So continue to ignore the root of the problem (medical costs) and instead hack away at the branches (make sure everybody has insurance). Sounds like a great plan of attack. Once everybody with a pulse is hooked up as a revenue provider to the medical industry via insurance premiums (I'm seeing scenes from "The Matrix" here), do we *THEN* do something about medical costs?

Why is it in this whole debate very few acknowledge the elephant in the room? The arguments go round and round about who should pay, how they should pay, how to allocate the costs among the population, but very few look seriously at why the costs are so frigging high!? A big fat medical leech has attached itself to the US economy, and we're all trying to figure out the best ways to let it continue sucking blood?

Thanks. 2 cases on order.

Jon, got a collection of beef jerky, hand warmers, gum and AA batteries together, just need to get off my butt and get a flat rate box from the post office and get them sent. What's the deadline?

I was at the park longboarding a couple of weeks ago and saw a guy with fat-tired mongoose similar to that Surly above. Rolling resistance going over grass/sand in that thing is high, you will definitely want some strong quads. Not sure if the autogyro comment above is just a road warrior referencing joke or not, but those things need landing strips to take off and land from. They can't land or take off straight up or down, FYI.

Never mind, just bought the DC40 deal I linked above. Looks like I'll be selling my used DC07 shortly.

I might be interested. Is it the "animal" variant?

Not sure if anyone is still looking, but Dyson DC40 for sale $279.99 shipped: http://1sale.com/home-family/other/dyson-dc40-vacuum-cleaner/

Looking sharp, Aprilia is really getting into the angular look. Good luck with it!

Never mind, finally found them via google, couldn't find them in previous searches: http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2012/11/27/electronic-deer-deterrent-could-prevent-over-1-million-accidents-each-year/

Can some one tell me what this is? I've seen these for a couple of years now when driving on Eisenhower parkway between the Short Hills Mall and the intersection with South Orange avenue. They are mounted on stakes on the sides of the road and faintly flash blue at night. My pet theory is that they're designed to scare deer away, but I otherwise don't have a clue.

Suicidal Tendencies - A Little Each Day. Thank you sir!

Good luck to them! I've stopped by your blog a couple of times Anthony, you guys are hard core.

Jon, please PM an address I can ship to (Morris Co. here)

In, thanks all for the info.

Call him back and ask him for the upper serial #....

I hope you got the upper at a SUPER discount, because I bet you'll have ZERO recourse with that guy if there is any issue with the upper. I would have flat told him to find another buyer.

I just got a marketing email about this yesterday: http://center-of-mass.com/Store_ShotLock.htm

Wow, a gun-friendly article in a NJ newspaper? Nice work! The article does have a factual inaccuracy though:

That's some pretty Tacrame. (You know, like macrame but tactical, get it?) Not sure I'd want that for a sling, but I'd use it for rifle bag slings or gear bag handles.

Thanks again. About 3/4 of the way through the first one, enjoying it.

I'm dying to know 'cause I'm digging that song...

Which Suicidal Tendencies song is 8:24 based on?
