  1. Holy cow....how long does it take you to pass someone? www.FourWheelerHB.com
  2. People who drive too slow in the fast lane. Seriously... move over 1 lane so you're not making my drive more dangerous than it needs to be. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  3. Quite a lot like Germany - a bit warmer in the summer and not quite as cold in the winter. I don't think we've got any positions open right now, though I can check ... whattaya do? Currently - Small business management but I am versatile and a quick learner. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  4. I forgot to mention....the bike had to lean 15 degrees to do it! It was bad. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  5. http://www.bose.com/controller?url=/shop_online/headphones/noise_cancelling_headphones/quietcomfort_2/index.jsp www.FourWheelerHB.com
  6. We coulda fixed it faster on our own. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  7. So that's why she wanted my address to mail me cow stuff! So glad I decided against it. I hate vacuuming www.FourWheelerHB.com
  8. No...I'd move but damn it the weather is sooooo nice. Actually I really am considering moving. How's the weather out there in Bosnia and can you hook up a job? www.FourWheelerHB.com
  9. lol last summer I saw a girl on a crotch rocket that could only put 1 foot down. It looked ridiculously unsafe. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  10. With regard to DC you are correct but change her post to say CA instead of DC then she is correct. CA gun laws are emotionally based rather than factually based. This is where I take issue with CA. The lack of intelligent, logical, factual based legislation. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  11. I agree with your hypothesis so I was just curious. Besides I just saw your post in the other thread so apparently it does matter. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  12. What's your position on gun control? www.FourWheelerHB.com
  13. Being a shooter as well as a gamer, especially of the first person variety, I 100% agree with that statement. The subject of video games and their affect on children really does need its own thread. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  14. Its extremely expensive for a novice rider. I bought my bike brand new in 02 and they wanted $350 per month. If it weren't for State Farm Insurance, who only looks at driving record ($39 per month), I would not be the rider I am today. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  15. Motorcycle Safety Course You should probably take it with her. As far as the bike? Seems a bit expensive and heavy for a first bike. I agree with shropshire. edited to add: although I think a 250 cc would be managable for a first bike IF she is a good driver. If she isn't a good driver and has multiple accidents regardless of fault...DO NOT let her get on a bike. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  16. I'm just saying. Have a sense of humor damn it. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  17. I prefer Jessica Alba to missiles. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  18. Throw a shoe at a country's leader?...no big deal. Ghost ride your car at 3 kph on an empty public street and you're endangering the public. Got it. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  19. Sadly the loaded chamber indicator on the Kinber (thanks JR!) is radically smaller than other models which have been denied due to an indicator not meeting requirements. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  20. I wasn't just responding to your point, however a quick search revealed these pistol that have just been approved in CA, I presume they met whatever requirements CA has including the one you claim cannot be met, but I didn't check. Original link http://caag.state.ca.us/firearms/forms/pdf/recentlyadded.pdf Kimber Stnls Ultra Carry II Freedom Defender / Stainless Steel, Alum. Alloy .45 ACP Pistol 3" 2/13/2009 Smith & Wesson M&P 45 (Mag. Safety & Thumb Safety) Dark Earth Bro / Stainless Steel, Polymer .45 ACP Pistol 4.5" 2/13/2009 Glock 22 - FBI 100 Yr. Commemorative (Blk) / Steel, Polymer .40 S&W Pistol 4.49" 1/30/2009 Nice find! Any chance you can find a pic of the loaded chamber indicator on any of those weapons? You seem to be better at it than I am. You have proven me wrong. I shall now go commit seppoku. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  21. You must have missed it then Hanson’s Springfield XD-45 was on the government’s approved roster of guns, but hers was black and silver, the attorney said. Also I found a review. The XD guns are available in three different barrel lengths: the 3.1-inch barrel is called the Sub-Compact, the 4-inch barrel is the Service Model, and the 5-inch gun is the Tactical Model. Shooters also have a choice of finishes and can opt for the black model, the OD green, or the Bi-tone, which consists of a stainless slide mounted on a black frame. http://www.shootingtimes.com/handgun_reviews/springfieldxd_061206/ I do agree the drop test argument is rather moot at this point. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  22. This is not about improved safety features. Springfield have submitted newer models of XD which have been improved with internal safeties and they have been denied. This is an outright ban. I have spent the last 10 minutes or so trying to find an example of a legal loaded chamber indicator required by CA law. I failed. Please give it a shot as you may have better luck. What we have now is a list of approximately 1,300 semi-auto handguns which are legal and no longer can be improved with new safety features thanks to the new law. I do appreciate your point but it has absolutely no bearing on this subject. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  23. Its says Forged Stainless Steel, Satin finish on the Springfield Armory website. http://www.springfield-armory.com/xd.php?version=70 2. Per the new reports, the lady was denied due to the color of the pistol, not the presence (or lack thereof) of certain devices required by Cali law. That's because whoever denied her registration has no clue to why certain models are not legal. The same model (bi-tone) in 9mm and .40 is legal in CA so should be in DC as well. lol I've been trying to tell you guys. www.FourWheelerHB.com
  24. Am I the only person that noticed B.O.B. is the only one without an exclamation point? www.FourWheelerHB.com
  25. So it makes no difference to you guys that the fact the slide is stainless steel has absolutely nothing to do with why it isn't legal? www.FourWheelerHB.com
