  1. Funny this thread came up. My dad bought one today. Now I need to convince him to throw in a matching PS90.
  2. Anything you can do to more accurately control your BG levels, the better off you'll be in the long run. Hyperglycemia wreaks havoc on your cells and will fuck you in the future if you don't get it under control. I have minimal experience with them (not a diabetic), but I say go for it. BTW, what's your wifey's latest Hgb A1c?
  3. -Locks changed = no one's walking straight on it. -Alarm is set to call the police in 15sec; a truck alarm won't. -Who actually pays attention to car alarms? really. -Truck has windows for all to view, not just the main guys. Oh, and I hear glass is easy to break. -What would he chain them to? -Dad works at a nuclear facility (not that you would know that). No firearms allowed, at all. An empty casing found in the vehicle will get you fired, and they do random searches. -My dad has a lot of guns and a small Durango. They'd take up too much room. I think that should be sufficient. Now explain your simple process.
  4. I get tired of the massive speed bumps that seem to crop up in the middle of the highways. I can feel the whole ass end of my truck shift to the side when I hit one of those things.
  5. I was kind of thinking the same thing. Shit, once you're 100ft off the ground, you might as well go the rest of the way. Death is death.
  6. It's called tile, I believe, because it used to be mostly made out of clay. Most of the modern stuff is plastic. It's just a corregated tube with holes in it. Looks like this: http://www.borotek.com/photogallery/photo00011845/Drainage.JPG Actually, you do. You should form a sort of grid with it. Farmers do it to keep their crop fields from turning into ponds. You'll sometimes hear it called field tile. If I were going to do it (especially on a new house), I'd tie my downspouts in with it as well. Depending on how long you plan on staying, you might not want to get too elaborate ($$$) with it though. Here's the general idea: http://i50.tinypic.com/vhvmhe.jpg
  7. No, I don't expect it to have as much action, but it does need to have some. This soap opera shit won't cut it for long. And I find SG:U to be pretty dull as well. I wish they'd have kept SG:A going instead.
  8. Putting in drain tile is cake. As wnaplay said, plan it out first. Call OUPS before you start. Figure out how many feet of tile you need, as well as how many/type of connections you will need. The tile usually comes in 100 or 250ft rolls; 4" tile will suffice. Once you've got that figured out, make your life easy and go rent a walkbehind trencher. If your yard is flat, I believe the rule of thumb is to drop an inch every 8-10'. Start out shallow, because there's really no reason to sink it deep. If your yard has a natural slope to it (sounds like it doesn't if it's holding water), then you can leave your depth set since the yard will have a natural downward slope. When I put them in, I just tap the elevation lever on the trencher every 10' or so. It doesn't have to be exact; just keep the water flowing downhill. If I were going to do it, I'd buy leach tile and turn it upside down (holes facing up). And if I felt the need to do so, I might cover it with some gravel to keep dirt out. Anyways, you can probably rent a W/B trencher for ~$100/4hr, ~150/day. The faster you can get it done, the more money you'll save...obviously. Tile will run you about $.40/ft We sell tile (and rent trenchers) at my stepfather's company and the prices I posted were what we charged, just to give you an idea.
  9. Sounds good. I'm pretty sure I have Friday off.
  10. You go to the cabin this weekend? Also, what'd you find out on your camera research?
  11. I watched it (when it was on months ago, and Friday) and so far, I'm not impressed. I know it was the pilot, but it had better kick up the action or I'm done with it. BTW, SyFy has gone to shit. Whoever runs that channel is ruining it.
  12. Right. I like this idea. I'm going to pass it on to him. Each gun is in an individual case, so maybe if he locked the cases, and then chained all of the cases to something solid, it might work. Any thief can get something if they have enough time. The goal is to give them as little time as possible.
  13. Something heavy. The heavier it is, the less likely you are to feel the recoil. Bore axis and the type of autoloading system the gun uses come into play as well, but not quite as much.
  14. I wondered that as well. Like a safe deposit box......for guns.
  15. Just last night. This guido bitch was running her mouth, and all up in my shit while I was trying to get my drank on, so I turned around and busted her in her chipmunk looking jaw. Bitch got fist pumped. Game over, son.
  16. He's on the first floor, so it's kind of a good/bad thing. 50-60 gun safes usually weigh somewhere between 6-900lb, depending on the quality; not anywhere close to being easy to move. In fact, I think most places will deliver them for you as well. Bolting it down would be a no brainer if he did get one. His problem is, he skips all over the country. He travels light, because he travels often. He CRAMS everything he needs into a little 4x8 enclosed trailer and his Durango. When he moves, those are both strategically packed to the hilt. Getting a safe in there as well is not do-able without making 2 trips. Still, I keep telling him he needs to get a safe of some sort and bolt it to the floor and walls. If he has to sell it for 1/2 price before he leaves, then so be it. It's still worth the insurance.
  17. I want to know how long it takes for him to get up there in a balloon.
