Off Topic / Anyone here ride motorcycle?
« on: May 09, 2013, 11:04:57 AM »
I passed the MSF course last month and got myself an old KLR650. Just curious if there's anyone else here that rides.

What do you ride?
How long have you been riding?
Why aren't you riding yet?

I got one because I was getting tired of riding my bicycle everywhere and having to budget the car between myself and the wife. My duplex only provides one car parking and then it's very limited street parking from there. Aaaaaaaand I might've wanted to have a motorcycle all my life, too.


So far it's been working great. I now have the freedom and options to do almost anything and go almost anywhere I want when the wife is using the car; neither of us have to feel guilty when we need to go somewhere and leave the other behind at home, now that we each have a vehicle. Previously, when the wife was gone doing yoga or whatever else she does, if I wanted to do anything I would be limited to walking or biking range. Living on a big effing hill that's a pain in the ass to go back up.............my perceived range was much smaller than actual, and I always ended up convincing myself that I don't really want to leave the house after all.


In short....I have so much more options for activities!

Deals and Sales / Black Friday favorites?
« on: November 06, 2012, 11:43:26 AM »
It's that time of year, ladies and gents. What is your favorite firearms-related online or local retailers that usually put out on Black Friday (unlike your gf/wife. Zing!)?

Favorite non-firearm related?

Anyone else turned away from picking up their Permit To Acquire at HPD for any reason that's not their own fault (forgot to bring ID, passport, marriage cert, etc)?

HPD Firearms Department told me today they had a glitch in the application process, and that the state health department didn't get back to them yet; presumably regarding the state of my mental health. Today was my first day to pick up the permit after the arbitrary 14 day wait, and I was told to come back on Wednesday but call ahead in case they don't have it yet.

This board is likely monitored by HPD but I know I'm already on their shitlist. May or may not be related but it sucks. I went home half day today at noon so I can go pick up my permit and the HPD guy left a message while I was on my bike heading there.

Hunting / Anyone do bowhunting?

Anyone do bowhunting?

I bought myself a recurve and have a compound bow on the way. Anyone have the will to show a noob the ropes in hunting in Hawaii?  :D

I looked around but I couldn't find anything or probably looking in the wrong place. Without using a car, can I keep a bow and some arrows in my backpack, then take it to the archery range in kapiolani park after work, and then go home?

http://store.foodforhealthinternational.com/Humless/Humless-Power/Humless-Roadrunner.html Be Ready Hawaii sells this unit.

Alright so I'm really math and electricity dense and I'd appreciate if anyone wants to do some of this homework for me, my dilema is this: I'm leaving to Cali for several days on 4/11 and it involved sleeping in some tent April 12, 13, 14, and 15th. I'll be on the plane and back home on the 16th.

I have sleep apnea and will have to bring my CPAP to get any sleep (also to not wake everyone up around me).

This is the CPAP I own with specs below

http://www.cpapwholesale.com/devilbiss-IntelliPAP.htm

I'm looking for something portable that will run my CPAP for the 4 nights I need to use it. I'm guessing 1 night is 5 - 7 hours.



5 - 7 hours a day use

CPAP (from link above) :
•Operating Voltage: 100-240 Volts AC 50/60 Hz, 120 Vac 400 HZ
•Power Consumption: 65 Watts Maximum
**(mine is set at 11 out of 20, so probably not going to hit max)


Humless Roadrunner specs (from link at top):
 •10Ah Lithium Battery provides 120Wh of power
 •Integrated 5A smart-charger with PWM high efficiency charging
 •200W Continuous / 400W peak 120VAC Output (Modified Sine Wave)
 •2.5w 18v Mono-crystalline Solar Panel with tempered glass face



I don't even know if those are the numbers I need to look at to see if the Humless Roadrunner will fit my needs for the week.

Coachella allegedly has a charging area for people to charge their electronic shit at, so I might be able to go there for a bit to help charge. 2.5watts solar panel sounds abysmally low. Like it would take 2 days to charge to full.


Or, if anyone has a suggestion on a portable power supply that I can take with me that will run my CPAP for the 4 nights I need to use it for, I would greatly appreciate that as well!

I leave in 2 days!

For anyone that has experience with Bushmasters or specifically the XM15-E2S, is the barrel bare metal underneath the FSP, or is it parkerized? If it is bare metal, how do I preserve it from rusting? Hit it with spray paint? Hope the new gas block is big enough to cover the two areas?

I intend to remove the front sight post, put on a low profile gas block, and stick a longer handguard on there.

DUI Checkpoint Refusal

Though, judging by what I've seen so far, Hawaii cops would likely refuse to identify themselves in the first place.

