ugh...it was Patricks idea to do the minnow bomb...shiet was GROSS! but I did it anyway.

Yesterday was my first gun show..I had NO idea it was like that. It was a really good time and Patrick got to sell his AR for some extra coin that he needed.

I somehow ended up with Patricks 9mm...its a sweet lil gun for sure. And I got to see Travis' arsenal.. which reminded me to never sneak up on his a$$. I think Patrick got in trouble with Michelle..

I also somehow got my gun apart and put it back together this morning. I learned alot about that thing since I never took it apart before.

Chris - If Im welcome to join you guys at the meet, I owe you a few brewshkis.. :-)

I would also like to Thank Pat for telling me he would sell me his AR and then going to the Gun show to sell it for more....FUGGER !

That's what kind of repay and gratitude I get for helping out people....paying for AutoX events and giving them Good used RS-3's....etc.

Thanks a lot Pat !

---------

On another note....I have a set of brand new EBC Yellow for the Rear Brembo brakes for sale. They sent me the wrong set and I told them I'll keep them.
I have a set of fronts coming soon to replace them.
But until then these are up for sale for $ 109.00 exactly what I paid for them without the shipping.
If no takers then I'll just keep them until I need the rears replaced.

Chris - I might buy those from you. I'm still trying to decide on which brake pads to go with though, so I'll let you know.

Travis - Just a helmet and a butt in the seat.

Stu, you never feel a thing.

They give you drops to numb your cornea.

And Yes, you do get a Valium to take to keep you calm and relaxed.


If you wear glasses, lasik is the single best thing you can do for vision. Seriously, I don't know why anybody that wears contacts and or glasses would want to continue to do so when this is available for them. Over all cost over a 10 yr period is less that paying for contacts and glasses for a 10 year period.

I thought the CR-V coming with a picnic table and optional shower kit was even more interesting. Crazy!

I don't think I'd qualify for lasik because I have monocular vision..I sure would love to have lasik though.

Yeah, those mounts are way too expensive. There was a guy on here or Driver who made them. I think they were called Mike's mounts, and it was cheaper. I just use the suction cups and have it up next to my rear view mirror and use an old telephone cable plugged into the mirror for power. Good enough, and a lot cheaper.

But aren't your eyes open the whole time so you're watching it all?

It was here and he doesn't visit this site anymore. However, if you're able to find his contact info, I hear he still takes orders.
