I thought you were just happy to have finally met me.

and i'll attempt to close the door mostly and stake my rep around here on the fact it was more an unnecessary fear of unknowing the legality of such a transaction from the OP who I sort of know. Had I known any of this, I would have straight bought the guns from him and re-sold them to max without an issue

People with ARs don't have feelings, they have mix and match parts.

MT skipped right over me stopping in today and buying a lower kit........whats up with that shit? Just because I dont have big titties and a nice ass, doesn't mean I don't have feelings. :bs:

Really?....your mind is always there and yes you are that easy ..... if the proper accessories are included. BTW congrats on the new toy!

Good buy!! I love my T3i

hahaha omg. I know. you just pulled it out and I just knew right then that it was the perfect size and fit and I had to have it right then and there.

I wouldnt have posted it if I didnt think it was a good deal edit: folks have been selling the printer for about $100 on ebay as well to recoup some of that cost...getting you in your budget in the long run. let me know if you're looking to do the same.

I'll take a crack at this. You can always start at sites like politifact.com or factcheck.org. They're supposed to be non-partisan fact-checkers, but people still complain that they're biased. Regardless, as long as they're citing references, you can always go to the source material and verify what they're saying. I think, though, that people generally make up their opinions by listening to what lots of politicians say, and filtering that information through a thorough understanding of the way our government works. I'll explain this with an example -- every political candidate ever promises to save money by cutting fraud and waste. Romney promises to cut $60 billion this way. Obama has a whole page detailing ways he has or plans to cut waste. In general, Romney has been hammering this point harder. Is that because Obama doesn't really want to cut waste? Of course not, that's ridiculous. It's because Obama's been at this for 4 years. If he says he's going to cut waste, the obvious question is, "Why haven't you done it already?" Promising to cut waste is always a strong move for the challenger, because it implies that the incumbent is incompetent, and because we have no idea what the challenger may or may not be able to do once they get in office. How much weight should we give to this promise to cut waste? Easy answer -- look at a timeline of the last hundred years and point to periods of economic prosperity that are the direct or indirect result of cutting waste. Can't be done, for a few reasons. One, there's really not that much waste to cut. Yes, the government is inefficient, but so are all large industries. Automakers spend millions every year on dead-end products, marketing bungles, and countless employees who sit around and play WoW all day. We like to think that the private sector is streamlined and efficient, but really, being human is pretty wasteful. Two, waste is really hard to cut. In my job, it's typical for someone to identify two programs that duplicate effort and decide to cut one of them. I'd say there's a 50% chance they'll succeed based on numbers alone, and they'll probably spend a few million in the process. If it were easy, the waste wouldn't be a problem in the first place. Three, the president doesn't really have that much power. Consider our 2012 expected budget, which is just shy of $3.8 trillion dollars. Of that, about 60% falls under the category of entitlement spending. That spending is dictated by law, and the president has nothing to do with it. He can make recommendations, like Bush did with social security, or Obama did with the PPACA, but ultimately it's up to congress to accept or reject those suggestions. The remaining 40% is considered discretionary spending. Congress passes appropriations, but allows the executive branch some leeway in determining how it's spent. Half of discretionary spending is the military, about $700 billion, and we all know how hard it is to cut military spending. That leaves $700 billion or so for all the other programs that the government runs. If 10% of that is waste, you have a number pretty close to what Romney says he'll cut. Now consider that our deficit is $1000 billion dollars. Even if Romney is successful at cutting waste, which history says he won't be, he's only solved 7% of our budget problem. If Romney goes on a scorched earth rampage of cutting government programs by 50% across the board (without touching the DoD like he says), he's only solved 35% of our budget problem. Likewise, Obama's plan to raise taxes on the rich doesn't amount to a hill of beans either. Raising taxes on the rich is politically safe, though, just like promising to cut waste, so we hear a lot of that. Savvy voters will tune that crap out, because it's meaningless. For a presidential election, you have to look at what a president can actually do, which includes things like temporary military actions; meeting with heads of state; appointing supreme court justices; and perhaps most importantly, setting the overall mood of political discourse in the country. Because the real power is in the legislature, but nobody pays much attention to that. (not proofreading this, so deal with any errors )

and dont forget to have multiple, explicitly documented (filmed) consensual relations with various female higher ups. this will only serve to solidify your "value" to the company, and ensure a express path to stardom and being knee deep in money and bishes and gilfs and kia's.

That looks like a decent kit for the money spent. B&H and Adorama are both very reputable and where I purchase all my photo gear. They will ship it today and you will get it Thur unless it happens to be some Jewish holiday today.

Looks like Dale beat Todd to the new "knuckler" Nice piece btw!

Sorry.

You spelled cum wrong.

Hmm... Probably the same kind orgasmo would carry by the looks of it

that requires having something to compare it to!!! hehe oh yea haha. i'm sure you'll just have to find out.

^^^ This! IMO this sounds like a shady deal from a shady seller. A legit seller would have had no problems posting pics UNLESS something was not right with the firearms or they were stolen.

I have zero issues with a ginger.

I'm scared to ask her to elaborate..

You've always been ass backwards Mike. Ride a Honda. Own a Nikon. You probably drive a Prius don't ya.

i can see that this thread is going to end well

This week when I look outside I really feel that way Anyways Saturday I am going to ride miles and miles before i sleep if there is no rain

I never said there was. but they are fun to play with. hehe

learn to multi quote

I have a D40 and it does everything I need it to. The D50 that bam bam recommended can be had for dirt cheap now a days and is a great camera as well. The good thing about those two cameras is they are easy to learn on and make the transition from P&S to DSLR easier I think... A how to book or video might be a nice addition to the camera to help her understand aperture, shutter speed, ISO, etc. and how it relates to the final product.

I have been using a Nikon D50 for years and have never outgrown it. If you want a camera to learn on, then something like that would be a good starter and because the cool kids all need much better cameras, you can pick them up relatively cheaply. Getting quality lenses off the bat may be putting the cart before the horse. Better to learn the basics with a kit lens and then make an educated decision about what lenses you want to acquire.

Happy to help guys - I got the link here last year, so I figured I'd pay it forward, right?

***Spoiler alert** don't read if your not up to speed... **** **** I was kinda hoping that when Hershel "came to" at the end of the show, after Lori performed CPR, that she would get bit and turned into a walker. Not a fan of Lori. And I would like to see crossbow guy become the leader of the group.

well hey its walking dead thread.. i take no assumptions that people aren't up to speed lol...

He's going to use them front and rear on a Ruckus and go for the world's record in gas mileage....
