I do, but the two closest Costco's by me are dry.

I have just 3 levels of use for sparkly. Korbel if it's casual, Moet if I want to impress and Dom if something extra super ridiculously special is expected to happen

I just want the wine to not taste like vinegar. I usually go with a red table wine. Honestly, I don't drink the stuff much. If I have 6 glasses of wine a year, that's a lot.

IIRC, we have several wine aficionados here. I need some good tips for moderately priced wines in the $20 to $30 range. I buy two cases every year for gift baskets, nothing terribly fancy but it's like, my thing. I'm not a wine drinker so I really have no clue as to what's good or not. Red, white, whatever, as long as it's a decent wine. Go.....

Not really. He just achieved senior status this year, so he is doing a cut and run with a bigger pension.

@1563621 Is this something you might have laying around?

Pix, or it didn't happen. Come on man, you know the drill.

Well Griz, normally you would be asked to turn in your man card, but it seems it's been punched so many times for having done manly things, there's nothing to turn in, so you get a pass.

Yanno, I've made a few attempts to get a R-14 gtg organized. I know we have enough R-14 members here to make that happen. I guess my resolution will be to organize a R-14 gtg in '19. They have a paintball combat field there too. That could be a whole lotsa fun. If we get that organized, I call HE and Mrs. Zeke for my team.

That's a Basic list.

One NJGF event a month, alternating monthly between north and south.

The devil is in the details.

Generally, I agree with this. The progressive left has been on a decades long campaign to disarm Americans. Specifically, they want to do away with semi-auto rifles. Handguns are typically defensive weapons, whereas long guns may be used as offensive weapons. If there was to be a revolt against the socialist encroachment or a civil war, it would not be fought with handguns. Clearly, the progressives want to ensure they overwhelmingly have the upper hand. When you consider that the vast majority of shootings are done with handguns, but the focus of bans is mostly on long guns and magazine capacity, the progressive agenda becomes apparent. I won't go as far as to say the people who use black rifles in mass shootings are part of some MK Ultra scheme, but the progressives certainly have created a social climate where mentally ill people can become infamous through the use of a black rifle in their attacks. And, it's always the rifles fault, never the fault of failed progressive policies, ignored and untreated mental illness or incompetent social services. For example, it's not like they didn't see the Parkland shooting coming, there were a million red flags but the democrat infested social services allowed the future killer to remain at large and armed because it would look bad for the feel good program the killer was enrolled in. While we are not quite there yet (far from it), I can imagine a future where, if the left has taken compete control of government, and uses the two existing forms of retained hard copy, the log books at the LGS and the handgun P2P forms that is not a gun registry, but is a state gun registry. The left will absolutely exploit the paper trail to go door to door to investigate people who do not comply with a gun ban. The kind of wholesale confiscation that Nappen portents is neither imminent or likely as long as we have SCOTUS and a two party system. Many far fetched conditions will have to be met for Napan's dystopian future to exist.

HEY!!! You are not allowed to use big words here until you have made at least 10 posts.

Did you and Nappen make an example out of them, the same way the state crucifies some people to make an example out of them, like the guy with the 300 year old black powder pistol charged with a felony? Or, did Nappen stop once the heat was off of you and he was not getting any more attention from the media? Nappen may have helped you, and I'm truly happy for you that it turned out well. But, make no mistake, Nappen profited from that case.

I got a Moto E+ last year to replace a phone that I lost. The battery on this thing is pretty awesome. I don't make a lot of calls but do send a fair amount of text messages with data. I recharge it about once a week, when it gets to about 50% I also keep GPS and WiFi disabled until I need those features. It auto updates when it needs to. Honestly though, I'd be happier with my old ass Motorola flip phone with no GPS, no facebook, no interwebs. Just a plain old phone that does not try to invade every aspect of my life.

For the third time, I refer you to this. Representing you for free, cool. Don't know the story behind it, don't want to know because it is irrelevant. A Lawyer who is considered a credible authority on NJ gun law posting patently false information that could cause people to panic is indefensible. Bad people do good things and good people do bad things. What "Evan" did was inexcusable, regardless of whether you like him or not. It's that simple.

In case you missed it the first time.

It's not so much that he is getting paid, but how he goes about drumming up business. Telling people that cops will be going door to door is unethical. Then he doubles down with a Kristallnacht reference. Very uncool.

Here's the problem. FFLs are usually a LGS, not a Mfg like Barrett. An FFL refusing to sell standard capacity mags to LE does not help anyone. First, it would piss off local LE agencies and the cops that work for them. It would punish the wrong people. Cops don't make the laws, they just do their jobs. The last thing you want to do is marginalize our LEOs. That is why the state always makes special exemptions for active and retired LE. It's a small price for the gun hate'n dems to pay so that LE does not turn on them politically. Secondly, if the FFL does not sell to a cop or agency, then they will just go and buy mags off the internet. And they will likely take the rest of their business with them. The LGS would get black balled, (or, since we are talking about LE, blue balled, maybe ) So, it would ultimately have a negative impact on the LGS. It just makes it harder for your LGS to stay in business. Our one and only hope, is for gun owners to sue the state because decent law abiding people are being treated like THIRD class citizens. Aside from infringing on 2A rights, there is plenty to go for, like equal protection. And also, undue burden, like having to get (and pay for) a background check for every P2P. What's the point of that! If someone already owns 5 handguns, there is literally no legitimate reason for additional scrutiny. You are either in good standing, or you're not, and your local PD will already have dealt with your firearms and FPID if you are not. The state is systematically obstructing citizens from enjoying freedoms and exercising rights. Our case will go to SCOTUS when the time is right, hopefully it will be sooner rather than later.

And mom too, she always knew, somehow, about whatever. She opened carried a wooden spoon though.

u r very many smart.
