Idaho

[Glocktotinraider]

How many people on this site are from Idaho? Speak out and let a fellow Idahoan know.:dunno:

[vaulter]

North Idaho here man...born and bred.

[GreenDrake]

I think there are a bunch of us here. Hayden Lake myself, U of I Alum. and Raider Nation Disciple

[The Moyes]

Broadcasting live from Sunny Twin Falls Idaho and ready to roll when you are.

[locofife]

Originally from Blackfoot but I'm in Dallas, Texas for now. Don't get me wrong, Texas is great, but I can't wait to get back out to the west. I'll be back out there for a couple of months this summer. WHOO HOOO!!!!!:cool:

[Glocktotinraider]

wow I am amazed there are Idahoans on here lol. Glad to meet you guys. From Nampa myself.:wavey:And long time Raider fan

I head down to a division home game every year, haven't picked one out for this year yet. There's nothing in this world that compares to a Raider Nation division home game parking lot party. We had a tips and tails party a couple years back, prime rib and lobster, all the top shelf booze you could handle, until someone showed up with pot brownies and crippled three guys. They only ate one or two but they didn't make it to the game, even Warren Sapp stopped his black hummer to point at them and laugh as he rolled in through the parking lot. I am smarter than to try that stuff, no thanks. The Nation is a breed of it's own, the Raiders with Al...well they are most definitely the most colorful of the teams. We suck but we never give up, there is no "rebuilding phase" in the Raider lingo, it's long bombs and go for the Super bowl every year.

I try to go to at least 2 games a year but I didnt make any last year, kind of bummed me out. Even though we sucked I still missed the crazy fans and the stadium.:steamed:

I lived in Chubbuck back in the mid 80s while my dad taught Army ROTC at Idaho State Univeristy, then I lived in Rexburg from 93-95 going to college before transferring to Utah State University where I graduated.

[combatmedic78]

I currently live in Boise but will be moving to Moscow to attend University of Idaho in about two months.:supergrin:

Wow, I didn't know they had a degree program for partying? Cool. Is it a bachelor, master or doctorate program? I have found the perfect place to go to school. What is the homework like? If you have more information on the program, I would appreciate it. It sounds like you are an alumni of the program.:supergrin::tongueout:

Lewiston here, Idaho's only seaport, probably the only city that makes butt wipe and bullets and is proud of both.

Not from ID myself; just a little farther west although.

Born and bred in the East Bay and bleed Silver & Black. Born into the Raider Nation 1965, witnessed the best and worse. Go home a couple times a year and catch a game.

Nothing beats a Raider AFCW home game for sure! I'm surrounded by Seahack fans and get razzed all the time. I never pass up the chance to ask... Got Lombardi?

You need to have lunch at Capone's in Coeur d'Alene...their pastrami and italiano are tough to beat

[40Pirate]

Yep, I'm still here :pirates:

Just a stones throw from G&KL.

Oh yeah put me down as a Raiders fan and Capone's fan as well :supergrin:

[Team Zoltan]

I'm here at BSU for my 3rd year... wish I lived off campus but soon enough, Was born and raised in Seattle WA then moved to MN for 6 years and came here, my parents now live here after I told them it had a little more elevation change than Indiana where they were currently living. Good to hear there are some others on here.

[40Pirate]

So somebody put together a lunch at Capones :whistling:

[Glocktotinraider]

[BroBrandonB]

Well I want to be an Idahoan! Does that count?

Yeah... I admire Idaho... does that give me credit? I mean, I'm a gun owner, LDS, and a preparedness enthusiast... so that qualifies me to have something in common with 99% of Idahoans, right?

I've vote libertarian on occation and am married to a gal who was home-schooled... I've got a few common threads with you good folks!

Oh yeah... and I rarely say the word "Meat" without adding the phrase "...and potatoes"!:supergrin:

Oddly tho, I've never set foot in Idaho (or Utah). Pennsylvania suits me well enough for now. :)

Screw Capone's, let's go to Wolf Lodge Inn...

Or if we want a REAL Idaho experience, we can hit up the Snake Pit in Enaville...although that might be a little weird for some...*I* thought it was great! :supergrin:

Mmmm, Snake Pit taters...

I'll have to convince hubby to take me there the next time we go to St. Maries for some dirtbikin...it's not THAT far past the Rose Lake exit...

