  1. Its very doable. Thurman has a facility that he runs in WNY that does similar to what you are thinking. http://www.thurmanthomassports.com/home.html
  2. Lesson time: An automatic weapon is a gun that when fired extracts the casing and loads a new round into the chamber. Automatic does not exclusively mean a machine gun where you hold the trigger and continue to fire until the magazine is empty, that would be Fully-Automatic which for the most part are illegal. Automatic many times truthfully means Semi-automatic where when a shot is fired and the next round is loaded the trigger needs to be pulled again for the next shot to fire. The media typically calls any weapon that is semi-automatic an "automatic" because that is the technical term and sounds more deadly. So we hear that shooter is using an AK-47, that means fully-automatic because that's what we typically see in the media when you look at wars overseas. The truth is the AK-47 which is legal in many states is actually a semi-automatic rifle and is very popular due to its maintenance and reliability. It also uses a 7.62x39mm round, similar to a .308 which is a popular hunting round because of its knockdown ability. But an AK-47 is much more dangerous than a deer hunting rifle right? Not really, all guns are dangerous and capable of killing, that is what they are made to do. The biggest difference between an assault rifle and hunting rifle is the amount of ammunition held in the magazine and a "pistol grip." Truthfully a good hunting rifle is much more accurate than any AK which means it is deadlier in the hands of a skilled shooter. Now I'm a gun advocate, I possess and carry weapons. I'm a former police officer and my dad was a police officer so I've been around them all my life. I don't believe that a ban on any type of weapon is a solution to any violence problem because there are a plethora of unregistered weapons in the hands of people throughout the country and trying to take them all away will be about as effective as making all drugs illegal. Its an endless war and you'll never stop either, you can only hope to do your best containing them. If this country wants an effective method of gun control, this is my idea. All weapons, handguns, rifle, shotgun, etc must be registered to a licensed weapon owner. To become a licensed weapon holder I feel you need to do more than just fill out an application and submit to a background check. I believe that if you are going to own a weapon you must be trained and qualify on that weapon in a class where you not only learn to operate that weapon, but properly and effectively shoot a target and safely store the weapon. Also, it might not hurt to have to pass a psyche evaluation. Hey, I had to do it to be in the police academy, no reason any other nut shouldn't have to to own a weapon.
  3. quinn might be a more recognized name, but I don't see him as any better than Fitz.
  4. Is it lonely on fantasy island?
  5. The guy was brought in for a look after visiting other teams this week. Teams do this on a regular basis with players like this. The guy was a 5th round pick a year ago but tore his ACL in the last preseason game for the Bucs. Who is out there right now that you think the Bills would be better served having in for a quick workout?
  6. Ugh so sick of hearing about Mallett. After watching the QB prospects this weekend no one stood out as being NFL ready talent. Sorry Mallett and Luck fans.
  7. I second the motion. The title led me to believe there was going to be some sort of wardrobe malfunction. Thanks for getting my hopes up and shattering them all withing 3 minutes
  8. I dropped 20 lbs on p90x and I probably could have lost even more if I pushed harder and didnt miss some workouts. Best advice i can give is towards the eating. its best to cook in bulk and use gladware to store individual meals. makes for less work in the kitchen and burnout from cooking. Andrew do you have a link for this crossfit? need something to try while taking a break from p90
  9. Well he did attend one of the finest public high schools in the state of Indiana.
  10. I agree, Manning's nose hair is quite marketable and companies like Gillette pay a lot of money to market their nose hair care products to those who want to shave like Peyton. Perhaps a project like this would be best undertaken by the NFL Network as a premium subscription broadcast. You know something useful other than their NFL RedZone crap they got going now
  11. Is it just me, or would television broadcasts and viewer knowledge take a turn for the better using a Madden style camera view from behind the QB? I think viewers would get to see more of how a play develops and get a better idea of what the players are seeing from their perspective. Granted I know this would be a tough option as stadiums are configures for sideline style broadcasts
  12. Rettata, if you have the time...
  13. Unless Carl can play OT, I don't think he'll be much help to the Bills this year
  14. Dib, your best bet to do this is to download Audacity, connect a walkman/cassette player to your soundcard in the mic port, and record each song one by one. Or you could record each side and then cut and paste the sound files into individual wavs. You may want to use a mono 1/8" jack cable to do the recordings, unless your sound card is capable of recording in stereo. A mono jack will have one plastic band on the metal plug, whereas a stereo jack will have 2. If you have the option to, try it with both and see which produces a better sound file. Option 3...make me a copy and I'll take some time in my studio and try to get you a good reproduction.
  15. ah, just migrated it seems. Well good to hear he's alive. Sorry don't have access to billszone. One Bills message board is enough negativity for me
  16. I agree. 11ish perhaps?
  17. the t38 is the honda accord of fighter jets. you learn in em, beat the crap out of them for 200000 miles and they still keep running
  18. Golf outing was great again, just make sure you bring plenty of balls or a weed whacker for diamond hawk as the rough is deep and thick. Had a great time though, can't wait to do it again next year.
  19. It was very laid back for a home opener, especially against Miami. No one seemed to be up for the game, including the players. Couple incidents I saw, One lady arrested for taking off her shirt at Gate 8 entrance...and yes she deserved to be arrested for that One drunk girl making fun of other Bills fans because their jerseys were pink and grey which, "Weren't Bills colors stupid!!!"
  20. Hey guys, the food was great at the Tailgate, just wished I had gotten there much earlier so I could have met a few more people. Ah well as we say in Buffalo, "There's always next year."
  21. anyone got a rough idea of a name? can do some investigating
  22. Wow, still going on this one I see. I WIN!!! Quick close the thread!!!
