Re: Place of business refusing to accept cash?

Remember those VISA "Speed of Business" TV commercials?
Everything grinds to a halt when a customer uses a personal
check or cash. Cute but wrong, cash is king!
I guess a money order would be acceptable.
To go deeper, pick up a quarterly called 2600.
It is very revealing about how shallow corporate ...

There is a big 51% sign right where you pay admission to Billy Bobs at the entrance
facing West towards Main Street. :rules:

Re: Cross road in life suggestions needed

I would not waste my time/money on a private course for your
FBI resume. The government looks favorably on state, local p.d., and military
training but considers private courses as no course at all.
A private course will build your self confidence when you hit the federal
range but thats it ...

Re: Today's idiot brought to you from Normal, IL

I just noticed he was wearing New Balance running shoes.
I feel his pain. :mrgreen:
As a 3 time marathoner, if you enjoy shin splints New Balance
is your shoe. Ha!

He looks a little too old to be removed from the "shallow end"
of the gene pool but I guess its never too late after all.
What a Bozo. :biggrinjester:

Re: Dallas PD Gang Unit Officer Killed

When I saw the Dallas Morning News headlines my heart sank.
My sincere condolences to the surviving family in this
time of sad unexpected loss of a loved one.

Re: Masked gunmen kill 1, injure 3 in Dallas store

I just saw the store video tape on chanel 5 nbc news at 10 last night. Unless you are
facing the threat and aware of the threat, there is
just not enough time to react to such a quick random walk in shooting like
this. Years ago I walked into a Gas Pipe over in Arlington. I was uncomfortable ...

Re: Fingerprint Rejections

Just got processed thru FAST L1 electronic fingerprinting. $9.95 and 15 minutes
with quaranteed acceptance from the state for CHL. It sure saves on anxiety of getting
rejected fingerprints 3 weeks after the paperwork was mailed.
The bad side is by appointment only, no drop ins. You call or apply ...

Re: Never going to QUAIL CREEK again!

Funny you mention they should go out of business. I have heard rumors for 18 months
that 2008 is their last year of operation. I think they are tired of the whole
range business.
Last spring, 1/2 mile south of the range, some lady sitting in her trailer at a Texas Motor speedway event was hit by a ...
