  1. I live between you and the guy you met at the tire shop, glad I have off street parking. It could have been worse, a few weeks ago I saw a car at the corner of New York and Outer up on blocks with all four wheels gone. Sorry this happened to you.
  2. Illusions and Delusion in the Elderly
  3. Thanks for the information guys!
  4. Great news! It really made my day. When you said they got past two locks were those just slide locks? It may be time for some keyed locks too.
  5. About a month ago my mom found out that a long time employee/friend has been embezzling money from her for years. Now my mom is worried that since this person had her SSN# and all of her other personal information that they may try to steal her identity. Do any of you have any experience/advice on a way that she can protect or monitor her identity? Thanks.
  6. Soon after my son was born (he's 5 now) my brother gave my mom a puppy to keep her comany around the house. My son became very attached to this little dog... well, we all did. This past summer we were in Brazil and I got an email from my brother saying that Sophie (my moms dog) had been hit by a car and killed. We weren't going to be back home for another month so I had a lot of time to think about how I was going to break the news to him, I was really dreading having that conversation. The more I thought about it the more I felt that I should just tell him the truth about what happened. When we got home to TN I sat him down and told him about Sophie, he teared up and cried for a few minutes, but took the news really well. So, for me honesty worked out pretty good, but every child is different and you know your little girl best. I hope you guys get your dog back.
  7. I understood you were joking, but there's a bit of truth in your joke.
  8. People overcomplicate things. I'm sure every rule has someones name attached to it.
  9. Would that be considered one of Obamas "Shovel Ready Jobs?"
  10. I wish someone would translate what he's saying.
  11. The wording in that law really stinks. A punch to my face may leave me with a black eye or it may leave me with ( © (D) or (E).
  12. http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/general-off-topic/66327-blackwater-xe-now-academi-no-more-prince.html
  13. Maybe he just guessed. Edit: Process of elimination. The sight of it scared him so he knew it wasn't a little 9mm. He didn't drop dead from just having it pointed at him so he knew it wasn't a .45. .40 was all that was left.
  14. You make a lot of assumptions in this post. No where does it say he approached their car. It does say... "He said the men jumped out of their car near the traffic light. He did the same." If I was in a car that was blocked in (The report does not mention the situation of Esteps vehicle) and had two guys exiting a vehicle and coming at me I would get out and face them as well. I'm not going to sit there and give them an advantage over me by trapping myself in my vehicle. Some may say that this would only escalate the situation, but I believe that the officers forced the situation by exiting first. Why is it assumed? "I didn't let them cut me off." "I've been sucker-punched before," Is it because of those two statements? I've not let people out of a parking lot before does that make me a bad tempered person looking for trouble? There are two times in my life that I can think of right off hand where I was almost sucker punched. Does that mean I have fought people on the side of the road or in public? Mr. Estep didn't choose his words very wisely during his interview with the reporter and it has skewed the view of many people. I believe Mr. Estep would be viewed in a different light if this had been the first report everyone had seen. Off-duty Oak Ridge officers accused of threatening man - Oak Ridge, TN - The Oak Ridger
  15. I have a feeling this is going to get buried and we'll never hear about it again. I'm a little pissed because if it had been Joe Citizen who had acted in the same manner as these two officers he would have been chased down and placed in custody...Quickly. Here's how I see it. If it happened like Estep said the officers should be in jail. If the officers had reason to draw their weapons Estep should be in jail. Is there anyone in jail? No.
  16. I think Glocks are what he gives you if you've been naughty. If you think about it Glocks and lumps of coal have a lot in common... They're both black, ugly, block like, ugly, despised by many even though they are boringly reliable, ugly....
  17. If the plane were crashing into one of the buildings and there was smoke coming from the other one, but there's not. Just a plane and some buildings.
  18. Well, they're all self serving idiots if you ask me.Anyway, Santa ain't gonna bring y'all any junkie ol' Sigs. He's a Glock fan.
  19. Santa says be careful what you ask for.
  20. I've lived in OR for a very long time and have had more interactions with the ORPD than I can count on all of my hands, toes and... well, more than 21 times. I'll have to admit of all of those times only once was it unprofessional and that was when I was in High school. I'm really interested to hear the other side of this story and if there is any surveillance footage. So far it doesn't look good for the officers involved.
  21. "Glocks are ugly..." who cares. "Glocks have the wrong grip angle..." That depends on what you're used to. "Glocks aren't very accurate..." They are more accurate than 99% of the people who own them. "Glock triggers suck..." Parts can be changed and proper trigger techniques can be learned. I understand what you are trying to do Caster. All I own are ARs and Glocks. Buy a 19, get a after market barrel and put a lot of lead through it. If you don't like it at first give it some time and you will. I bought six of the cheap ($7) Korean mags a while back and have used them exclusively (at range/competition) trying to see if they would cause any malfunctions.... 2500 rounds and zero malfunctions so far.
  22. Of the colors you listed, either OD or Brown. If you're gonna wear ACU you might as well go with jeans and a t-shirt.
  23. My son and I just got done writing a letter to Santa Claus.
