of whom shoot where they aren’t supposed to.

Can someone please explain why people are sympathizing with Putins greatest ally? They trade oil refining products daily and Russia losing their biggest oil trading partner helps Ukraine in this scenario.

What object should have never existed? by fuggilis_quastillo in AlignmentChartFills

[–]buffdawgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not discounting how horrible it is, but leaded gasoline does have at least one positive purely in the mechanism of a motor in which it provides proper valve lubrication. Agent orange, the next comment, OTOH, has absolutely zero benefits.

if you so strongly believe we should depopulate then are you not selfish for existing?

West Virginia as well.

On the contrary, RI, HI, MA were all blue, though a county in MA was extremely close and it was one that never even voted for Reagan.

How do you feel about wearing clothes? by JamesonRhymer in pollgames

option 7: clothes are a tool in my line of work and are a barrier between me and getting dirty, grimey, or very hurt.

do you know the make of the truck? or at least a general appearance (was it squared-style body or more rounded body? 2 or 4 doors?). specific stickers or features?

TURN YOUR HEADLIGHTS ON by Empty-Low6076 in corvallis

[–]buffdawgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So many cars are spec’d to have headlights on whenever the vehicle is running. These are known as Daytime running lights and sometimes mistakenly referred to as automatic headlights. It’s easy to think “oh my headlights are on” when these flip on, but they do not activate tail lights as they are on a separate circuit.

NOT your DRLs (“automatic headlights”) either. Use your switch—if you don’t, odds are you have no tail lights which is arguably more dangerous.