[Kolat]

Spokanistan + North Idaho = FAIL

No. Why don't you come over the border? :tongueout:

I used to live over there and I do a lot of work over there.

I can't afford any NFA guns and I don't like state income tax so washington works for me.

When I can afford something that empties a mag in a second I'll move over there, until then I have my fortress in spokanistan.

[sharp]

Well, dangit, what are you waiting for?

I wish I'd come to this decision a couple of years ago...I would have been able to sell my home FAST for more than it was worth. NOW, I'm going to have to be patient and wait until the housing market here rebounds some....
then ALL i have to worry about is a JOB.

[Team Zoltan]

what do you shoot and where do you shoot man?:wavey:and hello to ya from Nampa

I currently shoot my G23 that I just bought, my dads old ruger Mark II 22 lr pistol and a Remington 22lr, and anything my friends bring. I normally go out to the OTA by Gowen Field or to Impact guns over by the Boise town square mall. How about you?

I took a first date to the Snake Pit years ago, even ordere up the Rocky Mountain Oysters, just to see if she'd try them. She did. We hit the snake pit once in a while for a buffalo burger when heading up river to the cabin.

[irish_ironsight]

How about lunch at Feast Creek Restaurant,North of Bonners Ferry, I suddenly have a hankering for their smoked ribs !
late May is good for me !

I live in south Nampa so I just head out to the owyhee mountains to shoot. Currently I shoot a G-22 and 23, but today I decided to go buy a 27 . Probably wont get to shoot it til this weekend. I excited as heck. Nice gun. Got it in the od green with night sights. This will be my CCW.:wavey:

Nice, I'm thinking of making a 1911 as my next pistol but I JUST turned 21 so I'm going broke fast between shooting :50cal: and alcoholic beverages :tequila: :drink: . My G 23 I bought off Gun broker for 425 with 5 mags and night sights with only 100 rounds through it. I'm still waiting for my CCWP, I put in for it about a month ago, do you have yours yet?

[combatmedic78]

I also, attend BSU. It is my first year there. I got my CWP last July. I carry my G23 and switch it off with my S&W snubnose revolver. Just think, you only have about two more months left of waiting. If you cut back on the drinking, maybe you could some more shooting. :whistling:
You said that you go shooting at OTA by Gowen Field. What is OTA? I am tired of having to pay about $8.00 to go shooting. I would appreciate your help.
I have thought about getting 1911 but I am just thinking that I will go for the G30sf when we start getting them around here in Boise.
Take care.

OTA= orchard Training Area,
-if you go south (away from downtown) on Broadway and cross over the freeway then take your first left (not the freeway your next left) street name "S Enterprise St." follow that around to the left it will turn into Amity Rd and then take a Right onto "S production street" then take a Right on "Gowen Rd" and follow it all the way out to Gowen field Airforce base and take a left (there will be a left hand turn lane) on "Pleasant valley rd." you are then going to drive on that for about 10 min, you will go over railroad tracks and hit a dirt road, then keep driving on that till you hit the HUGE power lines that have a dirt road running under them, I then normally go right on that road and drive till one of the little roads on the left and shoot out there.

[Glocktotinraider]

Thats it for us Idahoans? Wow I figured there would be more as many guns as I see in this state.:dunno:

[RMTactical]

I considered moving near Boise at one time but my wife didn't like it. What's funny is she considered it for a while as well. She was born in Twin Falls and grew up in Gooding. When we visited Boise, she was kind of turned off by it, but I don't feel like we looked around enough or really gave it a fair shot. Oh well...

Right now I have a brother who lives in Mountain Home, stationed there with the USAF though.

You fellas need to consider Coeur d'Alene, there are a bunch of links on my website, here http://theidahodream.com/links.htm I didn't much like it down south either, too much desert and not enough rocky mountains and rivers, which is what I need.

I have friends in Coeur d'Alene I agree its beautiful up there. I don't get up there as much as I would like to. But south Idaho has its pretty points too. The Owyhee mountains if you go south enough are beautiful and the good thing about where I am is an hour north and south and you are in the mountains. I have a feeling I will end up back on the Oregon coast though being as that is where my wife is from and its getting a bit to crowded around here for my taste. GreenDrake do you have a Costco up your way? My Wife also works for them so that might make a difference in where we end up .

