Or a ziploc bag on the passenger seat--although I wouln't recommend it: no one needs to know you are transporting so keep them out of sight. But I think it satisfies the letter of the law.

I don't think our American football lends itself well to a large number of games--it is such a physical game that the players would be getting injured all the time if they played a lot more games

That will happen when you face a superior opponent--they looked like Pop Warner!

That was one of the best--and it was a "walk-on" so to speak. It was one of the spots submitted to Doritos by amateurs!

And the pistachio head commercial was pretty good too

Yeah actually that one was pretty good.

Who said anything about hating anything? I don't think it is the same thing when we honor an Olympic champion and their country by playing their nation's anthem on our soil. How is that the same thing? I don't really hate coke (I mean I do not like the drink, but nothing to do with coke ads or politics). Coke can and should do what it believes is in the best interest of its shareholders. I just think the commercial was probably meant to be controversial (so more people would talk about coke). I thought the spot was lame, but I guess it worked because here I am talking about coke ;-)

I think you should do it! As long as your employer is okay with it, what is the big deal? And as long as your employer is not the post office ;-)

I just assumed the different languages were from people in other countries singing about America. If they were U.S. citizens in the U.S., why would they be singing in another language? Wow, now I am pissed about that commercial.

Come on, Manning set a record for pass completions--he has got to be damned happy about that! Especially to do that against the legion of boom.

I could not boycott this year--had to support the Hawks. I did not realize that Denver was not going to play though ;-) I thought the Seahawks v. forty-niner game was much better, but at least the Seahawks looked great, dominating tonight. About time we get a championship! I was underwhelmed with the commercials--really disappointing this year. I think the best commercial I saw (I missed several) was the Doritos time-machine--and that was one of the amateur entries!

Not sure if homeowner insurance would cover this as a theft. I believe you can deduct losses from theft on taxes and recoup a portion of it that way.

I have one that I only use for cash at ATMs, but I am reconsidering that now too--problem is, banks are reluctant to give you an ATM-only card. They really try to push the debit cards.

I had one of those $9.84 charges on my Chase card in December. I contacted them to have it removed and issue a new card, then today I see an article in USAToday about this! I have had at least 10-15 incidents with various cards, but the CC company always cover the fraudulent charges. I do not use a debit card, but I understand you have some limited liability with those?

I like the siracha, but I do get tired of it pretty quick--so I use it occasionally. Does anyone make a hot siracha? Mrs. Renfro's Ghost Pepper salsa is decent, as well as Dave's Insanity. I tried another Ghost Pepper hot sauce (Melinda's Naga Jolokia) that was excellent as well. When I visit the Yucatan I always get "Xnipec" (I Mayan xni = nose, pec = dog). I love the simplicity of this sauce--just habanero (cruda o asado), onions, lime juice, maybe some cilantro. And the habeneros are reliably pretty hot there. Wonderful, simple flavor mix. I recently bought an "Ass Kicken" Habenero peanut butter, but I did not find it to be as ass kicken as I had expected (based on the ass kicking claims of the label). But it was okay

Oh and I would NOT store HP in the SDB, as there is no legal exemption for transporting HP between lands that you own or posses.

NJ code does not say you have to travel by automobile. IIRC, it does not address mode of transportation other than to say "OR locked in the trunk of the vehicle." So if you park on the street, or normally park in your neighbor's driveway (perhaps your driveway just got seal-coated), well then that is your direct path home. No violation IMO. I also have an equity stake in my bank, but I do not think that is even required. Again: I do not recommend this or practice it without doing some research and legal counsel, and I do not want to be the test case. But in a pinch, I would consider it.

IIRC, I am asked "Where are you heded" about half the time. But it is a pretty small sample size. If you say "I'm going to the range." how is that PC for search? OR If you say "I am going to Fort Dix," or Pennsylvania. 1) That is not a lie (assuming the range is lcated in the town you say), it just lacks specificity. 2) I don't think he can just decide to search your car at his discretion.

e. Nothing in subsections b., c. and d. of N.J.S.2C:39-5 shall be construed to prevent a person keeping or carrying about his place of business, residence, premises or other land owned or possessed by him, any firearm, or from carrying the same, in the manner specified in subsection g. of this section, from any place of purchase to his residence or place of business, between his dwelling and his place of business, between one place of business or residence and another when moving, or between his dwelling or place of business and place where such firearms are repaired, for the purpose of repair. For the purposes of this section, a place of business shall be deemed to be a fixed location. It may be a stretch, but I would say a leased SDB falls under "other land owned or possessed" therefore it is an exempted place and it is legal to transport between ones residence and "other land owned or possessed." So it is not even a deviation--it is the legally exempt destination. I am not planning on being the test case for this, but I think this is a plausible, reasonable interpretation. If I needed secure storage and nothing else available, I would consider this as a viable, secure storage option.

IANAL and I do not know the law on this. But I doubt the law even addresses it, although it would probably be within the bank's right to curtail what you may store in their SDB. I would not be surprised if BofA prohibited. I asked the manager at Wells Fargo and he said it was fine. If I were to do it, I would probably field strip and put everything in a box. With the SDB there are two keys---you retain one of them and the bank has the other. Both keys are required to open the box, then you are left alone in a private room to put whatever you wish in the box. If you disappear and stop paying the bill, the bank will drill out your lock core and I assume your box falls under abandoned property laws. Transporting (not carry) a handgun into the bank may violate the letter of NJ law--but maybe not if you could reasonably assume that the leased SDB is a little bit of land that you posses. I would bet that this is pretty common--even in NJ.

I totally agree, but I am looking for someplace with a warm climate and lower odds of hurricanes. AZ is high on my list, but I am considering Austin/San Antonio area as well.

I know Texas is not the greatest state for gun ownership, but at least you can generally CCW there and it is pretty easy to get a permit AND the general population does not think you are crazy for owning guns. It sure beats NJ, but AZ is better.

Good point--we are screwed if Christie is replaced by almost any Democrat.

If you choose to look at it that way, but I see it as glass .001% full This actually gives me more hope than I had before--at least it is a crack in the door. I mean if there are judges out there who will recognize the right to self-defense, and accept a CCW right (with some burdens of training, background check, etc.) AND understand or can be convinced the current regime is a de facto BAN. They would logically have to make some allowance. Nappen has a case before NJ Supreme court (Pantano) which could help. Another possibility is if the CCW reciprocity law gets passed (obviously under the next non-Democrat administration), that would likely force NJ to do something regarding CCW.

The Yamato Kuro neko? If it offends you I can change it.
