Seriously tho, what an idiot....

WHHHAAAAT!!!! no way! that's insane! the guard rail is the only thing that made it.

They almost made it too! I was trying to figure out how they were driving under the water? i mean i know the truck has a snorkel..but what about the people>?

geesus, just what we need....

We let our snowblower sit with gas in the carb one year and it destroyed it. Had to completely rebuild it.. learned my lesson, i now drain everything before it goes into storage. I think the biggest issue is just making sure you carb is clean, you can drain old fuel. But the best option is to just run it dry. Do generators have the pin on the carb to drain them?

I think if his father purchases it to build it, then gifts it he would be fine. No one is going to bother a father and son doing a "straw purchase" if they legally transfer everything. Not saying its the greatest idea, but i think they got bigger fish to fry.

Ehh, i'm no looking to ruin anyone's day, just piss them off. But tailgaters always get the break check.

I don't think the officer did anything wrong, put that grandma in the right lane where she belongs! I am and will always be a true believer of "keep Right Pass left". We don't need people swinging into the right lanes just to go around someone when they can cruize up one lane. People like to sit in the left lane for some retarded reason. In fact when i see no one on the road and someone sitting in the left lane and refuses to get over i have no choice but to sit behind them and flash my lights and honk my horn, passing on the right is illegal. The autoban is specifically set up this way to minimize accident ride the left lane and use your left blinker to signal those in front to either speed up or get out of the way. Besides, a good radar detector works better then any gold badge in the window. I guarantee that most drivers dont even know they can get a ticket for sitting in the left lane. If i was a cop, i would pull people over more for this and failing to use blinkers. If you have ever seen the movie "shoot em up" the best scene is when he gets pissed at the guy for not using blinker..

I tried to get down to the river and couldn't even get passed all the downed trees. I took it as a sign to turn back.. tons of trees sitting on power lines and accidents just waiting to happen.

Keeping water out of my basement is more of a per-cautionary thing. Clean gutters sandbags around the windows and simple hand dug drainage channels work wonders here. We have a dry well under our drive way and for the garage, it got really backed up and couldnt drain the volume all at once and started to flood the garage, our sump pump kept the level low, and once the rain stopped the water disappeared down the drains. We live on a hill and our neighbors are slightly more elevated and we were in the path of the flowing water, it was just a matter of directing it around the house. I'm sure people are really depending on there pumps right now and for those w/ out power even more on the generators to run the pumps.

Check out youtube, some one posted a video of the pompton lake dam, its is pouring water into the town right now.. video of the dam http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v49rjw5WqFI video of the street(HAMBURG TPK) just below the dam They were prepping the damn all week, making sure it would hold, honestly tho, nothing in this world was gonna stop the water from pouring over it. I live about 3 miles from the damn, up in the hills past oakland. I tried to get down there just now to see this for myself and couldnt even get through oakland the trees are down on almost every street.

wow, you must need 3 guys just to transport that thing! AHH!! you use a round to attach the barrel!! kinda makes sense.. less tools and more ammo to carry!

they do have "wet/underwater" drying sealant, but i'm not sure how it compares to the regular stuff, or if it holds up while drying under pressure.

I've been seeing a ton of comments in regards to how this was all blown out of proportion, but the reality is, just because you didnt get hit hard doesn't mean others didn't. Tons of people in NJ got hit really bad, and that is the reality. Just like everyone predicted, the flooding was very bad. Pompton lake dam is dumping water into Pompton lakes right now, they are under water. Im grateful the storm didnt bring the damaging winds to my area and my thoughts go out to those dealing with flooding. Update: just took a drive around town and Holy-crap! my street made out OK, but there are trees down everywhere!! the power is out for half the town, and i just herd neighboring towns shut down the power and might be out all week due to the flooding and trees.

