  1. I hate homework assignments. Luckily for me I don't have a camera.
  2. Will the polymer trip the light signals in town?
  3. Tod, I wanted to send one more email this year to wish you and your family a safe and happy new year. I'm sure you will agree that 2011 was a transformational one in our great state as we turned our back on the status quo and its legacy of failure and instead charted a new course for reform, revival and a better future for every Ohioan. I'm proud to say our work is beginning to show results. Not only did we balance the budget and eliminate the nearly $8 billion structural deficit without raising taxes, we eliminated the Death Tax, we reformed Medicaid to make in-home care an option for our elderly and we’re preserving the vital funding to support Ohio families & children that need it the most. Next year, we will continue to fuel the momentum with a focus on education so our kids can have the skills they need to get good-paying jobs right here in Ohio. I need you to stay involved and keep sending your ideas. With your help, Ohio’s reputation around the country is improving and we’re beginning to rebuild our reputation as a leading state for job creators. Ohio is on the path to recovery but we still have a lot of work to do to fix our great state. Are you with me? Together we can do it. Happy New Year! John John Kasich Governor of Ohio P.S. You can click here to watch my short video message about all that we've accomplished together in 2011.
  4. If you wanted it badly enough you would pay whatever the asking price? Great concept on a finite supply. Stupid argument on a production gun.

The military doesn't do this. Compensation can be a way to maintain higher I.Q. employees but unions won't allow that.
  6. Not sure who this is directed at but I'll bite. The free market is having a discussion about a business that just fucked up and is about to lose more business than they are going to make from their decision. The topic is not Kel-Tec or your estimation of their value. If you wish to have some input about that which is a legitimate topic feel free to start one in its own thread.
  7. So much fail in this that I expect it will be impossible to repel all the stupid. Beachfront houses are a finite, production firearms from Kel-Tec are not. Only an idiot would expect Kel-Tec to quit making these but if so the back handed move would have been justified with very little fall out. (If that was Kel-Tec's intent they would have been priced way differently. I can assure you this first product release did not cover their development cost.) A reasonable man is expecting that Kel-Tec is going to produce as many of these as the market will consume. There are multitudes of ways they could have handled this but chose the worst possible one for future business. Woodbury’s is not the only retailer for these so they aren't finite; they have been very short sighted in not honoring a standing commitment. If you think others would be so ignorant to have done the same thing then I am certain you don't know too many successful business owners.
  8. You know that because you ride a 250
  9. 1911 is a very good target platform but they are probably the worst carry platform ever conceived. Plus they mostly use the useless 45 round.

  11. I really didn't believe him either and was being sarcastic. I have since verified it and am now very wrong. It sucks getting older; I can't keep up with you kids.
  12. I did not know that. http://glocktalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1391397
  13. No shit I'd be happy with that from any handgun and wouldn't suggest that I could do better but what I'm using wouldn't make much of a difference at that distance. I could probably shoot a better group at that distance with a nice target 1911 than with a G26 but I would never carry a piece of shit 1911.
  14. Are you making the statement that you couldn't shoot that well with any other handgun? This makes no statement toward the XDs dependability. I'm sure a nice target 1911 could do the same but they are an absolutely shitty carry platform.
  15. I will be at the Shot show in a couple of weeks Todd. I have been trying to get you to hold off on this based on a few issues that I hope to verify then.
  16. I own four of the top nine and agree with the ratings, almost. My brother has the one I had from way down the list for a HD gun. The G26 should move below the G34 if they would have used the standard capacity of the G26 which is 10 rounds not 12. They used the standard capacity for the other Glocks so I don't know why they made the change in the G26s case except to show some Glock bias. I hate the way a Glock feels in my hand but I don't shoot any other platform as well so I can forgive its awkwardness.
  17. You lead such an interesting life. You should have confused the criminal by not understanding English or whatever it was speaking.

  19. I do not understand? We can say almost anything we want around here can't we?
  20. I am offended by your offense. I intend to keep reading this thread no matter how much I don't like the subject matter and if you don't curb your behavior I will do everything I can to get you to comply to my senses about appropriate internet topics. Not reading political threads is not an option you not putting them right in my face and hiding them is how it's supposed to work around here. Get with the program or I will ask management to sanction you.
  21. I propose this thread get moved to the unseen politics category. No one wants this on the front page per management’s actions. You guys need to stop talking politics or I'm complaining.

  23. I have been there in late December/early January. Cherahola wasn't passable unless you had four wheel drive, lots of snow and single lane for the most part. The rest of the area had really dirty roads. (Tree branches, gravel, leaves etc...) The road surface is cold and not enough traffic to support you if you are riding around by yourself and something goes wrong. I wouldn't go if it were me, you might be different. I wouldn't feel comfortable riding at a brisk pace in those conditions so I wouldn't put the effort in to go that far to ride in less than optimal conditions. Just stay at home and ride around if we get a day in the 40s.
