  1. Happy B'day! I'll be there myself soon.
  2.     But the video is awesome!  That's what the mute button is for.   While in college, a roommate and I had a class break from 12-2.  We'd go back to our dorm, turn on CMT, mute it, and turn Rush on the radio.  Made for a nice lunch break. 
  3. Layla, the original version by Derek and the Dominoes.    The opening riff is excellent and iconic.  The never-ending dueling guitar solo garbage at the end is freakin' horrible.  I love Eric Clapton's music and Duane Allman's music, but the two of them playing totally uncoordinated solos over the top of one another in the same register is just awful.    The acoustic version Clapton later recorded at an "MTV Unplugged" session is excellent. 
  4. Sympathy for the Devil - Rolling Stones.  That endless "hoo-hoo" crap drives me nucking futs.            Free bird - Mostly repetition.            While I know zip about ICP, don't let the Slipknot image fool you. Not only are they talented musicians, they f'ing rock!  :rock:
  5.   Sometimes they come pre-monogrammed.  Bonus points if they happen to match up.
  6. Free Bird.   There, I said it. 
  7. This one time, at band camp.... Ah the stuff that happens. My guess is he's in ROTC.
  8.     Sounds like fun.  Wish you were closer (and wish I had some free time) ....
  9. That sounds yummy. So far I've avoided smoking beef. Getting beef right seems kinda touchy and honestly, I'm scared of it. I'll be really, REALLY, pissed at myself if I ruin a perfectly good $50 hunk of meat. Guess I'll have to suck it up and have a go sometime....
  10.   Me next!     Best of my memory, you should be getting all your groomsmen a small gift of some sort.  A pistol is quite a gesture and way more than what I could afford when I got married.  I got my groomsmen personalized gifts, in that each of them got something different.  One is a big Ferrari F1 fan so I got him a huge Ferrari flag to hang in his garage.  Another is a big Metallica fan so I got him a DVD set.  I also covered about half the cost of their tuxes.  I've been a groomsman in their weddings as well and have received a nice engraved flask and a beer stein, among other things.    That said, how about Battle Mugs?
  11. Finally got the smoker out this weekend. Didn't get any pics of preparing the bologna, but here's the finished product. It's yummy.

    XDs 9mm

    Good to know they've finally hit stores.  I want my wife to pick between the XDs9 and Shield.
  13. Ye ole F3. Had it for about 10 years and love it, though it'll be for sale whenever I find time to put it back together. And the mighty XT (next to a friend's KLX). Fun little bike.
  14. Other than the potential smell, skunks are good critters to have around.  They eat all kinds of much less desirable critters.  They're also typically pretty docile.  Trapping and relocating is probably the best option. 
  15.   Likely the best looking Tokarev that ever existed...
  16.   Ah.  That makes a bit more sense.
  17. With 1 acre, I'd definitely get a riding mower.  If money is an issue, look for a used one.  Keep in mind that most all the basic models sold by most retailers (Sears, Lowes, Home Depot, etc.) are effectively the same.  Keep it simple.  Fewer "features" means fewer things that can break.
  18. The choice between 0W20 vs 5W30 oil has more to do with meeting fuel mileage targets than lubrication, except in very cold climates.   The filter change is about economies of scale.  The cartridge type takes 10 second less to install on the assembly line and costs $0.003 less when you buy 5 million of them. 
  19. Mileage depends on how and what you drive.  I've put well over 75k on a set before.  A friend's wife smokes the pads and rotors in under 30k repeatedly.
  20. I'm surprised he got in there with it.  We went a few years ago and the searches were pretty thorough.  I even had a conversation with a security guy about the empty holster in my bag...
  21.     I've noticed the machinery thing too.  I'd guess Discovery is paying them easy 5 figures per episode.  I think they get an oil subsidy just for living in AK and they sell/trade the cattle to fund various things.  But I'd assume their bills are pretty low too.... no mortgage, no cell phone, no internet, no TV, no power, no water, ....   that makes life pretty cheap.
  22. When they're (nearly) worn out.  Ideally just before they start squealing since I don't want to ruin the rotors.  About 1/8" of pad left = nearly done.
  23. Safe empty.  Stuff will rattle around no matter how well you secure it.  What if you have a wreck/flat/strap breaks and the safe goes tumbling down the interstate?  Bring friends, beer, and an appliance dolly.
