  1. looks like a decent place - for only $35, can you really go wrong?
  2. please to pm a price on .45 auto, fmj/target ammo. 100, 250, 500, or case. brass or steel. i've cleaned out all the wally world $30 / 100 rnds in central ohio... tia! i need to start reloading, i think.
  3. not really sure what you're talking about - $35 is not = $50. when I started the account, I paid $35 for the 1st month. every month I pay $35 (plus $2 and change in taxes). that would be "prepay" or "pay-as-you-go" in my book, as I'm paying for service not yet used (pre-paying), and I can quit at any time, so it's "pay as you go". Maybe you and I are talking about the same thing but using different terms? I paid nothing to start the account, only the first month's charge.
  4. I bought Jr. a Virgin phone last Christmas, no problems. He "had" to have a slider, so got him the LG Optimus slider, Android phone. Put my Amazon App Store account on it, so any app I have on my phone (or tablet) can also go on his. 3 for the price of 1! :trophy: 400 talk minutes, unlimited text and data - $35/month plus $2.something for tax. No "$50/month" crap that Scruit's talking about. Once they flip to 4g I'll look at the plans, upgrade Jr., see how it works, and possibly move my own phone.
  5. sorry, the cb1100 will be here, but not the one in your pic. back to hoping for vapor-norton.
  6. Wait no longer, 3 models went up sometime this afternoon: http://sport.woot.com/plus/gamo-air-rifles
  7. thought: keep the Tercel through the winter, assuming it's still road-worthy. keep it until it costs more to fix than it's worth. advice: IF you buy German or American, find a one/two year old vehicle that has the Certified/Pre-owned warranty from the manufacturer. Will normally extend you to 6 years/100,000 miles. Definitely needed on German cars. I speak from experience, having owned Audi (A6, A8, S5) and knowing the prez of the M-B owner's club. misc. rambling: the newest 4 wheeled vehicle I own is a 2004. My cars/truck have 91,000, 107,000 and 131,000 miles on them. They all look respectable (no major dings, no rust), and they all run fine. I could pay cash for just about any new vehicle except a Veyron, but just can't justify it to myself. But, I'm not your age, and i'm not chaufeuring young women around, either - and we know that even though they shouldn't, they will judge you in part based on what you drive. thought: narrow your choices to 4 (or less) vehicles. test drive one of each. decide which one you want, then find the best deal you can. since you have a running vehicle you should have plenty of time to find a great deal.
  8. on vacation all week, so not 'commuting', but went on an extended ride yesterday. Could have used the liner back in the jacket, but was OK without. Going out again today. This weather is awesome: ER MAH GERD, GLERBERL WERMAHNG! been there. buh-bye gf, period. once a cheater, always a cheater in my book.
  9. setting up is the easy part. teach to use (not just you, but anyone) is the 'challenging' part. kinda like sex, you can read all you want - but until you actually get busy, you've no clue what you're doing.

    Fostered dog

    @scruit: first night in a new place, with new people and new dogs for an abused pup - give him a chance to adjust. besides, you said all his teeth rotted out, so he's gonna gum you to death? give the poor guy a week to adjust, please. he's (probably) not trying to be difficult, he might be scared, confused, etc.
  13. Handbrake http://handbrake.fr Free, as in beer. Open source, gpl license, Mac, win, *nix. As easy as my sister...

  15. link works fine from galaxy s3... iPhone iFail...
  16. have to sign up for e-mail/spam also, looks like it's part of OpticsPlanet, a business with whom I've attempted to do business before and not had a great, or even good experience. yrmv, though.
  17. i am still liking the new crf250l, $4499. cbr250's engine, retuned for more power down low. yes, it's a tad heavy compared to Yamaha's 250, but it's also $2 grand less and looks like it could be a fun little commuter bike:
  18. looks like a heckuva deal for someone. my XD9 Service has been flawless - eats anything. glws!
  19. if the street and the # lanes are both wrong, should be able to fight it and win - assuming you just had an old insurance card and you DO have insurance. might be able to talk to the prosecutor beforehand, point out the errors, and <maybe> avoid having to go to court. maybe. despite my recent encounter and subsequent dealings with deputy chiefs, attorneys, IAD, and county sheriffs, i still think 99% of LEOs are good folks. this one may have been having a bad day.
