I'm glad I'm not the only one on here that reads Fark.

Thanks David. I'll be making a couple of trips to GA in the next couple of weeks so this info is very much appreciated.

Looks pretty cool, I'm gonna set my DVR to record it. It's on again tonight at midnight I think. TLC's Family Armor Featuring Texas Armoring Corporation

I can just picture how the repo would go down...

Can anyone recommend a carpenter in the Springfield area? I need one to fabricate and install the railings for my front porch.

Unfortunately no.

I refuse to feel guilty for liking movies or video games where I get to shoot virtual people and blow **** up. It is just entertainment. The video game is not supposed to be about anything more or less profound than that. Their SOLE function is to entertain.End. Of. Story.

I know it doesn't help you, but I found some at the Ace Hardware in Springfield. Like others have said, if you can't find them locally you could always order them from Amazon.

tl;dw

I prefer to keep my zombies at a distance. Less chance of one biting or scratching me.

wow! Be afraid. Be very afraid. Here's a few choice excerpts...

I don't see anything wrong carrying without a round chambered. It's still better than not carrying at all and it gives you time to adjust mentally to carrying a handgun. my

Mowed my yesterday. I should be good until next year.

I might have to give it a try. I couldn't stand Vista so hopefully this will be better.

That second picture is wicked looking. Nice job!

If they do try to fire you for carrying you could try to use this for leverage to stay. At least until you can find other employment.

Exactly. Dogs are much much better than cats.

Exhibit #1

ummm.........ok?

The only way to verify it's still there would be to open up your suitcase and look. I wouldn't do that in a crowded airport. I waited until I got in the rental car before checking.

I meant to post this earlier, but I got caught up in work and life... I recently had to fly to Austin, TX for 1 day training course on a Wednesday. The wife had the idea to turn it into a mini-vacation and take take the rest of the week off. Before the flight, I checked to make sure that I could carry legally in Texas and then I looked at Southwest's website to see how big a hassle it would be to transport it. According to their website "Firearms must be encased in a hard-sided, LOCKED container that is of sufficient strength to withstand normal handling". I found a lock box at Guns and Leather for around $30 that would work perfectly. The night before the flight, after the wife had packed the luggage, I added a full box of Golden Sabers, the empty lock box, and an empty spare magazine into the suitcase. I made sure it was the original factory box with the plastic holder for the ammunition because some of the information I found online indicated that anything less could potentially cause problems with the airline employees and/or TSA. The day of the flight I went to work as normal with my carry weapon. When it came time to leave for the airport I took my full magazine out and put it in my desk drawer. Then I locked it in the lock box which was in turn locked to the metal spine of the suitcase. At the check-in kiosk for Southwest I informed the lady there that I was transporting a firearm (make sure you do this!!!) and she had me fill out a little card with my personal info (name, address, phone #) and the card was then placed on top of the lock box inside of my suitcase. She told the TSA agents that I was transporting a firearm and then my suitcase was put on the conveyor belt and sent through the x-ray machine. When we arrived in Austin, I claimed my suitcase as normal and left the airport. I had no trouble carrying in Texas. The only problem I had was at the Austin airport when I was trying to check my suitcase/firearm on the way back to Nashville. The TSA lady seemed VERY confused about the procedure for transporting a firearm. After talking with her and handing my suitcase over to her I was actually worried that it would get lost. She seemed to be pretty under-trained and that was not very comforting. All in all it was pretty easy and straight forward to transport a firearm and it is something that I wouldn't hesitate to do again. As a side note: TSA is every bit as much a PITA as I thought it would be, BUT the procedures were relatively quick and painless. My wife carries some pepper spray on her key chain. It's a big red cylinder that you just can't miss. TSA, however, never flagged it.

Back up your personal files first. More than likely they are not infected. You can always clean them before you copy them back to your computer.

Format the HDD and reinstall Windows. It will probably take less time to do that then it will to try all the other stuff.

Wouldn't it be easier (less weight and room taken up) to carry 1 bottle of water and then a portable ceramic water filter to get more water on the move? I would be interested in a small photo book of edible plants for TN. If you find a source let me know.

I have had DirectTV for several years and not had any phone line attached to the receiver.
