  1. I'll be coming from Miamisburg. That work? Assuming I get my bike by then. NoBama 2012
  2. Why would retention w the crossbreed be an issue just because you're riding? Still going to be tight against your body and likely Covered w a jacket. Not arguing. Actually curious as I have a CB on the way. NoBama 2012
  3. Just saying that may be why he's asking. NoBama 2012
  4. I already have 4 helmets but I've always liked these. Is the foam still firm or is it starting to dryrot w age? NoBama 2012
  5. If I understand correctly you can't use on certain venues/races if it's past a certain age. NoBama 2012
  6. Haven't gotten a fathers day card or even had it acknowledged in years. Probably since I got full custody. Make you feel better? Doesn't change my belief though. I'm his dad, not his buddy. He's got his mom to coddle him and let him do whatever the f he wants. (which is why I'm in this position in the first place) It's my job to parent, teach responsibility, and accountability. If he lies and proves to be un trustworthy, then he won't be trusted. With that comes loss of freedoms and privileges (phone, tv, Internet etc) Pretty common sense stuff if you ask me. You obviously don't know me, but I am one of the most trustworthy people you would ever meet. But if you lie to me you have lost my trust, and it will take a lot to rebuild it. My son has proven that he lies compulsively. So that is where my distrust (of him or those who lie to me, not everybody like you would like to paint with your broad brush) comes from. Again, pretty much common sense stuff if you ask me. This is me hopefully being polite and Christian like. NoBama 2012
  7. How do you only take 400+ pics in 3 years? I think I took close to that many playing w the Continuous shooting feature when I first got my Nikon D300S NoBama 2012
  8. I am very strict, and I admit my son rebelled. But trust and freedom has to be EARNED. When he would show signs of a level head, be honest, be where he said he would be, then he got free reign. But lie to me, about who you're with, do stupid stuff to get in legal trouble and you bet your ass the leash just got a LOT shorter and I start making surprise visits at your hangout spots, hookup the ip camera that I have left over from the showroom, etc. I'm a firm believer in actions for consequences, and being too soft in my opinion creates a child w an "entitled" mentality that I actually see a little of in this thread. Sorry. This isnt trying to slam U or anyone else. Just a sore topic for me as my son and I are currently not speaking. (his moms the enabler/"buddy" and I'm the strict one) NoBama 2012
  9. I have frequently been accused of being too controlling or strict. But I refuse to be opposite. The parent who doesn't know where his kids are, what they're doing, who they're doing it with, etc NoBama 2012
  10. I've done similar (not w guns) but only because he (my soon to be 18 y/o son) had proven time and time again that he couldn't be trusted. And it was about specific ongoing issues, not so much creating new ones. From a gun safety issue I can maybe see justifying this. I don't know. I mean it's not like if he screws up "the first time" you can ground him. 1st screw up is potentially fatal. Tough call. NoBama 2012
  11. Mind me asking what u paid? Was going to get one but hit an XD9sc instead. NoBama 2012
  12. And you get to look like a Martian riding a sportbike. I like my Contour. NoBama 2012
  13. I was expecting to see bewbees. FAIL NoBama 2012
  14. From the pics it looks like a grand Prix. Electric release button that works anytime (well, w a good battery) NoBama 2012
  15. "SEVERAL drivers side windows". How many windows did it have? Was it a school bus? NoBama 2012

    First gun

    But it's ok for the gun? NoBama 2012

    First gun

    Why is steel a bad thing? Just picked up 200rds at WalMart for $36. Bad for the gun? Why would a range prohibit it? NoBama 2012
  19. What show is this weekend? NoBama 2012
  20. Thanks for the info. I saw the FAQ that addressed transferring your existing LoJack to a new vehicle, but didn't see the one you posted about buying a vehicle w it already on it. Thanks NoBama 2012
  21. Hope it's true, but I have to admit it does have a heavy right bias. NoBama 2012
  22. Do u still sell these? Getting ready to buy a bike w LJ on it. Would like to transfer it. Is this possible? ( from a dealer, contact w previous owner unlikely) NoBama 2012
  23. I think you need a few more bikes. NoBama 2012
  24. Forgot to mention and probably too late now but 5% DOES make it a PITA to drive at night. Backing up, turns in neighborhoods, etc all require me to roll down the windows (minimum drivers window) to see. But I would still do the 5% again. Thought about automating the windows to roll down when car put in reverse, etc:) NoBama 2012
  25. Indy to Dayton if that will help. Just left Indy last night but will be going again next week. NoBama 2012
