A few years ago Roadway the trucking company had a store here in Akron where they are based it was called Rex salvage, Roadway was self insured so if something got damaged lost etc it ended up for sale there. I bought a whole K band dish (about 6 ft accross) tuner and all that jazz. Wow was it cool I had cable too but at the time K Band was used mostly for live feeds etc generally high quality and unencrypted. I am a news junkie so I loved I I saw stuff way before the general public and generally unedited. show were sparse and feed on them were wild but I could never helo feeling like a redneck with the dish in the backyard.
Wow thats got a dual purpose, works to keep your movement from interefeing with the shot and if the actors get out of line you can break it down and beat em with the pipe, also works great for self-defense when shooting ghetto style.
Well I use my own special homemade Network sniffer, let me explain it, its a BIG Rubber nose on a BIG Stick with cat 5 hanging out the nostrils. It works GREAT Walk into someones office with that and they start rambling about all the programs they are running , have run, could run, and want to run, MOST likley out of fear of what you are going to do with the rubber nose on the stick, or maybe just because they are scared someone actually spent the time and built it.
In OHio the State is the biggest cheater/thief out there, about 2 years ago I got a state tax bill for 25,000 ! Now my income is in the 70's I aout had a heart attack, I call them and say what the hell is going on ! They tell me they will look into it and get back to me , about 2 weeks later I get a new bill with a note they have reviewd my returns etc. NOW They want $ 30,000 , Needless to say I told them to go f**k themselves. About 2 days later I got another letter saying that if I didnt pay or make arrangments to pay within 30 days they would put a lien on and possibly SIEZE my property ! So I transffered my home (clear at the time) into my mothers name (screwed up her capital gains tax but thats another story) AND I hired an Attorney. $700 later and about 2 months and it was all sorted out. It all stemmed from a vendors liscence I had , but I had never used it, I was at one time considering starting my own company. BASICALLY They ESTIMATED what my taxes SHOULD have been for the last 3 years combined, estimated based on what other business of the same description were making. NUTS !
Yeah I heard they were murder to be able to ride especially the big iron in Japan. Me and my friends used to sell a lot of specialty bikes to that broker I mentioned, CB400 Super Sport, Eddie Lawson Replicas GPZ turbo bikes etc. We always used to joke "why would you need a bike like this in Japan" I mean its an island fro cryin out loud how long could you really go fast before you hit a beach (toung in cheek of course)
I think people should not be forced to wear helmets either, I wear one MOST of the time , If I am running to the pool or the lake in the summer (5miles) in a rural area I dont usually, but then again the biggest problems there are the damm grasshopper. Weee this year is gonna be fun , ever hit a 17 year Cicada at 70 mph , nuff to bring tears to your eyes, litteraly.
Lol, when the first Honda 4 wheel drives came out I was a plumber, I had an apprectice with me one day and was behind one coming to a very busy intersection near our shop and it was snowy, I was "Watch this guy is going to skid right through" the apprentice watched in horror as the guy slid right through the intersection and was bounced off a car and a telephone pole, he asked me how I could have possibly know, EASY I said there was a new Honda dealer down the road, and this yuppie still had temp tags on, he was in fact the 5th driver in a new honda with temp tags I had seen do the exact same thing at that intersection, once I swear the guy was just trying to show he could drive better thanme, well I may have been in a new Astro van RWD , BUT it was the 3/4 ton model and I happened to have over 3000lbs of tools in it thing would stop on a dime in even the WORST weather, just cause its 4 wheel drive doent mean it stops any better.
I dont own any "Guns" as far a the law is concerned or even the ATF for that matter. Nor do I keep any of the parts in the house. I sold ALL of them, let them prove otherwise. If the govt was to round up all the guns Im assuming I would be in a later wave, their FIRST priority would be to round up all the registered guns with an easy paper trail, probably well over 50% of the modern firearms, THEN they would start picking up those they actually had to spend an effort looking for.