Well, clearly I'm no ammunition guru like yourself. My original post was a sporadic response about something i had learned a little about, i guess clearly not enough, it wasnt even 100% serious and i was hoping someone would enlighten the subject further. If you have knowledge about what i was talking about or trying to, then im all ears, sarcastic responses don't really add to the conversation. I'm not here to say my word is god and true.. i will dig up anything that makes me right, im here to learn, not pick fights. If you read my following posts unbiasedly then you probably would have noticed that i was more interested in learning about the effects of different kinds of Incendiary/HE bullets while trying to find what i was refrencing, god only knows what crap i watched on tv and how true it is. The only point i was trying to really make this whole time is that there are 50 cal. bullets that pack a serious punch in respect to armor. I sensed your sarcasm in your first response and told myself not to bother, but i was more curious to learn about what i was trying to get across. The world is full of a-holes and i have learned to live amongst them. Everyone has an off day. No hard feelings, i get much worse on xbox live anyway.

Very true, but we seem to, well, run around with our hair on fire when it happens. This time at least they are taking per-cautions.

Most of southern Florida barely has heating, i know my dad's has a heat pump. But the point i was making is that they aren't nearly prepared to deal with the cold like we are. and vice verse with hurricanes. When they get a strait week of freezing temps its a big deal, we deal with that all winter long..

When ever i find a "too good a deal to pass up" on a BH serpa holster they never have the one i need, and when they do its lefty..

Town design has been the topic all summer around here because of the constant flooding. But then again look at it from the opposite side. Florida towns and houses are hurricane proofed, or at least to the best of their ability, but when it gets below freezing there they have nothing, most houses don't even have heating. its quite the opposite in comparison. We dont really worry about hurricanes up here and consequently were far less prepared. After this year's spring season people should have a good idea of where they stand in respect to flooding.

This is basically what i was getting at. However, if your area is prone to flooding it's probably a good idea to take some precautions. The ground is semi-saturated around me, its been raining on and off all week, and its down pouring as we speak. My biggest fear and probably only one at this point are falling trees. This is a one day storm, people wont be stuck in there houses unless they are surrounded by water, besides i know and work at where the local food warehouse is people should be prepping the house for disaster not stocking up on food and water. I already put sandbags around the cellar windows.

I'm not even sure how to respond to this... So your telling me people should ignore this "blown out of proportion" state of emergency. Many towns in the area are notorious for flooding, should they just stay in there houses because NJ officials always blow everything out of proportion? is it smart when your house floods every year, and when the Nation weather authorities say biggest hurricane in decades will hit your area hard and you decided NJ blows everything out of proportion ill just stay cause it wont be that bad, when in fact small storms have flooded these areas let alone a massive hurricane. The problem is, towns have already been evacuated this year due to flooding from small storms, what exactly do you think will happen again, lets take a little logic here and say that it will probably be worse. Now, im not saying go out and clear the shelves, but use your head and understand where you live.. The worse i have to worry about is power going out and trees falling, but just a town over they have to deal with 8+ feet of water at there door steps. people back yards run against the ramapo river, which floods out 202 every year and is literally eating away at peoples yards... I mean yeah i guess when its your time to go that's it, but why hang around when you get the warning... this aint no tornado 4min warning here.... its a hurrican that will be scaling 80% of the entire east coast. FEMA already started moving resources into NJ... now let be realistic again they are just about the only ones who underestimate everything.

and of course we pick up your helicopter charter bill.

Honestly, if you've been following the weather the past year or two you wouldnt be saying this... first off this is expected to be one of the worse hurricanes to hit the east coast in the past century. Add the fact that we have had severe flooding episodes in NJ just this past year, and they werent even hurricanes. People have already been evacuated on town scale levels and i personally know people that were stuck in hotels for an entire week just this past spring. Many towns in my area are doomed right now, luckily i live on top of a hill.

Huh, ability to accept mags over 15rds? nothing in NJ has the ability to accept larger then 15rd mags cause they dont exist here ,detachable mags are not on the list they are criteria for the list. A semi-auto with out a detachable magazine automatically disqualifies it from the list. So w/ a detachable mag, you are left with one option from the list, this case a pistol grip. End result is the same, no collapsible stock. If the rifle sported an internal mag, you could put every single evil feature on there.

Believe me, i read it entirely and was completely lost, i had to look on another forum and have someone pick it apart for me.
