  1. If you end up with more than needed, please send my way. MY wife and I are leaders for Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts. Last couple of years produced a more needy families than the than past. Luckily there are still a lot of new boys entering scouting. My wife was a cub scout recruiter this year. I think she signed up 35+ new boys.

  2. Guys, Consumer leases are a rip. The lease agreements are tilted unfairly towards the lessor.

    Commercial leases have much softer language. Plus, leases favorably impact return on invested capital ratios.

    For your sister, hyundai sorrento has the best lease ratios.

  3. I added a new one to the group. Its a Tag Heuer Aquagraph:

    • Autolock turning bezel
    • Oversize chronograph minute hand
    • Screw-in crown security indicator
    • Water-resistance to 500 meters /1666 feet
    • TAG Heuer Caliber 60 automatic movement
    • Automatic helium valve

    Really need a winder now.

  4. I am an assistant scoutmaster. I would say that any Troop would love to have something like that. I just tool a dozen or so scouts to Shining Rock last week. several of the boys were on borrowed old gear.

  5. Past 125, it's always been kind of hard to tell just how much faster I'm going, but maybe that's just me.

    - OS

    25 years ago, I was stopped for going about 140-150 in a 55 in the desert. I was almost excited to get ticketed to see what the radar said. Instead, the officer issued a generic 120+ ticket for wasting fuel ($20). I could not get exact speed from the officer because "it's always been kind of hard to tell just how much faster than 120 speeders are going" and the "dept does not want to create a contest for setting top speed records".

  6. My mini-30 has been 100% reliable with factory and pro mags. Accuracy is pretty good. Better than and SKS or AK with factory sights. A scope gets it down to about 3-4" at 100 yards. Never had any issues with russian or chinese ammo. There is a lot of talk about mini-30s. Years ago, they were said to be barrell'd on a US spec 7.62 (.308 vs .311) instead of chinese (that was the main import then). Later came a talk about bent firing pins. I've fired a lot of chinese ammo (1k rounds) through mine, but never had any issues at all. I'm about out of chinese ammo, so we'll see how the russian stuff works out.

  7. i just pulled a variable Pentax Lightseeker and replaced it with a SS 10x42mm. The Pentax has better optics, but the build quality is very similar. My personal opinion is that the SS tubes and controls are much more durable than Nikon or Leupold. The Pentax tubes seem to be equivalent.
