  1. Enjoyed the show, grabbed everything I was looking for. Enjoyed talking with Musicman and W0lfattack.
  2. I'm heading that way. Wearing a gray 5.11 Tactical gnome shirt and gray/orange TN hat. Maybe can meet a few more of you today.
  3. Hope their service stays good, their deal with Red Jacket could end up requiring a lot of customer service (if the RJ quality remains on level with some of their previous ventures I have read about).
  4. PTAC has mixed reviews. I am satisfied with my PTAC 1:9 upper, but I also realized going in that it was a budget build and was not going to be super accurate. Add a complete lower for another $150 and have a good plinker.
  5. I am looking forward to seeing this one. Always been a Godzilla fan, watched most if not all of them.
  6. I considered getting my Security+ a couple years ago, I studied but never took the exam.   I just passed my VCP-DCV exam this morning, and think I will be hitting a couple MS certs next (have a free voucher for the Hyper-V and System Center exam). Will probably go ahead and update my Xendesktop cert to XD7 soon.
  7. What is your experience around? Desktop support/OS support role, servers, networking, virtualization? When you say you have taught yourself what you needed to know, that implies to me just basic hardware/OS/software support and so a base level certification would be a good entry point - help verify what you know and fill in any gaps of knowledge. The A+ exam is going to cover hardware, networking and OS troubleshooting/repair on more of a generic scale. The MTA will be dedicated to Windows OS install, config and troubleshooting. There will be some overlap between the two, and my opinion is it will be a toss up on which would be better appreciated - any IT team considering a candidate with one of these exams will know it is an entry level certificate. Since you will be paying out of pocket, I see no issue with the MTA.
  8. It is the only good show in the middle TN area anymore. Nashville is a joke, Hendersonville is done, and the smaller towns just don't attract vendors.
  9. A+ is a very basic cert but was very important in obtaining a couple of employment opportunities (little experience at the time). I took the exams in high school, part of an IT class. It was very simple, I actually beat my instructors score. This was 8 years ago and we used the Comptia study material. I still have that stuff in digital format, but a lot has changed since then. I have A+, Network+, Citrix XenDesktop, and tomorrow morning taking my VMware VCP exam finally (5+ years experience but no cert yet). I also have a few different certificate of completions for classes I have taken, and even they can be beneficial at times.
  10. I know its not right, but I still laughed. Now you know who she loves most... That would be a terrible situation. And not one I would allow myself to get into, would be trying something.
  11. I bet someone would be willing to analyze/inspect it for you. Not worth paying for but maybe some place would do it for free (manufacturer likely would but since unsure on who that is...) I wouldn't just trash it.
  12. Yeah it is kind of strange. Internet phone call, thinking Skype or something similar - it will be traced but maybe not as simple as a typical phone call?
  13. Absolutely hilarious, yet complete stupidity on the caller and the responding departments.   http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/teen-sends-cops-home-foe-beat-call-duty-article-1.1765656       A sore loser sent a SWAT team storming to a Long Island home Tuesday as revenge against his teenage video game rival, officials said. About 3 p.m., the caller said his foe had killed his brother and mother, but cops arriving at the Long Beach address found his 17-year-old video game opponent playing “Call of Duty” in his own home, CBS 2 reported. The hoax – involving more than 70 emergency responders – appears to have been an instance of a careless “game” called Swatting.
  14.   Usually (always?) a big banner saying Reloading Supplies.
  15. What brand is this BCG? Sorry if I missed that while reading through. I wonder if the manufacturer would inspect it for you? Tell them what is happening, that you wonder if the carrier is out of tolerance but you can't tell how/where.
  16. Come south, Ethridge/Summertown area. I do not know any specifically that deal in furniture, but I have seen chairs and stuff at a few of the places. There are a few stores, plus can drive the back roads and stop in at some of the home shops. There are a couple of lumber mills and some leather workers I have dealt with before. https://www.google.com/maps/search/amish+summertown+tn/@35.3863599,-87.3182121,12z/data=!4m5!2m4!3m3!1samish!2sSummertown,+TN!3s0x886339463dea98fb:0xb32a85d55ad35b8f
  17. I usually grab a few items and leave. But I plan on grabbing what I need first and then take a couple hours to walk around and look at stuff.
  18. I am going to see if I can find a H2 buffer, and a FDE PMAG (actually have a new in wrapper black PMAG I want to try and trade). If the guy with the huge pile of ammo cans is there, I may grab a couple more (had great prices last time) and fill them with some reloading supplies.
  19. Murfreesboro, TN Mid TN Expo Ctr 1209 Park Ave Sat 9-5, Sun 9-4 $1 off coupon http://www.rkshows.com/coupon.htmn. I plan on going Saturday morning, waste a few hours and maybe pick up a few items.
  20. I have Ameriglos on my Ruger SR40c. They work well for me, and were pretty inexpensive compared to some of the other options (at the time, not sure current prices).
  21. Kind of a lame giveaway. Colt has enough money they could give away a rifle or 1911. But, I still wouldn't complain about a new rifle case!
  22. Following... I'm interested too.
  23. Complaints/suggestions from my experiences. Don't charge for parking. $10 entrance fee is too steep. Too small of a venue makes it difficult to get around and look. It is a "gun show" for a reason. Several in the area only seem to be about 50% firearm related. I know a paying vendor is money to the sponsor, but really wish they would screen vendors and make sure it would be a worthwhile table.
  24. They take it down? Only Eley ammo on their site is the 50 round box for $9.99
  25. Classic rock is about all I listen to. But I will listen to some country and even some rap at times.
