    Gun control

    Assault rifles already require paying a $200 tax stamp and getting the sign off of a local DA, sheriff or other controlling law enforcement entity as laid out in the 1934 National Firearms Act. It also requires that any gun meeting the requirement under the NFA be reported to the ATF if you...

    Retirement questions - any early retirees out there?

    Don't do it if you work in a sector where it's hard to get back into a good job. For me, my stuff hasn't changed much in the last 30 years except we do it on computers now isntead of paper. But some sectors you really have to stay tied in to keep up, if my job was like that I wouldn't even...

    Gun control

    Most politicians have never heard of the NFA (National Firearms Act) and even fewer can tell you what it covers yet they come out and talk about stuff that is already covered in the legislation.

    Gun control

    I didn't catch the entire article but I saw the headline yesterday about 22 kids being stabbed in China. I guess I should have looked more closely at it. The problem with most politicians and gun control is they don't know jack shit about firearms or the laws already on the books. You already...

    Stock options

    I don't think you can do it anymore but at Dow Chemical you used to could sell your options to other employees. My uncle pretty much retired a multi millionaire simply buying stock options from people who wanted instant money. I know not related, but I know lots of people who never take the...

    This should stir the pot. A school would be number 1 on the list if they graduated 50% of football players against a university average of 10% lol. It's complete BS but I'm sure people will argue about it Top 25 football programs ranked by academics...

    Don't get me started on the BS Bama 2012/2013 bridge schedule that the Bama grad at the SEC came up with. Somehow they managed to drop off GA that was already on their schedule and pick up Kentucky in exchange.

    Retirement questions - any early retirees out there?

    I will be 42 next month and I am "semi" retired. I sold majority interest in my business and now work as a consultant doing design work on a contract basis. I have pretty low expenses, live in a cheap part of the world and have a pretty large chunk of land that I inherited control over (51% and...

    Home Theater In a Box ?

    I guess I am kind of an audiphile at the home but at the office I was just looking for some speakers. At the house I am old school, tube amps and reel to rell 95% of the time. People who have never heard a good 1/4" reel to reel would be suprised at the quality.

    ESPN 30 for 30 - Bo Jackson

    The year he entered the NFL was the first year they started testing for steroids. If he used steroids he did it better, smarter, longer and with less side effects than any athlete I've seen. He was a beast, that's what really made him stand out because he really doesn't have the numbers that...

    ESPN 30 for 30 - Bo Jackson

    One thing that only touched on was when he started playing pro baseball he was a freak in size. That was still back in the days of the thought that you couldn't play baseball if you were msucular because you wouldn't be fast enough or agile enough. You look at guys back in the 80's and they look...

    Did anyone else catch the episode with Bo Jackson Saturday? We had a discussion about it for a while on the old board. I saw it and thought it was pretty good. Found this today. I saw him play baseball in college. I assume I saw him play football in college against LSU but it doesn't stand out...

    It was in the Baton Rouge paper one day last week. Said he really didn't think he would go back to UT at any position along with some other stuff. Maybe he was ticked he didn't make the list of everyone else who was in the mix for the UT job.

    Receivables Rant!

    Can they get what you offer them elsewhere and how easily? I had a customer who was late more than 30 days on a regular basis. I let it slide since they were an almost insignificant part of our business and I knew we were a major part of theirs. The day they hit 60 days late on the latest...

    When UT runs off a coach they must really tick them off. Chavis said some pretty bad things about UT recently during their coaching search and why he wasn't interested in ever going back at any capacity.

    Discussion on another board about teams that had great assistants at one time that may or may not been a great team. Of course LSU came up (on a LSU board) with Saban, Muschamp, Fisher, and Dooley (ok he was a good assistant) at once. Anyone want to throw their team into the mix?

    I'm pretty sure I picked up some crap from the FoH board. I normally only browse 2 sites on my work computer. FoH and AR15.COM and AR15 is a pretty large and professional forum site and I never got a warning over there and nobody has posted anything about it. I really never pick up anything and...

    Last minute chrimtmas shoppers are going to clog stores more than usual after the apocolypse doesn't happen on the 21st and they find out they now have to get out and buy presents. I haven't followed any of this, was this an actual prediction or did their calander just stop on that date?

    Hiring a coach takes stepping stones even for one with lots of money. LSU didn't go from Hallman and his 3 win season straight to Saban. We had to get Dinardo who had a few decent seasons with some bowl appearances after a drought before we hired Saban. Things move so fast now that even if you...

    I don't think it's a terrible hire. I think he's getting overpaid at the start of his contract and that contract is pretty long. When we fired Hallman his buyout was $98k lol.

    I have a Lenovo A2109 I picked up for $199. It gets the worst reviews possible for the screen viewing at some angles but apparently I don't use the tablet like most people because it works just fine for me. I compared it side by side to the Nexus 7 and the 9" screen on the Lenovo won me over. I...
