UPDATES: The date is changed to April 16th! 2pm Entries Arrive 3pm Judging Begins 4pm Opens To Public 6pm Awards 9pm Ends Please email: somethingcreativecolumbus@gmail.com to register BY APRIL 2ND! We hatched this idea after one too many cups of coffee, and a serious lack of sleep. The Econo-Chop Challenge. April 1st is the day of the show. I'll be posting updates as we hammer out the final details, it's basically a show up on Friday with your build, have fun, make friends, influence people event. The show is in Columbus, but it's open to anyone. Here are the rules: Rule #1 The total cost, including the bike is $500.00. Yes that reads “including the bike.” This is an ECONO-chop Challenge. Rule #2 The bike must run. Not “almost run,” or “sort of run,” or “it turns over, but something’s wrong with the carbs” run. Run. As in start, idle, rev, move forward, etc etc etc. Rule #3 You must show a bill of sale and the accompanying advertisement (craigslist, ebay, etc) of the bike to verify the price you paid. I’m not going to believe you if you show up with a brand new ZX-14 and say you paid $100 for it. Rule #4 One item per bike is allowed to be donated. A motor is comprised of many different items, and as such is not an individual item in and of itself. Rule #5 Creativity reigns supreme. Rule #6 The judges reserve the right to check and/or re-value any part they believe to have been misreported. Ebay will be the final source of information regarding a parts value. (Come on, it’s called the ECONO-chop Challenge) Rule #7 Bribery of the judges is encouraged. Budget for “beer money” accordingly. Awards will be given: Best In Show - Overall winner People’s Choice - Voted on by the attendees Cheap as S*%T - Least amount of money spent Cool as F%&K - Determined entirely by the judges The Sweetawesome Award - The bike voted the best by the builders themselves. Think of it as an invitation to get crazy this winter, and teams are allowed to compete as well. Any questions, don't hesitate to ask here or message. The Blog: News, Updates, Photos, And More!

I got a PM asking about some watch education so i figured i'd post it live so others may learn as well...here it is. .Let me tell you a little bit about watches. I'll educate you enough so that you are "dangerous". invictas That company makes its living by saying a watch is 700.00 MSRP but you can find them anywhere for a c-note... Meaning, that they make you think you are getting a great deal... truth is, no one ever paid 700.00 for one. Buyer beware. you are going to meet alot AAAA-LOTTT of people who own invictas, I would suggest that you buy your invictas used on some watch forums... they can be had for 20-50 dollars used and sometimes BNIB on that forum. watches in general Ah the wonderful world of watches. Its confusing to know what to buy, what to stay away from, what to look for, and the best areas to compare watches. point number one - Mechanical or Quartz??? Which to buy? Buyer beware... JUST BECAUSE A WATCH SAYS "Swiss" on it DOES NOT MEAN IT IS MECHANICAL. Note to a lot of watches under 300.00 that say swiss are most likely a "swiss quartz"... which isnt a bad thing... but if you want an audi with HIDS and you buy one that doesnt have that feature i'd bet you'd be pissed. Regardless, the old argument is that mechanical watches are more expensive but quartz watches are more accurate... WHY IS THAT? (that my friend is for another time, i dont have 3 hours to type it out). Another thing we can talk about is automatic vs. self-winding... that too is for another time. point number two - "watches are sometimes only separated by aesthetics and branding". For instance Accutron sells a watch with the same movement as some watches costing 10 times as much... the only differences are from the outer appearance and the brand names. point number three - what should you look for in a watch? I am biased but I will give my opinion. I will only buy mechanical watches UNLESS i am buying it purely for its aesthetic values and usually im not buying those for much money because i dont value it that much either. Note the difference between luxury and fashion watches.... luxury watches will usually be automatic, have a long lineage/heritage to the brand, and cost thousands of dollars (rolex, breitling, panerai, and higher). Fashion watches tend to be quartz movement and cost under a grand (dkny, fossil, docle/gabanna, diesel, guess, gucci, etc)... then there are some that hit in between those... they will be about 1000.00 and have good mechanical movement but no frills or a big name to stand behind (MIDO, Longines, etc). I tend to buy watches that make me feel chills the first time i see it. I WILL NOT end up buyign a watch that i dont love from the first moment i see it... I USED to do that an all those watches did was collect dust. where to buy, cheap The most important part of loving a watch is not based on its price or the brand. My favorite watch i've ever owned cost literally 4% of the cost of my most expensive watch. ITs abotu how you feel when you wear it. With that being said I am now (as i learned the hard way the first time i bought a luxury watch) an advocate of buying used. Its fun to score deals on watch forums. You can really make some great pickups on the sait ESPECICIALLY ON FASHION WATCHES. Thats all for now, check out some watch forums and educate yourself. you can learn so much. - Bob

No it's not. It's not even considered. The framers (Madison) feared a federal military being more powerful than the people or state militias. They believed the addition of the 2nd would keep military-like power on the side of the people and prevent the types of laws that were passed in Britain. Earlier versions of the 2nd even explicitly mentioned "military service." It was about stocking arms and ammo for defense against the government or foreign invaders, about the government or rich not being able to disarm the populace, not about shooting the local cattle thief. Personal defense was a separate issue and kind of a given of the day with or without the 2nd. Most people of the day owned firearms already if they wanted for various reasons. The framers made note that they should not pass laws that would prevent citizens from protecting themselves or their property.

damn right there better than yours...

your milkshake brings all the boys to the yard.
