Not this exact one, but my sister sells planes for a living and my brother is a licensed pilot, so the two of us and my sister in law are pitching in and buying him a used 1999 Diamond DA20 off one of my sister's clients. Mechanically and structurally it's amazing, but the upholstery is jacked and he's saying he'll want to pull out most of the avionics and go digital. All in all though, I can't wait till he takes me flying in it

I may not have Omega Speedmaster money but I guess I do have Citizen money: I had a titanium Citizen Skyhawk that I really, really liked about a decade ago--then I left it in a hotel room in Japan, I've regretted it ever since, and I want a new nice-ish watch. And drat, I sure as hell don't have airplane money--jacked upholstery is easily fixable though, nice find. If it happens to be near Illinois, I know a family friend that does aircraft interiors, if you're looking for any recommendations in that area.

Took the plunge and got a ps4. Going to take the plunge in a bit and pre-order wolfenstein, so I can spend most of next week stabbing nazis in the head.

He didn't mind it, but he's a very tactile bird and is frequently handled and played with. He chewed on it a bit initially indoors, and then once we got outside was too interested in the Great Outdoors to pay it any attention.

Hey, I own dress shoes. I know when it's appropriate to wear dress shoes. But in an office environment with a shirt-and-tie dress code, where I'm running around and crawling under people's desks working with computers, dress shoes don't work. leidend posted:Do you have the specific name of these? I never find totally black Nikes and could use them for work (not dress shoes, don't worry ylls goons). Air One TR. These were my second choice when the New Balance shoes I wanted didn't come in my size.

I just did the opposite & purchased one of these:  Bánh mì from a local Asian grocery store deli next to my friend's place in Seattle. I don't eat sandwiches too often (much less bánh mì) so I need to remind myself that these are excellent.

 IMAX movies on laserdisc. Bought these four but there was one I really wanted to get: "To Fly", which I finally got to see in proper IMAX 70mm at the Air and Space Museum last month. "The Dream is Alive" hasn't even been opened! It still has stickers on it from when it was on sale at Tower Records god knows how many years ago.

 Kershaw Chill. I needed a one handed light EDC knife since my mini grip broke, and didn't want to spend a lot. This knife has impressed me beyond belief in quality under price. Best sub $20 knife I've had. Very light and understated but still very capable at delivering for 99% of daily tasks. JNCO BILOBA has a new favorite as of 04:23 on May 15, 2014 |
