That's why I said if I go back to the same place it is cheaper.... Instead of like like $3500 for it...they said it would be like $ 2000.

So a whole bunch better than just going to a new place.

I'm still needing to set an appointment.

Travis....I know it sounds like a lot of money....but I swear, after you have it done...you will be so stoked and happy you did it. Like I said earlier, the amount of money you spend on Contacts and glasses over 10 + years is well worth the investment.

These places are desperate also, if you don't call them back...they will call you and ask you to come back and they will offer you a better deal.

If you don't like it, scroll all the way down and click on the dropdown menu where it says "My350_New" and change it to MY350370. You should be back to the old format.
all I see is "MY350_updated" and "lightweight" both revert to the new crappy theme. How can I get this MY350370 theme you speak about
If you scroll all the way down and look at the bottom left corner, you should now be able to choose the old style if you do not like the new theme with the red and black.

Mike, you coming out this Saturday to the lunch meet? If not, I'm going to swing by your place before or after to drop off the spacers, if that's cool with you. I meant to give them back to you on Sunday but got side tracked.

^ I'll just stop by before or after. I'll hit you up regardless prior to heading over there.


Fez - IB and some other admins before me tried to change the layout a few times before but there was always a strong opposition from me and many of the other staff members. We finally got forced into a new layout, lol. I guess they got tired of this.

My biggest gripe is the red everywhere. I've been trying to get used to it for almost 2 months now but still do not really like it. There used to be a whole lot more but I kept b1tching about it, so they removed some of it, though.

As for everything else, things were only moved around pretty much so if you know where to look, most of the options from before should still be around somewhere. Some of the "new features" also existed in the old layout, but you had to look for those, too.

If you call Tylock they will match anybody's price and Boothe lasik is offering each eye at $800 or up to $2500 off.

Are they from the nissan dealership ?

If so then they are that color to let you know they are still good...they will change over time until you can't see any color...then it is time to replace.

I wish I knew he was selling his 9mm, granted I don't know what model it was.

Well. Car stunk when I got in the garage today. Think the clutch might be going. Sigh. 37k miles on the car. If you can do this PM. Not looking for an aftermarket setup unless it is less. Not planning on anything more than maybe an exhaust for the car from what it has now.

Most likely it was a Glock.

And Pat and I talked about buying his AR he wanted to unload it and not get tons of cash for it...so I told him I would buy it for what he paid so he wouldn't be out any cash....next thing I know he is gonna go down to the Gun show to see if he can get more for it.
So I never got to negotiate a price for it.....he said he got $1400 for it.....and I have a friend that see's the Rockriver AR's fetching $1700+ on Texas Gun depot . com so he really didn't hold out for what he really could of got.
I guess all the stuff I helped him out with over the years wasn't worth much to him after all....so I guess lesson learned....Don't help others that won't return the favor !

Nuff said !
