Re: Spectrum

Only one good thing about the HOA at my house...cable service is cheap. We pay $65 to HOA for Comcast cable with more access than I will ever know and high speed internet service. I get 4 HD cable box and 2 non-HD box with that. Along with $500/month for everything else they "do for you"....

Re: Spectrum

For anyone on the fence, WOW has dropped their 2 year contract terms. I am on 10/100 internet with Spectrum and its $70/month. I was always curious about WOW, the only other carrier in our neighborhood, but the 2 year contract put me off. Sure, you could pay more to go month to month, but then the p...

Re: 529 plans, negative experiences? Alternatives?

We have 529s for both kids.

We recently went to one of those ‘how to pay for college’ seminars and they mentioned that the 529 would most likely be counted against the student when applying for financial aid. We’ll find out how much this matters in another two years i guess.

Re: FFL question

I picked up 4 guns last week, the check went through and I was out of there in minutes. I have never given my SSN for a 4473, ever. I’m not sure if you’re aware, but any time you purchase 2, or more handguns from a FFL at the same time, a letter is sent the next day to the ATF about the multiple pu...

Re: Solvent Traps... a wink wink nod nod silencers?!?

Although the 30 day form1 wait is super tempting over the Form4 process. in the last 10 days I've heard from two separate gun store owners that Individual Form 4 filed for a silencer takes about 2 months right now, in worse case 3 months... Must be nice. Im still trying to get an Obsidian 9 i bough...

Re: Solvent Traps... a wink wink nod nod silencers?!?

I was surprised at the price of some of these solvent traps. I would like another 22 suppressor and some of the kits are well over $200 plus. For that price, I'm going with something for just a few bucks more from a real suppressor company. Although the 30 day form1 wait is super tempting over the F...