Hey seriousness aside, I lived in a rural area of Ohio about 1/4 mile from the municipal airport, I was talking on the phone on the back porch and here comes an Apache attack helicopter , it landed and refueled, I could see from my porch, then another and another, all total 25 in about a 4 hour period. A week later Iraq attacked Kuwait. I got some super pictures close up even had one pilot wave to me.
"a way that I believe is exactly what Linux needs to become a serious contender for Joe User's desktop"
While I appreciate the posters enthusiasm this is not a panacea for oe User putting Linux on the desktop. What is in my opinion is a scale of compatibilty with both hardware and software. I mean Joe User (or Joe Six Pack) Only cares if he can do what he need to with apps he wants to. NOT what someone else tells him is a better application. He wants to play his games, surf the web, doodle with his digital checks and balance his checkbook, Tell me of any GOOD applications the average computer illeterate could use to do his checkbook, edit his pictures etc that is as brainless as developers make them for Windows/Mac ? ZIP , There are GREAT apps for doing all those things but in general they are for much more sophisticated users. When Jp can go to CompUsa and buy anything he wants , games, tools, etc, that will run on Linux and has some support number he can call when he breaks shit THEN Joe will use Linux on the desktop.
Think about this for a minute, how many times has the US been invaded by a foriegn power ? Those that did were promptly shot up by the general population. If youve never had to use a gun I suggest you have 0 point of refrence. I have and without one I wouldnt be typing this post, Im sure people whose lives were saved by airbags feel the same way. The point of owning a gun isnt a simgle person standing up to what THEY percive as injustice, its a collective effort. If the US goverment said tommorow, for example ALL (insert somethign here) must do (insert somethign distastefull here) , Whats to stop them form doing absolutley anything they want ? Well Ill tell you as many guns in this country as people. If it gets to the point of an actually shooting conflict weve got one hell of a lot of problems.
I would agree 100%, my last accident about 4 years ago, I went over the bars yet again, due to another mechanical failure. My head hit a curb made of bricks at the corner of my driveway it was a Snell rated racing helmet and IT BROKE ! I ended up with a skull fracture, albeit it mild one a hell of a lot worse than any concussion Ive had, I cant even imagine what kind of gooo my head would have been without it.
Actually my step-brother was a stoner. She was deathly afraid of me following in his footsteps. Whats really sad is right now hes worth about a cool 5 million, and I cant find a #%$@^ job.
No it was in 85 we had 911 (at least I think so), I just didnt think to use it, I was in way too much pain and frankly exhausted from limping home.MOM was always good to pull your ass to the hospital when you broke it up on your cycle and boy did we break ourselves up.
Ok, listen to me , carefully, NEVER buy ANY GUN that can in ANY way shape or form be traced or has paperwork. I SERIOUSLY suggest making your own (YES it is %100 legal, but you can never transfer it as in sell it only your heirs may inherit it) You can buy what are called 80% Frames or Receivers for 1911A1 (Colt 45) M16 etc, and cheap, these are the registered parts (supposed to have a serial number) The 80% parts are %80 done they generally just need a couple holes drilled, rails cut etc. Its actually VERY cost effective, not to mention FUN:) Then you buy a parts-kit for your weaponof choice these sell cheap, hell look up sten kit on ebay, the receiver tube is just a piece of exhust tube and it a quite effetive SMG. Buy the parts let them sit, then you know thell be available when you need them. I go on the assumption that the day I need a full auto SMG, well the laws that are in place now will be long gone.My Bren cost me 119 bucks with a spare barrel and 2 mags, it could if needed be put together in a couple of hours with an arc welder and a dremmel. Screw SMG, I want an LMG
Actually several chains on mororcycles is not uncommon, Harleys have in some case 2 , a Primanry and a Secondary, I can think of several vintage brit bikes that had 2 and 3.
Losing a chain is not the danger , not even getting whacked with a broken chain at 60-70mph, a chain guard will stop almost all damage, it hurts but its not too bad with no chain guard like when my race bike let loose..
