  1. don't skimp on the up front costs nor stress too much about the body. bodies come and go and honestly, todays cameras produce IQ that will last you years. buy features, ergonomics and lenses both today and down the road. think "system" vs body.
  2. I have some dogs that kill grass and weeds like crazy :gabe:
  3. would like to discuss further.....text me your number and I'll call you from the car :gabe:
  4. I do through FireFox....never had any CR or related issues. Are you saying there are some things to look out for when installing the add ons?
  5. ^^ This. I drove one recently and even my wife said it was far nicer than the camaro she's been in.
  6. my brother in law is from Japan so I obtained permission from him to say that. He agrees.
  7. Thanks man. No worries. We're rolling forward without delay. I'm Not sure with who or even if they have signed anything as I've been out of pocket for a while and won't be back until next week. On a side note, when I saw your post I initially thought Oh boy...he's pissed about something :no: I appreciate the follow through though.
  8. texting and driving when her Lexus likely has hands free everything. Just fucking call already. I love texting but if I have something to say in the car, I use one of two hands free systems, either Siri or Sync. depending on the car I'm in.
  9. I'm with Aaron but I'll go a little softer and not say kills it, but rather just isn't my style. I never understood it but overall, looks decent. I still like the car.
  10. Some will ask who this "God" is we speak of......
  11. I was thinking the same thing....but then they all look alike :gabe:
  12. Now I understand why they make those tall ugly privacy fences. I'd put one up 6" inside my property line and put a few angry pit bulls on the inside of it. He should also take up shooting and clean a few AK's on the back porch and set up some targets facing that dudes house.
  13. You could have brought yours for us to drool on :gabe:

    Have you called their service/support line? They should be able to direct you to a repair center.
  15. Okay, I have the reception and can chime in on the subject. The Canon Nikon comparison is like splitting hairs between Chevy and Ford. The following is my opinion and while I have owned and shot with both Brands, what's relevant to your purchase is that Nikon will typically offer lower price points on the body but the features are more limited down low. Canon will cost more but offer a bit more. I chose Canon for the main consideration on DSLR's and that's lens selection. Nikon is getting better and while both offer decent quality kit lenses, Canon still has a much better selection down the road, thus once you're on board with their product and expand, you'll have more choices in terms of good glass. I'm not up on all the details regarding specific models but the initial insight I have and yet I'm a bit biased. If you're keeping to a lower budget, I'd highly recommend the Canon T3 or t3i. I'll let you line them up on dpreview.com in their side by side comparison for details on each. If it's your first camera, spend a bit more and get the 18-200 lens. It's a decent lens with all around use from wide angle to moderate distance zoom and an all in one package that's very easy to use and carry around. I've shot with it as my brother in law has one and it works well. Many of the kit lenses will range in the 18-55 then 55-250 range and you'll find yourself switching lenses often if you're just a casual shooter. Both are decent again, for kit lenses, but the 18-200 has IS, is in the same category speed wise and optically speaking too. There, I'm a bit biased but FWIW, you have my thoughts. Don't be afraid of used gear but given you're not buying a $3k camera, just go new. Unless you find a decent 50D or 7D for a good price but then both might be more than what you want to spend now. PM me or hit my cell with any questions.

  17. I wish I would be able to make it but can't do it this weekend. damn!
  18. Kevin's cell. I'll pm you.
  19. This thread needs way more pics Hoping today and tommorrow I'll have some of me and the kids to contribute.
  20. I'm biased on careers but.....if you're able, I'd suggest looking into something like inside sales or customer support. Leads into more transferable skills, pays at or above where you're at now with way more potential, be in a much nicer environment daily and will be much easier on your body short and long term. Just thinking different.
  21. I'd bang the hell out of her so bad, she'd have to quit running.
  22. can't you sterilize the soil between the pavers with some industrial strength stuff? just saying..... I'd get a couple quotes. Looks like you have one already. Call Sam and then perhaps find one more. Check out there process and what their details in terms of pouring it are like.
  23. makes me want a stamped driveway nowwww
  24. Always look at the mom. If you'd hit that, then you're good.
  25. I agree on many accounts. We paid like $200-$250 for our first two and IIRC may be $400 for Xena. Patches was a rescue and all we paid was a $50 donation and saved his life. When we brought Xena home to Ares our male who had lost his matriarch housemate that was 3yrs older than him not long before, he too was older and no doubt had a new found spirit of life. She bought him time and I firmly believe that. He died happy knowing he was a big brother/grandfather to his new friend. Then when he passed Xena took it hard and wouldn't even go off our deck to do her business. She waited for Ares to come outside and couldn't understand where he was. It broke my heart daily to see it. I really think that's why these two get along so well and protect the house as they do. Sometimes scarey to see the two of them work in tandem when a stranger knocks on the door.