Have you seen the electorate map lately, Lawrence. If you did you wouldn't be to quick to use the word loser. You see, the problem with Obama isn't the near $6 trillion in borrowing in just three years, [these numbers all need to be updated, they have gotten worse since I wrote this] the radical growth in the size of the federal government and its regulatory zeal, ObamaCare, the Boeing plant closure threat, the green jobs sweet-heart deals and Van Jones-like “Millions of Green Jobs” nonsense, the vast expansion in food stamps and unemployment pay-outs, the reversal of the Chrysler creditors, politically driven interference in the car industry, the failed efforts to get card check and cap and trade, the moratoria on new drilling in the Gulf, the general antipathy to new fossil fuel exploitation coupled with new finds of vast new reserves, the new financial regulations, an aggressive EPA oblivious to the effects of its advocacy on jobs, the threatened close-down of energy plants, the support for idling thousands of acres of irrigated farmland due to environmental regulations, the constant talk of higher taxes, the needlessly provocative rhetoric of “fat cat”, “millionaires and billionaires,” “corporate jet owners,” etc. juxtaposed, in hypocritical fashion, to Martha’s Vineyard, Costa del Sol, and Vail First Family getaways, the 17 day Hawaiin vacation, not to mention gun running, oil spill paralysis, black panther scandals, suing Arizona, on and on and on.

It was just announced that last month’s unemployment is still above 9% — despite the nearly five trillion dollars in Keynesian pump-priming, the near zero interest rates, the expanded unemployment and food stamp support, and the government takeovers and subsidies of businesses. There is a scary sort of deer-in-the-headlights look about Obama and Biden that is quite disturbing, as if they are thinking, “This was not supposed to happened to us. Geithner, Goolsbee, Orszag, Romer, Summers assured us that all this borrowing would turn things around — but they are all gone or leaving, so now we are alone? What to do? Hmmm. More them/us class warfare rhetoric? Embrace more of the California/Illinois/New York blue-state model? More European Union emulation? A national high-speed rail jobs program? Bring back Van Jones and “millions of green jobs”? Borrow another $5 trillion? Maybe negative interest rates? Seventy-five million on food stamps? Four years of unemployment insurance? A new Department of Jobs? Call in Jimmy Carter for advice about 1979? $100 billion more in green subsidies to progressive caring companies? Take over Ford? Another speech from Buffett? Unleash the Congressional Black Caucus?”

We have all heard ad nauseam that an eight-month-old Republican-controlled Congress has stopped Obama’s legislative agenda for three years.

No worries, all is well. Just keep whistling past the grave yard.
 
Ignore the polls, they are all wrong.
Ignore the weekly unemployment numbers and the jobs numbers, they lie too.
Ignore the repeated revisions, for the worse, to the weeks previous numbers. They are even bigger lies.
Ignore the inflation numbers. Prices have not gone up.
Ignore the despair you see around you. Those are jut upside down smiles.
Ignore the constant vacations, on our dime, Barry indulges in.
Ignore how he plays the average American, read the working stiff, as the fool.
Ignore the trillions he has urinated away with no benefit at all to anyone but his pals.
Ignore the blatant arrogance.

And...

Ignore the last two special elections.

They are not warning alarms. His ship is not sinking.
Nov 6th 2012 will be a landslide, You can bet the farm on that. 
And we will soon after be rid of this nightmare of incompetence and destruction.
All will be well soon as he's long gone.


Obama’s problem is it’s not 2007 anymore. Obama is a known Quantity now. Obama was elected based on a manufactured persona, a lie, put forward by the DNC and the fawning media. And who is Barack Hussein Obama?

Obama is the 1st president in the history of the USA who is not a cultural American, and it shows. No other president, except Jimmy Carter, has ever run down his country to the world as Obama has. Obama has denigrated the people of America shamelessly, and he has no idea of who we are because he is not one of us.

Obama was raised far outside of mainstream American culture. His upbringing was by socialists who indoctrinated him from day one to be a hardcore marxist ideologue. Obama was taught to loath the middle class and to use radical rules to attack it. Since before he was elected Obama has been tearing down the USA and the middle class which he fooled into voting for him.

Obama was billed to be all things to all people. A pseudo-mythical messiah-like figure that rose mysteriously with no background yet was a towering intellect who could solve all our problems. Obama is a man of slogans, and was "going to hit the ground running", and "ready to lead on day one". He was going to be the post racial president who would unite the USA and lead us into a new era of enlightenment and renewed respect in the world of nations. Only now we know this all to be a farce.

To those of us who took the time to investigate Obama while the fawning media failed to vette him it comes as no surprise that Obama is a failure. Anyone who tried to point out his radicalism, his criminal associates, terrorist friends, his racist church where he sat for 20 years listening to hatred of America and Americans was branded as a racist. It turns out that everything Sean Hannity reported about Obama's past was true.

And now we know that Obama is a shallow self-serving man of little experience who constantly resorts to demagoguery of those who oppose his radical agenda. He makes denigrating generalizations of broad swathes of the population and makes it clear he is only the president of those who voted for him and support him. We are much worse off as a nation than we were before Obama and have more than a year of this arrogant fool to endure. The best thing we can do is to vote out every democrat and take away any political power this "president" has. Let's all watch this impostor vacation and golf and travel the world in Air Force One at our expense while we continue without an inspirational leader and scratch our heads in wonder at the absurd Political Correctness that got us such a ludicrous president.
