IMO a safety rule is a safety rule and there's no margin for mulligans.  The DQ exists to remind you that you violated a rule that could have put other people at jeopardy, not to punish you.  The stage may have been designed incorrectly but the burden of safety still rests on the shooter.   Did they not allow you guys to do a walk-through of the stage before you shot it?  That should have shown that there was a problem, especially if more than one shooter was eventually DQ'd because of it.

So does anyone else see the point that this clown was trying to make?  Granted, he made it as awkwardly as humanly possible and all people heard was the word "terrorism" but it seems that what he was trying to say is that if you incite panic by spreading false claims of danger with the public water supply, you are in essence terrorizing the public. And he'd be right.   But the hubub it caused sure does make good press.

I don't know the particulars but this statement sucks...     Defending your home â‰ defending property.

I'm going to have to avoid buying a nice television if Hollywood is going to keep cranking out bullshit like this.  Sooner or later I'm going to throw something at mine.   That whole commercial is full of arrogant, elitist assholes who were mocked mercilessly in Team America.   [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZbJkZjobFo[/media]

Not a bad idea either.  I'll look into the enamel pins and see what those cost.

i noticed that also.  They're making pretty good refinements it seems as they work their way toward the end of the 3.x lifecycle.  Just in time to bork it all up again.  :)

I've just completed a software upgrade to the forum and ran some maintenance on the database.  Sorry for the downtime.

Any "law abiding" citizen that gets caught carrying without a permit quickly makes the transition to criminal status.  Keep that in mind.

I've looked at patches in the past and have not given up on them.  Like most things, it all boils down to time and money.  I'm really short on time lately.  Money is an issue we can work around.  I'll send out a few emails to some patch makers over the weekend and see what sort of replies I get back.   Joe @ Battle Mug told me about a guy he uses to make PVC patches and gave me a few samples.  I really like them a lot and that's probably the route I'd go.  Likely the same "TGO Icon" that we use for our stickers, like is in my avatar.

  Yeah we've got that same hardwire kit running a Passport in ours.  It does pretty good.  It even confirmed when the Mrs. got hit with the LADAR by Metro when she was doing 9 over.  Still can't believe the guy wrote a ticket for that.  I guess there weren't any stabbings, rapings, shootings, drug deals, thefts, home invasions, assaults, politicians casting votes, or murders and it was a slow day for them in Nashville.  :D

  Except Baptists don't generally cut the heads off of non-believers.

Can't have America being the hero these days.  :rolleyes:   Hollywood can suck my ass.

We average about 13.9 MPG around town and about 13.5 MPG on the highway. Sometimes it creeps up toward 15 MPG but not very often. That's with a light foot. Towing with it I saw about 13 MPG. It's never gone below that unless I was just behaving like a hoon. Yes, we've had ours off road but they aren't ideal for the sort of off-road environments we have around this part of the country. They need wide open spaces to stretch their legs and really show you what the suspension can do. It wasn't fun pressure washing this crap out of the undercarriage.

  Fair enough.  :D

  Well at least with the new Raptor you'll get stock HID headlights.  :)   Go for the new Terrain color... that's bad ass!  :D

  Honestly that's kind of a rude question, you know?  I never ask people about their finances.  :shrug:   Steve works pretty darn hard, I can tell you that much.

I came down with a massive headache and only caught bits and pieces of it last night.  Recorded the whole thing on DVR and hope to watch it tonight all the way through.

    Saying the M&P is a copy of the Glock shows very little technical understanding of the M&P's design.  The Sigma, yes.  The M&P, no.  And say what you want, but none of my M&Ps have ever failed me either and none of them throw brass in my face.  :)

Dude... think about all of the money in mods you lost on the last Raptor.  I'm done with trading vehicles on a whim.

We got it taken care of!  Turns out a fellow Jeep owner is also a plumber and he drove about 45 miles to come help me get it installed.  I'd still be out there debating whether I'd done it right and afraid to turn on the gas and strike a spark without his help.  :lol:   Hot showers are really underrated!!!

I'm working this weekend which makes it even more difficult. I'm not in the mood to cuss and throw things today and that's likely what will happen. Sent from the toilet using Tapatalk 2

I don't have the necessary tools to solder the copper lines or deal with the black iron gas line, but our water heater bit the dust today. It's easy to access in our garage and I'm picking up a replacement whirlpool today at lowes. I just need someone who knows their crap and has the tools to install it. Anyone?

I could seriously see myself buying one of these in the next few years.  The new Stingray is just all kinds of badass.

I'm looking forward to it.  Good series.
