Been a tradition every year to spend the Saturday after Thanksgiving in Frankenmuth with the family. Had a great time again this year. Few pics from the trip. . .

You know why my 32" 720 looks good to me?....because I just checked it and it does have 1080
-
There's nothing wrong with 720. While my main TV's I use (my 54" & 40" ones) are 1080 full HD I do have a Haier 32" 720 TV in the workshop and truth be told I personally can't tell a whole ton of difference between 720 and 1080. . . . In grumpy old man voice - You damn kids are just spoiled. Go back to the days of having a 13" black & white tv that you had to change the channels with vice grips on and then tell me how your 720 is junk again!
-
Never knew that. Wonder if you have to put the TV under your armpit to get the picture to show up on those too
-
Say whaaaaat? Polaroid makes TV's?????
-
I know Blaupunkt use to be a big name in stereos here in the States back about 20 or so years ago, but I didn't even know they made Tv's. Haven't seen that brand around here in many years.

People that go on these Black Friday trips need their friggin heads examined. They get up at a ridiculous hour of the morning to go to a store and stand in line outside in the cold for hours, then push and shove and all but incite riots and for what? To save a few bucks?? That's just sick if you ask me. Money is a man made object and not worth the bullshit that happens at these stores just to save some. I'm with you James, I don't even usually get out of the house much on black Friday, I do most my shopping online and avoid all the idiots at the stores.

It's only 2 channel so it is not the easiest thing to control. And due to motor torque it's a bit of a bitch to turn right, turns left much easier.

So far I've crashed into a wall, two chairs, the floor multiple times, a box, and a 15lb pissed off cat.
-
That's the plan soon as it comes off charge lol. Although my cat Orangie doesn't take shit from anything so he may go all Godzilla on it
-
As a life long Star Wars fan I like the looks of some things in the trailer like the X wings skimming the desert, but that funky lightsaber and the r2d2 "ball" thing both kind'a look a bit hokey to me. I'll have to wait till I see it to pass any judgement though.

I may be about to turn 43 years old in a couple weeks but that doesn't mean I ever grew up I was just at the local CVS Pharmacy when I walked by the end of the isle by the register and found this on sale for black Friday for only $8.88. How could I pass that up?! So I bought one for me, and one for my Nieces boyfriend. Now we can both mount an aerial assault on my Nephews drone I just bought him lol
-
Kind'a looking forward to this one because I always liked the Jurassic Park movies.

Sony hacked again (but not PSN) What the actual fuck.

Hackers need to get a F'N life. I never will understand what sort of thrill they get out of crap like this. -
I really like the looks of the surefire forend, I'm just having such a hard time swallowing the price tag for it is all I did find it on Amazon for the Mossberg 500 for $277 which is cheaper than most places, but still....that's a lot of cash.
-
Right now it's got a factory modified choke so it doesn't have the screw in choke tubes in this barrel it has at the moment. Good point about the safety, right now it's easy to flip with my thumb with my right hand in the firing position, but would not be thumb accessible with a pistol grip stock. I'll have to give that some more thought thanks for pointing that out. When you get a chance snap a pic or two of your home defense shotgun I'd love to see how you outfitted yours.
-
....I know they aren't Art, and thank you for noticing.
-
That's something I have always wanted to try but have yet to have the chance. Never had it fried

After 8 hours out in the cold today....Viola'

Just wanted to wish everyone here a happy and healthy Thanksgiving. I hope you all enjoy some good food and good times with your families around the dinner table this year. Steve

Doc I have a gun question for you that maybe you can help me with. I've got a Mossberg 500 12ga full length barrel/wood stock that I have been meaning to strip down and rebuild into a nice home defense shotgun for the longest time now but just have not got around to doing yet. I'm thinking I may finally do it over the holiday season when I have a bit more free time in a few weeks so I've been doing some searching online and looking at all the tactical/upgrade parts for it. I'm not going to do anything too expensive or crazy with the build but I'm thinking composite rear stock with built into rear pistol grip, rail mount shell holder, shorten the barrel, flashlight mount and composite forend. And that's where I have a question for you. In looking at the composite forends for shotguns I see they have the standard grip, then the forend grip that also has a pistol grip on it. I've shot a lot of rifles and a number of shotguns but I have never shot any long gun that had a pistol grip on the forend. To me that seems like maybe it would take a lot of getting use to or just seems a bit unnatural of a way to hold a long gun. Have you ever shot one with a pistol grip forend? and if so did it seem odd feeling at first or was it not an issue?

Now that's pretty dang cool!

1/2 ton trucks ride pretty smooth these days, 3/4 ton aren't too bad but 1ton's have a good deal of ridged ride to them still though but that's just the nature of the beast when you have a truck that is geared towards hauling. IFS has helped over the years but they still have solid leaf sprung rears so hard to get away from a bit of a rough ride in the rear especially when you get into the 6-7 leaf packs of the HD models. Although some of the trucks that have air rides in them are flat out awesome for ride quality and hauling. Although I do agree the trucks these days do ride like a Cadillac when compared to the trucks of old. I've always been a truck guy and have owned 8 different blazers 2 GMC pick ups and a dodge pick up all from 1972-1985 and most of them I had 6"-10" of suspension lift with 38.5" to 44" tires on. Nothing will bruise your ribs quite like a 10" lifted short wheel base blazer skipping down the rode on some 39" Ground Hawgs I'll have to see if I can find some of my old pics of that Blazer, you guys would probably like seeing that truck it was a blast to wheel in.

The micro sd card totally slipped my mind I'm glad to said that.
