  1. If this dummy can move to TN, then our next governor can pardon him: http://youtu.be/H10BjdS8tms
  2. Bummer - best show in nashville I guess i'll stick with the TMCA shows - i just loathe the goodman show and location
  3. Please tell me you went to the hospital today! Those are likely stroke signs Stay well
  4. Asian markets love quality whiskeys. Since bourbon is a uniquely American product made exclusively in KY, i wouldn't lose any sleep over this.
  5. What is a grue?
  6. IMHO: Ammo will continuen to be in demand this year with highet than "normal" prices until at least the fall We've seen 223 drop down into the high 30s/low 40s per round last few months, so give it some time - the demand will taper and prices will adjust downwards
  7. [quote name="JohnC" post="1092082" timestamp="1389275995"]Also, I can hardly finish a full size cigar anymore, especially because my wife has asthma and I can't smoke anywhere near her. So when u buy a cigar now, I try to find small sizes in the tins. I've had these for a while. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro v2.2[/quote] Try the Arturo Fuente short story, which is a large ring size but only 3-4" long - full body flavor but only lasts 15 min or so
  8. I looked at geo but its soooo expensive even with the tax credit - the payback period was no different than just planning on buying new hvac in the future - and not worrying about replacing all the expensive pumps and stuff. Anyone with geo and a story to tell?
  9. You all realize that the tax stamp isnt much different in price than this floppy "arm bracr", right? For me - i'd get the stamp and have a decent stock

  11. It also doesn't have a bayo lug!
  12. "Though the shot was fired about 2:30pm, Palmer said Combs did not notify KSP until 4:25pm, nearly two hours later. "I don't know what happened there," Palmer said. "I'm not sure why it took so long to get the call."" Hmmm... Maybe the state rep wanted to get her story straight first? What a dope
  13. [quote name="DaveS" post="1091748" timestamp="1389223548"]No excuse, and his 2nd time at that? Dave[/quote] Nothing to see here....lol
  14. [quote name="Murgatroy" post="1091241" timestamp="1389140325"]That is a valid point, for the last five years or so it was over two million, then down a million this year... I wonder how valid those numbers are? I don't see know some of them jump all over the board.[/quote] KY runs monthly NICS checks on all CCW holders. Every single month. Artificially inflating their numbers
  15. So is a dual fuel unit worth the extra cost?
  16. What about a natural gas backup gennie?
  17. Always a little worrisome for .gov to legally be able to declare someone crazy. See Political Abuse of Psychiatry in the Soviet Union: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_abuse_of_psychiatry_in_the_Soviet_Union
  18. The judge was wrong when he said the governmeny had a responsibility to protect its citizens. The scotus has ruled the opposite. It would have been more accurate to say the government has a duty to not harm its own citizens, but protecting them in general is not anywhere in the constitution.
  19. I had eggnog french toast for breakfast - used the nog instead of milk - yum!
  20. The cost in running the gas line will quickly be recouped over the high cost of propane that you would use for logs/cooking I'm running @1000 feet of gas line to my building site. Its gonna be about 3-4k but i can then buy a gas generator and have standby power via gas for the house
  21. [quote name="Lester Weevils" post="1089920" timestamp="1388969596"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mII9NZ8MMVM[/quote] Great video - and sadly reinforces my strategy of having debt in this environment
  22. Yup - french toast for everyone tomorrow!
  23. +1 for the don hume 715 IWB. Have one and love it
  24. [quote name="gregintenn" post="1088999" timestamp="1388851156"]So if you guys woke up this morning with a free and clear deed to your house in your hand, you're telling me you'd take it down to the mortgage office and borrow all you can against it? Really??!!?[/quote] In this environment of ultra low interest rates, absolutely yes. Having that much of your money tied up in a single investment means your give up the opportunity cost of that money. For example - if you have 100k in the market in 2013, you would have earned 29% - 29k before taxes And paying home mortgage interest on that 100k would have cost you @4-5k before taxes. Clearly there is tremendous security in not having to worry about making a monthly payment, and i respect that decision. On the other hand if you feel comfortable in taking a mortgage and balancing that risk with potential rewards. Nothing in life is guaranteed of course and different folks will have greater/lesser risk tolerances. I will reitirate - in a period of government increasing the money supply by printing money, i beleive one of the best defenses is to take on debt. Inflation will make it cheaper in that you'll pay the debt back with inflated dollars. If inflation is a concern - then you win big in a perverse way.
  25. [quote name="gregintenn" post="1088812" timestamp="1388804157"]I'm with you till you get to the "leverage" part. How is having debt on a piece of investment real estate better than having cash invested in the same property?[/quote] Precisely because of the leverage You can take 50k invest it in your home (you have to live somewhere anyway) and have 250k house. You'd take a long long time to save up the money to buy it outright. Having a fully paid 250k house means you have 250k tied up in a very illiquid investment and subject to macro forces you cant control. by borrowing the 200k you preserve your free cash and can invest it spend it or save it - whatever floats your boat. Even if your home never gains any value, you're essentially living there for the cost of your interest as your rent. As to rental properties, i dont have the temperment to be a landlord, but having someone pay for your property seems like a good investment if you are good with people, find good tenants and are handy with repairs.
