  1. Nope, no problem. Had several shopping carts full (internet) the night of the "election", hit the [i]BUY[/i] buttons as soon as it was called for Knucklehead. Received 8 cases in the past 12 days. Ohhhhhh.... you mean lately... Yeah, good luck with that. Several places I talked to are declaring back-orders all the way to August 2013. It's going to get VERY tight, VERY soon. Was at gun show in Hendersonville last weekend, bought four cases there. Surprisingly no one was seriously overpricing yet. I was next to several guys who were looking at ammo and wimpering that a case was $20 or so cheaper a few weeks ago. I was like, "buy it now for this decent price, or in 6 mos. you can tell all your friends what you [i]could-have[/i] gotten it for 6 mos. ago." It ain't gonna get any better for a longgggg time folks. If you see a deal, buy it right then. Several buddies keep calling me and telling me that so-and-so had such-and-such for $X yesretday, but now it's out of stock. My question to them was, why didn't you buy it yesterday when you saw it? (where is spell check on this thing?!?!?! - arrrggghhh)
  2. [quote name='HvyMtl' timestamp='1353527519' post='849202'] @mcurrier, If you are going bankrupt, and are "putting salaries back to original salary" for some of your workers, while asking others to deeply cut their salaries? Is that fair? [/quote] Typically, it is 'management', owners, stockholders that take the cuts while trying to save a company, all of which are non-union. It is rarely the "employees/worker" (union members) that take [u]any cut[/u] at all while the company is floundering. This may have been a move to let the non-union workers go out with something in their pockets before the inevitable happened. I have owned quite a few businesses myself. Whenever our companies fell on hard economic times, it was always myself and other investors who took the pay cuts so that we would not have to lay off workers. I have run a few businesses for 2-3 years without taking a dime for myself, living strictly off of savings. I have known many others who have done the same, trying to save the company/business. I don't know the specifics of the Hostess situation, no one does as it has not been reported in detail. All I'm saying is that could possibly be the case. We don't know without more details.
  3. [quote name='RobertNashville' timestamp='1353519105' post='849169'] You would have to find some aliens with some incredibly low standards. I can believe in aliens but I don't think I can believe in aliens smart enough to build interstellar ships but dumb enough to take the likes of Reid and Pelosi. [/quote] Farrakhan is waiting for his space ship to come back, maybe he'll take the rest of the dingbats with him.
  4. [quote name='OhShoot' timestamp='1353516123' post='849146'] The reference keeps coming up simply because the ObamaPhone, ain't. - OS [/quote] But the perception to the lady in the video is that [u]it is[/u]. And these days, as we have found out post-election, truth falls by the wayside, but perception is EVERYTHING!

Not even getting into the topic of the post, but just fyi, snopes is not the most dependable source check on truth.
  10. [quote name='HvyMtl' timestamp='1353444311' post='848855'] Same problem I had with those Wall Street groups that gave out huge bonuses, paid for with taxpayer money. [/quote] I don't disagree with you there. [quote name='HvyMtl' timestamp='1353444311' post='848855'] You do not give out pay raises when the company is going belly up. [/quote] Putting people [i]back[/i] to their original salary in my hypothesized example, would not qualify as a pay raise. Neither of us know the details of that until someone reports more information on exactly what occurred.

  12. [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]"It also emerged that some members of the management had received 80% pay rises at the same time."[/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]Maybe some members of management received 80% pay increases because they took pay cuts earlier to keep the company going? It doesn't give specifics. It could happen. My wife took a 'temporary' pay cut of 10% at her job that lasted over two years (and was still in effect) so she finally decided to find another job.[/font][/color]

  18. So Morsi is going to visit and show support for Hamas and 'palestine'. WTF? Egypt has a peace treaty with Israel. So much for that. Not to mention that the U.S. gives Egypt $1.5 Billion each year in 'aid'. I say they can suck it without our $1.5 Billion. Check out this whacko headline - [b] Thousands rally in Egypt against Israel offensive[/b] [url="http://news.yahoo.com/thousands-rally-egypt-against-israel-offensive-131030199.html"]http://news.yahoo.co...-131030199.html[/url] Israel 'offensive' ?!?!?! Last I heard, when someone shoots at you and you shoot back, that's called "defensive".
  19. Interesting video, I had not seen that one. I have postulated for nearly half a century that UFO's made use of the earth's magnetic field for propulsion. That video just brought back to my memory my thought of their use of currents somehow to navigate the atmosphere using high powered magnetic fields by inducing and braking the field with various metals. Sounds feasible, doesn't it? Only problem is, I don't really believe in UFO's, but if I did, that is how they would work.
  20. [quote name='Lester Weevils' timestamp='1353097465' post='846770'] Hi mccurrier Nope, just ain't got done replying to everybody. Trying to avoid writing individual messages so long that people don't havve enough patience to read them. Thanks, wouldn't have ever thought of that. Never had interest in collectibles like rare pennies or ancient gold coins. Googled and discovered that they have 2 big coin shows per year at Camp Jordan in chatt, looks kinda like gun or knife shows except for coins. Whooda thunk? Found some chatt guy posted a report on one of the recent camp jordan shows. He said that there was quite a bit of bullion at fairly low markup. Wonder if the gun show custom of "walking around with a gun" until a passer-by buys it-- Wonder if they have the same custom at coin shows? Some guy walks around with a hundred ounce silver ingot till somebody buys it off him? Or maybe coin shows are more "stuffy". Next show is march, might go take a look-see. [/quote] Just kidding dude. Bad joke, sorry. Humor doesn't always come across well on the internet.
  21. The rest of us are scum.
  22. Wow! We just got a big "Thank You" from Iraq. Or was it a "blank You"? I am [u]not[/u] surprised. Spill American blood to save their asses and this is the thanks you get. Anyone want to spew that old talking point that it was "all about oil"?

  23. We're getting close folks. Israel ain't gonna sit around taking this crap for much longer. They have virtually zero allies. They gotta take care of their own, no one is running over there to help them, militarily or with their words. Add to that the UN attacking them every time they try and defend themselves. Then you've got Hamas putting their missile launching sites right next to a mosque and a school just in case the Israelis fire back. [b] PHOTO: Hamas missile launch pad next to mosque, playground.

  25. You need to get a rare earth magnet for checking the integrity of silver coins. A friend of mine got burned on some counterfit silver coins last week because he forgot to take his rare earth magnet with him. He had a regular magnet with him which spotted one coin right off, and he had his scale (weightwas correct), but he got greedy and didn't pay attention to the red flags. Google "rare earth magnet check silver coins" and check out the first three links (my tablet won't let me paste the links here for some reason). This is one of the best tests I know for checking silver coins.
