  1. Double post
  2. One of the only cases I know of where the police or BATF came inquiring about a handgun,they were pleased just to get copies of emails which had the phone number of the buyer. It's not really a big deal as long as you don't knowingly sell it to a felon and you are both residents of the same state. If you go through a FFL they are required to keep the record for forever. If they close the BATF takes possession of the records.
  3. It will provide some relief from poison ivy irritation to.

    Pearl Harbor

    I was stationed In Hawaii for five years so it means a lot to me but even during childhood I always thought about it every Dec 7th. My wife was a elementary school teacher in the Hawaii public schools and she didn't have to teach it in school because it was all ready on the minds of the 6yr olds. It's truly a sacred day in the islands, everyone just has a completely different demeanor on Pearl Harbor Day.
  5. [quote name='cardcutter' timestamp='1354685539' post='855140'] Years ago the owner of Tommies Guns in East Ridge( right next to Chattanooga) told me he had a women come in who wanted to buy some ammo for her husband. She did not know what caliber his pistol was. She asked him if he could sell her an assorted box so her husband could just use the ones that fit. [/quote] I knew the family that had that place. I think there name was Aaron, now they did know me but still I went in there at 10yrs old with a friend and the owner let md hold an UZI. Super cool.
  6. [quote name='strickj' timestamp='1354668172' post='854995'] The guy wasn;t a medic. He was just rushing his wife to the hospital. He ran several red lights in the process and nearly creamed a cop (the one in question) at an intersection. Either the mayor or chief apologized for the man's reckless driving [/quote] I looked it up, it's been a couple of years ago. I updated the post.
  7. [quote name='vontar' timestamp='1354587634' post='854582'] I heard of a case where an officer gave an ambulance driver a ticket in Chattanooga for running a red light rushing a person to the hospital. I heard when it got in from of the judge he told the officer he didn't every want another ambulance drive in his court room, that one day they might be going to his house. [/quote] It was a nurse technician in his own vehicle rushing his wife to the hospital. A traffic camera showed the guy speeding through a intersection at a very dangerous speed and nearly striking the patrol car. The officer handled the situation fairly well from what I remember. It was obvious what was going on when they got to the ER. The Chief stood Firm behind the officer, it was dismissed and I don't remember anything else ever being said. I heard the nurse was terminated because a lot of fiction was found in his story about what occurred. He stated the officer block the door and he didn't. He stated the officer pulled his gun, and he didn't. The officer didnt even give a ticket the night of the incident but later issued a warrant after the facts were evaluated. The guy was told to just turn himself in. He said there was no warrant when he went to the jail but know when remembered him coming in and asking. The Erlanger Police verified the warrant and arrested him when the time was right.
  8. Nick Saban.. Why did they even go for 3?
  9. Did anyone see the helmet to helmet late hit on Aaron Murray? I'm having a hard time watching this game. That second half Bama team will be out shortly.
  10. 1. They want to know when they will get there next "stimness check"!
  11. X2 on the 45LC cheaper and milder.
  12. [quote name='Il Duce' timestamp='1354192859' post='852349'] Sounds like Hixson lol [/quote] My mom graduated in 80 and my aunt in 83, what year was this done? I heard about it before.
  13. Yeah I was wondering if it was a different shovel every scene.
  14. Hey Hauli, how's Hawaii? I spent 5 years there and miss it more every day.
  15. I love mine and honestly I can't tell a difference between shooting my G19 and my G23. If I could only have one Glock it would be my G23. It is somewhat too big for summer time carry and I normally use a j frame or a G27 for the summer.
  16. You'll be able to get all his info from a police report. Just let the police handle it. Call that officer every day to check progress.
  17. Well, paper money collecting isn't as hot as it was even 5 years ago, but they were selling for around $100. Truthfully eBay and the internet was one of the things to blame for the decrease in currency, stamp, card collecting amongst other items. Everyone knows the values, the rarity, and how to get the most for an item. Your $1 isn't all that rare, and sometimes will be released with it's known mistake, mainly since paper money has a relatively short life anyway. My wife works in a bank and often buys odd and collector money that comes through. http://shop.mobileweb.ebay.com/searchresults?kw=Misprinted+dollar&cmd=SREF&fads=All&call=All&sort=BestMatch&mfs=GOCLK&acimp=0&isNewKw=true
  18. The funniest part is the Llama guy is someone I have met before. "knockdown power"
  19. [quote name='Mike.357' timestamp='1353824387' post='850363'] ahem someone went undefeated during the regular season, someone else lost to a two loss team. [/quote] Another prime example of how hard it is every week in the SEC. I'm not being a smarta**, but I really want to know. Did Notre Dame play anyone ranked in the top ten the day they played?
  20. Go BAMA!!! I'll be honest, I'm scared to death of unpredictable GA. The SEC championship will be bigger than a National Title game.
  21. Appearantly there was a huge deal on ammo at Dicks sportinggoods that went unadvertised.
  22. There is a whole lot more to this story than the media is telling us. The fact the charge was changed to contributing to the delinquency of a minor tells me this was a very complex case.
  23. Around Chattanooga it's still plentiful.
  24. [quote name='oldmustangjunkie' timestamp='1353257340' post='847667'] Patton is the following possible? My friend relayed doing this years ago: He went in the dealership, played the 4 square deal to get the best trade in value, lowest monthly payment and set his payments to 72 months. After they were done with all the paperwork, he went to the cashier window, found out what his principal amount was and wrote a check for the full amount. I'm contemplating buying a GT500 in a year or so and want to minimize my overall investment. [/quote] You might save a little, but normally on that odd of a car the price is normally less negotionable unless its used. I tell people in short the best way to get a good deal is to walk into a dealer and make them think you are financing the full amount and that you don't have a trade. Negotiate over the next few days/week (never buy on the first visit) and then after they are bottom dollar say you know I was going to sell my car but what would you give for it?(this way you are talking real world trade value) I actually recommend not trading but whatever. I used to think the best time to buy was the week after Christmas but I don't think that much anymore. The week before/following a presidential election is the slowest at dealerships and they really want to sell a car. One of my friends that makes +75k a year didn't sell a car at a all around the elections. Some of my other friends took vacations because they knew it would be a wash. The last week of the month and before closing time can be a great time to close a deal. I've made a sweet deal at opening on a Saturday just to get the day started right wit hopes of creating a huge day to though. A neat but dirty trick is after you have talked the manager down as low as you think it can go pull your salesman to the side and say for every $500 you save me from here on out I'll give you $250 upon delivery. Most salesman won't accept it but if it's a guy that doesn't really care if he got caught he will go tell his manager to knock the price down another 1k if it's possible so you don't walk. Sounds weird but it has worked before. Most salesman just care about making money that day and assume they will be somewhere else next week. Good luck.
