As for your "one and only handgun" purchase intention? I encourage you to think very carefully, maybe moreso than you have already, about why you are buying a handgun. Frankly, it sounds like you're buying a pistol just to say you have one, which tells me at first blush you're not too ser...

It was old after Frankenstein.

Nice pair of Death Stars you have there.

I considered the glock, it is high up there on my list. I have not heard anything very negative about them, and they are often recommended. The thing that I liked about the revolver was that I do go camping every now and then, and the wide range of loads that can be used. But I am not dead set on on...

I am going to buy my first and only handgun in July or August. I think I have made my decision, but I was wondering what everyone else thought. Here is what I am leaning towards: The .357 Smith and Wesson 686 SSR. It has the accuracy and the power. It can shoot the .38 special for home defense (I li...

It is the Battlefield Earth of Objectivism.

I love the quote!

How long are you willing to wait for something that is considered vaporware (but seems it will be released, eventually)? In this particular case I am still waiting on the RED Scarlet camera. When I get back to the States in July I was planning on purchasing a good video camera. The RED Scarlet is co...

What boggles me is why the hell they7 didn't just cast it in the 50's ? I mean from watching the previes it LOOKED like it was set then, all the interiors and fancy nearly artdeco sets, why is it movies are obsessed with casting movies in modern times. ESPECIALLY when it makes no sense from the sto...

In the Tom Cruise War of the Worlds remake, I thought they were going to use the 1960's Mustang to help them get away. But he repaired a minivan instead.

(Because in my mind the Road Warrior is still possible after a few EMP bursts.)

I will admit I enjoyed the book. But I would never think of trying to bring it to the big screen with out some real heavy weight talent, and a great dialouge doctor. There is not much action in the book, or too much drama other than backroom deals and such. From the picture I have seen of the traile...

Cool, thats the answer I thought it was but I had no backing. I wanted to make sure. I know a bit about cars themselves but not about how EMP interacts with with older electronics. I know how much dues ex devices are looked down upon, but I could not resist blowing out the modern cars to give the he...

Near my home town some one built a life size statue of the transformer Bumblebee. The cartoon version.

It is being built in Oklahoma. It is protected by the 2nd Amendment there.

OK, I am writing a fan fiction for the third part of the video game Interstate '76. It basically takes place in the mid to late 90's and the estranged daughter Grove Champion (the main character of the first game) reluctantly takes up the mantel of a now outlawed auto vigilants. So my question is wo...

Davis California

Use Skype instead of a cell phone (It may be worth the purchase number.) WiFi hot spots are everywhere. 60$ for a number and subscription for a year. That was my monthly phone bill before I became really poor. If you have an iPod touch, it is almost a cell phone. (I would guess you can do this with ...

Great I have been paying into the TSP for about a year. $400 a month paying into it. I should know better.

By the looks of it version 5 will be out rather soon.

I am looking to develope a space trading game for the iPhone starting sometime in August. Think of Trade Wars but a modern. I am looking for a program/partner. So I am sticking my feelers out to see if anyone is intrested? It will be around $300 dollar a month stipend (Until the game hopefully start...

I used to be pretty active in the VGAP 4 community. (Tim lives in the same city I do and we have mutual friends, yet I have never met him.) For VGAP 4 I created the 3rd party race of the Scavenger Tribes and the Coalition. (Plus did alot of graphics work for other people.) VGAP4 was confusing, but i...

I actually like some music, but as it goes I can live with out it. If I had to pick between music and a good magazine, I would pick the magazine. (Yes I know I can do both.) I usually pick sports broadcasts, or talk if I am listening to the radio. I can name bands I like (Queen, Pink Floyd, Night Wi...

The title of the topic is to get the basic idea across, but it is misleading. I could not explain what I mean in a phrase. The best way I can explain my feelings on music is that I feel the same way about music as most people do about TV commercials. Most of it is annoying, but there is some I like,...

Now if I was to redo it, it would be 10-15 years after the movie took place, and restructure the whole plot. I know this has not been too terribly successful, like seaQuest or War of the Worlds, but after I got over the shock I enjoyed the restructured story better than the original. It would start ...

I would not give Serenity weapons. It is what helped make the show unique. I would like to see a second season, but these people are delusional if they think all it takes is money. No one, not even the Creator, is fighting for the show in the high ivory towers of the hollywood execs office. Who hold...
