I am in for the Olight SR51.
I emigrated from the USA to Australia a few years ago. I was injured recently and didn't look at the news for a few weeks. When I got back to it, I realized that this whole "Donald Trump" thing isn't a joke after all. What a shock...

What I want to show you is the French version of going down Niagara falls in a barrel. It's trying to drive as fast as possible around the centre of Paris on the "Route Periferique", a 22 mile 360 degree bypass. A young man (nickname The Black Prince) did it under 10 minutes on a 140 hp motorcycle with an average speed of 110 mph, not in the middle of the night, but in morning traffic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cH1-tieh9rA This is part of a German TV documentary wit the catching sub-title: "nur der Tod fährt schneller" roughly translated: only death drives faster.

I am in for the Olight SR51. Thank you for the chance.

A very big deal for lenders: Effective yesterday, Saturday, October 3 all of the paperwork people in the USA were required to be given for the purchase or refinance of a home has gone away, or completely changed. No more Good Faith Estimate or Truth in Lending statement (GFE and TIL) and no more HUD-1 Settlement Statement. All of that cryptic, mismatching nonsense is GONE, replaced with 2 documents that will now match up almost identically from the beginning of application to final closing. Called TRID for TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosures it's now the law of the land and actually a pretty big deal in the United States.

The new documents are called Loan Estimate (LE) given within 3 days of application and the Closing Disclosure (CD) which now must be FINAL and provided 3 days prior to consummation of loan. So it's sort of a pre-closing for lenders now.

So, when shopping for a mortgage in the U.S.A. dont ask for a GFE anymore from the lender!

How can you tell a male chromosome from a female chromosome?





Pull down its "genes".

I have been using this one for over 30 years of teaching. I just can't help myself.

Thanks for the giveaway.

Something interesting.
Did you know bubble wrap was invented in 1957 by 2 guys trying to make 3d wallpaper? Made crappy wallpaper but was great for packing. Just thought that might be something different. Lol

I have a Fenix PD35 and gave a Thrunite TN14 to my girlfriend, plus an Armytek to my buddy. I'd like to have a thrower for searching for my dog when he runs away. Lol

Thanks as always for doing this. Your generosity is unreal bud!

This talk-box cover for a Daft Punk song is pretty awesome. I like Daft Punk, but I feel they have been a little heavy handed in the past for "sampling" other songs without truly giving credit where due. I guess that can be said for a lot of musicians these days though.
