Typical GSer, that's the interior side of the green door.

Unless a GSer installed that lock.........

I prefer to have tires mounted, a vacuum pulled, then inflate the tires with helium. It makes the vehicle a lot lighter; it almost floats on the road.

Us northerners fill ours with "heavy" air in winter. Needed for added traction.

....that's some funny stuff Hambones........ anyway the Green Door has those locks like in a motel where you slide in your card and then the Green light goes on and you are in like Flynn......... The GS'ers have those cards for rent up in the Green Door Kiosk in the main entryway......

Been looking forward to this Weekend..... the Nebraska BigFoot convention is taking place over in Hastings.......a couple thousand folks will descend into the village and see home movies of Bigfoot sitings and buy Bigfoot T-Shirts and eat way to many Sasquatch Burgers..... its sponsored by that beef jerky bunch and their Messing with Sasquatch commercials..... that is a real Sasquatch from Nebraska I am told..... a strange mix of folks in attendance.....kinda like a People of Wal-Mart gone bad...... which I will fit right in...... surely there will be some basers in attendance.....

Speaking of basers I saw one over by Des Moines yesterday driving his car and it was 15 degrees out........hope his tires are ok......pretty sure he had snow tires on.......

Does anyone remember studded snow tires......now those things worked......so of course they banned them....

So why do we need the FBI anyway........ they were warned twice about that monster......guess they were to busy........

Newt Gingrich had an interesting idea.....train teachers in how to use a firearm and have them conceal carry on the job and then react to situations like this...... only teachers who volunteer for the duty but every school would have several. There is no way to have cops standing by at every school and even if they are they probably won't be in the right place at the right time like in the Florida shooting....... makes sense to me........

Ok time for my morning nap.......lock and load today Hammers...... attack plan Delta......let's do this.......

I heard H1 has helium-filled tires on his big rigs...hasn't had an overweight ticket in years.
