I think I'll go the Samsung route. Was just wondering if the LG might be better, but they seem very close. I have a two year old Samsung 65" Curved 4K set that we love and have not had any issue with. The picture is great, the only issue I have with them is their Smart stuff seems never to have made it passed the third grade Won't be an issue as I'm ditching the cable anyway and this will get hooked up to either an AppleTV or Roku. Thanks for the input.

Well I had the same thing happen years ago. Asked the insurance company and they said no surcharge for 2 points but yes for three. Went and talked to prosecutor ahead of time and he agreed to change the illegal U-turn to just an illegal turn worth only 2 points. I think the fine and court fees were under $100 - the cheapest way out. What a bunch of crap though. If you did something and they can prove it there should be no plea bargains that is just a corruption of justice for money.

Actually if you buy at Costco it is great, they double the one year warranty and if you use their VISA card they double that so you get a four year warranty for no cost.

From what I know Vizio is crap. I know three people who have had them and they all died in under 18 months. Unless someone comes up with a compelling reason to get the LG I will go with the Samsung. I have a two year old 65" curved 4K Samsung that has been great.

Need some help choosing a 55" TV. I was all set to buy an LG 55UH615A (same as the 55UH6150) which they have on sale at Costco for $599, BUT I saw a Samsung they had in the store the UN55KU6290 which they have for only $489. Any opinions on which is better and why? They are both 4k and seem very similar. Rather save the $110 if I am not giving up something. I know there are better ones out there, but this is a secondary TV for a bedroom so does not have to be the best, just want to pick the better of these two options. Thanks.

I am thinking of going the PS Vue route after trying SlingTV and Direct TV Now. Neither of these have all the network stations while PS VUE does. That is important for me since an OTA won't work where I live due to mountains in the way of the signals. For those interested, while the DTVN offer is over, you can still get "free" devices by signing up for SlingTV. You can sign up for one month of their minimum $20 package and get a free Roku streaming stick or sign up for three months and buy a $149 AppleTV for only $89 - both good values just to get the devices. I have found that there are many of what they call Private Channels that can be loaded onto the Roku which will give you a lot of free TV. Check out XTV and Channel Pair as too really good ones. USTV Now is not a bad app either. Their free package gives you the major networks (2,4,5,7,9,11,13)

I bought a Burris Fastfire iii and mounted it on my Glock 19 using a $25 mounting plate that goes into the rear dovetail. I works perfectly and does not drift at all. I have used the gun for USPSA carry optics, IDPA (NFC) and Knockdown steel. Probably have about 1,000 rounds through it with the sight and have not had a single issue. Sure you can spend more, but you have to figure out what incremental value are you getting for the dollar. BTW for a pistol unless you are doing long range bullseye shooting I would suggest a 6-8 MOA dota as they are much quicker for your eyes to acquire than a small dot.

If you have a weak or light recoil spring it might cycle just fine.

I just got a free ROKU for signing up for a one month of SLINGTV. Not very impressed with SlingTV, and was kind of pissed that you can't put Kodi on this stick. But in doing some research I learned that you can add what are know as private channels on Roku which have just about everything for free that you can imagine both live and streaming.

MuHu

MuHu is one of the best, but if you have a mountain between you and the transmitter it won't work and you won't get OTA

I have used KODI, but my wife wants to be able to turn the TV on and watch so that is not an option for us as the main solution.

How do you pay that little for Internet, phone AND Hulu. Just my internet is more than that.

I am fed up with the CABLE BILL and am looking for other options for the crazy fee they charge for TV packages where I have to up subscribe just to get one station. Unfortunately an OTA antenna won't work at my location. I have looked at SlingTV, DirectTV Now, and am going to take a look at PS VUE. Anyone try any of these or others - what is the good or bad about them? I signed up for three months of DirectTV now for $35/mo mostly to get a "free" $149 AppleTV 4th Generation. Also signed up for a month for SlingTV for $25 to get a RokU. I'll probably drop both of them once the initial terms are up. It sounds like PS VUE might be the best option right now or maybe Hulu Live when it comes in the fall. Thinking of going with Ooma to replace the cable companies VoIP service and just stick with them for Internet. All opinions and ideas welcomed.

I wonder if you can take them to small claims court over this, turn the tables on them.

My wife was in DE about 9 years ago with my son and one of these cameras caught them going through a red light. They send me a ticket in the mail, to which I replied I had not be in DE in years. They sent me the photo of the car plate and one showing it behind the stop line when the light was red and one in the middle of the intersection. They told me if it was not me driving that I could get off by telling them who was the driver. I replied that there were multiple drivers in the car and unless they could send me a picture of the driver I was not going to risk perjury by just picking which one it might have been and that the drivers had no recollection of going through a red light or who was driving at the time. That was the last I heard from the company in MA that runs their system.

Ok, I'll play, here is my G19 for Carry Optics.

Not totally free....but might be worth it to a bunch of people, especially those looking to be cord cutters. DirectTV Now has a special that ends Monday - but probably best to jump on it today. Their 100 channel package which will be $60/mo, is on sale for $35/mo which locks in that price. If you subscribe up front for three months ($105) you get the Apple TV which Apple sells for $149 for Free. Very good deal for anyone thinking of either the unit or the service.

A bunch of dumber than dirt gun owners at that.

The entire thing is rather strange. Why fly with a gun in checked baggage to do this as you are limited in how much ammo you can have checked. I believe this guy ran out of ammo and then surrendered. Would make much more sense to just drive to an airport if that was your goal and walk in with a gun and lots more ammo. But who ever said criminals and crazy people are logical

The story says "a 61 year old employee from Neptune had accidentally shot himself in the hand while retrieving a rental gun from a storage cabinet. " How on earth does this happen? Sounds like a multi-person screw up. First the customer should have cleared the gun before having an RSO check it out. Then the person storing the gun should have checked it before putting it away. Then the 61 year old employee should have checked and kept his or her finger off the trigger before verifying it was clear. There is really no excuse for this.

My dad had a long discussion with a senior person at Chubb and while Ace is good, it is being operated totally separate from the Chubb part that he is with.

I have had StateFarm forever, or maybe a little longer. Very happy with them and get great discounts with house, umbrella and both cars. The absolute best, but you pay for it, has to be Chubb. My parents in NY have Chubb and their service and coverage is out of this world. A year ago they had the flu in their fireplace fail and smoke from the fireplace backed up into the family room. Chubb was out there with crews the next day cleaning and doing things my parents told them was not even needed. All told Chubb spent over $35,000 to correct this problem.
