  1. interesting idea with the extension cord
  2. I give a fuck, evidently. It's not about me or you running redlights, it's about other idiots being dangerous with their cars. In my hometown of Middletown, it's often downright dangerous. A lot of the lights are camera lights (tons of them, in fact....they're making a fortune off of them) I'm hoping these don't become more and more popular in the state...and hopefully this law will prevent a few. Other idiots on the road can be scary when they realize they're passing under one of these lights near a yellow (or not even near a yellow...). You never know when some dumb blonde is going to lock up her brakes 50 feet in front of you because the light ticked yellow right in front of her... Semis and other vehicles with heavy loads that can't slow easily have also been dangerous....rear-end accidents in some of these towns have skyrocketed Bad conditions (rain, snow, ice, fog) and other variables aren't taken into account by the camera....etc etc
  3. I was poking around the system at the statehouse today...and saw a bill that is getting a lot of support....which makes me happy (house bill 30 if anyone is interested) There's tons more info on it. Only around 7 cities have them in Ohio. Including springfield, middletown, columbus, toledo and a few others. I'm from Middletown...and live here in columbus most of the time. SO, I hate these damned things. Estimates say that it might cost Columbus $50,000 to post signs about these things....so maybe they'll get rid of them? (probably not) And the stigma of having that sign on the highway as you enter a small town might be enough to make some cities think about not having them....(I hope?) Here's the text: It basically requires towns to post on all highways that they are a town that has red-light photo cameras....at every exit into the town (to inform people) It passed the house almost unanimously..and they're having hearings on it next week for the Senate, if anyone was interested enough to go Section 1. That section 4511.092 of the Revised Code be enacted to read as follows: Sec. 4511.092. (A) As used in this section: (1) "Local authority" means a municipal corporation, county, or township. (2) "Traffic law photo-monitoring device" means an electronic system consisting of a photographic, video, or electronic camera and a means of sensing the presence of a motor vehicle that automatically produces photographs, videotape, or digital images of the vehicle or its license plate. (B) No local authority shall use traffic law photo-monitoring devices to enforce any traffic law until after it has erected signs on every highway and freeway that is part of the state highway system and that enters that local authority. The signs shall inform inbound traffic that the local authority utilizes traffic law photo-monitoring devices to enforce traffic laws. The signs shall be erected within the first three hundred feet of the boundary of the local authority, and the local authority is responsible for all costs associated with the erection, maintenance, and replacement, if necessary, of the signs. All signs erected under this division shall conform in size, color, location, and content to standards contained in the manual adopted by the department of transportation pursuant to section 4511.09 of the Revised Code and shall remain in place for as long as the local authority utilizes traffic law photo-monitoring devices to enforce any traffic law. Any ticket, citation, or summons issued by or on behalf of the local authority for any traffic law violation based upon evidence gathered by a traffic law photo-monitoring device before the signs have been erected is invalid.
  4. probably worth $40 I'd probably give $40 if you deliver (campus area) ....$10 in gas to go pick up the sucker
  5. you mean, harbor freight? I don't know if harbor freight carries that model anymore - they have a larger one for 79.99 I think that was 49.99 a while back (fyi)
  6. got a model # or picture of the sandblaster? portable sounds interesting I've seen several different types
  7. bah...no battle....BAH I will be unhappy.
  8. I suppose I'm the only one that doesn't have a clue what 'HIN' or 'DK' means So, the meet is rather confusing to me...and I suppose it's nothing I'd bring a '66 GTO to ...probably because I've never owner a car newer than '68
  9. I want a damned war...and Cylon ass kicking I don't want any of this "cylons have thier own problems and go away" bs I don't want to hear their gods have accepted humans... I don't want them deciding to go some other way and ignore humans I simply want some big-ass wars with people from Earth helping Too much to ask?
  10. right-o was a model 65 i rather like it
  11. Paint it Black - Rolling Stones Sky - Ra The Red - Chevelle 'Till i Collapse - Eminem Mudshovel - Staind I miss - Sunna (talk about a messed up song) so, it's 6...that came to mind pretty quickly
  12. I'd take it, depending on what 'minor defects' turns out to be If it's a scratch or wear or something silly - I wouldn't care If features don't work or things are broken? Details? let me know, but I'll get first in line on this I've been looking for something a little more thin than what i've got
  13. ...hoping they find earth and we're the same warmongers we've always been...and we crush the Cyclons with the newfound allies that would be badass In reality, it'll probably be some bullshit about the Cyclons finally realizing that we're important to them (just as worthy of living in their god's eyes or something) and they call a truce, after we find earth.
  14. Someday, I need to buy about 13 9/16 deep wells I swear I never have any of them...and they're the only socket i end up needing
  15. DMH is the guy in cincinnati that makes them 3 or 4 - year warranty (can't remember - doesn't matter because I don't think they'll break) (noone makes a lifetime warranty) DMH is the only one that will warranty it for street or race driving If you notice, QTP says 'race' only and street driving will void your warranty DMH is the guy that started it all...making them out of his garage years ago (he now has a huge CNC machine) Buy QTP's and you'll replace them 2 or 3 times in 4 years I've had 2 sets of DMH that I've never had to replace (except for a log i hit once...that broke one in half....and DMH replaced that for free) There's no comparison in quality. Holding both in each hand would show you - the DMH are twice as heavy and use much better components e-mail DMH directly and see if he'll give a big of a discount - he usually does (don't tell him you drive a Ford or Chebby - he likes Pontiacs)
  16. dammit 6 shot means it's not a model 66 model 66 is 7 shot ...no idea what it is, but i'll keep reading and call you tomorrow morning around noonish
  17. no kidding everyone online just says they're difficult to ID 6 or 7 shot cylinder? I'm thinking model 66 - sure looks similar... I suppose I'll pass...but it'd be a fun one to shoot some .38's out of
  18. what is this thing, a model 66? I can't find much info on ID'ing these
  19. back at ya about the model #
  20. pm sent on model # also, offer Can you weld? I've got a few pieces I'd like welded up - maybe make a package deal - i'd pay the $250 if you stuck it alltogether (custom log exhaust manifolds i've made - passenger already done, just need driver's done)
  21. i go to the one on high street with regularity
  22. cash is fine no hurry on picking them up i'll be around wednesday - depends when you're at the statehouse might be at the law school on high street or my house near high and lane - depends on the time I'll pm you a # and you can call whenever you're in the area - we'll hook up eventually
