    Yup I agree. One of the guys here has a 50 and he was thinking about selling it. I said no thanks

    Unless you reload, it's not worth it unless you want to spend $5/rnd, and that's if you can find it. I can't imagine it's sitting on the shelves at Bass Pro...

    You weren't in Framingham yesterday by any chance? Saw a guy in a truck just like yours drive by me with a snowblower in the back

    My buddy has a beowulf. It's a fun gun. Was paying around $1 a round. One of these days I want to put the upper on another friends F/A lower.

    What's the recoil like on that? F/A with a round like that has to be nuts! Would be fun with an old car to shoot up at the range though.

    During that big storm last week one of the Geek Squad VW Beetles got scooped up and deposited in a snowbank by a front end loaded plowing the lot at a Best Buy. Driver didn't even know he'd scooped it, lol!

    Took forever to bring my daughter to daycare this morning. Apparently people don't know how to drive even after the snow stops. Literally an 1.25 hours to get from Hopkinton to Framingham. Should have just taken back roads. Annoying

    It's funny, I drive from North Reading to Andover on my street. Coming from my house, all the roads are narrow, the snow build up is thicker, and it's generally much more icy/slippery. Then you cross into North Reading, on the same street. Streets are like twice as wide, they're scraped down well, and they aren't too slippery.

    Either Andover doesn't care about our secondary roads, or we are on a tight budget.

    One of my customers plows for the state on the highway in a 10-wheel dump truck. He makes $198 an hour....

    For my city it's usually lack of budget. Last year, our roads still had snow on them 2 days after everyone else was down to pavement.

    I'd imagine most towns are now digging pretty deep into their snow removal budgets, if not having surpassed it already.

    I know I have. The 5 gallon can of fuel for the snow blower is almost empty. I don't know what I'm going to do! :goingcrazy:

    Lol. If it makes you feel better, I've tanked the Dodge twice in the last week.
    Of course, I don't know how accurate the fuel gauge is (I'm erring on the side of caution and going with "not very"), so I don't let it drop below 1/4, and usually I just put $20 at a time in. :notsure:

    I tell you what though, if Thursday brings anything significant, mine won't throw over the bank at the end of the driveway any longer. Damn thing must be 7' tall! I had the chute aimed up as high as I could last night and it was barely clearing. I'll have to start getting creative with snow placement if this keeps up.

    I usually park in the corner where other people don't.
