  1. I'll be playing on the current volatility and am hoping for lots of attention by both sides, but I'm sorta expecting the worst fears are mostly over.
  2. Thankfully my problems haven't been medical, but I'm right there with you, glad to see 2012 over. May 2013 bring some calm.
  3. Played around a bit with my truck. It handled very well. http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f185/EWhytsell/M35A2/IMG_16281_zps4b46d2a4.jpg

    Business Law..

    Ohio makes starting and handling the state stuff very easy for small businesses. Curious why you'd want to create a business in Delaware? If its for some "asset protection;-)" forget I asked.
  5. Me too, went out and readied my duece and a half. Can't wait to play in the snow with my kids.
  6. Gold has done well in the past 4 years, I'll give it that, but all it really means is that people who bought it and held on to their huge losses since the 1970's finally got back into the "black" and could sell for a profit. Gold is one of those things people who don't know what they are doing invest in because they think its "safe or has no downside" and they tend to buy it at the wrong time. This would be the category I'd put the OP in. He's wanting to buy when its past its peak and highly likely entering a down trend. A few things could cause me to be wrong, but that would have to be another serious economic pitfall like the housing bubble which isn't likely in the next 5yrs. 10yrs out who knows, but I won't be putting my money in gold and I've been a serious trader for the past 15yrs. Personally I use gold and more specifically the gold mining companies as an indicator as to what the "smart money" is doing. You'll typically notice a shift towards gold when the markets are going to get turbulent and a shift away from gold as stocks are regaining an uptrend. At the end of the day its a commodity and just like oil you need to understand the underlying causes of the price movements to fully utilize it as an investment. It doesn't just magically "add value" to your portfolio like the radio commercials claim. You'd be better off finding dividend rich stocks to just buy and forget if your wanting value.
  7. I like my M&P 15. Its the sport model so no forward assist or ejection port dust cover, but I don't see a need for either of those items after firing flawlessly thousands of times. I'd trust it where I'm going to use it.
  8. Mine was making a horrible noise while sitting as well before I removed the front drive shaft. When I got under it, it was obvious though as the CV was jittering a lot. Just say'n
  9. Never seen it done in a parking lot, but pretty normal where I grew up.
  10. Check your front driveshaft, they go bad and do crazy things. Especially if its the CV type.
  11. Your over thinking it. Its just jizz, it won't hurt and you get $600 a day.
  12. I'd just tell them they can drive my duece and a half:-) They'll never ask again.
  13. In my job I go into many types of places all over Central Ohio and there is no where in my region including military installations that can say a guy or two won't be able to get inside and shoot up the place. I don't have any answer and removing the 2nd amendment isn't going to solve it either.
  14. Is there a place I can sign up for this? I get shit on everyday for a lot less, I'd consider it a raise.
  15. I've never dealt with Allens coins other than work stuff. My wife takes loads of coins there that she picks out of peoples deposits at work. Its amazing how many "more valuable than face value" coins she sells to them. Mostly the older quarters and half dollars.
  16. Do you know your family history well enough to know if anyone served in the revolution?
  17. Here's a quick google search on it. http://www.coinfacts.com/colonial_coins/continental_dollars/1776_continental_dollar.htm The one I have is in pretty good condition, but isn't from 1776. Its from the Sentential 1876 and at least its an original copy, even marked with the word COPY. In this form they aren't super valuable, but still go for a good bit considering what most collector coins go for. Can you determine the metal type at all? The heavy pitting in the photos kind of makes me think tin or something vs gold or silver. I think its kinda cool that the coin would have "Mind Your Business" stamped on it. Kind of gives you a clue about the people of the revolution.
  18. Omg thats a franklin dollar. Not good condition but don't restore it. It's worth a good bit. I have one also. I can talk more about it when I get home.
  19. This is the type of chick I'd smash, minus the tats. I just hate tats on a chick.
  20. We just had ours as well. Its always nice to get to hang out with the office crew. Our office is mostly outside sales and field service so no one ever sees each other.
  21. I met a really professional DJ while shooting weddings this season. Sound Impressions - domcaminiti@aol.com http://www.soundimpressionsdjs.com/Wedding.html They were great and had nice equipment.
  22. I always hate when people turn up the lights trying to help me. If I had my way I'd shoot in the dark with nothing but the DJ lights and what I bring. I like to catch the event as it happened and I love DJ's with lasers, strobes, and fog machines. They make for some fun photos for me at a time when I've been there all day and would be starting to run out of steam.
  23. I really like the Makoy Center and Grand Oaks. Grand Oaks has a pretty nice gazebo for outdoor weddings. If I had more details about the wedding I can help more. Things like date, doing your own catering, or hiring it done, etc. Weddings can be nice from any budget point, they just take imagination and people to bring it all together, or just a check book. Either way I got lots of hook ups.