Yes, a brand new Costco right in the middle of CDA (Coeur d'Alene), Sportsmans Warehouse in the Costco parking lot is a tough one to pass up and a new Cabelas in Post Falls. I mainly sell new construction, which is still moving well here when I can put someone in a brand new home that is 2100sf for $250k or less. 1200sf homes are about $160k here brand new. I bought 7 years ago and got a 2400sf home on a third acre in Hayden for $114k, very happy with that purchase.

I looked at your realty website. All I can say is damn. Some of those properties can't believe they are selling for so much. By the time that I finish my college education, places are going to cost a lot more.
I was wondering my parents live down in Worley on 40 acres. How much are acres going for down there currently?

[vart]

Yep, the realtors have whored out Idaho to the point that it is quickly becoming a playground for the rich and famous and are changing the political and philosophical charm of the state.

my parents bought a few acres a mile from Dworshak reservoir in `82 and it was a great place to go and relax on the weekend.

Now, they are surrounded by million-dollar cabins owned by people back East and constantly have ATVs running through their property and tearing up the roads. :upeyes::steamed:

[combatmedic78]

I want to stay in Idaho, specifically Northern Idaho but land is just getting so expensive. I don't see how in 4 or 8 years, I can afford any of the property up there. It is so beautiful but those damn Californians are bringing California to the place that they tried to get away from California. My parents moved to their property in 1997. On their road, they already have multiple complexes going up, a couple multi million dollar homes, and a damn nudist colony. ICK! Gross! A bunch wrinkley old men and women running around in the nude. You have to love county commissioners that they pay more attention to special interest groups, then the people that they are supposed to be working for.

[Glocktotinraider]

So when are we making this shoot?

Well I am game anytime after April 15th. Tax time right now has me stuck at the office.But I have 2weeks coming to me after that. Of course I have a baby due on the 15th too lol so lets figure it out.:supergrin:

[Glocktotinraider]

Come on Idahoans keep talkin.:whistling:

[combatmedic78]

What to talk about? Hmmmmm. Well, I am thinking about getting a G19 or G30sf for practicing and home defense. Which one should I get? I don't have tons of money so I like the idea of 9mm for ammo prices but damn, 45 acp for defense. Any suggestions. :supergrin: Oh by the way, I already have G23 which I carry.

*laughs wildly*

I've got a G19 and a G36.

But I still <3 the 1911s (and their respective clones) the best.

The G19 is gonna be rough on your hands unless you gots girly hands...like mine... :supergrin:

Yeah, a G19 will be rough on my hands. I have S&W 340sc which is a real hoot to shoot with full power 357 magnum rounds. That powerful 9mm is just so big, fast powerful, and scary. I don't know if I can handle it.:rofl::tongueout::wavey:

*sigh*

Point being, it's narrow and *poppy* and the grip is kinda short (although not as short as the G36)...oh, and all around 9mm just kinda sucks.

:tongueout:

If you're a real man, you'd shoot .45ACP, you know. That's what I use, anyway. You gonna let a girly-oh show you up?

:tempted:

:tempted:

Today at Cabelas, the price for 9mm was $20, 40s&w was 33, and 45 was $43.
I just can't believe how expensive that ammo is. I am definitely not going plinking often with 45 acp. Anyway, there are some awesome 1911s out there but the good ones are just to expensive, and the G30sf that I would like to own is, no where to be found down here. Oh well. I understand that 9mm sucks but it is cheap. I guess that I should probably just admit that a girl is showing me up.:crying:
Who do I need to turn my man card into?:whistling:'
I should probably quit before I:faint:fall flat on my face.

[verdugo60]

What's up fellow Idahoan's? I am proud to be from spud land, am going to school on the eastern, cold side of our great state. This is kind of detrimental to fishing and shooting for now, but in a few months I hope to be flyfishing on the Henry's Fork and burning powder as often as the college budget allows. Raised in Nampa/Caldwell, I hear it's warm over there! I would be down with a shoot after the 15th of April, but before the 21st(summer school.) Hey, how are those Aggies?! ha. My two teams, the Cougars and Broncos are still in the March Madness. No offense though, the Aggies are good. Oh yeah, I will bring my kimber if my 49r's hat is allowed with all that silver and black!

I'll let you bring the 49ers hat but not the kimber... eeewwww! J/K:tongueout::rofl: I am a 49ers fan too. I guess that I didn't have the intestinal fortitude to tell raideman yet. But I guess that I just did.:tongueout:

[Glocktotinraider]

*sigh*

Point being, it's narrow and *poppy* and the grip is kinda short (although not as short as the G36)...oh, and all around 9mm just kinda sucks.

