Random Thought Thread

I am not trying to answer for the Nathan, only offering what is easily obtained and works well. ALL free and clear and Arm & Hammer non scented detergents work well. Ivory soap. Also any archery shop or sporting goods place should have good scent neutralizer sprays to use on clothes and boots. Suede/rough out leather boots really hang on to scents. Don’t forget about washing your shower towel scent free as well prior to showering to head out. If hunting where there are cattle or horses- stepping in their poop is great cover up scent. Don’t fall for buying strong cover up scents that don’t match the area you are hunting.

I stopped using soap or deodorant that had scent (I have been unscented for decades now) and bought some laundry detergent that was unscented and I keep my hunting clothes away from anything with scent sealed in a plastic bag. I bought special scent reducing soap and shampoo for immediately before the hunt and when I walk into the woods I'm dressed from head to toe in camo and am as unscented as humanly possible.

I found that, with my scent effectively scrubbed off of me, I could sit out in the woods and birds and squirrels wouldn't even notice my presence.

These tend to be productive hunts.

I once (slowly and quietly) walked upon a deer standing in the trail and it looked right at me. I stood there frozen until it put it's head down and I very slowly raised my rifle and shot it. I probably wasn't 50 yards away and I was just standing in the open and it was looking right at me and it didn't see. They trust their nose and if there is nothing to smell they assume there is nothing to fear.

If you're quiet, wearing good camo, and are scent free, I don't think the foxes would notice you and alert. The squirrels never do. I've had birds land near me and never notice me.

I went in the woods once, took my time getting to where my stand was and paused at the base before climbing. Within 30 seconds a 8 point buck stepped out of the brush not 10 yards away looked right at me and proceeded to eat some acorns on the ground. I shouldered my rifle and he paused briefly. I waited for him to resume eating and took my shot. Never had that happen before or after.
 
I just found a Batman comic from 1987.

A guy kills two guards while he busts out of Arkham assylum. Proceeds to RUN ON FOOT to Wayne Manor, break into the Bat Cave, steal a Batman outfit AAAAAAAAAAND THE BATMOBILE. He believes hes Batman I guess.

Batman finds him kicking some mob boss's keester and proceeds to kick FAKE BATMANS butt.

closing line of the book
''Let's get YOU some help, Tommy''.





My question is what kind of super hero crime fighter allows that to happen? He was replaced, SUCCESSFULLY, by a mental patient.

It's DC, so they've always been a little lame...

Green Lantern was weak to yellow. The earlier Green Lantern was weak to wood. So any grade school kid* could have kicked their ass.

*Not Gen Z since they don't probably don't know how to use a pencil or know cursive.

I also found a FLASH book. In it, FLASH is working for the IRS. He is tasked with collecting on an account that happens to be owned by a demon of some sort.

The FLASH fights through its minions only to find out that the demon is taking in a fortune by fixing the stock market. 🤨🤔

THEN after realizing that the FLASH is just TOO FAST for him, he gives up his bank book and says ''Take what you want''

oh boy. I'm glad these are going to a good home.

What else can I sell?
 
I was a marvel kid

And followed artist more than characters.. McFarland, Jim Lee , Joe quesada etc

I have a lot of cool stuff from my youth , grendel , lone wolf and cub , all the first image comics (spawn ,wildcats etc) first appearance of Deadpool , Deadpool series....


I know what I'll end up selling them for ;)

I worked at a comic book store during the 90's, so I have a lot of books from that era. Almost all Marvel, but a lot of independents and some DC. Total of 6 long boxes of books. I haven't been through it in years other than to pull out a book here and there for appraisal, like Carnage 1st appearance. The only book that I wish I had from that time period that I missed was Harley Quinn's 1st appearance.
 
Awesome I need to grab my old boxes and see what all I have worth grading!

I believe I have a box of old x- men cards drawn by Jim Lee and maybe even sports cards drawn by him

Also think I have the first McFarlane drawn Spiderman

Might need some advice on what to get graded toker toker

Think I have a couple still sealed death of superman
