So close! Just a few more hours! Photos up ASAP after arrival. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Or we just got long sleeve t-shirts while you all got short sleeve t-shirts.

  Sending you a PM.

May have a local claim on these, I'll let you know in the next few days.

        In light of tracking my mystery bags, I came up with this idea. Not that we would be able to tell much (if anything) by doing so, I figured it'd be fun to post how much the package weights.   I ordered two of the mystery bags, and UPS shows the package weighing 1.8 lbs.

  I've always had good service from them. They are the company I ordered the $20 BDU style pants from. I purchased 5 pairs, and to make a really long story short, they sent me four replacement pairs within that month because there were small issues with two of the originals, then an issue with the two replacements, Some of the issues had to do with incorrect sizing (they sent me a size 42 when I ordered 36. One of the pairs was about two inches longer than they should have been. One or two pairs had their buttons sowed on loosely. So, in retrospect, their quality control/warehouse crew may lack a little, but they definitely took care of me in terms of customer service. I'll stay a happy customer until they give me a reason otherwise.   Interesting about the backorder issue though. To be sending out "500" bags, it seems suspicious. I suppose they had enough stock to put together a certain number of the bags with the rest of the stock incoming within a few days/weeks. Then the bags were more popular than they expected and sold out in the first day all the while when they expected to receive the incoming stock before the bags sold out.   Or they decided to turn "500" into a larger number and let more than 500 orders go through.   Who knows?

  Well, I never really get your way, but if you get my way I don't mind holding them for you. Also, I have 10 left. I suppose I couldn't turn you down but I'd much prefer to let all of them go at once. If you think you'll get down my way anytime soon, they're yours. I'd just expect payment now and then I would box them, write "tnguy" on them, and stick them aside until I get a PM from you. If you don't want to, that's fine. Work out with someone else on the forums that might make that trip often, I'll meetup with them and they can deliver them to you if you want. Just let me know.

Someone backed out. I suppose that means I have another 10 if someone wants them. The first person to claim them right here gets them. Then I'll PM you with payment details.

  I tried that one on at Walmart. It was very nice for a metal banded watch. However, I really wanted to give a lighter weighted watch a go, and I think the one I ordered is exactly that. However, it doesn't get here until tomorrow because a waited a few minutes too long last night:(

Time for someone to write a fancy book, quote this guy a lot, and call it "Breaking Bad Effects".

:rofl:   So all those times druggies have been stealing stuff to pawn they were actually just looking for a cash payout!    EDIT: Yes, I'll admit that environment does play a very large role in it. There isn't a single thing in my life that I'd give up for the "thrills" of any drug, however I've been very blessed and have a great job and family. However, there are so many people that have neither and narcotics are seen as the only way "out".

Vitamix or Blend Tec or get out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks like mine should arrive Thursday! Anyone else's coming soon? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well, I made it until yesterday. WooHoo!

In. For anyone that didn't take part last year, it was a lot of fun!

Looks like that .308 is $.70 a round. Math FTW! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  This is something I thought about heavily. Obviously, some of the blame goes to the person that pulled the trigger. However, (advocate here) that may have very well been the very first firearm that person had ever touched in their life without any training or safety instructions ever. They say all the signs "guaranteeing" that all bones beyond that point were unloaded. Obviously, some of the blame goes to the vender (should have checked it). However, what about the officers whose job was to inspect and clear each firearm before "zipping" it? Sure, I get it. It gets very boring inspecting gun after gun for several hours. However, someone could have been killed. If it gets boring, they should have a system in which you rotate in and out, allowing officers to take breaks and allow a 'fresh brain" to process the firearms.   It is, admittedly, also possible that the firearm of interest (mores the person carrying it) entered into the room via the open bay day that vendors were using to bring all their stuff in that morning. It appeared to me that some vendors were simply going and taking handfuls of the zip ties from the officers, and then going back to their tables to do the clearing and securing themselves. It is entirely possible that the firearm of interest bypassed the official checkpoint altogether.   I just heard rumors and whatnot, but I don't know for sure how the firearm ended up on the table. I just think more should be done educating and warning gun show participants that the firearms may be loaded and to ask for help if needed. Someone who has never handled a firearm in their life may not see how a .22lr tube fed rifle feeds and assume that it cannot be loaded because there isn't a magazine sticking out below. 

  Exactly this. If what I'm buying accepts my Discover card, I use it. I'd use it for rent if possible. I have not paid a single penny in interest since I received the card roughly two years ago. I have, however, received hundreds in cashback benefits. With Discover, you can have it credited to your account as a payment, deposited as cash into your checking account, or you can use it instantly as Amazon credit to purchase things if your Discover card is on your Amazon account. There are also many options available for redeeming for giftcards, but most of the places you can redeem them for are places that generally markup their products, so I just use it as a credit to my balance. It works the same as a cash payout. In my budgeting program I record it as income in the form of  "Discover Cashback". For example, if I apply a $50 credit to my Discover balance from the cashback I've earned, I record that as $50 income. My overall income for the month just raised $50 so I have $50 to spend elsewhere. If possible, I use my Discover card to make that purchase so I get cashback while spending cashback in reality.   Discover cashback generally varies from 1% to 10%-25% (at certain retailers at certain times of the year), and have a 5% revolving cashback category every yearly quarter. This quarter, it's 5% on online purchases! I've already made the $1500 online purchases, and thus maxed out that "category" to $75 cashback. Or I could have used my debit card and received $0. Still get 1% on everything put on my Discover.    Signup here and get a $50 credit to your account for signing up:   http://bit.ly/15WRIIL   By the way, for 2014:   5% Cashback on: Jan-Mar (Restaurants & Movies) Unsure what they are for the rest of the 2014 year.

  I read an article yesterday that made me doubt whether I wanted Atomic/Solar. It suggested that it truly is a "chore" to keep it charged. I guess I could see that if you keep it under sleeves all day or something, but I figured it would be pretty low maintenance. What exactly do you consider "years" of owning it? (5+, 10+, etc)?   It also suggested that the atomic watch feature was annoying. I suppose it depends on where you live in relation to the Colorado transmitter, but it was suggesting you have to take the watch off each night, put it next to a window facing the transmitter with the steel backing facing it. I thought some of them claim to sync 4-6 times a day or something like that. Do you find yourself having to make a special plan in order to get it to sync up?

You think it looks like a toy of some sort, you need to pick one up! Truly an interesting piece.

I always thought they looked neat. In Cleveland there is a tree on the greenway between 25th St. And 20th St. Ended up finding a nice "brain specimen" to bring home a few weeks ago just because. Ended up reading about them a bit. Read that they can be a skin irritant and thought "no big deal". Later that night I realized I had a chemical type burn on the hand I carried it with (mainly worked like a chemical peel. No big deal but lots of dead skin). I always thought they would be cool for a Halloween display if done correctly (jars, liquids, right colored lights, etc). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
