  1. oh really???? herm. I thought so but wasn't sure.. its basically dealer "mark up" right? Still $800 for 3000 bike is rediculous. thanks for the tip in case I go for new bike... its kind not happening I think.
  2. I posted it originally to LadySureShots Forums but hey, I want welcome from men too, so instead of moving it (too much trouble getting premission from everyone congrate me already. Some might not want to have her/his post be moved to generic area) I repost here. ---------------------------------------- Let me say this is an acomplishment. I found a perfect, perfect house in Tempe, Phoenix area and submitted offer. I will be moving in end of January. yay!! So, all you guys at Rio Salado, ready or not, I am coming to get ya (as if!) And, I will have a moving in party, I am a great cook and all free food and drinks. What you think??? Sooooo, it looks like party must be held on Feb 4th, Randy vs. Chuck at my new place! Can't plan better than this. I will annonuce officially next year. I will start party earlier so people who doesn't like to watch fights can go home early. Its just so great because Annette, Cindy, Debie (newly transplanted from San Diego) Carly, Trisha, Princess (Tsuson) and all the girls are in Phoenix area. It's like Lady's Camp on every match. I just can not wait to see you and hang out wih you!!!!
  3. Hi One of the articles I prepared for LadySureShots Forums is a brief introduction for shooting sprots. Like: first list ALL the shooting sprots/leage/associations. Including USPSA to sporting clay to olympic, bullseye, PPC (is that PCP, no, PPC right?), long gun, three gun..... then, briefly discribe how its like, what gears you need and star-rating for difficulties to participate and most importantly, stage discription. Then, discribe class/ranking. if USPSA, differences in prod/limt/open and how one become say, B class. Can you guys help me by pointing out already written articles or bette yet, write some up? It will be a great help for a beginner. Its almost like reading a user manual before buying a DVD player. Appreciated!!!!
  4. That's how I always thought what's that story is saying and never liked it, especially hearing growing up in Japan, where fatalism prevails. Like do not trust scoripion whatever he says. I don't know where this story originated from though.
  5. Buhahahha! LOL. Thank you all and thank YOU all ladies for getting here, and thank you Brian too for all the work. Please let your wife/girlfriends join if they shoot and if you could spread the words that would be awsome.
  6. Dude SlideGlide rocks. The recoil dumping ability is like "WOW" instantly. I will never shoot without it. BTW, I didn't know until recently you are supposed to or you can put alot (compare to what I used to put) on your gun.
  7. after I shot oh-my-god-this-is-so-hard area 2 stages, I appreciate difficult stages at club matches more. I am even planning to help set up stages once I get back (I'm in phoenix now) with lots of swingers. I did taped even I agreed with Erik since that was the squad's majority opinion. But, from little experience I helped set up stages, it's so discouraing setting up stages only to found some shooter find the loophole and make it easy. Myabe I should help writing the discription since I have degree in law!!!!!
  8. I have a feeling you decided not to make a prototype because you didn't want to send Casey Moore into bunkrupcy.... eh???
  9. so finally i went a dealer today and found out. They charge fright fee, assemble fee and such costing $800. plus tax 8% or so and lacensing fee for 300 or so, totallying $4300 out the door for $3000 bike in AZ. E-bay or even buying it in CA and moving it with me looks like cheaper choice given $800 markup there. Geez. I didn't know they have to charge "assemble" fee... I can assemble myself for gods sake! I have done putting 2 bikes into one before!
  10. I said "no way!" too. Crazy. My choice now is to buy new fo $3000+10% for tax etc. Or, used for $2900, which has 2000 miles on it. Its just $400 difference. If this is the car, it would be much much more difference isn't it? Maybe in Arizona where I am buying, Ninja is in short suply. Or, winter is coming and everybody decided to buy buy buy.... That's the only reasoning I can come up with. Next time I buy a bike in AZ, I will make sure to do so in dead summer heat of 115F!
  11. It's not help but I should'be DQed many times!!! Its soooo hard to have everything right when you are pumped up with adrenaline.... The guys at Richmond, my home club, are just bunches of sweet pies and has given me a slack on me this. I changed to push the button with my left thumb, which you'd like to avoid if you can because it takes time bit longer, but it made a bit of difference. But I still get close (or break ) 180 and put an pink dot on where you see on mag well, so that when I see the pink, the gun wouldn't look sideways...
  12. Ok this beats Virtual Air Guitar... !!! Genius! or not! beer belly kit sneak booze (or whatever) under your shrits. You just look like a guy with big guts!
  13. I just couldn't help myself LOLing when I saw this. You slap the special gloves on and just do that air guitaring (trademarked by rock fans) and the machine will somehow play music according to your "movement" Virtual Air Guitar
  14. nope. stock as stock can be... and there are MANY of them listed almost same as new price when millage is below 3000 miles or so. so puzzling
  15. Help me figure out! Is 2004 Ninja250R collector's item? MSRP $2999 and I see ads in CycleTrader.com for $2900 for 2000ml, and like even $3400! Usually, when product leave store in hand of customer, its already half price, that's market (?) principle. There must be something I am missing.... like, its collector's item. People can lie on pink-slip price and lie abot it..... does anyone know?????
  16. Oh my god I know this story from childfood.... but never knew what exactly that means... that, we can not pretend as someone else? That, don't believe what scoripon says?

