Thanks! I'm looking forward to finally checking out Nightbreed.


I'm still kinda cheap when it comes to buying movies with the rare exception of certain titles. lol.


Nice Motel Hell avatar!

Yeah Nightbreed is great. I watched a movie last night called Jacks Back, with James Spader (1988), and it turned out pretty decent. It had that weird Italian slasher/Dario Argento feel to it.

Are all the 40s plastic where you live now? Only glass we have left here is Colt 45. Pisses me off. Drinking Mickeys and OE out of a plastic bottle just isn't the same.

Plastic 40's? The end of days is definitely here.

Mumonkan 01-07-15 06:10 AM

seriously, what the **** is that?

franswa 01-07-15 08:01 AM

I thought everyone drank craft cocktails these days.

bro 01-07-15 12:06 PM

i think mickeys, oe, and magnum are plastic at my store, but colt 45, pbr, king cobra, budweiser, etc. are still glass. he got me budweisers.

jlafitte 01-07-15 12:35 PM

boycott that plastic, get royal with The King.

There's a lot of people from Thailand trying to buy my CAAD on ebay. Weird.

Found out Salsa chainrings are @#$%@&* great. I swear I'm gonna start hoarding all NOS 130 BCD ones I can find.

A guy from Israel asked if I would ship there. Shipping was nearly as much as I'm asking for the bike. I assumed scammers?

I asked on the Paceline forum, and they've had success shipping overseas as long as it's all within the ebay/paypal infrastructure. I just don't want to deal with that extra hassle.

Surprising... Guess it could be legit. Just have a hard time believing someone would want to pay $900+ to ship a $1000 bike! I'm with you though, the hastle isn't worth it.

No 40s in Florida, by law. Only 32s. :(

I got one off of craigslist, 45 t, and I honestly have never thought about it since I put it on, quality is definitely there

They made two different 130BCD styles; one has the typical cutouts like Shimano/Sugino and others have really nice looking reliefs cut into them on the inside edges near the teeth. I especially like the latter, which is what I currently have.

Haha it's not terrible if it works.
Plus, there's somebody out there that'd pay out the nose for it because it's handmade in USA and sustainably made from scrap wood. ;)

Haha thanks. I didn't have a square or clamps, so there is room for improvement

Had cataract surgery this morning. Not a big deal but off the bike, at least on the road, for a week. Two weeks the other eye and another week off the bike. But I should be able to have good distance vision without glasses. Take notice "kids" this getting old is tough stuff:cry:
