  1. I would like to see pictures of the IED. Now anything has the potential to be an IED but not everything that looks like an IED is an IED. Good to take precautions because all it takes is one IED and we will loose a few more freedoms for the sake of security.

  3. It's a great idea, even if it doesn't necessarily maximize the space available in a safe.   That said, I don't see anything spectacular about the safe itself.  Their angle seems to be marketing the rotating rack.  I bet with a lazy susan base from Lowe's, a jigsaw and a sheet pieces of 1/2 plywood, you could make something similar and save yourself a couple thousand dollars.

  4. It's normal for a health care provider to ask that at the beginning of the conversation. If you have a carrier they don't accept, then getting all your personal information and finding out what you need done is a waste of everyone's time, unless you happen to be able to pay 100% out of pocket which is unusual these days. I'd be more upset if they took the time to get my information, get the referring doctor's information, find out a good time for me to come in, then tell me "oh, sorry. we don't take XYZ insurance."   As for the location, you do know that some people live and work in different places, right? Depending on the time of day, an office near my work may be more convenient for me than an office near my home.

  6.     When I was a lad we had a Mustang that required a minimum of two people to operate. Whoever road shotgun operated the 'throttle wrench.' As the throttle cable had broken, we tied a wire off to a wrench and attached it to the carburetor. It was a very valuable lesson in communication.   "Upshift, now!"   *reduce throttle*   "Done!"   *increase throttle*     Now of course, the lights were a completely different matter, and in order to activate the rear brake lights, you needed a second person the the back seats to touch the bare wires together.   This would lead to a three man synchronization that to this day I haven't seen matched without years of training.   "Downshifting!"   *reduce throttle*   "Braking!"   *sparking wires from the backseat*   "Complete stop!"   *release throttle"   *constant sparking*   "Taking off!"   *increase throttle greatly*   *no sparking*       The car was a death trap. You had to start it from popping off the solenoid, and the rag bushing in the steering column was gone, which meant you had 45* of dead air from side to side before reaction, the floorboards didn't exist, but the road signs kept you from stepping through, most of the time.                     Now, looking back as a mostly responsible adult, I am appalled at my actions, but at the time, just an old redneck kid deep in the woods, it was the time of my life. I had a car, and I was free.

  7. Not going to be a very long series. How long can some Californians last against zombies without firearms? Or worse yet, how are they able to kill zombies when the guns are all locked up in their storage containers.

  9. So after trip to eye doctor about new glasses last week he wanted me to go to Loden Vision Center for a cataract evaluation exam. I called Yesterday and when the woman answered to the phone she said May I help you and I said my eye doctor said I needed to call you and get an appointment for Cataract exam. The next words out of your mouth was who is your insurance carriers?????? Didn't even ask for my name first. I fired back and said don't you even want to know my name or is the money more important than patient care at Loden???? He tone changed really fast and she began taking down all my information and then finally got around to my insurance carriers. I told her I wanted an afternoon appointment. Now I called the Gallatin Location Of Lodens and she says which office do you want to go to and named of 3 that would require a 30 + minute drive and I asked he if I had called the Gallatin Location and she said yes and I said does my address not say Gallatin Tennessee and she said yes and I said if I live in Gallatin and your office is located in Gallatin why would I want an appointment in downtown Nashville? A long pause on the phone and she said they had appointment for 1:45 of September 2nd and I said I will take it and I thanked her. I sincerely hope that their doctors are much more intelligent than she is............... :stunned:

  10.   To be fair, seems the public wasn't permitted in there for this one, not even sure who the few people on the audience were. Would have to see the demographic about TV viewership though ...   While I agree is was a relative "non-event", I think Carly "won" it, so I do look for her star to rise as some of the "a team" falter. She might wind up being veep pick or something, who knows.   - OS

  14.   She's in the prelim bout, starts in an hour.   If she can pull off being the biggest fish in the smaller pond, might be better than having been in the feature event in the first place.   I must say I've been quite impressed with her every time I've heard her responses to questions. Her take on ISIS and other Mideast issues on Morning Joe yesterday was amazing with its detailed knowledge of the various countries involved, much different from the usual "just hammer them" responses.   - OS

  22. I'm extremely disappointed in Fox News after tonight's debate... 1.) It was a circus and unorganized. 2.) They picked fights between candidates and tried to make Jeb Bush look like a knight in shining armor. 3.) They made it a point to try and bury Trump early "literally the first question" and never looked back after that. Fair and unbiased my ass...

  23. I post this with great fear and trepidation as an interesting view I haven't seen before. I don't agree with everything said and there are some areas in the article where I feel like a little pandering of gun owners is going on. BUT, it's something I haven't seen explored yet so I'll offer it on that basis. There may be something to it, or there may not be.

  26. This thread makes me feel a lot better about the sea foam green '71 Dodge Coronet I drove in high school in the late '80s. My friends called it the big green booger...and that was fair.   It had a white fender and a dark green door (from a '72 Plymouth Satellite, IIRC) on the passenger side. I rigged up a toggle switch mounted on the dash that had to be flicked on/off when starting/stopping to bypass a bad solenoid relay. Third and reverse gears were bad in the transmission, so I had to back up with my left foot out the driver door. And the previous owner tried to peel off the white vinyl top leaving an attractive collage of exposed glue, ragged bits of vinyl, and rust.   All-in-all, I guess I'm saying I loved that car. It represented freedom and independance I only paid $375 for it and learned everything I know about cars by working on it.

  29. I don't have a P94 but I do have a P95 and I think they are pretty similar, right?.  In fact, I own two P95s and that is the only make/model of gun of which I own two (they are a little different - one is newer, has a short 'rail' for a light under the muzzle and has a safety decocker while the other is a little older, is decocker only and has no rail.).  I also recently bought my first 1911.  1911s are fun but myself, - for a defensive pistol - if I had to choose I'd take one of the P95s over a 1911 any day of the week and twice on Sunday.  I just don't believe there is that much difference on the receiving end between modern tech 9mm JHPs and .45acp JHPs.  I am largely a 'revolver guy' so from my perspective one of the main things a semi has going for it is higher capacity - which with a 1911 really isn't that much higher than one of my six shooters.  The 15+1 in the P95 (and, unless I am mistaken, the 9mm version of the P94) is significantly higher.  Further, I personally prefer DA/SA over 'cocked and locked'.  Of course, I have also owned the P95s longer and am more familiar with them.

  30. My mom had a Mustang II. She loved that car. It would always start right up, barely turning over. At least it did until the day she went to trade it in. Then she couldn't get it to start to save her life. :D I've seen TP filters for oil, but this is the first time I've seen a TP air filter.

  32. I have a Midwest Industries rail I used on my last build.  I don't remember the length, but I have been very happy with it.  I think it may be only a 12" rail.  I had read some reviews that the were not as sold as some of the other options, but mine has no play or give to it.  When the time comes for another build, I will probably buy another MI.  It may not be the last, greatest, whizbang thing out there.  However, the price is reasonable, and it gets it done.

  33. Yes, that would be nice. But in a pinch...I could settle for a 68 or 70.   But would have to have the 440 and a pistol-grip shifter!

  44. Certainly you can be charged. That’s why they call it an “opinion”. The AG doesn’t make law; he is interpreting what he thinks the law is. A Judge is not bound by his opinion and could disagree. If you decide to “test” a law you should talk with the attorney that will be representing you in your case.
