I met my baby daddy on the internet. On World of Warcraft, no less. My previous two boyfriends, both relationships spanning years, were met on the internet, as well. I've met many people, with no incident.
Meeting people from teh_internet is like a blind date with a lot more investment. With a blind date, you can just go home, but when you fly or drive out to meet someone, you're kind of stuck. There's inherent risk with both scenarios..
On that note, I'd really like to go to a Sift Up, sometime. I'm in Indianapolis. Eh? Anyone? Mid-West Sift up??

Colts suck...eat Bolt

I don't know about your Colt but this was certainly effective and beautiful.

Cruisin' Mos Espa
In my Delorean
War's over
I'm a peacetime mandalorian

My story has stumped
Star Wars historians
Deep in debate,
Buffet plate at Bennigan's

Rhyme renegade
Sure to penetrate
First and second offense
I won't hesitate

Got a job to do
And Darth's the guy that delegates
Got something against Skywalker
Someone he really hates

I don't give a fuck
I'm after Solo
For all I care
He could be hidin' at Yoda's dojo

Gotta make the money
Credit's no good
When the jawas runin' shop
In your neighborhood

Think you can cook
I got a grappling hook
Let's make this quick
'Cause I'm really booked

I'm a devious degenerate
Defender of the devil
Shut down all the trash compactors
On the detention level

chorus
My backpack's got jets
Well I'm Boba the Fett
Well I bounty hunt for Jabba Hutt
To finance my 'Vette

wicky wicky woo

Well I chill in deep space
A mask is over my face
Well I deliver the prize
But I still narrow my eyes
'Cause my time
I don't like to waste.

Get down

I'm a question
Wrapped inside an enigma
Get inside the slave one
Find your homing signal

From Endor to Hoth
Ripley to Spock
I'll find what you want
But there's gonna be a cost

See, my name is Boba Fett
I know my shit is tight
Start not actin'right
You're frozen in carbonite

Got telescopic sight
Flame throwers on my wrist
You still don't get the gist
Spiked boots are made to kick

Targets are made to hit
You think I give a shit
Yo mama is a bitch
I see you in the Sarlaac Pit

You just flipped my switch
Integrity been dissed
You scratchin' on my itch
You know I shoot to get

Got bambinas at cantinas
Waitin' to lick my lusty lips
So I'll let you get back inside
Your little space ship

Give you a head start
'Cause I'm the sportin' kind
Consider the starting line
The sneaky smile I hide inside

Hope you have hyper drive (drive)
pray to stay alive ('live)
Don't try to slip me a five
'Cause I never take a bribe

To the beat of a different drummer
Bad ass bounty hunter
Let no man put asunder
Or else they be put under

As in six feet
Got an imperial fleet
Backin' me up, gonna blow up
Any attempt to defeat

They gotta death star
Got four payments on my car
Hand it over to hammer head
At Mos Eisley bar

He used to carjack
Now he's a barback
Just goes to show how you can
Get back on the right track

As for me that's not an option
Can't say that with more clarity
Me going legit would be like
Jar Jar on speech therapy

Chorus
My backpack's got jets
Well I'm Boba the Fett
Well I bounty hunt for Jabba Hutt
To finance my 'Vette

wicky wicky woo

Well I chill in deep space
A mask is over my face
Well I deliver the prize
But I still narrow my eyes
'Cause my time
I don't like to waste.

Get down

Slice you open like a Taun Taun
Faster than the Autobahn
Or a motorbike in Tron
Do the deed and then I'm gone

Jaba has a hissyfit
Contact Calrissian
Over a colt, the plan unfolds
No politic is legit

Back in the day
When I was a slave
Living life in the fast lane
Like in a pod race

My mean streak tweaked
I became a basket case
So this space ace
Split that place, poste haste

Took up a noble cause
Called the Clone Wars
'Cause life's not all about
Girls and cars

Getting fucked up
In fucked up bars
See, I'm not a retard
Or gay like de Barge

I'm large and in charge
With a face so scarred
A cold black heart
That's been torn apart

The Sith wish that they
Had a dick so hard
'Cause it's long long ago
In a pussy far far

Call me master, 'cause I'm faster
Than Pryor on fire
I no longer have to hot wire

I'm a hunter for hire
With no plans to retire
And all the sucka MCs
Can call me sire

Chorus
My backpack's got jets! (jets jets jets)

Well I'm Boba the Fett! (the Fett the Fett)

Well I bounty hunt for Jabba Hutt, (Jabba Hutt Jabba Hutt Jabba Hutt)

...To finance my 'Vette (my 'Vette my 'Vette my 'Vette my 'Vette)

They played this commercial during the game where the Colts came here to San Diego and beat the Chargers. I don't like this. No vote.

1. 1
2. Marvin, as in Marvin Harrison the Colts receiver
3. I thought about getting one when I booked my next job and knew where I was going to be for 5 months (others called in rooting myself in LA) anyways I found young on craigslist and I went to see him. The gentleman, who was not English as a first language type, brought out a soaking wet shivering cat. He assured me it was an indoor cat. Then brokenly explained that he had just finished taking the cat for a walk in the park and then gave him a bath. He looked at me for a moment. "He indoor cat" I was assured. At this point I figured I had to take the kitty if only to get him away from this guy.
4. Slightly over a year
5. A tabby so orange with white spots and a surprisingly fluffy tail considering the rest of the body.
6. He likes to head butt. Like to wake you up in the morning. Also I had a girl over once and the cat unbuttoned her pants and pulled down the zipper. He's a good cat.
7. I like dogs and cats, but I work entertainment hours in the city so a cat seemed more sensible.
8. TBD

And thus was a new Samuel Colt born.

