Which isn't to say the predecessor was bad. No, it was quite excellent. But this one is just absolutely spectacular.

A little hilarious reading. It's about firearms in MA, basically, a list mostly of those illegal in the state. What I hate is that the store makes it sounds like these companies are all at fault for not being willing to bend over backwards for one fucked up state.

We have two lists here. One is I believe run by the state police or something, the other by the Attorney General (Coakley). The gun must be on BOTH lists to be sold here. Their restrictions are subjective, draconian, and destructive - three guns of any model must be dropped on a concrete floor from substantial height.

Five of them. $8000 worth of pistols that will be beaten to hell by a bunch of government idiots who know nothing about guns, and even then might not be approved.

FS even acknowledges Les Baer keeps their production low to ensure quality... but still encourages them to send guns in for annihilation.

You'd think I was making these idiots take a PhD exam in the calculus of aerodynamics.

IT IS A FORM FOR AN OPTIONAL FUCKING PICNIC THAT YOU IDIOTS PROOFREAD AND TESTED. STOP BUGGING ME WITH CHANGES!

I hide the form submit button until the required fields are completed. The required fields are clearly marked in red and if you hover over them, a message pops up telling you to fill them out. They want me to not require certain fields. Excuse me, if you don't require the "number of children attending" field and a bunch of morons submit without completing it and show up with 20 kids, what happens?

Yeah - long story short they had a deal on special ordered solid core doors. I asked if they could do an 82" ROUGH IN height - which is NOT standard. I specifically stated this was the rough in opening height
They said sure no problem. I was super happy because I would not have to modify a door and frame to fit (steel beam in the way). Asked for them to place the order. A week later I get the call asking if they wanted to place the order. ??!! I thought it had already been placed. Turns out they also put down 82 3/4" as the rough in size (so the door wouldn't fit) and the wrong widths. Oh - but my 82" rough in height would need to be custom (yes I know that - thats why I asked before placing the order) and it will be $144 more - almost double.

Well, they worked with me on the price since I had a printed quote but I would need to wait for the factory to make them since they were custom. No big deal I understand. They promised to call me when they came in - about 21 days. Today is day 20 so I called. Seems they have been there for 7 days already. thanks for calling and letting me know - like you said you would!

Course my dishwasher from Lowe's is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. I called them to confirm and gave them my wife's cell since she will be home instead of me. 1 hour later I get a call saying the dishwasher is in and asking if I want it delivered. :rolleyes: Whatever. I confirmed the number they had to call tomorrow and lo and behold they didn't have my wife's number on the order. Well - I gave it to them a second time

I guess we will see what happens....
