  1. I'd say so. Funny how things seem to work out in the end.
  2. Not a bad way to spend 5 to 6 hundred bucks. I want a gen 4 really bad. I like the grips a ton. I just keep finding the gen 3s for a lot less. Maybe when I finish working on my new one I will upgrade to a gen 4. Again sweet glock.
  3. I got my first two cosmetic parts in today! The slide cover came in and the back strap cover. Right now I'm deciding between hydro graphics on the whole firearm or engraving on the slide. I wanna go with a blue and lime green theme this go around I think. I'm not currently sure. I'm ordering a Tungsten guide rod tomorrow for it. Here's a pic of the new slide cover.
  4. That 19 looks like a gen 4. I can't fully tell though.
  5. Homie take it easy. Dilaudid is a STRONG STRONG STRONG pain killer. Its dang near synthetic heroin. Morphine doesn't even come close to it. It is the Mac daddy of all pain medications. To put it in perspective it is about the same potency as an epidural or spinal block. Basically it deadens the nerve receptors transmitting from the spinal cord to the brain, without having a localized injection as with an epi or block. That my old friend is some serious med. Just relax and enjoy the down time. The bass ain't going nowhere. We are praying for you and thinking of you.
  6. I think so. I'm gonna be home every night at least I was told that. So I get to see my boy everyday now. The other nice part is, after my 90 days I can get my last helper on too. He has more desire to learn this line of work than any of the under 22 year olds I've met. Plus we work dang good together. He wants to learn electrical, pipe welding, and iron working/structural welding. He ain't gonna get all that working where he's at now. Hell he called me yesterday and asked if he needed to turn in his two week notice. We've been on separate jobs the last 4 months, and he heard I had been laid off. We had planned on hitting the road with a welding company if either of us got laid off. The company had promised to hire both of us when we needed work or were ready to hire on. I got this job out of the blue for the most part. After talking it over he decided to stay put until I could bring him on where I'm at now. Which is a good thing cause his 19yr old butt is gonna become a daddy any day now. Frankly, I don't want to drag him away from his kid before he even gets a chance to know him. This man would follow me to the ends of the earth if I asked him to. He is definitely one of my only true friends.
  7. I can't post what I give my wife. She is also getting some Prada shoes.
  8. You gottem homie.
  9. Apparently that is dependent on how low your pants are.
  10. I don't browse smut on my phone. That's where they are showing up at. I don't look at musical instruments either. Go figure. Least its some eye candy to look at.
  11. Hold up now! Now I'm getting ads for LED lighting and for going back to college! Now that's just insulting. Why would it give me ads related to my trade, then tell me to go back to school?! I hope I get called on a service call for them. They are gonna find how expensive an electrician can be!!!
  12. Ain't seen that one yet. However there are hot local moms waiting to meet me! I wonder why they wanna meet me? I already have a mom. I also have a baby mama aka my wife. And a mom in law. They are all living local too. I mean yeesh. How many moms do I need? I do see a ton of Dean Bass string ads. You know this being A bass site and all. I guess the ad company doesn't differentiate between a fish and a piece of wood.
  13. My buddy and I were discussing it last night. We think I'm about to become a loaner electrician between these two companies. Basically when one runs out of work I get "loaned" to the other company until they run out or I'm needed back at the other. He's a 23 year journeyman so I have faith in what he says. He told me its actually a common practice between smaller companies when they have a worker they want to keep, but work dries up. Only time will tell though. I think the CEO was complimenting you. It sounds like a weird sort of compliment, but you carpet walkers are strange. I'm not hip on the trends of the office world. If he wanted you gone I believe you would have your walking papers by now.
  14. Who needs a holster. Just crotch it like they do on the west coast.
  15. My newest addition. I love having a blank slate to work with. I ordered a new slide cover today for it. Next its getting a titanium guide rail, and chrome pins and extractor. Once I get some cash saved up I will start working on the trigger and its parts. Might get her a paint job first. Im not sure yet. Here's a pic. That's 33 rounds in my new girl.
  16. Nice to know GA is still as rowdy as they were. I love living in the South! Those Yankees just don't understand.
  17. Gotta pay up my bills. 90 day probationary period is a *****. I'm making less for those 90 days. After 90 I get my pay raised to what I was making at my last job.I got myself a new toy. As well as 20 new cranks on sale half off, With a little of it. I can send you a couple gnarly fishing lures I got.
  18. In state. The shop is less than a mile from where I was at.
  19. Didn't even make it 3 hours after I got my yellow paper and severance pay. I start with my new company on Wednesday. I went to apply, filled out half the application. My new boss came in the room, shook my hand, and said he just got off the phone with my previous boss. He said my old boss was nothing but complimentary about me, and sang my praises. He told me what the company does work wise and asked if they were to hire me when I could start. I told him Monday. We shook hands and he said he would call me this afternoon with his decision. Ten minutes later he called me and asked if I could start sooner. My first day is Wednesday. So much for fishing all week long.
  20. Sweet. I will be applying with them shortly.
  21. I don't know if y'all are as fiesty as the twin states (Alabama and Mississippi). Y'all might stick around a bit longer. These two would be gone before the ink was dry on the bill. They said the bama legislature proposed a bill, stating that all Alabama residents could own firearms regardless of their history. If the US Senate bill and assault weapons ban passed. The governor had to step in and put an end to it. Telling them that certain groups are not allowed firearms regardless of what they may think. Apparently we can't flaunt the US government to that degree. I just thought it was funny that it was even brought up. We don't play with the second amendment down here.
  22. Cali is out of the question. Too restrictive on firearms. Otherwise it would be nice. Texas might be nice. Florida would be awesome. Aside from all the Yankees. I could deal with Florida. If commercial has picked up then that could land me some iron working jobs. Is there a big union presence down there?
  23. Happy birthday old feller! PS LSwho is gonna get destroyed by the real tigers this year. War d**n Eagle!
  24. Well it looks like my wife is about to have a big decision to make. Industrial electrical is kinda slim around here right now. However I've found plenty of jobs in other states. I ain't given up on Alabama yet, as far as electrical goes. I mean I've barely started looking yet. Its just that if I can't find anything here, then its either jump trade or hit the road. Depending on pay jumping trade isnt always a vad thing. She has to decide whether she and the child are gonna come along too if I take out of state work. Sometimes life sucks.
  25. I've found a very promising lead, with a company that does ironworking. It will mainly be in state. Which could be a good thing.