:tongueout:

If you're a real man, you'd shoot .45ACP, you know. That's what I use, anyway. You gonna let a girly-oh show you up?

:tempted:
Dang down south all we have to worry about is Taters and Mexicans. I worry about the taters and my rottweiler worries about the mexicans lol. Besides I have my 40. cal's and believe those will do the job if need be. I would like to own a 45.cal someday, but I am with combatmedic on this for screwing around I would rather have the 9mm. Sheesh I have 2 kids and one on the way, I can't afford that much on ammo. :rofl:

that was one of the steak nights on the annual pilgrimage. the best rib eyes I have ever had, not a veggie in sight . We had steaks most every night, cocktails and poker by the fireplace in the lodge room and ran the river twice a day for a week, a true "guys week"

It looked like a blast.:wow:

[sharp]

What to talk about? Hmmmmm. Well, I am thinking about getting a G19 or G30sf for practicing and home defense. Which one should I get? I don't have tons of money so I like the idea of 9mm for ammo prices but damn, 45 acp for defense. Any suggestions. :supergrin: Oh by the way, I already have G23 which I carry.


I'll be bringing "several" Glocks, among other things when I make my move...

My friends in Moscow are going to Selway Bitteroot this summer. I just hope that I can go with them. It will be a hoot. I haven't been there for what 12 years. I can't believe that it has been so long ago. I have to start purchasing equipment to go out with them. Northern Idaho is absolutely beautiful. I just wish that I had more time and money to do the things that I would like to.
Raiderman, if we can do the shooting before the end of May, it would be perfect because I will be leaving Boise at the end of May. I hope to see you all soon.:supergrin:

You are makin me jealous now, there's just about nothin as gorgeous as the Selway Bitterroot for backcountry. I was going to get a few friends and do the Old Idaho Motorway tour on ATV's through there, last time I camped out there was out at Jerry Johnson Hot Springs, where the rivers meet, wow, that is one fantastic area. I flyfish there whenever I pass through but never seem to have enough time to stop and stay a while.

Nanananananananananana:tongueout: J/K :rofl:I am hoping that he goes to the Selway Bitterroot when I do not have drill. I am trying to get used to the idea that I have to take the air on faith because you can't see it and can't chew it in Northern Idaho, unlike some of the big cities. I don't think that we will go to Jerry Johnson Hot Springs because of what some people do there. Oh, the gratuitous nudity. I have never flyfished but I cannot wait to go fishing again.

[GreenDrake]

There's a great little beach to camp on just below Selway Falls, it's awesome.

[combatmedic78]

Last time that my friends and I were there, we stayed on a beach but I don't remember the water falls. I think that I am getting the camping trips at Selway and Seven Devils all mixed up. It has only been what 12 years. Are you allowed to carry in National or State parks? I am just wondering if anyone knows.

Yes you are OK to carry there. National no, State yes, and you don't even need a permit to carry concealed as long as you are "recreating" so it's all good.

[dewidmt]

Well... I was a "temporary" Idahoan. 2001-2007. Stationed at Mountain Home and retired from there, got married and moved to Nampa. Now divorced, living in Indiana and missing all my hunting spots....waaaah! If you guys want to shoot, hook up with the club at Parma..we had a great club, IDPA, IPSC, long range sniper dudes, shotgun gurus...just about everybody. great bunch of guys. They have a website, just google Parma Rod and Gun.....

[combatmedic78]

Thanks, Greendrake for answering my question about the parks.


On the other note, I have been to the Parma range with my military unit. It was hard but fun. We did reflexive firing, along with firing while moving up on targets, shooting around barricades, and in groups of two, we had to clear out a trench with different targets around each corner. It kicked butt. I just wish that we had gone out there again.

You need to repent and comeback to God's country. Once an Idahoan, always a Idahoan. You need to stop crying:crying:and do something about it. You won't miss your hunting spots anymore. Did you do a lot of the shooting contests there at Parma? How hard is it to get into a club?

