    It's here!

    ^^^ That's okay - Rob always gets away with $hit, and Tom gets blamed for it... :banana: <laughs> <lmao>
  2. Mix two colors. Dark Earth the frame, and make the small bits something lighter or darker - like Patriot Brown. Dirt colors are a hell of alot of fun. <thumbsup> Example... >:D
  3. Any idea on the speed (fps) on your load, and on the 208 Hornady? Your load was at sufficient speed to fragment, at the distance you were shooting. The 208 Hornady was not at sufficient speed. This is the exact same thing 5.56 loads do, through short barrels - there's a distance limit that you can depend on for the bullet to fragment, depending on barrel length and load. Through a 7.5" barrel, it's not very far.
  4. Sweet Jesus, I'm crying over here... <lmao>
  5. We need that land in Tejas more than we need that plane right now, bro. I'm just sayin'... <thumbsup>
  6. Explains it all. That character in the movie, "Hoot," is a combination of a couple men in reality, but primarily based off one guy more than the other. The primary real person, I know. There's very, very little about him on the 'net, and that's how he wants it, so trying to find out info about him is pretty much useless. He is one incredible person. <thumbsup>

    Ummmm... Am I the only one seeing this?... <dontknow> <laughs>
  8. DNP has my back. <thumbsup> Request completed. <lmao> I meant to grab some pics last week, but $hit around here went kinda haywire. I'll get them this Thursday and put them in this thread.
  9. Sub or Super? Look at both tables, you crazy Sub-whore... <lmao>
  10. Damn. I was actually wondering about the legality of a "pool buy." If we all chipped in and bought one, how legal would it be to ship it back and forth between 4 or 5 of us, machine our stuff, send it on to the next guy, etc.
  11. If I had a holster that I had to use two hands on, just to get the pistol out of it, I'd throw that piece of $hit in the trash... JMHO...

    Is it me?

    Oh fuk that, it was you the whole time. Nothing more. You have issues... <dontknow> <laughs>
  14. Makes you really fucking think about it, doesn't it...

    Is it me?

    Yes, it's you. ALL you... <lmao>
  16. Five Finger Death Punch. Wrong Side of Heaven.
  17. Todd, it doesn't matter one single bit what that 1911 looks like - YOU BUILT YOUR OWN 1911!!!!!!!!!! :hail: :hethan:
  18. Wish I had the loot right now...
  19. You never, never know. You may need this info one day... <dontknow> http://blog.columbia.com/good-to-know-quicksand/?mid=socm Myth: If you get stuck in quicksand, you will be slowly sucked into a bottomless pit. Fact: Although Hollywood frequently depicts victims slowly disappearing into the quicksand before someone has time to save them, most of the time the reality is much tamer. You can not fully sink into this type of soil. Quicksand is ordinary sand that has become so saturated with water that the friction between sand particles is reduced, making them unable to support any weight. Quicksand most frequently occurs near tidal flats, swamps and marshes, lake shores, and underground springs. A section can be anywhere from a few inches to waist-level in depth. Quicksand can also form after an earthquake releases water from underground reservoirs, causing bridges and buildings to collapse. When you step or fall into quicksand, you cause the sand particles supported by the water to lose their stability and flow below in a liquid fashion, creating a downward pull. Getting out at this exact moment can be tough, and sometimes requires the force needed to lift a medium-sized car—and any thrashing about from the panic that naturally occurs only makes the situation worse. But don’t worry. Even if you do freak out and wave your arms and legs uncontrollably, you will never fully submerge—you just aren’t dense enough (even if you had a full English breakfast). According to a study conducted by the University of Amsterdam, the key in this situation is not to panic and just be patient. If you wait long enough, the sand particles settle and the buoyancy of the mixture will cause you to rise up to the top. And paradoxically trying to lie flat will distribute your weight more evenly, encouraging that buoyancy. So, even if you do end up stuck, feel safe in the knowledge that you are not going to slowly sink until only your hat is left, floating on top of the muck like Gilligan. But here’s a somber caveat: Even though you may not get completely sucked under the sand, it is possible that you can get stuck—and remain stuck when the high tides return, which—you know—is really bad. If your plans include hiking in quicksand-prone areas, think about bringing a hiking pole or stick with you to test the ground before you step on it. After all, you may not only find yourself stuck, you’ll find yourself bored without the wacky hijinks of the Professor and Ginger by your side.
  20. ^^^ I support that message. 100% and then some.
  21. That particular 911 call...
  22. Ah Shits, he did it... <thumbsup>
  23. Initial valve adjustment on that Can-Am at 10 engine hours, on the 1,000cc V-Twin Rotax engine... That's the bulk of the time involved - removing all the plastic "center-hump" that covers the engine, and getting to those valves to check lash/adjust if necessary.
  24. You trying to get the guy divorced, here?... <lmao>
  25. Matt is a freak, too. THAT explains alot. About Matt anyway. Oh, the stories you and I could tell about him. Drunk fighting at the camp fire, getting ridden around in the sand by the Yeti, "losing" his sunglasses - that he threw in the fire the night before. Racing a guy with street tires, in the sand - and it's NOT FAIR! Getting knocked out. Getting up. Then ASKING to be knocked out by a guy he's got in a chokehold... <lmao> It just doesn't end. <laughs> Baked the EOTech (and all my non-metal, plastic parts) at 170 for 2 hours. <thumbsup> Final result - indoor pics at night, with flash, so they suck. I'll get daylight pics on Sunday and get them in here. Precariously posed against a nastyass cactus.
