  1. Just spoke to a good doctor friend of mine. He is normally not too worried about all these different outbreaks but this one really worries him. Very odd for a happy go lucky doctor to be worried.
  2. Probably 10 times, did a system restore 3 times, scanned 3 times with Malwarebytes, disabled antivirus as well as scanning before disabled.
  3. And just think after they return our soldiers in Clarksville will be within 6 hours of anywhere in the state. What worries me is that they will probably be returning next summer and what is the place people like to vacation here in tennessee? That's right, Dollywood. And during the peak tourist season to make sure it gets nice and spread around. The first case within an hour of me and we are going full blown hermit. Going to shut the gate, quit mowing the grass and run off anyone who enters. We are now at 1K infected per week and estimates are it will be at 10K per week inside of a month. This is not a global killer that will wipe out the human race but I fear it will be comparable to the Flu outbreak of the last century or the bubonic plague that killed so many in the Middle Ages.
  4. Nope, that would not help anything and don't do it on my behalf because you won't see me there.
  5. Anyone who has met me or who has talked to me will say I am the nicest guy and go way out of my way to help people out. I am never looking for a fight, either verbal or physical.   My phone call started with me asking for the assistant manager's boss. I was nice and polite until he said the only person I am going to talk to was him. And even then I did not cuss, yell or do anything other than ask for the number for his boss. Had he done nothing wrong he would have gave the number out willingly. But when I was unwilling to accept the fact he was not going to give me the number he began telling me to come inside to settle this and when that did not work he began the personal attacks by calling me stupid.   I know a lot of people have reasons to have a bad day, I have plenty, but you will NEVER hear of me ever taunting people to fight or name calling.
  6. I spoke the company that manages that particular Burger King. They manage the BK as well as several other restaurant chains that are a much higher quality. The guy I spoke to even said that if it is remotely close to how I explained it the manager will not be there the next time you step foot in that burger king. He was very apologetic for what happened and said there is no excuse for a manager trying to taunt a customer to come inside or to call a customer stupid. He was going to have their store manager call me, it was an assistant manager who did this. The person I spoke with said they do not have audio on their phone systems when I asked them to check but he did say that there is video all over that store. He took the time we placed the order and assured me he was going to check the video. He said it will be obvious from his demeanor what happened as well as the fact there is at least one employee who will be willing to tell the truth with regards to what happened.   Trust me when I say I will hold him to his word and will follow up to find out the final outcome.
  7. Hopefully this is a learning experience for him.   BTW, he had no clue my wife and I were related. I did not mention her and he still was an ass with me so I will venture to guess he is an ass with a lot of people.
  8. A 1991A1 has a firing pin safety so the trigger MUST have been pulled to release the firing pin. That is unless they removed the firing pin safety. I have known a lot of people who have them removed to get the best possible trigger possible.   In the locked position it is impossible for the sear to get bumped off the hammer if installed correctly.   I wonder if the magnet field can agitate the powder enough to cause it to go off?
  9. Looking back I should have walked in on my crutches and let him settle it.   I don't care what kind of day you are having if you are tainting customers and calling them names you should not be in contact with those customers. There are consequences, Karma, for being an ass.
  10. We went through the drive through and placed and order. And just like a few days ago we were missing something so my wife went in to get the missing item. She asked them to check to see what was missing and the manager told one of the workers to make the missing item. The worker apologized to the manager for messing up the item and he said things happen. The manager put the item in the bag and my wife said it would be nice to get an apology. The manager got an attitude with her about it and told her she needed to calm down, she was calm. She said she would like an apology and he told her to leave and not come back.   Wife comes back to the car upset so I decide to call back in the BK to speak with the manager's boss about today as well as a few days ago and that is when things went sideways. I asked for a manager and he said he was. I said OK let me talk to your boss. He said he was the only one there and that he is the only one I will be talking to. I told him I wanted his boss' number and he refused saying he would not give it to me. He said to give him my number and I said no. I asked him again for his boss' number and he refused but began his tirade. He said I know what this is about and that you are still in the parking lot. He said come in if you want to settle this. I said excuse me and he said if you want to settle this come back in side unless you are too stupid to come back in. I said excuse me again and he said come inside and we will take care of this, come in here, come inside stupid. I then told him I hope he enjoys standing in the unemployment line.   A call to the managing company, and his supervisor, and it sounds like he might be looking for a job soon.   Now on top of this we had our oil changed at Walmart. The "mechanic" wrote down the wrong mileage and put the wrong oil in. I go back in to talk to a manager and the manager that comes to help me is one I had a problem with last year when he threatened to refuse to sell me a gun because my wife asked him why it took over an hour for us to check out. So I told him I was not going to talk to him and find me another so he got an attitude about that. Well the second manager asked why I didn't want to talk to the first one and I explained he had threatened to refuse a sale. He piped up and said I can legally refuse to sell you a gun for any reason. He went on to say my wife was screaming and yelling at him. I said she wasn't yelling at him and all she did was ask why it took over an hour to show up. At this point manager #2 said what can we do for you. I told him we had our oil changed and the wrong mileage was used as well as the wrong oil installed. He said did you tell him what oil and I said I told him to use the same that was on the sticker which is what has been used since the truck was new. He said pull it back around so we can change your oil and I told him we had groceries and cannot wait around for another hour. He said any food that goes bad they will replace. I could not stay any longer so I am going back in the morning to get the right oil put in.    