[dewidmt]

I shot IDPA once a month at Parma, IPSC once a month at Emmett, and Cowboy at Black's Creek and Emmett. Also, the Impact Guns shop in Meridian runs an indoor IDPA match every month with the guys from Parma. Not hard to get shooting, I never was a full-fledged member of ANY of these clubs! You just show up and shoot with the guys, it was pretty laid back, but safe and educational. Parma goes so far as to run a HOT RANGE...pretty unheard of in todays day and age. The thinking was, you're already carrying CCW anyway, walking around with a loaded gun shouldn't be that big of a deal, just don't draw it till yer on the firing line....we never had an accident in the 5years I shot there. Parma also offers a couple guys with real world experience who like to do "Patrol shoots" (shooting a 400 yd course of fire on the run carrying all yer gear), long distance shoots, we're talking like 900 yds here, and we often had a gentleman from Oregon coming to teach us certified classes in things like tactical shotgun, advanced handgun use, things like that. Look up the website (google PGRC) and hook up with either Aaron Goodfellow or his dad Neill. The guy to contact at Emmett for IPSC is Rich Redovian, his e-mail is on the Gem County Gun Club webpage (google GCRGC).
As for Indiana, I'm from here and moved back to help out my folks who are getting up there in years. I've got 20 acres in Southern Indiana and can shoot deer out my back door, but it's still not like hikin the foothills and jumpin some Chukar or Huns. I'll be back out there in another 10-15 years if you all haven't let the Californians take over and pave over all of the Treasure Valley!

That is something that I am worried about with my parents. They have a few years before I can see them at that point of needing help. The thing is that i know how fragile health can be. I am trying to get through school all of that before anything happens to them. I know that my brothers and my sister are in no shape to help take care of them.
I am sorry to say but Southern Idaho looks like especially the Boise area has been taken over by a certain group of unmentionalble people. I love Northern Idaho so much more. My parents own a house that is surrounded by blue grass that the deer love to graze on. A lot of times, you can shoot just from the back door of the house. There are tons of deer up in Northern Idaho. I helped my brother skin a deer but I still need to learn to do it all on my own.
Take care.

I went out purchased 200 rounds of 45 acp for our day of shooting after your tax season is over, of course. Wow, I can't believe the size of the hole that I put in my wallet. All I have to do is wait for my new Glock to arrive, and then watch an even bigger hole in my wallet develop. I have about 4 more weeks to wait for my 30sf, it is driving me crazy. I am tempted to drive to GA to see if I can pick it up now.:supergrin::wavey:

[combatmedic78]

Glocktotinraider,
I have thought about 9mm but I can get a couple mags and conversion barrel for my G23 if I really want to shoot 9mm. On the other hand, I would like to get a full set, 1-40s&w, 1-45acp, and 1-9mm. It would be another 450 dollars or so. If I did it, I would especially go through Glock because they sell them cheaper then the places around here since I am reserve. Why don't you have your wife order a Glock through the Hero's price. It will save you some green, if you don't need it right now. :supergrin:

To be honest I have never thought about that. And to mix it up a little I am thinking of getting one of those new Kel-Tec 9mm's just to add some variety to my collection. As of yesterday I ordered my G30 from my gunshop so I am happy bout that but its on the layaway plan for a few more weeks. I have a baby due anytime.

Pocatello here!!!

Born and raised here in Idaho and have lived here most of my life other than a few years overseas. I love it here and love the rest of the state as well. We usually vacation in central Idaho as I have a fondness for the Selway/Bitteroot. I have only ventured up north a few times and words can't describe it. Those of us in the Rockies and Northwest are truly blessed.

GKL I do not wish to have a sequel to the "War of Northern Aggression" I just want to show off OUR great state to all others. Please do share your pics, it is nicer up there anyway.
But, you do have more former Kalifornians than we do. :)


Hah, they live here one winter and decide that Treasure Valley is better...and more like California...

:tempted:

I don't want to post any more Idaho is Great pics. I'm pissed off about the snow right now.

[SaWuttae]

I still haven't made my way to north Idaho, McCall is farthest I've made it....I'm sure it's nice up there......can't be any worse than SW Idaho......someday....

[GreenDrake]

I will be in Idaho in a couple of weeks training with GlocksterPaulie, he said he was going to run me pretty hard.

Ahh Paulie is a good guy, he won't run ya hard, besides, you can't get very far right now, too much snow in the woods, where else is he going to run you? The Fernan range? Paulie, I know you are a lurker, come on out and play my man, when we doin lunch at Capone's?

Anyone home.

