oh also I used to get fake tans from tanning beds.... until I heard that it causes cancer... but my grandfather who golfed and fished alot but never one time in his life tanned in  a tanning bed developed skin cancer and died.... but for some reason his daughters  still used tanning bed.... see things happen for a reason... like the kid in Connecticut died from a bat bite... just his luck... like mine with me developing kidney stones... bats are bad as people from russia who snag steelhead!!!

Yepper I have them. I've had them for prob. the past 15 years without knowing
When I went to the Drs. a few wks. ago he asked if I had any ???'s on anything & I said what's this?
He said you got worms. Marty last week Timbo & I cut down a bunch of Hickory trees for my stair railings. They were covered with nuts. My grandmother died 2 weeks ago at the age of 101 & 3 months. She ate lots of herbs & garlic. Mybe garlic would work also??? Marty, you a witch Dr.???

Crappy

Hey Crappy
How could he tell U got worms?
Did he see little ones swimming in you?

PS: pecans are a hybrid form of hickory nut
Pronounced Pea-kon pee-cans are sumptin truck drivers use

What's nuts is rippinlip is lettin my buddy Timbo cut down a big cherry 10' from & leanin towards his house on the Slippery Rock Creek this weekend . I'm takin the camera for this one.

 No.
 
  Timbo works at the scales for a scrap yard. He drinks very heavy on the weekends. Saw prob. 20 bull elk in velvet on the way to the beer dist. with Timbo comin from Kevins on Sun. Wish I had the camera then.

  He drove a truck for them but lost his cdl do to too many duis. I have about 200 lbs. of copper to take in. #1 is $2.60 lb. & #2 $2.40. alm. wheels are bringin about $15 buckaroos. I bought a like/new alm. boat from his scrap yard for $70. I knew u worked there.

Was fishing the Yough with 71GTO tonight and the darn bats chased us off the water.  Must have been 20 or 30 of those little winged rats just dive bombing us.  Caught a heck of a bunch of fish though.  Caught Smallmouth, white bass, sauger and a couple of nice trout.  Good night on the water, nice fishing with you 71GTO.

There are battery operated rodent repelants that might work.
I know they work for mice and they also say for bats.

High frequency sound High frequency sound in the range of 4,000 to 18,000 cycles per second (cps) has been used successfully to repel bats from gymnasiums, large warehouses, and similar structures. Adjustable high frequency dog training whistles connected to cylinders of compressed air or large aquarium pumps and placed close to the bats’ roost have a repelling effect. High frequency sound is believed to interfere with the bat’s ability to navigate. These whistles might also make people in the area irritable and nervous.

If ya swat one out of the sky does that make it bait ? I bet one of those air gulping Skis would just chow one down.

anything with deet 100% or do as carpin said those tikis work well for bugs and give good ligthing. 

How did I know that eventually YOU would resort to explosives??

Darn right.  I was gonna carry my easy-to-carry shotguun with me and waste a few of the winged rats but my son told me bats are protected in this state.  I figured if they saw their kin droppin to the water in pieces they might get the idea and back off.  It would  have an additional benefit of chumming the water with bloody goodies which should bring the cats in to investigate.  I hope the fire crackers don't shut the fish off though.  Tonight we will see.

Hey 71GTO, saw you at Eureka around 2:20 today on my way back from Layton. You had a fish on.  I couldn't stop, wife had plans for me today.  Had to fix the weed whacker, cut some scrub and shovel a few stones.  Now that thats done I'm heading down for a Sunday night of fishing.  Only one small bass at Layton under the bridge this morning.  I should have saved the gas and stopped where you was.  I'm grabbing firecrackers for tonights batfest.  I'll let you know how they work.

Prices have changed a lot.
I was paying $0.35 to $0.40 for aluminum
Clean copper was $0.65 to $0.80
Cars were $3.00/100LB

Someone once brought in an aluminum smoke house.
It was homemade but very well done and about the size of a small refrigerator.
I hid it in the garage and brought a new hot plate in on monday morning and a couple chickens to smoke.
One of the morons on the night crew thought it was scrap and put it in the bailer.
I left one of the raw chickens in the back seat of his car and cooked the other on a grill.

A few hillbillies would come in every few weeks looking for parts to their still
The bowl from a huge hobart mixer made them a nice boil pot.
They were always wondering around the lot drinking shine and apple juice out of gatoraid bottles.
Deffinently a potent mix-I think I am still a little dizzy.
Smashup derby was a lot of fun and driving a T7 Terex over cars was also almost a thrill-too slow to be real wild!

Marty?Crappy,
Out of curiosity, how much are aluminum cans going for now?  I might have to quit giving my cans to the city.  I've noticed the last few times, someone else is grabbing them before the recylcling people get them.  Might as well get money back from my beer drinking...  Any idea of how much stainless steel is going for?  I'd imagine it would depend on the nickle content.  Any good site to check out?  Do most of the scrap yards around give about the same?  
Thanks,
PT

Forget all that Stuff, if you're fishin the Yough, beware of the bees.
 
Almost did me in Saturday. Yellow Jackets.
Nest was under a log right on the river bank.
 
Got stunk at least 20 times. Spent 8 hrs in the hospital.
Nothing to play with.
 

I was down near the mouth where it runs into the Mon.
