  1. Please expand on that. Are you saying they are the same?
  2. That’s what makes special forces so badass. We got the best flashlights….
  3. The triggers are other worldly good. How the hell such an affordable pistol can have such a trigger blows my mind. I very much want one so I can disassemble it and see how they work.
  4. He is a strange guy. The preseason bravado, the look at me shit. He had to know that the NFL is fully of fast, strong, great players. I mean he can’t be that naive? His lack of maturity is on full display when he gets frustrated
  5. That PA sounds like it is from a 1970’s high school auditorium.

    3D Printing

    What’s the initial investment to purchase everything needed to print something in the 4”x5” size? Not looking for specifics, just a general idea what type of financial commitment it takes to produce small items. Over/inder $5k
  7. Damn you guys are hitting on all cylinders!
  8. I was probably about 30 years old at the time. And for reasons I can’t explain It was one of those times in life where something disappoints you to such a degree it sort of numbs you. Only later do you go through the “I should have said” exercise. It floored me that she pulled that shit. I was the only nephew he had. And we were great friends as well. She would pass a few years later and I have no idea what came of the watch. I did get some of his war memorabilia, and his war time bible. Which I hold in high regard. But, I would be lying if I didn’t admit I wanted that watch more than anything.

    3D Printing

    I don’t know anything about this tech. Is there a commercial possibility for these machines? Or are they only intended for the hobbyist?
  10. Some serious trolling taking place on this thread.
  11. I understand. I was just enjoying the conversation. No disrespect intended.
  12. I’m not saying you’re wrong, only it’s more nuanced. Railroad employees still fall under RRTA’s 30/60 rule. States like Georgia also provide retirement packages for all state employees. They even have provisions to “buy” a year or two to get out early. The same applies to Civil Service employees under their CSRS plan. Add in Management positions within certain companies that are continuing to offer pension plans. Though all companies are different in how they determine whether or not one’s compensation package will include pension monies. And all boomers didn’t walk away with a pension. In fact if you dig into the numbers it’s actually pretty sad how many of my generations rank and file have nothing but SS to help to them through their remaining years.
  13. I was supposed to inherit one of these from my uncle. This is a pre Tag model Heuer. I remember my uncle keeping time on soccer matches with one of these while I was still in school in Germany in the mid 60’s. Fell in love with it the minute I saw it. Drunk ass aunt sent me a fucking Seiko when he passed. I was going to just go out and buy one for myself, but passed when I saw what they go for.
  14. That is actually interesting. By rule I’m not a tequila guy, same with gin. However I enjoy meeting people who know how to take those expressions and can turn them into something tasty.

    Landman

    It’s an entertaining show. In fact I like most of Sheridan’s efforts. Is everything factual? Fuck no. It ain’t a documentary. So far as the beer debate, if it ain’t bourbon I drink this.
  16. I wondered about that. How did his kid not sign at Ohio State? Even if he sucks the added ESPN connection wouldn’t hurt in the current NIL landscape.
  17. How the fuck did a guy named Booger ever land an ESPN gig?
  18. I’m not so sure if 12 is a bad number. I’m old enough to remember the NCAA’s expansion in 1975. Yeah, initially there were snoozers, but it got better. So much so that the Cinderella thing really made it fun to watch. Given time I think this will improve too.
