  1. It is pretty fun there. We helped them with some of the grand opening of the new feature. Guns are pretty cool. You can change out what kind of gun you have in the settings, sniper, battle rifle, shot gun, and so on. Battle rifle seemed to be the best. Mostly they run a capture the flag and team death match. Accuracy is good and head shots while looking through the optic are pretty much the way to go.
  2. No good deed goes unpunished.
  3. Class is Sunday. I just had 2 seats open up. If you want in the class, PM me. Next class dates will be posted soon.
  4. I appreciate the posts guys. Ryan, I moved away and the 750 miles made it difficult to keep in touch when there wasn't shared effort. I know I tried numerous times to re-engage our friendship. I feel terrible for this happening. But realistically, without me actually being there, I don't know what happened. Doug, I can't say how hard it is to do what you have. I haven't been through it, but I helped one of our guys with getting in to see someone this year. I has made all the difference. As guys, we think we don't need to seek help. But there's nothing wrong with it and it makes a huge difference. Glad to hear things are going well for you.
  5. Sometimes life is too much. A collection of bad decisions and circumstances. You feel like you are doing all you can, but nothing seems to come together. You search for that closeness, that bond of friendship and family, even if your brought up around tough times. You try to fit in and make new friends, to create that bond, but it's not there. You feel like you try and try. You don't see the people around you that do care. You over look their guidance and love, and they see it as you pushing them away, yet you struggle more and more. All the signs are there, substance abuse, rehab, divorce, more substance abuse, rehab and then even more abuse. Seeing the ex wife get engaged on Christmas was likely too much to bare. The build up of your feeling let down, embarrassment, and the feeling of failure have overwhelmed you. Last night, my best friend from High School passed away at 40 years old. I wrote the above, because I feel his situation is not unique. It is preventable. But, I also understand there is only so much you can do. My hope is, you folks read this and have the ability to help someone you know who is struggling with life's hurdles. Last I saw him, he was at his house, passed out in the middle of the day from pills. I woke him up to make plans to hang out the next day, but told him he needed to text me in the morning to let me know he was ready, and I would pick him up. He never did. And from there never replied to my calls or text. That was August of 2012, and then for months after I never heard from him. He had tried to hurt himself before, when we were in high school. We hear about how the holidays are tough times for people, but maybe we never hear about someone hurting themselves that we know. Before today, I had never known of any instance of this happening. I had always been told in our military briefings that this time of year was high for suicides. There is a lot of living to do out there folks. Other people can't be the fix for your problems, but many are willing to help if the person is helping themselves. If you are struggling with things, reach out to someone.
  6. Good to have them there when you bought the car. That saves about $1200. $400 for 60hp is fun all day, everyday.
  7. Drew and Cory took good care of me very well up there. Those are great daily driver numbers. What's the power to cash ratio to go E85? I mean, do you have to drop $1500 more for 40ish wheel HP? What is the life expectancy of current/ stock parts with the added power? This is always my outlook I struggle with.
  8. I'm sure the value of training can out weight inconvenience of being up early. I hope to see you in a class soon.
  9. PM's, posts, text and emails have all been replied and the class list updated. This class is full. I have 6-8 people for the next class, which my be a Saturday class in January. Dates are still being reviewed. If you are interested, please PM me.
  10. So much Mercia in here, I'm about to pop a freedom boner.
  11. We were in the same situation. Before training, our dog was terrible. I can not express enough, how valuable the training is. We dropped him off and 10 days later he was amazing. Once we were all on the same page, he was happier and so were we. I understand with other pets that this is an immediate issue for you. But, if funds aren't the issue, and you even like this dog a little, call my trainer. Allison can fix your issues. Then, it's better for the dog and your family. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/B05FEC43-5997-4F99-B720-4806E7EE90EF_zpsxqzpqzlt.jpg
  12. Marcum K9 740-243-1251. Allison is the owner and trainer. Shepard's and Shepard mixes are her specialty. We sent ours to her 10 day training. Many CR members have been to my house and seen how CPL Murphy is. He is one of the most obedient dogs I have seen. Prior to the training, we were having all the typical issues. I did't have the time to train him the way he needed, so the 10 day session was perfect. It will run you $1000 + the training collar. It is the best $1000 I have spent.
  13. Last year you made a post about getting in shape. EVERY FUCKING PERSON SAID" STOP DRINKING POP". Now, you say it's only 1-2 a day. That is a metric shit ton of fatten me up, I'm a fat kid, sugar. You had offer after, offer to help you with working out and eating right. Now, you're posting this asking someone to help get you some fatboy swag. You're like the chick who is dating an asshole that mistreats her, but yet keeps going back to the same asshole. "He said he wouldn't hit me anymore full strength, and only in the calf". "I think we can work it out". Quote: Joe Rogan. STAAAAWWWUP !
