  1. I doubt Hank will back off and I doubt Jesse will rat Walt out. Marie is the one who surprised me, suggesting he kill himself. Dang, that's a lot of hate and that was before she saw the tape. I wouldn't be surprised if any of the 3 tried to kill Walt.
  2. I'll this to my list of reasons I prefer to shoot at an outdoor range.
  3. Glad to hear it wasn't worse and that it sounds like there's no permanent damage.

    I Pad help

    Don't be afraid to try an Android tablet. Their Jelly Bean and Ice Cream Sandwich OS are both very good. They aren't as sexy and fluid as iOS, but they're faster and more powerful.    ASUS makes a really good tablet called a [url="http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=Property&N=100013681%20600372021%20600372015&IsNodeId=1&OEMMark=N&PropertyCodeValue=449%3A154842%2C449%3A168091%2C449%3A281841%2C449%3A338569&bop=And&Order=REVIEWS&PageSize=100"]Transformer Pad[/url]. It gets pretty good reviews and can save you about $100 over the iPad4.   You can buy a refurbished iPad for about the same price, but it'll be an iPad2 (which you DON'T WANT for business use) or iPad3. That ASUS is definitely better than an old iPad and benchmark tests say it's considerably faster than the new iPad. It may, however, come down to what is compatible with your work software.
  5. I went today too. There was plenty to see and plenty of room to get around in there. I found a few things I couldn't live without, but not much.
  6. I tried one on a Gum Creek vehicle holster mount under the steering wheel of my truck. I didn't wind up using it, but I still think the idea behind the holster isn't as bad as everyone lets on. Despite not using it, myself, I have to admit that you probably couldn't break the tip off inside the barrel without trying real hard. I know someone who carries with one and he likes his.   I mean, it isn't for everyone (including me), but I don't think they're a front-runner for worst idea in the firearm industry.
  7. I picked up one in a trade a while back, but it looks so clean I'm reluctant to shoot it.   They worth anything?
  8. Not that it matters, but I think you did the right thing. The old phrase don't $hi+ where you eat has multiple uses, IMO.   I've never "been made" in public or at work (that I know of), but I'd do what you did, if it happened.
  9.   Yeah, I wish TN would change to closed primaries. I don't like the idea of a bunch of Dumascraps getting to help nominate the Republican candidates. I know it swings both ways, but I bet the R turnout at the D primary is very low.
  10. Why don't these idiots stay home and poop in their own backyard instead of going to Washington and trying to ruin things for the rest of us?
  11. Glad I'm not the only one with this affliction. Over the past 6 or 8 years I've gotten into leatherworking, woodworking, reloading, survival gear, kydex molding, and that's just the main hobbies. I find that once I have all the stuff I need for any of these, I get started on something new. I don't lose interest in the others, I just lose the obsession. Cool thing is, I can pick back up with any hobby and make stuff as needed. One thing that's always been there is my taste for guns, I can just afford it better now than I ever could before.
  12. I'm glad they put up a poll and I'm glad you posted it. However, they screwed the poll up early, letting people vote multiple times. Just saying...not sure we can trust the results.
  13. Primaries are the perfect time to "risk" a vote. Believe it or not, I'd vote for Basil Marceaux over Alexander and consider it a vote well spent.   Somebody's gotta get this traitor out of office and Mr. Carr is just the man to do it. He's one of the good guys, IMHO.
  14. I'm not a serious knife owner, I'm a little more laid back, myself. Nonetheless, most of my knives have the washers. I'm curious to see what the experts say. I've prolly been using the wrong lube on them.
  15. That would be the coolest!!! If we could get an upper and a lower with matching numbers and logos, I'd be very very happy. Of course, I'd still be happy if all I can get is a TGO lower and/or plain upper.
  16. I'm so happy to soon be moving back to the dev team as a dba.
  17. Hmm, sounds about right, actually.
  18. Since all I have is a mountain bike, my wife's Kia, and my F-150....I guess I'd throw a bike in the back of a pickup. More likely, I'll bug in.
  19.   Couldn't agree more, my title is Project Engineer, but I'll be damned if I know what that means.
  20. I've been really thankful for a mild summer overall and for a north-facing garage that doesn't get any direct sun. I've only been run out of the garage one or 2 days due to heat so far.
  21. I don't exactly want to cuddle up with any spider, nor have their darn webs tangled in my face when I walk through one, but I do like them better than everything they eat.
  22.    I swear, I wasn't poking at ya, just clarifying...sorry if it seemed that way. When it first came out, you could get one as low as $325. They REALLY wanted to establish a foothold in the tupperware market AND the Euro style non-dropfree mag didn't go over well here. They fixed that and started selling a ton of them. Now they can charge more, I guess. If you haven't felt the trigger on a P-07, wait until you have $500, because you won't want to leave the gun store without it.
  23. The slide of a P-07 Duty rides inside the frame, just like the other 75 variants they make. The grip angle is the same too. The only thing that set is apart to me is the flat (non-humped) backstrap and flat grips (no palm swell). I like this about them, since I run ultra thin aluminum grips on my other 75 variants. Still, it's definitely a personal taste thing. Some people just have poor taste...just kidding, of course.
  24. I'm a big fan of Larry Potterfield and MidwayUSA. They sponsor a bunch of my favorite TV shows and no doubt they wouldn't survive without such a strong sponsorship. Plus, I think they do a great job all around. They're usually my first stop when I'm shopping on the web for something, I can't get locally. I feel like buying from them instead of say, Amazon, is like supporting a locally-owned shop instead of walmart.
  25. Ted died of a self-inflicted broken neck. Saul sent over some goons to get him in line. Ted panics and runs, slipping on a carpet and taking a header into a cabinet.
