  1. We put fresh garlic in everything. Also, had not heard I this until recently, but I made my wife some "black pepper tea". Used the french press but instead of coffee used a teaspoon or so of ground black pepper. Worked very well as a decongestant and helped her get back on her feet. We try to educate ourselves about as many herbal remedies as possible and treat the doctor as the "last option" for anything we can.

  3. In honor of my 1000th post, figured that I would post these: WooHoo! Sent from my iPhone using [url=http://tapatalk.com/m?id=1]Tapatalk[/URL]
  4. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ETHVNSS/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00ETHVNSS&linkCode=as2&tag=55602-20 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002MUG0E6/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B002MUG0E6&linkCode=as2&tag=55602-20 Found this today. As shown above, there are quite a few different versions marketed of this device. I feel it'd make a great supplement to any firestarting kit. It should be very durable. It should also have unlimited number of uses as long as you have proper sunlight. It'd be a great substitute for strikers/lighters/matches/etc when it could be used, allowing your consumable items to last that much longer. Anyone have any experience with these?
  5. Just came from there and there was a guy running around talking about Glock 7's.   Sorry, I had to.
  6. Sophomore year in high school the guy behind me had some habaneros. In a nutshell, I ate one. Didn't have any milk or bread to eat. Just say there for the entirety of the burn and tried to appear normal. I must have gotten a bit of the oil on my hand because my face started burning.   Overall, the initial burn wasn't that bad. I sat through the class and was mostly ok. It was the next few days that the burn was the worst.   Coincidentally, I was sitting next to my wife at the time, just didn't know it yet.   I love hot stuff, but it doesn't "agree" with me much anymore. Some spices are ok, but then sometimes even less "spicy" things tear me up.

  8.   Hey! TGO wasn't created by the same people that did the ACA website!
  9. You could theoretically do a pricematch on this one:   http://swfa.com/Aimpoint-PRO-Patrol-Rifle-Optic-Red-Dot-Sight-12841-P53892.aspx   SWFA: 422.06 Shipped LAPG: $356 Shipped   Difference = 66.06 *110% = 72.666   422.06 - 72.666 = 349.394   Theoretically SWFA would sell it to you for that price if they'll 110% pricematch it.
  10.           I've been to the Brainerd Army Store several times. I always enjoy going when I'm on that side of Chattanooga. I will typically spend $10-$20 while there. They do have a lot of genuine surplus items. The downside is that they are slightly more expensive than I'd like them to be. I haven't been to that many surplus stores, but this is my favorite so far. Most of the other shops simply buy up a lot of VooDoo Tactical stuff and lots of Frost Cutlery knives. Brainered has quite a selection, and it'd be difficult to get in and out in under an hour if you genuinely take a look at everything. Be assured that their selection is much more vast than what is shown on their website.
  11.   WooHoo!
  12. Not belittling the loss of anyone's child, but 1000 car deaths a year in Tennessee is like a Sandy Hook happening every single day in this state alone. Let's ban automobiles if it will save JUST ONE CHILD. And actually, it would save at least one child...probably every single day or the year.

