Welcome fellow Washington township member!

Welcome! Also from Washington township!

When I get my permits in I will be down! Been trying find a certain gun, may have luck with you.

I have USAA and like it. Only had them so no clue on anyone else. I think my girlfriend has geico and she seems to like them.

So for the past couple days I was having issues getting on to the site. I would type the address in and it would say "server expired, if you are the domain owners renew the domain". Anyone else get this and know what happened? I was still getting emails to posts that were being commented on so I was confused.

Well I went with Rothman Institute and had my surgery yesterday. I will say I made a great choice. The complete staff their yesterday was amazing. I will not lie I am the WORST person when it comes to needles or hospital, those are my only two fears in life. They were there for me 100% of the way. Even after surgery every doctor, has called me last night to check up on me, and even today. Shows they care for their patients to the max. So far everything is going good, tomorrow I get this tube out of my hip (because I used my own tissue there's a lot more pain so the tube drips drugs directly to my nerve that runs down my leg so my leg is numb) and then I can move around more. All in all so far everythig great and I will recommend Rothman.

BLF- I deal with a decent amount of rescues/shelters/ individuals who save dogs/cats all ages. I have some business cards of some places at work that I can get you tomorrow, one is a boxer rescue I know. I know I have seen a decent amount of puppies at camden/gloucester county shelters. Never go off their website they don't update them often. I will also call some people I know who do a lot of rescuing. I saved a pitbull puppy not to long ago and fostered it for a couple days till Rutgers95 (from here lol) wanted the pup. Edit: Fassa friends boxer rescue. That's the one boxer rescue.

While at a gun store today the guy was talking to me how he has his own steel plates in his backyard where he will shoot at time to time. It got me to wonder how does someone go about doing this legally? Do you need certain amount of property? Does it have to be with a certain round? My girlfriends parents house has a lot of acres and during the warm days it is VERY common to hear gun shots.

Potholes are horrible like everyone is saying. I have 22" rims on my truck so if am EXTRA careful (although the rims are crap, not trying get brand new till summer). At night I drive slow to make sure I see the potholes, and if a cop was behind me you'd think I was drunk because I swerve and dodge each hole I see. Thankfully I'm a truck so once in awhile a patch a grass is my road if its bad, which I only see that out where my girlfriends parents live.

Done, called on work phone, think I can call on my cell phone to get 2 votes? Lol

Your guys tanks are gorgeous! Hope one day I came so a big reef setup! Cmor- I'll shoot you a PM

If it is a male turtle, the biggest tank you would need is 90g when full growth. You could go bigger but not smaller. Just make sure he has a good basking spot to get fully dry on. If you do release him in pond a couple things could happen; 1) death for him as he never hibernated, 2) he can also contaminate the pond because it humans have owned it (I know sounds corny but could happen), 3) death for him again but by predators (racoons/birds/cats) also sick humans and cars. He will explore and since not familiar will most likely end up leaving area.

