    Arizona, and 9 year-old and an Uzi. Sounds about right...

    I'm sure you've probably heard by now... some nine year old girl was at some range in Arizona learning how to fire an Uzi submachine gun (because let's be honest, what 9 year old doesn't need that skill in their arsenal) when she couldn't handle the recoil, and it went over her shoulder shooting...

    Surplus military vehicles and the police...

    Based on everything that has now been released, it sure looks like the cop will be looking at 2nd degree murder at worst, and voluntary manslaughter at best. Let's assume that the kid did come after the cop in his vehicle. And let's also assume that the cop got a shot off from inside his...

    Surplus military vehicles and the police...

    So as some of you know, or may not have known, over the past decade the US government is taking older, decommissioned military vehicles and donating them at no cost to any police force who apply for them. When I first read about it, it didn't really bother me one way or the other. I figured in...

    Roll Call

    I was here, but then I went there. To do that thing, with that one person. That one time. You know what I'm talking about.

    Too much sunlight a bad thing for a tank?

    I'm currently in the process of trying to start a new 90-120 gallon reef tank that I want to keep on the wall of the dining area of my bakery. I'm starting to get concerned about the prospect however, due to the amount of natural sunlight the room gets. The room basically has four 10'x4'...

    Back on the Saddle...

    Alright. So lets say I get a 90 gallon tank this time. When you have a protein skimmer, how exactly is that integrated into the tank? As in, is there a water line from the tank into the skimmer, and then a return line back to the main tank? Do you have to have a special drilled tank, or one...

    Back on the Saddle...

    I'm not exactly new to SW, I'm just several years removed. I had a 55, then upgraded to a 90 reef and fish tank. At the time, I didn't have a sump, refugium, QT, skimmer, or anything else. I basically had day and night T5 lighting, a basic filter, heater, and three powerheads. That was it...

    Does anyone deal in scrap metal/materials?

    So I just had a deep freezer take a poo-poo on me at the shop. Last time I lost a fridge, I took it to scrap the thing myself, and I think I got like $8 and some change for it. So this time around, I just posted on Craigslist that I had a freezer I wanted to get rid of, free to the first...

    Is this a good or bad thing?

    In order for oil to A) become affordable, or B) stop using it all together and move on to new technology, one thing would have to happen... which never will. The people who make trillions of dollars from it would have to take the "people and country are more important than money" approach...

    Saltwater Ink?

    I used something called "H2Ocean Foam" after my first session and it healed up really well. After the second session, and third, I didn't really bother with it much, and looking back, it healed more slowly with more scabbing. So this time, after the fourth session I am going to use it...

    Saltwater Ink?

    I'll be getting the blue water background added in two weeks, and he is also gonna touch up any spots that need work after they heal. Where he did real heavy, dark colors... it took a lot longer to heal. Like the oranges, yellows, and purples were completely healed in a week. The dark stuff...

    Saltwater Ink?

    I didn't really out grow the guitar. I mean I still am the lead singer in my band. I just didn't like the actual composition of the tattoo itself. I got it when I was 22, and broke. So there wasn't much to it (as you can see in the "before" picture). As far as the aqua scape goes, I'm open water...

    Saltwater Ink?

    I'm paying $150 a session, planning on five sessions total. After it's all done, tip included it'll be around $850-$900.
