Self-Defense Behind the Wheel
peejman replied to zapfbroad's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
This (and love the Blue Brothers reference!). :cool: I've told my wife that many times. I don't care who's in the way. If things go sideways, floor it and move them. Anything smaller than an F350 can pretty easily be pushed out of the way. I'd much rather deal with a claim on the car insurance than the life insurance. -
The average consumer can't get the high powered chemicals the pros use. But when used properly the OTC stuff works fine. I've had termite swarms around the house (no infestation) and the "bug be gone" liquid killed them or ran them off. I use it once per year now.

Beretta Nano..one in the chamber?
peejman replied to Drjack88's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
A defensive gun without a round in the chamber is nothing more than an expensive hammer. -
Nice! Wants!

While I'd agree that camo matches almost everything, it depends on the occasion and it sure doesn't match that shirt!

Looking for some practice advice on Guitar.
peejman replied to maroonandwhite's topic in General Chat
My favorite play along was just with the cd's I had. I'd get the tab book stick the cd in and have at it. That was fun but I wasn't learning any of the fundamentals that help you improv and really become a better player. I could play lots of songs but little else. -

In my experience, lessons are the best way. You'll never push yourself like a good instructor will. I have the same time/money issues but I learned more taking lessons for a year than I did in the 15 or so before that. We moved away from the teacher but I'd really like to get back into it. -
N. Korea's Kim aims rockets at DC, LA, Hawaii and Austin
peejman replied to Good_Steward's topic in General Chat
Nah. He's just like his father, an impotent megalomaniac. The old man just got too old for this sort of adolescent nonsense. He's a just a new face for the media. He's gotta thump his chest, stomp around, and raise a fuss to convince the old generals who used to work for his dad that he's the boss. Like most bullies, he's feeding off the attention. The only thing I'm aware of they've actually succeeded in doing is nuking themselves. -

peejman replied to Good_Steward's topic in General Chat
This isn't new. NK has been doing this for 50 years. The mass media has just decided its fun to report it. Its something else to get people spooled up about and distract them from the important stuff. Saber rattling... blah, blah, blah. All that nitwit's words and $2 will get you a cup of coffee. Go back in your hole and STFU. -
I can't believe how stupid I have been
peejman replied to mav's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Should be. Kinda like common sense... Clearly you understand more than I do (which really isn't much of a compliment ;) ) I had to google OTC derivative exposure. I now know what it means though I don't think I really grasp the concept. The whole idea of securities and futures is just too abstract for my simple mind. The debt to GDP ratio is interesting. Clearly Cyprus is an example of what can happen when one's creditors lose confidence, be that individual or governmental. Bah... that's just crazy talk. -
Kewl, the kukri in particular. I've always thought those just looked mean.

Nothing like a little trench gunsmithing to fix a trench gun. What you did certainly won't make it blow up.

Anyone intrested in a shoot? *Poll added, please vote
peejman replied to Spots's topic in Events and Gatherings
It just occurred to me that this is next weekend. Time flies. I plan to come, but won't be able to get there until about noon. The directions on the previous page seems easy enough to follow. Some GPS coordinates of the final location might help. Or maybe just a screen shot from google maps. Looking forward to it. -

peejman replied to mav's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Perhaps they're not that stupid, they're simply ignorant. Very, very few people make any effort to understand how the banking and governmental finance systems work. I don't think that's entirely their fault. Those systems have evolved over time to be so absurdly complex, they're effectively beyond comprehension. A single input could result in 1000 different outputs based on 1 million variables. Until the systems are simplified to the point that they can be reasonably understood, I think they're all doomed to fail in one way or another. In addition, the looming bankruptcy is bad news and people neither like to give nor receive bad news. They're very difficult problems with very difficult solutions, o they just ignore and hope it'll go away. It's not a big stretch to say that we'll be in the same position in a decade or two. -
Lookalike? meh, not really. But not bad either.

Army wife near Nashville shopping for my first gun
peejman replied to a topic in New Member Introductions
Find a range near you with rentals. Try lots of them. Try guns you don't think you'll like, they might surprise you. Pick the one you shoot the best. Range and rental fees are a small investment compared to the purchase price. oh, and welcome! -
I'm guess my method of sitting the cassette recorder on the floor in front of the amp isn't going to be adequate for your needs. The kids yelling in the background makes a nice ambiance. :rofl: But I don't sing so 1 track works fine. My wife always complains that I have a 1 track mind... I'm completely ignorant of the whole recording process but find it very interesting. I'm learning lots of stuff. :cool:

Welcome! Unfortunately I'm not a member at any of the local ranges, though it'll most likely be ORSA when that time comes.

Road Rage Couple Brings Gun To Fist Fight
peejman replied to gun sane's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
What a pussy. You picked a fight (for an exceptionally stupid reason) and lost. Be a man, take your lumps, and move on. You're lucky they didn't shoot you first. What a great example to set for your kid in the back seat, you f-ing moron. :shake: Clearly you're a sore loser. Bet that won't be the only thing that's sore while you enjoy prison. -
I wouldn't use a file unless you really know what you're doing. I'd try to break the corners with a soft cratex stone.

I hereby move that all naked chameleon shape shifters be required to take the form of Kate Upton. :dirty:

Very cool. Both the design work and the execution. I've never heard of a volcanic before.
