  1. I guess it's hard to write sarcasm. In theory you can try to sue anyone for anything. It's wether you are protected under the law from being sued. I can try to sue my parents for making me short and ugly but it would never get anywhere.
  2. Look on the bright side. Tax dollars will pay for their medical treatment. Tax dollars will pay for them to be tried an hopefully convicted. And all three will probably sue the gun shop owner for their injuries. It's to bad the gun shop owner couldn't throw a claymore in the back of their getaway vehicle.
  3. I worked at and sold cameras for 6 years. I've shot cannons for about 15 years back to when you actually had to meter on your own. The base lens usually sucks so plan on upgrading to a better one soon. Last I knew the 18-55 still had a plastic rear mount which isn't very strong. I use an 18-70mm and it's great for kids and car shows. Also don't buy more than you need. Bells and whistles are cool but if they are confusing and the pics don't come out well, they are not worth it. There is a company out of NY called B&H. I used to order from them all the time. They also can make different packages if you want a different lens. Good luck.
  4. Mini's are great guns and Ruger's customer service is great. Completely different than AR. If I could only have 1 I would buy the AR.
  5. Congrats on the snip. I had mine done by Dr. Reibel at Central Ohio Urology two weeks ago. He is a gun guy so at least the conversation was nice. Keep the ice packs handy and wear tighty-whites for a while. Letting them hang in boxers can make them sore. They said no sex for a week. Be careful as you can bust your stitches.
  6. Awesome car! Are you going to the trans am nationals next month? You would probably kill in the modified class.
  7. Another vote for Wheel Medic. They treated me well.
  8. Beautiful camaro. Only way to make it better would be a firebird. JK:)
  9. How about a Yoo-Hoo commercial? Great video. Did they make one or two movies with him?
  10. No. What I meant was it is the LEO's responsibility for the safety of the occupant and themselves. Many older apartments don't have pep holes or windows near the doors. The whole situation sucks but I feel the lions share of the blame belongs on the LEO. There are a dozen things the deceased could have or should have done. Not the least of which would of been yelling "whose there?". Even if the cops had lied and said they were from building maintenance this guy may not have come to the door pointing. Trust me the more dead criminals the better. The less we pay for them.
  11. Many moons ago I lived in a s-hole apartment complex. My neighbor banged on my door at 7 am in the dark. All he wanted was me to help him jump his car. He met my beretta. Bottom line - if you don't know who is at your door it is instinctual to either protect yourself or run (fight or flight). The LEO's probably will only get a write up if that. It doesn't matter if the deceased was a saint or not, by not identifying themselves, the LEO instigated the confrontation.
  12. First decide how you are going to carry. Do you want a holster? Are you going to carry in out out of your pants etc. Revolver or semi auto.... Find a range near you that rents guns so you can try it before you buy. IMO I like the Ruger LC9. It's super small and it's about $300. For a little more it's hard to beat a Glock or Sig. Good luck
  13. Anything by Jeffrey Deaver. My favorite if his is The Blue Nowhere. If you want a classic try The Sea Wolf by Jack London. I Recently read Killer Elite by Michael Smith. It's about the history of special forces and talkes about several of the missions in the middle east. If you want to laugh, Drew Cary, Tim Allen and Larry the Cable Guy all have books out. They are worth a read -once. Enjoy.
  14. Several months ago in High Performance Pontiac there was a guy who had over 500k on a early 60's tempest with the 4cyl motor. It was the 389 they essentially cut in half. Very cool.
  15. I went to a catholic high school. One day i was working on this girl on the stairwell after school and got caught by the religion teacher. The best part was I'm not catholic.
  16. Beautiful cars. Any chance you are bringing your trans am to the nationals in Dayton next month? I had a 78 and wish I had never sold it.
  17. I've had two cars totaled that we're not my fault. To help answer question 1, the best thing is to be educated about the car that was affected. Was is a base model or a higher trim package? Spend some time on Kelly blue book (kbb.com) and play with the different options. Know the difference between private party, retail value and trade in. That will be used against you if your not careful. Also check auto trader and craigslist to find the asking prices for similar cars. I would also get multiple quotes from different shops. Quotes can range by thousands of dollars. One last point is most insurance companies have a set point - say 75 percent as the breaking point for if a car is totaled. If its close, try to get it totaled. Driving around in a car like that will cost you resale value in the future. Goodluck.
  18. I have the pro kit on my 89. I put on kyb-gr2 struts to replace the orig. There is a rubber isolator at the top of each spring. Did the shop replace those? I had to get mine from the dealer. There is a certain spot the spring needs to go in to line up right. Otherwise the spring won't compress quite enough and it may explain why the strut is also not quite right. Idk but I ran into that when I did mine. It's just a bitch take apart again. PS: Are you coming to the trans am nationals in Aug? It's a good time.

    Lost power Friday. Aep saying everyone won't be back on till NEXT Saturday. My neighbor is disabled and they won't even take his calls. Really sucks.
  20. I always go see them at 161 and Busch blvd Friday and sat night. Bummed I'll miss it this year.
  21. Sorry but I'm one of those people that keeps all the old stuff. Except for some wear items that were dead, I have all the orig parts off my car. Do you have a fbird? Are you going to the trans am nations in Dayton in August?
  22. Sorry but I'm one of those people that keeps all the old stuff. Except for some wear items that were dead, I have all the orig parts off my car. What color is your gta? Are you going to the trans am nations in Dayton in August?
  23. I have a complete t56 swap that is going in the firebird hopefully next month. My car only has 61k on it so the motor still runs strong. Thanks
  24. Those pics are a little old but you get the basic idea. Ive removed the ac (the right way) with an ac delete box and added headers. I can load pics of my suburban, and bike tomorrow. The suburban is a 78 and is orange. Subtle it is not.