  11. That got it. Hard coding the Google servers in fixed it. Thanks so much. If you own an AR analog_kid PM me your address. BTW, this was the TCP/IP setting
  12. One other thing that would have helped is if the retailers marked the ammunition they sold. Stamping the box with "Sold at Walmart" or even better "Not for resale" would have got rid of a lot of the resellers. Unfortunately all the retailers I asked about it said they would not and the reason why is because right now it is being sold as fast as it is being put on the shelves.
  13. I will sticky this until the storm "season" is over. I am the only one who doesn't remember bad thunderstorms in October when I was young?
  14. I ALWAYS make sure I have my cell phone right next to me at night. Funny thing is the last time we had too call 911 my wife brought her cellphone to bed but forgot her glasses so she could not see to dial 911. Make sure you have everything you need right next to you and that you, and your family, have a plan. I have a plan and the final part of that plan involves patching hundreds of holes in the drywall if we have an intruder wanting to do us harm.
  15. He was but not the civilians. I bet if you tell most civilians you have an "inert grenade" they will freak out because you have a grenade.   I have only seen one person die "quickly" from a 40mm and it was a kid in Afghanistan who found a live projectile on the range. He was apparently throwing it up in the air and he missed it. It went off and in the 10 minutes it took US forces to figure out what had happened and get him to the medical station he died.
  16. I would be constantly trying different suppressor designs that have been rolling around in my head for a long time but can't because of the stupid laws regarding silencers. If there is one thing that should not be regulated in any way it should be a silencer. Regulating them is like regulating a set of BUIS, a scope or some other accessory. A dedicated 22lr AR is quieter than a suppressed 223 AR.   I know there are some serious research going on in other countries, by individuals and not the government, into small holes in the outer tube of the silencer to bleed of high pressure air. So far it seems very, very promising. How it works is high pressure is being released out of those small holes and the noise is at levels above human hearing. To the naked ear it is extremely quiet and that intrigues me like nothing else. I would also like to try different baffle designs but because I cannot even have a single extra baffle it is impossible without destroying baffles I have already made which is insane.   It should be encouraged to be a safety issue to prevent hearing loss.   But nothing should be regulated and as I said if they MUST regulate something to make themselves feel good regulate the person.
  17. A crappy as it sounds to get fired it is better than resigning. At least now you can get benefits you would not be eligible for had you resigned. Matter of fact I would go apply to make sure you don't have too hard of a hardship during this time.
  18. I would do three MGs, an AK of some sort, a RDIAS and some sort of 22. Oh and maybe an HK sear, nothing cooler than a MP5K in full auto or even a two stamp gun and suppress it.   And if they removed the silencers from the registry every gun I own, and do not carry on my person, will have a suppressor of some sort. I would add some mini, two baffle, cans to my Mini Draco to knock down the "bite" some.
  19. I completely disabled AVG and tried again with no luck. My next step will be to use the task manager to completely stop anything related to it and try again.   I did a system restore back to when I KNOW I was able to go to Walmart.com but that did not fix anything either. I know it is NOT a browser issue because it does it with different browsers.   I will be taking my laptop and comparing settings to each other. Both are running the same OS and this one, the laptop, works fine. Recommendations of where to start comparing?   Honestly this is one of the more frustrating problem I have ran into in a long, long time. Definitely not something I see very often.   If anyone knows of anything in the registry to check let me know, I am not afraid of the registry. I do edit it regularly but nothing related to the internet. Mostly just cleaning it of any traces of uninstalled programs.
  20. There should have been load data on the side of the container. I have tested it based on that load data and it is a safe place to start.
  21. Been scanned three times now, nothing reported on the last two.   It gets to the page but the screen is blank. I do not get any errors and it just looks like a blank page.
  22. Most civilians will not be able to tell a HEDP from a practice round. Mention "grenade", even practice, and people freak out.
  23. My host file looks EXACTLY like the one listed except this following line at the bottom: #      ::1                localhost I removed the line and still no change.   I have done the flush and register DNS commands, no change.   I used malwarebytes before posting this and anything found was removed. We both run AVG.
  24. You should not have to register again.
