Oh well...
I should shortly have plenty, since after an acquaintance gave me about 200 lbs of brass, I now have a small surplus of cases to reload. About 1000 .45cal, 9000 9mm Para, 1200 .40cal, several 100s of .30-30 and .30-06. If I can find powder and lead enough to fill those, I should be good for a little while.
I wonder if they make a Reloader Basket?

Well, I would say you're well on your way for being prepared.
Prepared for what, though, is the question!

Oh no! Quick, warn Santa!

Sand 'gators are a bigger problem here in the Mojave Desert than the government is telling people. I've seen 'em take down entire herds of burros in a single swallow, and after the wind blows the sand over the tracks, there's no sign that there was ever anything there.
Besides, there's a PIEBALDConsultant somewhere near here; I can sense it with my Jedi powers. Or maybe that's just a migraine coming on...

I wonder if he had to return the picture when Ebay covered the fraud loss.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

He could make a copy and sell it on Ebay.

Wait, so a 19-year-old is trying to buy an X-Box for his 4-year-old son, and it turns out he's not particularly intelligent?
Well, that's a shock.

Who spends $734 on ANY game console?

I have a PS2, my brother in-law gave it to us when he bought a new one. And we have a Wii that we bought used for $100 and it came with a bunch of games and a Wii fit board.
As of now they are both collecting dust.
I'm one of those guys that waits a year to buy games when I can buy them for $15 instead of $50 - $60.

I'm in that club too. It's what SteamPowered sales are for. I decide what I'm willing to pay for a game and then twiddle my thumbs until I can buy it at that price (or at least on major sale--I'm not paying $59 for a game. Amazon often has nice discounts on relatively new games. Just bought two for my kids for 30% off one, 25% off the other.)

Interesting that he's buying that for his 4-year old son who must have been born when he was 15.

Gramma's probably 34 and great Gramma is 49.
Yeah, buying it for the 4 year old, like me buying a Telecaster for my duaghter when she was 4, I don't understand, she just can't figure it out. I guess I'll just have to play it myself and she can watch...

I bought a Telecaster last month (first electric). I got home, and my 7 year old (who bought a stratocaster knock off with his own money serval months before that) immediately starts playing it and says "Daddy, I want a telecaster too".
So, in my case, I could buy a $700 tube amplifier and claim it is for my son
Edit:
Saw your profile, beautiful Les Paul... so, can you recommend me a good amp? Looking at VHT Special 6. Maybe VHT Classic 18 (as I see it on criagslist locally for cheap).

The Les Pual is pretty at a distance but she's been played and the wear and tear is real "Road Worn".
For an amp it depends on what kind of sound your looking for, The VHT's will probably be just fine. The reviews tend to be favorable. For a tele, if you want that "spanky" tele sound there's no beating a Fender amp. You can probably pick up a Fender Champ XD combo or mini stack for the same price as the VHT. The Champ XD is a tube amp that has effects built in for extra sounds.

Let me hang on to that Tele until she grows up. Promise to give it back to ya. No, really.

Um, Ok, I'll need a deposit first, if you could just give me your account number and password I'll just take out what I need.
Did I mention I will be sending a picture of my her Tele?

Imagine that! I know a Prince from Nigeria who's having financial issues and needs to transfer all his money into my account.