As my first post...because I'm sarcastic.
...and I t-totally agree with blankfist. KP needs a woman.

...and I believe that image is actually the old model of the Colt (again, don't ask me how I know)

They aren't drinking the wrong water.. they are drinking the wrong CoolAid!

If there were going to go that far with their idiocy, they should have at least put a bottle of Colt 45 Malt Liquor on the food stamp too.

Posting this is sort of cathartic for me. The 1984 games were the first I was consciously really aware of, and they really put me off TV sports.

Germany had 3 TV stations back then (we could only receive two), and cartoons only came tuesday afternoons for an hour. The only other kids series was Colt Sievers (The Fall Guy) mondays just before the news. And for TWO WEEKS 24 hours a day all you got on both channels was the games and news. My precious tv shows were cancelled for this boring stuff.... And the incessant doodeling of this tune on the radio. I don't think I'll ever recover.

De nada. The next round of Colt 45 is on me.

>> ^vairetube:
Johnny Five is... A... live?

Colt 45 semi auto matic...plaaaydough.

I'd have to look again for that. The grand champion was the llama dressed as a Colts cheerleader.

funny how a single scene can contain some of the best, and worst, in cinematic gunplay, eh?

because some of the physics, and tactics, are actually quite a bit more genuine than the hollywood norm. where arnold finds cover behind hedgerows...

the most glaring problem here being the one schmawy points out.
> Costner manages to fan off at least eight shots from his colt.

and i'd second what dproc said, as well.

with one very minor edit, i suppose:
... but it was not purely by the effect of the slug.

because yeah, lots of little factors. if the shooter were prone (for instance) then of course that which might otherwise knock you off your feet, in firing, wouldn't.

and if the target were in mid-pirouette or something (to use an obvious, unlikely, worst-case scenario of being off-balance) then sure, a shot to your center of gravity is going to cause significant lateral movement.

and yeah, at 4:30, he gets both barrels, center mass, at a range of 10 feet. now, that's all kinds of ugly and he damn sure ain't stayin' put. but slamming him into a building another ten feet away is laying it on a 'lil thick.

It's true.

The following weapons are much better then the M4; the FN SCAR, the HK416 and the XM8 from Heckler & Koch. The XM8 was about to be picked up a few years ago but it all stopped.

All the weapons are mentioned are from Belgium and Germany, a military arms contract for the US Army would mean a huge loss for Colt which is a US arms firm. There is external pressure to keep with Colt even though its now an inferior design. 40 year old weapon design for a grunt field weapon is too long, its outdated, the AK has evolved in leaps and bounds comparatively to the 74 and 101 spec.

"Other issues were that the Army has a legislated obligation to prefer U.S.-based manufacturers, and that a previous agreement with Colt Defense required the Army to involve Colt in certain small-arms programs."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XM8_rifle

Note: "Colt Defense LLC is the sole source supplier of the M4 Carbine to the US military and the only manufacturer worldwide that meets or exceeds all US military specifications for the weapon."

My personal belief is that there is also external pressure to hold off on replacing the rifles and carbine (as mentioned in the article) for something that is Future Combat spec like the OICW, but coming from a US manufacturer and not a German one (regardless of the fact that global economics means that the rifle would actually be made in Georgia). The XM spec weapons directly came from the OICW.

I don't believe the trails are done so much from a grunt perspective but from a cost benefit analysis with some big weights pressing to continue with the Colt license, Colt losing it and actually making a better weapon then the M4 is a huge financial loss for them.

So much for free markets eh?

In reply to this comment by Jordass:
I know there was a lot of debate on military weapons on certain posts. Saw this http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24229068 and wondered if you or MGR thought it had any weight or just the media making shit up again

Any future bans of weapons in the U.S. will more than likely follow some tragic event perpetrated by a single, damaged individual-
The Brady Bill was fast-tracked, after just such a convenient event.

A more reasonable approach to disarming a nation would be to place prohibitions on the availability of ammunition.

It is a dead certainty, that the media in the U.S., being the uninformed, uneducated, easily manipulated and agenda-oriented bobble-head tools of their owners that they are, will be instrumental in the dis-arming of the Nation, though it will take some catastrophe, natural or engineered to do so....

synchron, in the U.S., an individual may purchase from another individual, any of the guns on the banned list-they can not be marketed through the manufacturer or retailers-
The only 4 guns I will ever need, are all still legal-
Colt 1911 45
Marlin 45/70 Guide Gun
12-gauge (take yer pick, several semi-autos worth while)
and the fun gun
the 1927 A-1 Deluxe Thompson Lightweight (only semi-autos are legal, the fully-auto Thompson is on the banned list)

The only other gun that one would need would be a long-range sniper rifle, and the one that a proficient user could strike the most fear into a would-be assailant that I would have, is this one-SHARPS ARMS MODEL 1874 HARTFORD SPORTING RIFLE-(same calibre as the Marlin...the gun Quigley used)

All for shock and awe and the continued availability of the ammunition used, the shotgun shell,the 45 acp, and the 45/70, may never be banned-and even if they are, they are the only thing worth reloading.