The REAL problem, and I give you this from a lot of riding and racing experience is when a chain catches in the back wheel/brake assy, one of my WORST ever accidents was due to exactly this, I had laid the bike down earlier and apparently bent the rear sprocket. I lost the chain at 50 or so mph, it catapulted me over the handlebars , then the bike ran over me, I was OK when I first hit the ground but the bike running over me broke 4 ribs, my jaw, my left elbow and my right wrist. I was 16 I walked home the rest of the way (1/4 mile) leaving the bike in the ditch, collapesed on the couch and called my mom and said mom im really f***ked up and hung up , she got home in like 10 minutes flat (normally a 30 minute drive) came in saw me bleeding all over and writhing in pain and said "OH Thank GOD I thought you were f****ed from drugs or something"
Well not if its going to be sold in Japan, there is a 500cc limit on motorcycles, hell it take many,many years to be even allowed to ride the 500cc big iron, you have to start at 5cc, liscences are issued accordingly, its funny they cant buy the big bikes they sell abroad new, BUT there is a lookhole that allows them to re-import used bike > than 500cc, I solg my 83 GPZ 1100 to a broker that specalizes in exactly doing that he made a million in the late 80's early 90's doing that.
12 oz , 5.5 % alc by vol.
I could, in my drinking days drink a case (24) and people couldnt even tell, not even my wife or mother (and trust me they were always the frist to notice) it was only when I started mixing that I would get bombed, it was not unusual for me to drink a case sometimes more a day on the weekends and 12 a day every other day.
But I dont drink anymore, like once in the last 6 months, a 12 pack pretty much blitzed me.
I agreee about the dehydration, aftewr usually the first 12 I would urinate very infrequently, I am assumin it was because of the dirutec effect of the alchohol.
Hey and sometimes those ugly chichs get better looking with age. When I was 16 or so this chick wanted to screw me BAD, she wouldnt leave me alone, She was friends with some of my friends but I couldnt stand her. Never did tag her, but as time went on she got alot better looking then well turned pro One of those old friends recently sent me this, I about dies I still dont think shes good looking but lemme tell you shes a HELL of a lot better looking than she was.
Now I am SURE its April Fools , Dating and the Slashdot crowd........bwwwhaahaaaa
Here a hint for the Slashdot crowd, wisdom beyond wisdom, after being married to 2 knockouts , now Im off to my third, its easy follow Bill Cosbys tips, GO FOR THE UGLY CHICKS ! Theyre horny, youre guarenteed to score and all you have to is cover their head with a bag.
In a word, maybe, if you dont find it funny, well go stuff it. I am so sick of "politically correct" asswipes that tell people what they can and cant say. You forgot Hiroshima victims,...mmmm....extra crispy....
I am horribly disappointed, not at the bad AF joke but for some reason when I try to add it to my cart it says...."Gotcha! April Fools, silly monkey! "
I was hping to buy both and turn it into a sort of concentration camp for rodents, kill them in the case , cook em in the oven. I even had my label maker ready to print an Arbeit Macht Frei label over the drive bay, Oh well, back to using the microwave..
No, back in the 1970's there was an FM radio that hung around your neck in a lycra holder, it was called the Bone Phone, they were sold in magazines the same company I think was the one who made the special tape recorders marketed for retention that ran at a higher speed. I cant for the life of me remeber who sold them, I used to get their catalogs all the time they specialized in audio tapes, Demco, Dalco, something like that

Yeah but so does coffe, has electrolytes I mean. Although everything is relative. I at one point in time when on a biology research trip to Andros Island in the Bahammas was drinking 4 gallons of water a day. At less than 3 gallons I would dehydrate to the point I didnt pee for 2 days. At 4 gallons I would go twice a day. I didnt even sweat noticbly, but half the time I was in the water diving, but even on land between the breeze and the long sleeved cotton shirts absorbing then evaporating sweat. We had to monitor and log our water consumption.
