    Gen Giap died

    I realize most veterans from that war would say rot in hell, and I absolutely respect that opinion. I am of the mindset that one should respect their adversary, and of course attempt to kill him. The man played a political game and won. He beat the politicians of the USA at their own game...

    WTF is up with this Apple iOS 7 update?

    LOL I dunno what to say about that, I don't believe everything I read on the net. For the record, it is safe to assume that if you are on the net or an electronic device you are being listened to and/or recorded - I would never argue that! I work in IA, Information Assurance, and previously...

    WTF is up with this Apple iOS 7 update?

    Do you feel lucky? LOL I left my iPod on 6.13 while seven has a cool flashlight app built into it and I didn't need that on the iPod. Are are about 11 tweaks that you should turn off to maximize efficiency on iOS 7. Google it and if you are up for it.I think the graphics were better in the old...

    Some words about "mindset"

    Isn't practicing part of mindset? On my brown belt test I had to spar the master. I stood almost ZERO chance of winning that outcome as he has 28 years over me. Whistle blew, I used a backfist to his temple and knocked him down and nearly out on the first hit. MINDSET. STRIKE HARD, STRIKE...

    Car Insurance Question

    $2000 LESS???????????? I just got my 7 year discount with PEMCO - I pay $587 a year..(I'm 48 though) But, just bought a 2002 Jetta VR6, full coverage took it back up to 980 a year. Farmers screwed me when a guy hit my truck 7 years ago and his insurance company was dropping the ball...

    Straight From The Twilight Zone

    My daughter is now going to the school I graduated from, there is an officer there and he is *not* in uniform. he has several advantages to that, when he wears his hawaiin shirt and shorts - kids LOVE him despite being firm. He's a validated former Navy Seal. Nuff said.

    12 dead at Washington Navy Yard

    Debated this with a guy yesterday. Had martin not been out buying the chemicals for his drugs (Codine drink), had he been put in jail for the 11 burglaries from when his backpack at schol was confiscated...had all of that happened this incident never would have happened. Trevon should have...

    WTF is up with this Apple iOS 7 update?

    I was wrong on the market share pe rcentage, apple claims 18.5% at this point. Citing a wikipedia article LOL - that's funny. Let me go write one that says what I want without any facts to back it up, I'll put some obscure references to some opposing view opinion article and call it fact. I...

    Spotting scope

    My Nikon 15-45 goes out to 600, beyond that - won't see bullet holes. Nikon Earth and Sky, IMHO the best budget scope out there...

    Range Rover vs Bikers

    The driver reported that he was brake checked by the bike, and while in my state you arestill at fault for following too close, when a bike pulls in front and locks up his brakes he takes his life into his own hands. From there on, primal fear. I can't blame the guy for wanting to protect his...

    WTF is up with this Apple iOS 7 update?

    I do assume that anything I do online is public. If you speak into an electronic device it is heard. That is the safest assumption!! For that matter, we had a laser device in the 1990's that hits a window and p icks up voices based on the vibes to the window/air pressure so even talking in your...

    WTF is up with this Apple iOS 7 update?

    Let me restate this, APPLE S TATES: They refuse to respond to the warrant on the iMessage and Facetime, refusal to respond to a warrant is generally the same as refusing to cave.

    12 dead at Washington Navy Yard

    That's not what happened, 7 guys went in without approval, from 3 different agencies. First two guys caught buckshot, guys 3-7 put bad guy down. Besides, UK news? - Puh.........anti-gun and somewhat anti-USA.

    Advanced Marksmanship Shooting Skills: Sniper vs Competition Shooters

    I shot as a DM in the Army, we just d id n't have the time, funds etc to train as much as we needed. Strange that we did for the combat pistol team I spent 4 years on. But years later I got into Highpower shooting and LR and spent hours a week d ry firing at a dot on my wall. Difference...

    Want to help the families of Navy Yard shooting?

    I'm in the loop on emails coming in, had co-workers that I dealt with indirectly that were involved. I for one, plan on donating. The email I received just now: XXXX team, you may have already seen this, but a "Navy Yard Tragedy Family Support Fund" has been set up with the Tragedy...

    WTF is up with this Apple iOS 7 update?

    Interesting that all other phone creators caved to NSA except apple, your iMessage is secure because they refused to hand over the encryption keys. Your facetime is secure. Can't say that about any other carrier or any other phone. The update dropped the ball and I would not be suprised...

    12 dead at Washington Navy Yard

    I am never unarmed. My mind is my weapon. Firearms are a tool, as are my hands, a broom, a stick. I teach Shotokan Karate and that's lesson #1. Rely on a tool and it will fail you. Rely on yourself. I've read stats on both sides of the house, I do believe in security, I believe in the 2nd...

    A hide member made the news

    I saw an article yesterday about a memo that authorized the FBI to label you as a terrorist supporter if you openly discuss 911 "Conspiracy theories", such as the 2500 architects, scientists etc pushing for a new investigation. So them stealing your yard sign? Be lucky you don't end up in a...
