[quote name='TMF' timestamp='1352826801' post='844853'] Certainly the perception is the same here in regard to minorities. I'm from the land of trailer parks and Florida. I know just how worthless and teet sucking white people can be. [/quote] I don't think one can really understand this until you've been to white cracker Florida. It takes it to a whole different level.

Good luck!

An interesting article this morning coming out of Philadelphia concerning 59 voting districts where Romney got zero votes. That's right. Obama "carried" these districts 19,605 votes to 0. Really? I'm willing to stretch a long way, but I don't buy that you can have nearly 20,000 voters without a single contrarian vote.

Note, that this trick is more difficult with bigger ties, but I felt compelled to share this with you on a Monday morning: [url="http://youtu.be/HfmOD5jImOs"]http://youtu.be/HfmOD5jImOs[/url]

That barrel can be threaded, but you would likely be able to find a threaded 0.920" barrel for the same money or less than having it threaded. There are plenty of suppressors out there that are the same diameter.

They've been carrying the genetically modified, hothouse grown variety for some time. I'd even go so far as to say their customers prefer them over the organic versions.

[quote name='maroonandwhite' timestamp='1352498618' post='842708'] I'm sure if they try to subpoena him it will be shot down somehow. [/quote]i just hope he doesn't go the way of Ron Brown. As an intelligence operative, having an affair is a very touchy thing, as the threat of blackmail is very real. Funny thing is, that regardless of how long the administration knew or if this was a political card that was played, now that it's out, it's done. You can't hold it over his head anymore. I hope he gets his chance to tell his side of the story.

There does seem to be a lot of work in the Middle Tennessee area for good tech people. I have recruiters calling me weekly. There are a couple of LinkedIn groups that I'm a part of that seem to have daily postings. Shoot me a note if you're interested, and I'll happily provide any info I have.

[quote name='stick1' timestamp='1352392719' post='841820'] Lets hope that civil war can evolve from this election, Greece ,France ,Ireland many European nations have had violent unrest over similar things. Let hope we can do it right. [/quote]I'm not sure how I missed this, but I sincerely hope that no one here truly believes garbage like this. For those who might be so inclined, you need to get out from behind your computer and see the real world as it really is. I'd offer to buy you a ticket to any of several countries in the world that are being ravaged by civil violence right now so that you can experience that for yourself. Then, after you've spent time with someone whose wife and children were killed because they believe something different, come back here and tell us that you think "revolution" is the answer. We're bigger than that. We've proven that. That's all I'm going to say here. To the above poster, I hope you've enjoyed your time here. You're done.

M&P 15-22 is hands down the best .22LR AR off-the-shelf variant out there today. I've got a Tactical Solutions dedicated upper that I love, but built that before the M&P came out. There are some benefits to an upper on a standard lower, but the M&P is a great dedicated .22.

I'd be willing to be bet that the Israelis sure are interested in this event. Despite the President's posturing in the debate, they've got no friend in Washington and few options left.

I'd take a Big Green Egg turkey over a fryer turkey any day of the week!

[quote name='mikegideon' timestamp='1352315214' post='841201'] I've lived there twice. The subject comes up. I'm betting it has reached a dull roar about now. [/quote] This morning, Davy Crockett's famous line of "Y'all can go to hell, I'm going to Texas." was going through my mind. But then, I thought back to my two years spent in Houston. You can't find a pork sandwich down there to save your life.

[quote name='mikegideon' timestamp='1352310032' post='841092'] The party didn't have to change their beliefs or positions. All they had to do was STFU. [/quote] It seems the GOP has started taking pages from the liberal playbook of old. Someone should tell them that you don't have to swing at every pitch.

Nice! Excited to see it come together.

I'm jealous of your shooting range.

That's great!

[quote name='JAB' timestamp='1352241907' post='840368'] I have to honestly say that I don't see what the big deal is about a deep fried turkey. I've had them and they weren't all that, as far as I am concerned. Certainly not worth the hassle, to me. I'll take a turkey (or turkey breast) brined and then slow smoked on my smoker over a deep fried one any day of the week and twice on Sunday. For that matter, if only for the difference in hassle, etc. I'd just cook it in the oven before I'd fool with deep frying it. However, that isn't what you asked so I will try to help with your actual question as well as I can... Were it me, I'd go outdoor fryer all the way. I have a good sized, propane fueled fryer that I use when I want to fry a large batch of fish and chips, etc. If nothing else, frying in such volume indoors can leave a 'fast food restaurant' kind of smell in your house - and although that might sound pleasant for a short time, trust me - it gets old quick (and can take days to go away.) Also, heating up that much oil inside your home has a potential for being messy and possibly even dangerous. Personally, the thought of having a grease fire burn a small part of my front lawn sounds a lot better, to me, than having a grease fire indoors. Cleaning up a big pot of oil outdoors always seems a lot easier to me, too. Finally, were I going to deep fry a turkey I think that just about the only thing that would make the whole ordeal remotely worthwhile would be the ability to sit outside with a beer while I watched it cook. I'd go with an outdoor unit. [/quote] I actually prefer the Turkey(s) I smoke on the grill, too. Getting the fryer out is really just a conduit to do some onion rings until it's time to cook the turkey

Propane. Outside. They just work better. Added plus of freeing up space in the kitchen, too.

[quote name='OhShoot' timestamp='1352218788' post='840038'] I wonder how many of those soldiers won't get their vote counted this year. - OS [/quote] I hope they get that squared away and get them counted. I'd love to think it's a conspiracy, but I think it's unfortunately simply incompetence combined with indifference.

[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFARd8aKoSU&feature=youtu.be"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFARd8aKoSU&feature=youtu.be[/url] Remember, that regardless of who you plan to vote for today, American soldiers have bled and died to give you that privilege. Don't take it for granted. There are billions of people in this world who don't get to participate in a grand experiment like this one we call America. Get out there and make your voice heard!

You sure you've got a real one? There's enough premium on them that we've seen grey market ones out there. Mike is right. They don't have to be clocked in any certain position, but the closer I look, yours does look like it might be machined a bit weird.

That stinks!
