    My latest aquisitions : a VHS copy of Nick Bougas' great documentary on Satanism, "Speak Of The Devil", The Gorezone label release of Fangoria's "The Last Horror Movie", and an option on an Epiphone Les Paul Heritage Cherry Sunburst.

    I just ordered the furnace, a mold and all the knick knacks I need to start casting my own bullets. Lead poisoning here I come!!!!!

    I also scored a couple of vintage reloading manuals today. One's from 1953 and the other from 1966. It's interesting to me to see the (limited) equipment and whatnot they had available back then.

    Gunpowder at that era?

    I thought back then, all they did was throw sticks! LOL

    My older bro was on the local news last night. Severe wind damage blew away his wooden privacy fence that was around the pool.

    You sure your brother didn't dismantle the fence to throw at the neighbors? The wind story's a pretty good cover story ;P

    Any good fishing lately? We need to get the fishing thread going again.

    This morning,my bro emailed me the video clip from the news.A lot of twisters were reported in ohio that day.

    Fishing:

    First troll of the year last sunday and got 1 saugeye that was 19" and a 13" throwback. Still cold-57 degree water temp. I'm happy that I didn't get skunked.

    Monday I close on my house and start moving in,and only 10 mins from the lake. Try buying a house now adays.They practically want a copy of everything except the size of your wang!!!!

    Hopefully everything will be moved by the middle of may then time for some Saugeye Slaughtering. I'll miss out on the crappie,but hopefully hit the white bass run then saugeye trolling.

    My favorite bait,the Firecraw is getting scarce. Bass pro had to backorder them,and now they don't even list them. So I went to lurenet.com and odered 20 of those suckers. I've even checked ebay.

    Neph: You know of any other large internet fishing tackle sites besides basspro,cabelas,and ebay? Bomber already discontinued my all time #1 saugeye killer the Fire Bass,now looks like the Fire Craw is next.

    1) 4 paycheck stubs,latest before the closing.
    2) Latest Bank statements from all accounts.
    3) 401k statement,balance to that date-end of feb was a killer.
    4) All current loans-which I didn't have any
    5) This year and last years w-2's
    6) Statement for employment status
    7) I had a cd to use as down payment which was almost time expire. They needed a copy of it. After the cd expired,they needed the entire paper trail from the time the cd expired,where I put it-ckecking account,how I put it in checking- bank-write check to me,I deposit into my account, Yada Yada Yada. Must think I have been laundering my money? LOL. Anybody with a Certificate of Deposit and planning to use it for a downpayment on a house,FOR THE LOVE OF GOD,don't tell that bank.
    8) Drivers liscense-which mine were expired, UGGH!
    9) Ding Dong size-before and after stimulation, LOL


    I did score 825 on my credit rating. Being debt free and no loan payments for a couple yrs dropped my rating a little bit.

    Ohio has one of the highest foreclosure rates in the country. It's probably got something to do with the arabs buying houses in columbus for $200,000 with no money down.They then borrow even more money for improvements on those houses-like another $200-300 g's. Finally they get the money and skip out of town,leaving the houses vacant since last summer!!!!!

    I just got my hands on a Mesa Boogie Triaxis tube preamp.
    Now i just need another Marshall tube amp to compliment my JVM410H and my cheapo MG100DFX that i use for bar gigs.
    *yes, i actually use a cheap solidstate marshall amp for small gigs, FOR SHAME !*
    And of course, i still need to decide wether i'll buy that Epiphone guitar...

    I just bought this marble of St. Michael the Archangel for my office. He's said to battle the devil so I thought he might spare me from my possessed clients! Neat eh?

    Very Cool Gerry.

    I love dramatic sculpture. When I played Oblivion I was amazed at all the statues and sculptures in the game, and all the back story they were afforded.

    My latest aquisition. A Bob Marley shirt.

    My newest acquisition, a set of tires for my car. Yokohama TRZ, previous tire was a Goodyear and I must say I can really feel the difference.

    I have my PSP with 4GB. Not as much space but I think it's a hell of a lot cooler as it can play some great games, has a way bigger screen and can play my PS1 games almost perfectly.

    But if just music is your thing or you like movies more I'd have to say go with the iPod for the better battery life.
