Look before you piss.

People think you can't hunt hogs with a .223?

  Seems to be becoming its own religion, or even a substitute for it.

  Nice Bigfoot profile photo...   Perhaps this plane was never meant to be found.

Just got a notification because of this thread. I hate you all. :D Sent from somewhere in the cosmos using magic...and bacon.

Nukes are a bit of a skewed metric. Such a device that can cause the genecide of cities and even countries with something as trivial as a command show how petty the Governments that have invented/aquired/hold them are; and such a device should not exist. The idea that a ruling elite should have access and means of murder on such a massive scale is beyond words. Sent from somewhere in the cosmos using magic...and bacon.

[quote name="bersaguy" post="1154389" timestamp="1401668149"]I think it might be more than just a fiber optic service line issue but that is my opinion. I can see a fiber optic line messing with certain phone companies for a short repair time period but I think to date Sprint users are the only ones saying they have not had any issues YET!!!! Not paranoid but just wondering just how many phone services are being effected. I stopped having issues yesterday about mid day. [/quote] Believe it or not, most of the big carriers rent and contract usage with eachother. It is possible that if this is a sprint line that other companies are contracting usage with sprint, sprint is prioritizing service to their customers first. Prioritization is a rather common practice. Sent from somewhere in the cosmos using magic...and bacon.

[quote name="Batman" post="1154183" timestamp="1401597552"]Exactly why I WILL NOT be carrying an auto knife in my front pocket, lol[/quote] As long as it has a good lock it should be fine. Same with assisted. The only assisted knife that has ever opened on me was a cheap Kershaw. Then I had a Leek. The Leek's lock eventually broke. Been carrying a Benchmade Mini-Barrage for close to a year. Stopped using tha lock after an hour. First assisted-open that I've ever felt safe carrying unlocked.

I thought that was the NSAs job?

'A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.' -Amendment II, adopted 1791   3Arms   1  a :  a means (as a weapon) of offense or defense; especially :  firearm      b :  a combat branch (as of an army)      c :  an organized branch of national defense (as the navy)   (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/arm)   Posting this for anyone iffy on the specifics. People often assume that because the Second Amendment is the focal point of American Gun-Rights-Politics that the Amendment is exclusively referring to firearms.   I see a lot of anti-freedom Gun-Control people these days singing something to the tune of "Let people have all the firearms they want! The Second Amendment doesn't pertain to Ammo, so we need to ban Ammo!" This is nonsense. Also, the fact I see so many iterations of this fallacious talking-point propounds a question: What is leading people to such similar yet incorrect assumptions about the 2nd?

I put in a few just for laughs. Still don't know why. The poll isn't a research poll and being as open as it is, there is bound to be more multi-votes to skew the distribution one way or another. Ultimatly though, they may not air it if slants largely "no". The motive seems pretty obvious as a misdirection using recent events to put it in everyones face (countiong on an emotionally distressed majority of recent events) to show how the "mojority" believes in more gun control.   Just utter garbage. Excuse the ad hominem, but these polls as but one joist in the foundation of my lack of confidence in American-journalism today. I highly recommend interested parties read "The Image" by Daniel Boorstin for a birds eye glimpse of our manufactured-experience based existence for a little better understanding of where I'm coming from.

I originally went to college, concentrating in culinary arts...Cut myself quite often, and at least once down to the bone. Between that, fast food, and restoration work, I learned the easiest way to not hurt yourself is to not do anything that involves sharp objects or high tension/moving parts. Since this is generally impossible, make sure you have the toughest tools, sharpest knives, and a high threshold for pain in addition to iron stomach and good humor....because when something does happen, regardless of how careful you are, the only things left to do is laugh and learn.

Did a couple times. Don't know why....but I did... Sent from somewhere in the cosmos using magic...and bacon.

Just wait till the TGO pro tech group buy knives come in. Expect new pictures on the hour.

If I'm seeing the pic right...that is the best finger to effe up, because you can proudly show it to everyone and they won't know you are also flipping them off! :pleased:

I'm hungry.....is anyone else hungry?

APA is a horrid format..........