  14. Same here. This is likely what I would do. Don't use credit to shop, but I like the use of debit credit card.
  15. I went to Costco tonight to check them out. Good evaluation from those who have posted. Better, better, and better. Went to the membership counter and went over the options, and I was ready to go. Buuuuuuuut, then it happened. Cash, check, AMEX, or debit card and pin are the only ways to pay. I haven't used my debit pin in forever, and we use Mastercard. This is the only time we have ran into this. I'm not sure I want to change up how I handle money, just to shop some place different. They did say in April they would be accepting Visa, but that doesn't change things for me. I walked through and checked for the things I normally get at Sams, and compared pricing. From what I saw, Costco was a little less than Sams.
  16. Spent the day there with the people from work. They took care of us very well. That place is begging to be my retirement job. We were off to a rough start today, but they smoothed it out with a small heat mix up in their system. Staff was considerably better than what I saw last year, which is why I stopped going. It was fun and 100+ of out people had a great time. Modern laser warfare: It's neat. go with people who will move their ass and run with a purpose. Just like any other laser tag, you get some kills and you get killed. Sometimes you're pissed and sometimes you are still alive. Good recharging station function to get you back in the game. Several different game options; free for all, team death match, capture the flag, defend the base, and so on. Guns are accurate and have several weapon types to choose from in the settings.
  17. Thanks, Clay. I call dibs on the .410 when you want to sell it.
  18. Best shotgun deal I have ever had was the State Highway Patrol turn ins. I picked one up at Vances 4-5 years ago for about $250. I blast the hell out of it and butt stroke trees until they fall with it. It's a great club too.
  19. I don't have one for sale, but some things to think about are written below: The easy answers are a Remington 870 or a Mossberg 500. Both come in so many configurations you'll likely be confused quickly. I have had both and lean toward the 870 over the 500 largely by the location of the safety and my comfort in employing the weapon. Both function very well and have an aftermarket offering that is just as vast as the option configurations of each model. Both are in a close price range and can be had new from $279 on sale, to $600+ for certain configurations. At that low a range, it is almost worth it to by new. There are many others out there. They will be limited in aftermarket options. Their price will either be so cheap, I'd be scared to shoot it. Or so pricey, I don't think I'm interested. I may suggest looking at a 20 gauge if the lady of the house may use it. I got one for my wife, because the 12 gauge was too heavy and the recoil intimidated her. She will shoot the hell out of the 20 gauge though. Also, if there are other people in other rooms, kids maybe, with the 20 will come less over power and with certain ammo choice, you can reduce the over penetration of going through or past your intended target. Personnel favorite without dropping big $ is. http://www.vanceoutdoors.com/products2.cfm/ID/93027 I picked min up for $389 Versatility of round options and capacity, coupled with light weight, have made this one of my favorite shotties under $500.
  20. Thank you for having us in mind for your friends. I do have a FB page set up. However, I have not put it out yet because I still need to keep class demand somewhat down. I know that sounds odd. We hate letting people down, and with our current other obligations, that has almost happened a couple times. I guess this is a good problem to have, with people wanting to come to us for training. So, we posts classes as we can schedule them. Online schedule posting and the FB page are all being put together for when more classes can be offered. In the mean time, CR and word of mouth are the only two ways to get our info. Please feel free to have them email me at besafeccw@gmail.com. I will get them taken care of. No problem. Please let me know if there are any issues and I will work what I can to trouble shoot them.
  21. I can neither confirm nor deny my actions. :lolguy:
  22. Thanks for all the input. I have been with Sams for over 10 years. I'm going to walk through a Costco to be sure, but I'm pretty much going to see a murder in there, to not switch to Costco. There have been a few issues stacking up and, now I'm done and ready to shop elsewhere.
  23. What are your experiences and why do you stick with one over the other? Or, why did you drop your membership?
  24. Welcome. I'm in Westerville often. I'll keep an eye out for your car.
  25. GPK Started out with a bang and a big following. They went through some management change over in a bad way, because the original crew were good racing people. Next management buried GPK with poor service and letting lazy employees work there. They are now on revamp 3.5 with marketing and management. And, things are looking up. Track prep is a huge helping factor to good lap times there. Fresh oil down, had been where my best times have come. Although, they have acted like they don't like to prep the track often. It's used oil, and there is a ton of it, put that shit down every other race. Give me a sticky track, or better tires. Track temp is a direct reflection of time of year and outdoor temps, therefore, so is grip. Best times are on a day to day basis, and within a 3 hour window in my opinion. Summer months and a warm track are going to give better times. If you just suck at driving, then you're 3+ seconds off the lead anyways. But, if you are chasing one second or less differences in lap times, the above factors are the largest issues, IMO. The cars for the most part have been good. I have had my issues with them and have been pissed off getting off the track. Henry, at the front desk, is the only OG guy in the building and has credited me when there have been kart issues. I stopped going because of management and the lack of urgency to get people on the track. I went a month ago and it was just as fun. I'll be there Sunday for a xmas party for work and I am looking forward t it. According to stats, I have finished first 99.67% of the time, of 60+ races. Co-workers are going to get a beating. As for Buckeye raceway. Before they were even open, they came out shit talking GPK and that their track was going to be so much better. When your karts are a very different platform, and then they are even slower (which they originally claimed would be faster), that turned me away from ever going there. Front what it looks like the track is shorter, the run time is about the same and several factors of what many like in driving are not there, like throttle response.