  13. I cook almost exclusively on cast iron skillets. I love them. Got two skillets I use regularly, unsure of the make. I also got this today from the Wife. She's awesome like that.   http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00022OK2A/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00022OK2A&linkCode=as2&tag=tecstu-20   She also got me one of these:   http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0087UYR1S/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0087UYR1S&linkCode=as2&tag=tecstu-20   Typically all that is needed to clean out the skillets after cooking is a bit of oil and a paper towel. However, bacon and other things sometimes leave a gunky/sticky residue of fats/etc. This "scrubber" is very good at getting it off, and supposedly won't pull off your seasoning as bad as something such as steel wool. It seems that there are many, many people that all agree that they love cast iron, but start researching how to clean it and you will find 10 different people that will all tell you that the other 9 people are wrong.   Typically, if what I am cooking does not stick at all, I just wipe the pan out with a paper towel and then apply a very small amount of oil. If it sticks a bit (meat or cheese, etc), I find that taking a very small amount of water to the hot pan will most of the time "melt" the gunk. Then a paper towel will wipe it right out.   This is what I've been doing for quite a while now, and most foods do wonderfully well in there. How do you all clean yours?
  14. http://www.amazon.com/l/8192265011/?_encoding=UTF8&amp%3Bpf_rd_i=2441323011&amp%3Bpf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp%3Bpf_rd_p=1705379682&amp%3Bpf_rd_r=1T3A64BX9BT9W4YAVQ12&amp%3Bpf_rd_s=left-2&amp%3Bpf_rd_t=101&amp%3Brh=n%3A8192265011%2Cp_6%3AATVPDKIKX0DER&ascsubtag=[type|link[postId|1488615931[asin|8192265011[authorId|5722086298840843334&camp=1789&creative=390957&linkCode=ur2&tag=55602-20   Amazon is offering free one day shipping on lots of products. I'm looking through right now for any last minute purchases. Looks like you have until 9:00PM PST. Just saying...
  15.   I would guess my Dad would give your Dad a run for his money. Now that I'm out on my own and renting, there are so many things I'd want to do but since I am renting I feel so restricted. I decided just to be patient another year or two and buy my own house.
  16. http://www.foxnews.com/tech/2013/12/19/my-secret-santa-was-bill-gates/   That would be quite the surprise. Too bad he didn't take part for the TGO SS! Registered MG's for everyone!
  17. http://carmatech.net   I'd like to give one of those a go.
  18. Also, a Raven Concealment Phantom LC holster pairs beautifully with that light. It's mine and at least a few others' EDC setup.   http://www.rcsquickship.com
  19. I'm going to be the 4th to say...Surefire X300 Ultra:)   However...I wouldn't pay $209 for it...   Currently: $183.75 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00999CBJ6/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00999CBJ6&linkCode=as2&tag=55602-20   That's where I bought mine...A+ service as expected from Amazon. Worth every single penny. I actually have been thinking of purchasing another one at that price (I actually did pay about $220 for mine at the time I purchased it).   Order history shows I paid $229.49 roughly a year ago. That's a savings of $45.74! Trust all of us, you won't be disappointed.
  20.   In such, it'd be better to in some way pay off the vehicle and then sell it? That's easier said than done;)   If someone was to meet me at the credit union, I would assume that would remove nearly all risks that the buyer would be concerned about?
  21. Can you explain what you mean by that?   Luckily I haven't been too foolish. The car is the only debt (except for the revolving credit card debt that gets paid off each month) that I have. My YNAB's looking pretty good right now. The number two problem is finding a vehicle I'd like.
  22. Last year on 9/11 I purchased went into debt on a 2012 Ford Fusion. It's a great car. However, a few months afterword, I really got into the "debt-free" mindset and living within your means. I now have one of my topmost goals to purchase a house as soon as possible. So, here are the facts:   2012 Ford Fusion SE (~35,000 Miles) Indebted $10,745.70 at 3.24% Payments are currently at $230 KBB Puts it at $11,919 (fair) to $14,019 (excellent) I'd say it is somewhere between good and excellent It's a great vehicle, but after purchasing I realized that financially speaking I should have put more down (I put down roughly $800, the value of my trade in) and probably purchased a less expensive vehicle. Now, I've been more than doubled up on payments for a while now (making $500 payments instead of $230). I can have this vehicle paid off in likely a year and a half if I set my mind to it. However, instead of doubling up on payments I would rather divert that money towards the house fund. I do obviously need a vehicle to drive. What I am tempted to do (and would instantly do if it were easy) is find a reliable vehicle in the $5000-$7000 range. Assuming that I could get at least $12,969 (average between fair and excellent) for my Fusion, I'd have at least $2,224 to put down towards a "new" cheaper vehicle. If I could find a reliable but slightly older SUV for $8,000 or so, I could roughly come out owing $5000 instead of twice that. That appeals to me for several reasons!   However, I've never sold a vehicle I owe money on. It is currently owned by the local credit union. I suppose I could sell private party and then payoff the loan, and then give them the title once I receive it, right? But then I'd have to find someone willing to not only trust me but to work with me during the likely several weeks long process. I could, I suppose, take it to a dealership but that'd leave a sour taste in my mouth but it would probably be the easiest.   What are you all's thoughts? Mainly, I'm looking to trade the car for an SUV, lower my debt payments, while keeping reliability a factor.
  23.   But he'll cover all taxes/fees related to the transfer!
  24.   So...in conclusion...nothing needs repairing except for the "I-D-Ten-T" error you were receiving?
