AZ BS Thread 4²0

Haven't been to one in a WHILE.
The smell was almost like Comicon and we were in an open air parking lot.
You could set up an Old Spice Deodorant booth and make a mint.

 

Pfft, those cheap bastards would never pay. But please buy their 20yr old rig for 5% off MSRP.

 

I'm just surprised to see so many lurkers come out of the woodworks the last 24 hours.

Happy Thursday, gents and ladygents.

 

1 week till 40...

Hopefully I will get to come out to the cinders takeover! I kind of want to see if I can get some air in the 4runner, but I think maybe my spindles might explode because I have not gusseted them. Are there other weak links on the airborne toyotas that I would have to worry about?

 

As anal as you are about stuff being perfect. You should not jump your daily driver.

 

Hey I've made good progress on the OCD/Anxiety front. I don't mind getting shit for it still but legit my life is so much better without as many panic attacks. I can live my life with wheels that are 5-footers without having to get them refinished.

But probably wise advice because it is my DD. I would definitely like it to track straight and not have too much bent.

 

You only turn 40 once, send it.

 

Since we're on the topic of RC, here's a couple of my 1/10 trucks...

 

While I'm always strapped leaving the house I also carry a TQ with me and have kits in both my trucks. NAR makes some good "pocket" or "door" sized kits. I have advanced things in it... but paramedic... I'll risk my license practicing medicine off duty if it means saving a life.

 

Is AZ hard on civilian first aid? I was under the impression that as long as you're "operating within your scope of practice" and not doing "surgery" ie criking someone or doing needle decompression you were good nationwide

 

Assuming the "advanced things in it" means decompression needle etc.

 

I can and will dart someone to save a life. In my scope of practice? Yes. On duty acting under a medical director? No. That's where someone could get me/you.

 

Would that not fall under Good Samaritan doctrines?

Nothing advanced like that.

That covers basic first aid and non-invasive procedures such as tourniquet application, Israeli bandage application, gauze, quick clot, chest seals... you get the idea.

Sticking a needle into someones chest to decompress it, is not covered under the Good Samaritan law(s). That would be classified as an invasive medical procedure.

 

Ah, I see - apologies. I overlooked this message.

I was still on the "door kit" comment and didn't think we'd ventured past the basic first aid realm.

 

Haha no worries. I've fucked up speed reading too many times to judge
