  1. I saw a guy the other day with those ear lobe stretched out circles in his ears. Maybe 1 1/2" diameter.  He was a normal looking guy otherwise. Those look even worse when they don't have the thing inserted in there with the ear lobe just hanging down.

  2. I have a 2007 Tacoma 4 cylinder access cab. Pretty much the base model. Bought it new.  At that time I purchased lifetime oil change for $500. Have had the oil changed regularly all these years. One time the guy doing the paperwork printed out all the oil changes I've had over the years. He laughed and commented that I'd got my moneys worth. He said it pays for itself in about 3 years. Almost 295,000 miles on it now.

    As I recall PractiScore has a provision to accept credit card payments for clubs.

     

    USPSA, IDPA, ICORE, Steel Challenge and outlaw matches are almost all set up on Practiscore with credit card payments. One small club has registration on Practiscore but you pay at the match.

  4. They are the most comfortable pants I've worn in a long time. I have 2 new pairs set aside and rotate 3 others from them. I had other cargo shorts that fit well but just received 2 pair of their firehose shorts and wore a pair this weekend. Love them. I get t shirts from the kingsize website. Their regular t shirts are long enough untucked for me unlike many others. I ordered some extra long to try at first but they are too long. I wear them for USPSA matches tucked in and they stay in. Never had an issue with the zippers on their pants.

  5. If you only have to load the 38s a little longer to function, that's one thing. If you have to load them to 357 magnum overall  length 10 might not fit. Many shooters use 38 special loaded longer because it functions in the rifle better not because of a capacity issue.

  6. Recognize the achievement - don't denigrate the competitor because their accomplishments didn't occur under conditions they were not subject to.

    I recognize the achievement.  It's when they compare it to the previous achievment, both athletes subject to the rules of their time, and make it as if the new achievement is greater.  Of course she can only compete under the conditions of todays game but it's disingenuous to ignore the differences  they each faced.

  7. I really enjoyed Firefly. Recently flipping through the channels I came across a program I hadn't watched. The lead woman caught my attention. I thought she was doing a good job. I finally realized it was the girl who played Kaylee, the engineer on Firefly. 20 years later now. Family Law is the show I think?

  8. She's great but it in no way compares to what Maravich accomplished. He also did it , obviously? playing against men. As far as college basketball in general very few left school early to go to the pros. A lot of great players played as seniors in college.

  9. I've seen interviews with her talking about singing. She said she was a good singer, not great, but that she could blow the doors off their hinges. Also she had no desire to continue playing rock music as she got older.

  10. We have had only antenna broadcast tv for quite a while now. Recently it automatically rescanned and we get more channels. I also turn on the captions. There are a few channels I'd watch but they don't have the closed captioning. When my wife is gone I can crank it up. Sometimes it works sometimes not. 

  11. Some shooters use a boresnake after every stage and other maintenance.  If you want to shoot 5 or 6 stages without cleaning after each stage bullets without bp lube probably aren't going to work.

  12. What equipment do many or most of the cast lead bullet manufacturers use? I thought a lot of it was the Magma machines and molds but don't  really know. Some manufacturers are much bigger then others too.

  13. Illegals come here for the opportunity.  Long ago it was for the opportunity to work and support their family. Now it is for the opoirtunity to receive free benefits, medical, drivers licenses, and to file on supposed dependents still back home to get a nice big tax refund. Plus the opportunity to attack U S citizens with a smaller risk of repercussions then if a citizen attacked the illegal commiting a crime against the citizen. New opportunities!

  14. I believe the A and B prefix Rodeos have some Uberti parts. I have an A and I'm pretty sure it's an Uberti frame, not sure about other parts. But they are still good guns put together well but not all U.S. parts.

     

    I bought mine after a bullet order mixup. I had been thinking about getting a 45 Rodeo but was using 44s. I had no 45s. Ordered 2000 44cal bullets. I waited a while, contacted the manufacturer and he said they were running behind a liitle. No big deal but when the bullets arrived they were 45s. The inner boxes were torn open with bullets everywhere. I contacted him again and he said he'd ship the correct 44s immediately and to hold on to the 45s meanwhile. Later he called and said to just keep the 45s. I figured it was like a discount on the Rodeo and ordered it.
