  1. Man, I remember the days of doing upgrades with just a simple notification of the outage. Nowadays, you have to sit through change control meetings, explain your change to people who have no concept of what you are going to do, and silently hope that they don't add random hoops to jump through. I swear one of these days someone is going to require me to slaughter a chicken or goat or something.

  2. I always like seeing how the media portrays these events. As I occasionally teach ccw classes, my big fear is reading about a former student having to use lethal force.

    One of the guys I occasionally teach with had a student involved in a lethal force incident. I believe it was one of the first ones in the state after the ccw law had passed. It was a clean shoot, but that doesn't mean that some idiot reporter won't publicy crucify you for it.

  3. We need to have an OHriders gun day at teh range.....Or a family field somewhere. Give me reason to use an AK-47

    I might be able to arrange something at my cousin's hunting property later in the year. 350 acres or so in SE Ohio. Tannerite is not only welcome, but encouraged there.

  4. i havent on my bike yet i would prefer on my hip since i use a fobus holster and can draw it quickly. I think for me inside the waistband may be uncomfortable on a sportbike but i have not tried that yet. So i thought about a shoulder holster for inside my jacket but would have to get to cover fast or shall i say faster since my draw would be longer to be able to readily use it. So would like to hear some ideas from you ccw bikers especially those who ride sportbikes.-

    P.S. I will also ask some of the guys i shoot IDPA with during our next meet.

    Ahh, fobus. Fobus doesn't work well for me in terms of concealment, unless I'm wearing a large sweatshirt. I do use it for long drives and such. I'm IWB all the way. I think IWB or a high ride leather belt holster would be a far better option for concealment on a bike, especially with a riding jacket. I never really carried last year on the bike. I always complied with the law and kept it in a locked tank bag.

  5. no i mainly keep to the second saturdays of each month....went out to Briar Rabbit once and would like to go back out there again soon.

    Briar Rabbit is a good time. I used to hit their action pistol shoots pretty regularly when I lived in Columbus. I only made it down there last year for the Steel Challenge. Definately didn't bring my A game.

    There is a big all steel shoot on May 26th that my buddy is running. Over towards Stuebenville I think. He makes some pretty sweet steel targets, including an automated system that is pretty much "whack a mole with a pistol."

  6. Not really. The bike had been dropped a couple times by the previous owner, so it had some scrapes and scratches anyway. Only major damage is a bent handlebar ($33) and some cracks in the fairing. A coworker has access to a "plastic welder" that will repair ABS plastic, so the fairing isn't even that big of a deal. It was more embarressing than anything else. Years of being thrown in shuai chiao paid off though, perfect breakfall without injury.

  7. I'll be spending my weekend fixing the damage from my 10mph lowside while delivering the bike to a buyer last week. Then I get to start the process of finding a new buyer! If I'm lucky, I'll have a new ride by June.

  8. Cisco rocks. Working on my CCNA right now.

    The new ASA firewalls are pretty damned well thought out I have to admit. I'm 1/5 of the way through my CCSP. I'll probably schedule my SNRS test sometime in the next 2 weeks. Definately get the Sybex CCNA book if you haven't already.

  9. http://www.freebsd.org/

    FreeBSD owns OpenBSD any and every day.

    Oh yeah, Mac OS X is FreeBSD........ :thefinger:

    I wouldn't go that far. From a security perspective, the code auditing that goes into openbsd is the best in the opensource world.

    FreeBSD is fine for sissies that don't want to go through excrutiating pain to get their services running or code to compile.

    I just migrated our network from openbsd based firewalls to cisco. While I did like openbsd, it was a giant pain in the ass to admin.