    But I remember when I was a child, I jumped off from stairwell TOTALLY believing I can fly.... only to hit the ground and I was in utter disbelief.... This is how Uma Thruman managed to get that super-power on Kill Bill 2 right??? :)
  18. You are welcome Boy isn't that so? when you think about getting rid of "thoughts" then you think, therefore thoughts never goes away.
  19. WOW Nolan, that's an investment=asset, not riablity for gods sake!! Smart guy you are! But but but I can not see myself riding Harley... I have been sprots bike girl for life I can not even find the handle bar without my tummy parallel to the tank
  20. Report: Ok, there's NOOOOO way I can handle SV650. Its the monster. Maybe I am conservetive but since I have crash experience many many time, ability to control when I go "f*&k" is so important. Bummer. I am reading up Ninja250R and found out its only cosmetically changed since 1999.

    You are absolutely right!!!t But it's also just such a pitty. You know what's one of the best seller dating book for women? Its called "Why Men Love Bitches". The book says if we women try hard, like cooking anything more than microwivable popcorn, we will never here from him again. So, ingnore him, make youserlf not aviable, and do nothing for him. that's the advise of the book. Because men likes to chase and hunt impossible to obtain prize. And, yes, from my experience, that is absolutely right too. But then, you men feels the same. If you do something nice to her, you wouldn't hear from her again. It's like unstoppable spiral downward both gender try hard to do "you aren't that important to me" game. It's just so sad. LOL!! and LOL for Coffee and Granla bar from Tightlool....

    Tightloop Hahahaha! Didn't mean to solicit dating tips but tThanks for a good one. Nice to know things are so old-school there. I better move :D In california, "get to know as friends" is always the way.. so it's like "wanna grub some tea or coffee?" A guy who actually ask woman out on an actual date is dying breed here! But whoa. Jeeper and Tightloop both thinks so eh? Pretty eye opening... Maybe I will launch "give me dating tips" on "questions it doesn' fit anywhere"

    Gosh, its nice to hear actual testimony, because it gives me hope. What bumms me out is like, some guys would say "oh, I love independent woman who knows about herself!" to me and only to get into relationship with helpless one who doesn't have sh*t together. It has been puzzling but happening over and over like "even you?" frequency, those qualites this Andy guy says "value" is actually a self-decieving lie or it makes me doubt myself. Sorry for the thread drift. I happed to be pondering on this right now.....
  24. Trash talking is gettig wrose though. UFC's program is now bit too cordinated like WWF. I hate that. EVERY fighter says "i will kick his ass" on the clips before the fight. I don't like that format. I get my UFC From netflix. They didn't have any before but all of sudden alot of them. Do anyone know the soruce (rent) for Pride FC? Pride is more wresling oriented and I like it.
  25. By chance, I got to shoot with BOTH Erik Warren and James Ong in same squad today. How great! And, our Open class A shooters I admire, Chris, Todd and John decided to shoot production today!!! I was like Yay!! It was such a learning chance. Compare to how they shoot Open, they all planned stage differently and shot/moved differently. More deliberate and slower. I watch those Open shooters and unintentionally tried to shoot like them - stage planning-wise, transition, movement and all - and got frustrated. Now I know production and vibrator (that's we No-cal limited guys call open gun ) are different animals. I am still so tired from Ladies Camp and Area 2 and had a brain failures here and there but learned so much and enjoyed alot.
