  1. Yea, they left a lot of other stuff. It was a very quick grab.

    They knew what they wanted and what they needed to do to get it.

    The ramps were in the shed as well.

    They cut the lock off the shed door, then cut the other lock.

    This is in an Apt complex so if it was neighbors they couldn't use it themselves.

    Friends of neighbors is more likely. They left a lot of other tools. Ladders, hand tools etc. Yep, they had a shopping list.

    I still can't get over waiting until spring is almost here to grab it? :confused:

    Messed up. :nono: I hate living in an apartment complex.

  2. Broke into the tool shed then cut the lock on the cable which had it locked to the wall.
    Its probably a neighbor or somebody that knows you had it. I'd start giving the neighbors the stinkeye.

    That's what I was thinking. Kind of sounds like they knew you had it already, they came prepared. Were the ramps right beside it or somewhere totally else?

  3. Funny that you should mention that one, I like it the way it is. Almost every other vB site I've been on, puts it at the side.

    As long as the new version isn't any more work to manage, day to day, I say go for it. As for getting used to it, most of what I do won't change anyway, and the things that change that I don't use might encourage me to use them, if they're easier to get to!

    That's it!!! That's why it looks "bare". All the info that was at the top of each post is now on the left. Hmmmmm.

    I just find it quicker and easier to reference to.

  4. When the first M-16's were dumped in Vietnam, they were a jamming nightmare. They were marketed as a space aged gun that didn't have to be cleaned. They were wrong... and quickly issued cleaning kits and instructions on how to do it. But... In the middle of a jungle war (or desert war might I add) removing small parts from a rifle to clean them is a real pain in the ass. The AR has come miles over it's 4+ generations... but it is still not the greatest slog thorugh the mud gun... but if you take care of it it can work adequately. The modern A2, and A3's don't seem to be nearly as picky about ammo as the A1's... but some are. It all depends who made the parts. But, all that said... I have fired a LOT of steel case ammo in my day, and never had a problem with it.

    I have only had maybe a handful of jams with an M16A2/M16A4, even in the desert. Cleaning was nearly a daily thing though, better to be too clean than to be slightly dirty and jam. Covers were also placed in the magazine well. The only jams I really ever had were when using blanks for combat maneuvers.

  5. Why would they?

    With our phone bill (cell only) I look at the total amount of the bill, and if it's different than normal, I'm on it like a hound dog. Our bill went up by less than a single dollar, and I was all over it, and ended up getting my wife's 22% work discount applied!

    She gets a discount for where she works? I just told my wife to check it out for us :D

  6. A 6 year old and a 4 year old are upstairs in their bedroom. The 6 year old asks, "You know what? I think it's about time we started cussing.." The 4 year old nods his head in approval. The 6 year old continues, "When we go downstairs for breakfast, I'm gonna say something with hell and you say something with ass."

    The 4 year old agrees with enthusiasm.

    When the mother walks into the kitchen and asks the 6 year old what he wants for breakfast, he replies, "Aw, hell, Mom, I guess I'll have some Cheerios.

    WHACK! He flies out of his chair, tumbles across the kitchen floor, gets up, and runs upstairs crying his eyes out, with his mother in hot pursuit, slapping his rear with every step. His mom locks him in his room and shouts, "You can stay there until I let you out!"

    She then comes back downstairs, looks at the 4 year old and asks with a stern voice, "And what do YOU want for breakfast, young man?"

    "I don't know," he blubbers, "but you can bet your fat ass it won't be Cheerios!"
