  1. Hmmm... sounds like I'm best suited to play it safe and get myself a new charger! Thanks for the advice guys!
  2. I'm REALLY thinking fingers drug him out of there, but can't piece together why fingers wouldn't have resurfaced yet...
  3. Ok, so yesterday I was on my laptop when our 8mo old pup blew by me in a full sprint. I had it plugged in and she took the cord with her. I looked down to see the male end of my AC adapter snapped off in the computer's charging port. So, obviously I need a replacement or a fix. My first idea was to see if I could solder it back together. The nature of the break and positioning of the piece that would need to be soldered makes this look pretty impossible. My second idea was to try to track down an inexpensive electrically conductive adhesive or epoxy... Seems that stuff is pricey enough to not be worth pursuing ($20-30, I can probably find a 3rd party replacement for roughly the same price). My 3rd idea was to find a connector from a parts house and attempt to repair the cord (or ideally find a length of cord w/ an appropriate connector so I can just cut, splice, and shrink wrap the two cords together). So I guess my questions are as follows: 1) Does anyone know of a site or store I could possibly find a connector at? 2) If it were to be an online retailer, how would I measure the connector to ensure I was ordering the right size? 3) Am I a frugal idiot that should just accept that I need to blow $30-40 on a 3rd party replacement?
  4. I finally caught up on the past two episodes... DAMN! I guess we'll be seeing Weston's head on a stake this week...
  5. I love me some EoDM YouTube - Eagles Of Death Metal - Flames go higher
  6. Is shooting from a wide pigeon toed stance more tacticooler? I used to be with it, but now what I'm with isn't it, and what it is seems weird and scary to me.
  7. Looks like a fun range toy! What self-respecting gun nut wouldn't like to own a pistol w/ a standard 30rd mag capacity?
  8. That emoticon reminds me of a game I play with my girlfriend sometimes... It's called "Let's see what the creepiest thing I can do without having to sleep alone tonight is".
  9. What no 'Sunday, SUNDAY, SUNDAY!" ???? Cool spots, that sim sounds entirely too awesome to miss.
  10. Awesome pics!

    Glock 19 gen 4?

    Good! I'm not digging the elliptical ones.
  12. Yeah, that's the pack I'm looking at. I've seen it as low as $50 from surplus stores (previously issued of course). It's mainly the access that is so attractive to me, but I've also heard that the load bearing is GREATLY improved over the ALICE packs. Awesome, I'll have to check out these Baltoro's!

  14. I REALLY want to see this thing. Think we'll have to wait for SHOT to see some pics?
  15. Not looking for suggestions on contents of a bug out bag, but suggestions on an actual bag. I'm considering replacing my ALICE pack w/ a different kind of pack. I'm thinking something with zippered access rather than a top loading pack, so I can get to whatever I need, whenever I need it, and rather quickly. I was kind of considering one of the USMC's ILBE packs... Anyone have any cost effective suggestions?
  16. You can check out what is known as "The Nations" in West Nashville. It's primarily a blue collar neighborhood, and it differs from street to street. It's cheap, and it's close to Nashville State.
  17. Sucks they got lousy service, but the menu CLEARLY states there is an auto-grat on large parties.

    Glocks

    Another guess for the G19 and I'm sure the G23 can't be too far behind. As for LEO usage, I'd be inclined to believe that of all issued Glocks, the G22 probably makes up a very substantial portion.

    Dude, I've totally driven by that place a dozen or so times! Probably would have stopped and bought the blood stained one if I had known that chick was selling them...
  22. So, exactly what industry would this be? Coal? Logging?
