The Seventeen is the BMW Five Series of hand-guns IMO. I love them. Not meaning to be contrary but I preferred the weight and feel of the Beretta 92 over the Glock 17 Though I will admit a mild case of Beretta bite the first time I ever shot one

Free pot giveaway to protest proposed tax on marijuana

I'm in my 30's now and I still do this and I have no plans to ever live my life differently. Sure the details may change slightly but I still follow my dreams, chase after my wife, and drink way too much

cut and pasted from elsewhere I was at home the other night in the middle of my dinner when the phone rang. ME: Hello. AT&T: Hello, this is AT&T. ME: Is this AT&T. AT&T: Yes, this is AT&T … ME: This is AT&T. AT&T: Yes, this is AT&T … ME: Is this AT&T.? AT&T: Yes! This is AT&T, may I speak to Mr. Byron, please? ME: May I ask who is calling? AT&T: This is AT&T. ME: OK, hold on. At this point I put the phone down for a solid 5 minutes thinking that, surely, this person would have hung up the phone. I ate my salad. Much to my surprise, when I picked up the receiver, they were still waiting. ME: Hello? AT&T: Is this Mr. Byron? ME: May I ask who is calling, please? AT&T: Yes, this is AT&T … ME: This is AT&T? AT&T: Yes, this is AT&T … ME: The phone company. AT&T: Yes, sir. ME: I thought you said this was AT&T. AT&T: Yes, sir, we are a phone company. ME: I already have a phone. AT&T: We aren’t selling phones today, Mr. Byron. We would like to offer you 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. ME: Now, that’s 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day? AT&T: (getting a little excited at this point by my interest) Yes, sir, that’s right! 24 hours a day! ME: 7 days a week.? AT&T: That’s right. ME: 365 days a year.? AT&T: Yes, sir. ME: I am definitely interested in that! Wow!!! That’s amazing! AT&T: We think so! ME: That’s quite a sum of money! AT&T: Yes, sir, it’s amazing how it adds up. ME: OK, so will you send me checks weekly, monthly or just one big one at the end of the year for the full $52,560; and if you send an annual check, can I get a cash advance? AT&T: Excuse me? ME: You know, the 10 cents a minute. AT&T: What are you talking about? ME: You said you’d give me 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. That comes to $144 per day, $1008 per week and $52,560 per year. I’m just interested in knowing how you will be making payment. AT&T: Oh, no, sir. I didn’t mean we’d be paying you. You pay us 10 cents a minute. ME: Wait a minute, how do you figure that by saying that you’ll give me 10 cents a minute, that I’ll give YOU 10 cents a minute? Is this some kind of subliminal telemarketing scheme? I’ve read about things like this in the Enquirer, you know. AT&T: No, sir, we are offering 10 cents a minute for ME: THERE YOU GO AGAIN! Can I speak to a supervisor please? AT&T: Sir, I don’t think that is necessary. ME: I insist on speaking to a supervisor! AT&T: Yes, Mr. Byron. Please hold. At this point, I begin trying to finish my dinner. SUPERVISOR: Mr. Byron? ME: Yeah. SUPERVISOR: I understand you are not quite understanding our 10 cents a minute program. ME: Is This A T &T? SUPERVISOR: Yes, sir, it sure is. ME: (I had to swallow before I choked on my food. It was all I could do to suppress my laughter and I had to be Careful not to produce a snort.) No, actually, I was just waiting for someone to get back to me so that I could sign up for the plan. SUPERVISOR: Ok, no problem, I’ll transfer you back to the person who was helping you. ME: Thank you. I was on hold once again and managed a few more mouthfuls. I need to end this conversation. Suddenly, there was an aggravated but polite voice at the other end of the phone. AT&T: Hello, Mr. Byron, I understand that you are interested in signing up for our plan.? ME: No, but I was wondering - do you have that “Friends and Family” thing because I’m an only child and I’d really like to have a little brother… AT&T: click……..

At rugby, probably not At football, most likely At some third sport that neither spends most of their life practicing, who knows

My tankish Jedi Shadow just arrived on Belsavis at level 45. I don't find his voice as annoying anymore but I'm pretty sure that I've already figured out who the first son is unless they pull some trick where it's a character I haven't met yet

Worked an awful lot, missed going to see the new Riddick movie, had an interesting experience at a wine bar, and spent over 200 bucks on alcohol

Went to some wine bar and had some appetizers and pizza We were sitting in a corner and I was facing the window and a (I'm assuming because they were holding hands) gay couple walks by outside. One gentleman splits off from the other and points directly at me walks up to the glass and puts his mouth on it and starts making out with the window. I'm just sitting there thinking to myself why does this kind of stuff always happen to me Anyway, the food and wine was very good and this is what we had thin baguette topped with gorgonzola cheese and honey mushrooms stuffed with italian sausage, prosciutto & cream cheese sweet corn ravioli tossed in a brown butter sauce with toasted pecan dust white pizza with homemade gorgonzola sauce, pear, red peppers drizzled in honey and some kind of meat platter with olives, capers, and mustard

Yep, same as the Powertech I mostly pull people into traps but also off of platforms or just away from the goal or ball carrier. It also has immobilize if you spec into it which makes it even more valuable on defense or for pulling into traps.

My favorite class for huttball is is my Vanguard tank Between storm, harpoon, aoe, and guarding whoever has the ball (if it's not me) it's just too much fun. The problem I have is that the team I'm on usually just wants to murder the other team with no regard to scoring or stopping the ball carrier

Sorry for your loss You are a better man than me because I wouldn't have taken it down as you were honoring her in your own way. It's big of you to have accommodated your aunt's request but it was wrong of her to ask you to do so I had a situation similar to Ros in when my mom died our family split and a lot of us still don't speak to each other. But perhaps if we had been more willing to bend as you did then maybe we could have remained close

Currently having chicken fried rice for lunch Not sure what I'm going to do for dinner but since the wife is having a girls night out I'll probably just finish off some hot and sour soup I made the other day

Was probably my favorite scene of the movie

As you saw from the Russian homophobia thread they aren't that good at taking criticism Far easier to look at someone else and point out whats wrong than to look at yourself and do the same

How much health do enemy bosses have if you can hit for over a million?

I'm sure we will blow it in the playoffs again It's kind of our thing

Did life on Earth come from Mars? We need Maury Mars, you are NOT the father

I don't understand the TV angle they are trying to push with the xbox Maybe I'm just missing something

A Cowboys fan?!?! Watching fireworks over Mile High right now (not pictured: Fireworks)

Probably the weirdest thing I've seen all day
