Randall thinks Ben Affleck and Josh Hartnett are dreamboats :D

I gave up TV about 10 years ago...
I don't know who Josh Hartnett is.


I have watched little TV for last 14 or so years, I used to be adddicted to it though.  You don' watch movies either?

I'm sure Randall can relate to problem customers as well though.

My favorite customers are the ones that will stand in your shop and tell you they can buy something X number of dollars cheaper somewhere else.
I tell them to go do that then...

That is just rude when people do that.

They probably do that in the hopes you will match or lower your price,very unclassy though.  In hate when people complain out load at gunshops they can get ammo cheaper at Wal Mart and such.

I've got a better one -

Boy and his GF ordered 1 super burrito - Comes with rice, beans, cheese, sour cream and salsa ofcourse your choice of meat -
Dude ask for the burrito to be served open face in a bowl (we've been doing that for 11 years now), then proceed to ask if I can take the tortillas and the cheese and make him a quesadilla - I said sure, and rung him up for the quesadilla - He look stunned, ask me why I charged him for something that he was getting already. What a moe - I told his GF never to bring him with her again - She broke up with the idiot 2 weeks later.

Amazing, I have heard and seen as bad and worse though as restaurants.  Such as bringing in your own drinks or sharing one cup with 2-3 people with refills or bringing in cup from last visit.  Even worse stuff too but I am too lazy to post of these stories though.  I have seen similar stuff at ranges too, people asking to go into indoor range as a spectator with a shooter and not to charge and then catching them shooting.

Well, I am off to go get some smokes. Be back in a few.

Marlboro Virginia blend FTW!  Benson and Hedges ok too.  Dunhills changed the formula, they suck now. 

Roll your own, Drum FTW!

Stories, not too much to tell.

That CG I went hunting with EXTURNERSEMP, he's an older Greek gentleman. Older than me but not senior citz. old. He's a good guy, just like many other CG's that I have met. I showed him more of the area near the Salton Sea. I kind of know it a little better since I am a land owner out there.

He wanted to go test out some handloads he made for his snubbie 454 Casull. So I took him  & his other buddy to a spot out in BLM land that already had some targets set up.

He made some hot loads that wanted to rip your wrist right off. They were so hot we could only shot 3 at a time verse all 6.

More to come later if you guys/gals would like to hear.

Sounds cool, I want to go hunting with you soon too as well.  If he is interested, I have a rare Greek military rifle I may sell but it will be expensive.  Would be a real cool thing to own if you are of Greek descent though. 

He may want it or one of his other Greek buddies may. I met like 4 of them out there.

I sometimes roll my own and put them in a cigarette case but I am usually too lazy to do so, it looks a bit funny smoking them in public too.  My dad says cigs from Vietnam sucked, most foreign ones do it seems IMHO.

Let them know please if you can, Greek Mannlicher Schoenauer 1903/14 made by Breda in 1927 IIRC.  Has Greek crest on receiver and small St.George stamp also. 6.5x54ms, may have a little ammo to throw in too. 

Ok shape, non sporterized, functional but with a dark bore.  I have shot it w/o issues.

I don't own a DVD player.
The last time I turned on the TV was well over 6 months ago.
I wonder if it still works?
Do TV's go bad?

No pic, no prob to meet him locally for an inspection, I'd want about $750 firm for it I'd say.  Some Greek dude from Germany on Gunboards sent me PMs almost begging me to sell it to him,lol.

Can you only register 4/year, how do they know what was built and when??  And, I thought you don't even have to register the long guns...

There is no registration of non-assault-weapon long guns.

not yet anyways.

We used to have people get 8 or 10 water cups for their family.  Then they all put Sprite in them.  Sprite has bubbles, water doesn't.  We used to just take the cups off the table when we pre-bussed, or just when walking by.  We found though that it was just easier to not say anything, let the people think they got away with free sodas, that probably only cost us pennies.  They would come back, spend 80 on pizzas next month, and steal $1 worth of soda.

I don't remember the actual food cost to us of a soda, but when you are buying it as a BIB, it doesn't cost much.  Coke even made special deals with Quick Service Resturants like McDonalds to turn the syrup/water mix more watery.  I don't remember the ratio, but McDonalds makes a killing on their sodas.  Look at the price, $2 for 16oz, c'mon!?  And, the syrup/water ratio is adjustable...  I'm sure some business owners adjust the ratio...  Just like some customers in the know, pop the cover and crank up the syrup.  I'd get those rude awakenings Mondays while getting my morning coke.  I don't drink coffee.