I am sorry my fellow Northern Idahoans. It sounds like I will be staying in Boise for a few more years because of my chance to get into the nursing program down here at BSU. I know that you are so disappointed in me. You all please enjoy the trees, the nice clean air, and so on. As soon as I can, I will be back up there.:wavey:

[SaWuttae]

Woo go BSU nursing! I guess.....I'm 3 or so weeks away from finishing my bachelor's in nursing........

I still have a long way to go. I am getting close to finishing all of my prerequisites. By the time that I start the nursing program, I should be able to finish a lot of the electives that they want you to take to finish with a bachelor's degree.

The tutor for anatomy and physiology is asking me to tutor for Koob's A&P class next year, and I think that I will do it. It should be fun. Hey, it will give me a part time job at 9 dollars an hour too. At least it is something extra.:wavey:

[mailman994]

LCSC just started construction on a new nursing building. Suppose to be finished in a year or so $16 mill. There always seems to be a waiting list for the program.

[SaWuttae]

I thought with the new program you pretty much have to have prereqs done first, because the new program is only 2.5 years to bachelors, no associates option like there is now.

And yeah, tutoring for A and P will be good, you'll learn/remember a lot more than the average student....and get paid.

Got out when I could GlockTotin!!! (((ducking))) :whistling:

My folks live near Blackfoot. Got family in Poky, American Falls, Twin, Boise, Idaho Falls too.

Idaho is ok, pay sucked major butt there......couldn't make ends meet. The only way you make anything is to work out at the INEEL site west of Idaho Falls.........those folks make alot more than the average worker in Poky and I.F.

I got out to make a better living and I am doing it. I make about 5 times what I made in Idaho. Cost of living is not much lower there either according to my friends still there. Had to move south and to a huge city to make a better living. :dunno:

I may be out in those parts in July.......that's a MAYBE. I cringe when I think of dropping 600 bucks for an airfare to SLC, then have to rent a car to drive up there..........can you say "$1,000 vacation"?? I knew ya could!!

OMG!!! I so do know that mountain!! Driven near there A LOT!!! :wavey:

I really miss the mtns....the only thing I miss about being there.......I do NOT miss the fact it snows, and can snow 10 months a year.

I applied spring of last year, and I was denied. I am guessing because I had just gotten out of the military with no college. Two of the classes that I needed to take for the prerequisites when they changed over to the new system, I was unable to take. Now I have to wait another year so I can apply to the program.

A lot of the students that I go to class with think it is unfair because I catch onto things faster than they do. I jokingly tell them that I am cheating. I have about 8 years of experience in the medical field between EMT-B, CNA, and Medic in the military. Which helps me out a whole lot.

What are your plans with your degree? What type of facility are you wanting to work at? Any recommendations that you can give me about the nursing program.

[SaWuttae]

I've already got my associates in nursing, been working as an RN at St. Al's on the medical floor.

And as for tips....I don't know, I hear the new nursing program is better....but with any college program....learn what you can, and jump through the hoops. In your first year of work you'll learn 100x more than you learned in your time in nursing school.....

Bump Bump.

Where is everyone? Has everyone turned into spuds or something?

I finally got my G30sf, and I love it. It is a great shooting pistol. I am wondering if I should get another Glock pistol like a 21sf? Or should I get an AR15 or a AK47? Any suggestions.

Wildland season started alittle early this year, we had 2 back to back brush fires yesterday.

What gig are you starting? I am all for working with local GT'ers, if there's ever a way I can send business your way, I will, same goes for any of my fellow Idahoans, except for Boise State fans. :deadhorse:

[pulaskipusher]

You can send all the BSU fans you want my way. I'm working in the jail :)

[SaWuttae]

I'm working at St. Al's, don't drum me up any business please!

Last week of school, then i graduate....woo!

what happened to plans for a shoot??

[combatmedic78]

I am not sure. I know that Glocktotinraider was the one really wanting to do it. About a month ago, his wife and him had a new baby boy come into their family, and I have not been able to get a hold of him since then. I would be up to a shoot still but all I have is my 30sf right now.

[combatmedic78]

You mispoke about jail, you don't work there at all. It is your temporary living quarters for the next 20 years to life. (J/K).

I don't know if I could do that type of work. Be safe.

I just can't wait till I can say that magical word, it just seems so far away. I can hear you asking "What magical word?" Graduation and I am looking at Fall of 2011 before I can do that.

I am going to be so old by then. I will probably start drawing social security before then.:supergrin:

Have fun and be safe.
