  1. No doubt they have given a shot in the arm for many towns, guess I just hate how they seem to always get their way. Westerville has voted them out 2 different times, and lo and behold they are building a new complex on the South side of town. They have allot of money to throw around, but they are actually doing some nice things to the area and complex they are building over. But many of the folks they attract there......holy shit there are gonna be some weirdos. I guess what bothers me is "how" do they keep their prices so low, and you are correct in saying that we the people are why they continue to be so successful. I still don't like them, and will gladly go to Meijer and pay a bit more instead.
  2. Fuck Wallyworld, I can't stand them and I don't give them my business. They are nothing but big bullies, and I have seen what they have done to my hometown in terms of shutting down all the family business there. Of course the same can be said of Lowes, they put 2 of the local lumberyards there out of business as well. Outer portions of the town has grown, but downtown has turned into a graveyard. Pros and cons to everything I suppose, but Walmart to me is the worst when it comes to not taking no for an answer. They remind me a bit of GE, too big and powerful with allot of clout.
  3. Inexperienced, too much bike, target fixated & panicked.................one seriously lucky squid.
  4. When Obamacare gets going full steam ahead, the number of specialty clinics, Doctor's offices, and small hospitals that will go out of business will be staggering. There will be much fewer options out there, and the lines and waiting periods to get in will be devastating to those that can't afford to wait. Some will benefit, but many will be shit out of luck. Oh and to blame Bush for everything..........don't forget that Clinton was in 8 years prior to that, don't think for 1 second that George W didn't inherit some of that residual bullshit.
  5. There is a difference between their cars in the luxury divisions of Nissan, Toyota and Honda....and it isn't just price. Friend just got a new TSX that no Accord can match in terms of luxury and fit and finish, and not much difference in price between the top of the line Accord either. I think that Lexus does the best at defining the vast difference between them and Toyota models, with Infinity being a close 2nd. I love that FJ cruiser, they look sweet and are very reliable from what I hear. I need a vehicle that won't get under 24 MPG for as much driving as I do, and my Impreza gets as high as 31 MPG on the slab. Subaru's were just named the best all around cars money can buy, but as BTD said I would veer away from the turbo models.
  6. Except for the gas mileage, I would have to agree with you.
  7. New Impreza Outback Sport.....with a 5 speed!
  8. Beautiful bike, you seriously need to keep that. And judging from your signature, you are about to make your 3rd biggest mistake.

    Rain Tires

    100% agree, and I can attest at how good the Pirelli Angels are too.
  10. Yes that is most excellent, especially with some good grated cheese and sour cream on top.
  11. George Carlin called things like that a "near hit", glad y'all are OK!
  12. Sketti with ketchup and butter!!!!!!!!!!!!
  13. They only have a herd mentality, but yes.......space is your friend, so is staying off the slab.
  14. Gander Mountain is not known for good prices that is for sure.
  15. And a dangerous ding dong at that.
  16. Nice find!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  17. Nothing wrong at all with adding to the collection.
  18. Yes......I would buy that 636 in a heartbeat if I were in the market for a pure sportbike.
  19. I would say no, and trigger job is much cheaper if you like everything else about the Sigma. My 2 cents.
  20. Not much "unity" in many unions these days.
