Pointless?
Having a way of charging your phone is a paramount concern. In a red dawn or some other nonsense scenario its pointless as the wireless networks run on generators until fuel is out, however, in a storm a cellphone is an asset. Post sandy, I used my phone for everything. Kept me informed and sane.

Handgun storage in a safety deposit box?
There are FFLs that specialize in long term storage. Probably more expensive but may cause less headaches.

Some fun on Facebook
It makes you look ignorant and stupid unless you point out that it's satire and why it's not okay to infringe on any rights, including the 2A. If it was rewritten to follow NJ 2A rules it would be a bit better, but still something that sends the wrong message. It's anti-Muslim crap that makes gun owners look like a bunch of hicks in K1500's with Coors Light and AR15's. I don't care who anyone does/doesn't like. I really don't care if someone is gay or hates Muslims or anything of the sort, just try not to live up to the image that the media portrays of us.

Hey hey hey... I said I like... Colt XM Gray (along with intact bayonet lugs and three prong flash hiders, hooray PA) ...and walnut and parkerization.... ...and it happens to be the only GM product I'll ever own. Its okay though, this was built FOR your tax dollars, not WITH your tax dollars.

Time to start a new gun group in NJ???
302w replied to brocglock23's topic in NJ2AS - New Jersey Second Amendment Society's Discussion ForumAnytime there is a group of people like that... There will be problems unless there is the right person running it. How many people complain about this place? Between the market place nobody likes, BLF getting banned, Ray Ray, etc. Not knocking anyone either. But there will always be drama/problems. Hell, range E Boards are always awful. NJ2AS lost its purpose Imo.

You must like government bailouts then

T-Mobile users
T-Mobile is okay. I get good coverage through most of NJ, and all in all T-Mobile has treated us well. The only places I have issues are in the sticks of Warren County and around Monroe County PA. Verizon definitely has better coverage. My family has used it probably 10 plus years

National Concealed Carry Reciprocity Bill
Regardless, it would be pure gold to see people OC'ing in NJ.

Hydro graphics
Eh.. I don't hate camouflage, but a nice rifle with a walnut stock and deep bluing is better any day. I'll tolerate camo on a hunting rifle but it looks silly. I hate ARs that are in funny colors. Furniture is an exception. An AR15 with hydro graphic carbon fiber would be haneous.

Seen it on paintball guns. Looks kinda tacky IMO. Firearms should be blued, black, parkerized, nicked, stainless, or Colt XM gray.

Non-blade EDC items
What do you guys carry everyday other than knives, flashlights, keys, and possibly guns? Currently I carry a bottle opener S-Biner, an eGear Pico flashlight (largely replaced by my Galaxy S3's flashlight), and a Gerber Shard which was given to me. I'd like to pick up a Swiss Tech Utilikey because I broke mine, a Tritium keyfob(I love tritium), and I would like to blacksmith a prybar like the Shard. I also picked up an S30v Kershaw Blur but that goes in my pocket. What I carry: What I want: As for the Tritium keyfob, I'm not sure yet. Tritium is cool stuff though. I wish I could put night sights on my S&W M64 just because. Not my pics obviously.

Exercise Gurus- Ellipticals?
I don't know anything about which machines are better or worse, but I'll second the notion that gyms are worth it. $10 or $15 a month isn't bad, and you can also use a bike there or any other machines they may have. I imagine that a bike is probably easier on your knees anyway. I know I rotate between bikes/treadmills/ellipticals because I get bored using one machine for cardio.

Weird Remington .45 ammo
I had a similar situation. Bought a 100 round box labeled 45 ACP JHP, turned out to be FMJ with one round having a caved in nose. Wasn't a JHP, but more of a deformed FMJ. Called Remington, they freaked out, and sent me a free box 50 round box of 45 FMJ and urged me to properly dispose of the messed up round. I find it interesting that the bullets look brass plated. They called me several times throughout the process checking up on me. Every time they asked if there was anything else they could help me with, I would say "a 1911 to shoot this 45 with would be nice....". No dice.

Check out what I impulse bought. I couldn't resist
It came in the mail yesterday. In the package I got my 30 stickers, a tea party handbook, a sticker from the website, a pledge allegiance sticker, and an American Flag sticker. Cool beans.

My first/new EDC
Be careful with those Kershaws.. I'm on my third. My first was a rainbow leek. Lasted me two years IIRC before I lost it. Second was a G10/S30v leek, that lasted one year. Now I'm on a S30v blur. The leeks fell out of my pocket. I still love leeks though. For $30 for a base model on ebay, it can't be beat. I don't think there is a cheaper American made knife.

Musings of a Newbie
Construction engineering tech. We're 2nd floor GITC. And since you're ME, I'll say that Samardzic is one of the best professors I've had at NJIT.

Lucky SOB. I'll be there for a little bit after that. I actually have a class with Behi next semester even though I'm not ME.

Where did you get your degree? Stevens, Rutgers, NJIT?

Ear protection
Custom made shooter plugs are an option too. You need to go to an audiologist and they can make them for you. My dad has a pair, and I've been meaning to get them but I haven't had time.

Am I beating myself up?
I'm in a similar boat. I've had my face kicked in the proverbial dirt enough times, weather it was getting murdered by thermodynamics classes, losing jobs, acquiring funds (or a lack thereof) for school, whatever. Damn right I've considered every option for quitting school and finding a different career path. The way I see it is, I've invested enough time and money that it would be stupid to quit now. Secondly, and more importantly, I have it easier than millions of people. As crappy as it's been, it's not that bad. Biggest motivation for me was not graduating on time. I mean, my field isn't easy and my school has a 7 year average for a 4 year degree, but I make no excuses. I have only myself to blame for all things in my life. Second biggest motivator was trying to make enough cash for school, which I pulled off working 65ish hours a week. College isn't that bad. The time it takes to get a degree is nothing in the grand scheme of things.
