    As long as i get my paycheck, i dont care. At least this time I don't have to drive with a neck brace and opioids in my system. September will be 10 years as a fed, was hoping to retire as one. Not so sure anymore... Been working with gov since 04 in some way or another. Its all I know now.

    Yeah you cry wolf enough times no one is going to freak out anymore. All these CRs just kept kicking the can down the road until finally sides refused to agree.

    Hope you pay your TSP loan off quick and start earning some good interests again. I look at www.tsptalk.com almost every day and compare the funds at a weekly basis. I haven’t traded in over a year though because all are doing so well.

    Is anyone interested in a Bussmann? I'm pricing things out to build one for myself and given the minimum quantities for a lot of the parts it makes sense to build more than one. I'm not sure how many I want to commit to building, but I think maybe 5 would be the most I would consider building (including mine).

    I haven't finished pricing out all the little things (like heat shrink, etc), so I can't comment on an exact price yet as it will also depend on quantity built and if you want mating connectors or just wire ends to attach to. For reference, I'm just over $300 now for what I need to build mine with mating connectors, 10 gauge wire for everything coming off the Bussman, 4 gauge main power wire to the battery, and other things that you might not need/want (like wire/connectors for harness into the cab and 8 gauge to power my OBA compressor in the bed cubby).

    Could someone sum up what was in it? I think whatever was in it has been wiped.

    Apparently bama had fallen behind on some orders, and stopped responding to messages. In the following days people started digging up some dirt on him, including some jail time for child pron charges. The lynch mob formed, and things got pretty ugly. Bama came back and gave an apology for being MIA, and included the reasoning for the charges was to protect his (then) underage daughter who was using the computer to sext her boyfriend. Choose whether or not to believe it, that is up to you.

    Thats all in a nutshell, unless i missed any further developments.

    That's pretty much it. It was still a great train wreck to watch. Tcbob has since cleaned up the thread.

    One or two things modded... Check out the build thread

    You forgot about the multiple visits to county for check fraud and other money related issues... the mob exposed that as well.

    Also the fact that this was apparently his 3rd or 4th strike for the same issue, yet somehow still isn't out?