This is going be a LONG reply, but figure I am going lay it all out on the table and get some good input. So recently some of you know I tore my ACL again from slipping and falling on ice/snow. I went to my original doctor at South Jersey Sport Medicine, where he had me get X-Rays and a MRI. After gettthing this done and him looking at it he told me that I once again completely tore my ACL and need a replacement. Now I tore it a little last year where he went in to remove that piece, but in January I just tore what was left of it so now it needs a replacement, unless I wanted to do PT and wear a brace for the rest of my life he said, but since I am young (25) he stated surgery is best because I will heel faster yada yada. I talked to my gfs uncle about this who has had some shoulder and minor knee surguries and he told me to go to Rothman Institute and see his guy who is Paul Marchetto (he does surguries for the Eagles, Flyers, and Phantoms). I went and saw him this Monday and brought my X-Rays and MRI's with me. After he saw it he told me yes I do need a ACL replacement because I did fully tare the ACL again. BUT he mentioned somethings my original doctor didn't mention. He first stated to me in the X-Ray he can see that where they drill a hole into your bone to put the ACL through, the bone normally grows inward which binds the bone to the ACL, some cases it doesn't and will cause a ceist. In my lovely case that is what happens and he showed me where in the X-Ray. He told me he will need to do a bone graph to fill the hole and make sure the ACL bonds better. Another thing he mentioned that my original guy didn't was that I have the option of two things, get a donor part or use one of my own. They remove a small piece of the muscle behind my knee, that grows back on its own, take it out braid in and use that as my ACL because it tends to bond better. Paul recommends that over donor for any young person and athlete, in my case I am the young category. He also mention that my maniscus is slightly worn on the sides where he would go in a clean it up, and maybe will some weight lose that pain will go away, or I will be contacting you NYMETSFAN lol. My original doctor mention it might be torn but won't know till he goes in. Todays comes for my post appointment before surgury with my original guy. I told him I got a second opinion, he asked from whom and I told him. I told him first about the bone graph thing. He commented with saying X-Rays can show you have a ceist but it actually may not be a ceist. So he determines if I need a bone graph when he is already doing the surgery. He said when he goes in and drill the bone, if he feels the hole is bigger then normal he will do bone graph, if not then its not needed. He then said he does not recall seeing a ceist on the X-Ray, now Paul directly pointed to it for me so I don't know. When I told him about how Paul recommends using my own part, he said because I had a incident that tore the ACL he recommends using the donor, he said if the ACL just wore down from the donor he then suggest using my own. Now to me hearing this makes me feel that the donor part can easily wear down so why wouldn't I just use my own part? The other different thing that was said was my doctor said I will get a ice machine and thats it, Paul said he wants a ice machine and a pump machine sent to my house to use. Another tricky part is, after my visit with my original doctor, when walking out to follow his nurse to have her just tell me the what to dos before sugury (I already made surgery for 25th when I first saw him) he said, make sure you fill out and have him consent the bone graph. Now ALL the paperwork was done the first visit when I said yes do surgery, and now I mentioned bone graph he all of a sudden rememebered to have her do the paper work? What would YOU guys do? I had good luck with my original, grant it this would be my 4th knee surgury. I just want this to be the LAST!

I'm not a doctor, I go off what they say, but my ACL is fully torn and gone lol I just want something that solves my issues and fixes all.

Anyone have experience with them? I need ACL replacement and not sure if I'm going use the guy who done it before.

Magnawig- I'll think about it, I'll see what room I have first. CMJeepster- hope they are babies because that tank is way to small for 3! I've done a lot if research when I got my turtles so I'm a turtle pro now (dorky I know) so I don't mean to come off rude by letting you know about the tank size.

I'll have to remember this for next year, yea next year please no more this year!

Anyone here have aquariums? This is another hobby/enjoyment I have and wanted to see if anyone else is in it. I'm in the sewell area and was also going see if anyone knows of any good fish stores around they recommend? I go often to aquarium center, but sometimes I'm not very satisfied over there. I know in Levittown PA they have a huge store called The Hidden Reef that is impressive but didn't know if there is anything like that but closer. Just to list what I have: 125g, 75g, 37g, and 15g. Will soon be getting a 300g stock tank to put my turtles in which will then allow me to reseal/ re-do my 125g. Will also be slowly building my 37g reef tank soon when school is over this semester.

R.I.P......

Heavyopp- I would love to own 51 acres or more like you do! That is awesome man, maybe one day I can.

I'm in school still, but when I graduate I plan on sending out resumes to FL, PA, NC so far, I'll be looking at more places that are warming since my knees suck in the cold.

Thanks OG, looks like buds is a way better price then gunbroker, might have to join.

Where are you finding M1? Permits come in that's what I want.

What's the object between your beer and lighter? I thought at first one of those electronic cigs but looks way different from what I've seen.

I have a neighbor who has a huge tree right by the fence line and we have some decent size beaches hanging over our side. Of course the branches that are on our side are mostly dead. He said when he moved into the house he was going get the tree removed but hasn't because price would be over a grand to do he was quoted. I always get nervous because I just built a shed right where branches are. I can't complain to township either because one the neighbor is cool, 2 he's a cop lol, and 3 I built my shed not to proper codes I know so I'd screw myself. Then again his shed isn't done in proper codes either lol.
