Nice find, dr_bar.

In the interest of being able to keep the northerners at bay, my wife and I mercilessly slaughtered a lot of paper targets and innocent cans yesterday.

My XD45 finally has more than a hundred rounds through it and my AR-15 is starting to get a decent round count. :)

So much for the conspiracy theorists belief that there's no ammo available for the general public... :laughing:

Depends on your definition of ammo. I mean a screwdriver can be ammo as well as an effective weapon should you need it to be....

I also know of about 4 peeps off hand that "make" their own ammo as in they fill the bullets and press them together.

I get to deal with my insurance adjuster and NYPD for the week. NYPD for my accident and also they're checking out our family because my bro wants to be NYPD and I'm in the Forensics Program.

Still in disbelief that my bike got rear-ended and the pieces of my tail section is still scattered on the street along with the mounting brackets...

Later I'm going to take a video of the traffic light because it changes from green to yellow to red in little under a second... but any action I take may hurt our standings in the NYPD...

At least I get to watch House, M.D. that'll definitely cheer me up.


* scratch that, now I got one of my counselors telling me some f*d up news about my status and that I need to go somewhere to regain acceptable social skills. If anyone saw Last weeks Episode of House that's actually how I might end up in November if I follow thru... or risk being kicked out of the program.

I went to work in the sunshine...narrowly avoided being run over by a tractor trailer, then rode home in the rain.

As for the tractor trailer....(Perry Trucking)....

Traffic was moving downhill at 80kmh(50mph)...the overhead warning lights began flashing yellow...I started slowing down for the red light....
In my mirror I saw that the truck was not stopping....Luckily the lane beside me was empty...I quickly moved over and the truck just blew by me and through the red light....
It was obvious he had no intention of stopping.....If I had not moved over, he would have ran me over. He was going too fast to have stopped even if he intended on stopping....

yeesh, not liking this trend of people running a solid red light despite there being vehicles in front of them...

glad to hear you didn't suffer the same fate.

I'd think, living in the city and all, you'd be used to people doing the dumbest things possible, like B2C check your 6...a lot.

I prefer Homer Simpson's take: I'll leave the world the same way I came into it - dirty, screaming and torn away from the woman I love.
