  1. Nikon does a better job at attracting newbies. Newbies only care about MP and NIkon has got Canon beat on MP/$ We'll see how much shooting I do when I move and lose the landscape opportunities I have here. The fear of stopping the hobby is what's stopping my from investing more money into it.
  2. The release of the 7Dii also made the value of used 7D's drop like a sack of potatoes. So much so that even my broke ass could afford one.
  3. Thanks fellas. Did good enough to get a job and get into grad school. That's good enough for me!
  4. Took the last final of my undergrad career.
  5. It wasn't a beautiful day, but it's a picture nonetheless lighthouse by frostedflakejake1, on Flickr
  6. Shit got deep in the hop. I'm not as wise as Stefan so i'll tango. I guess that would depend on what you believe God's role is. If you're "programmed" to die early, why can't other people be programmed by the same god to develop something to derail you from your early death? I hope I'm programmed to find a rich busty woman....
  7. You mean finger picking? Or you mean finger tapping? Either are fine. I took classical lessons for 11 years and in high school played Eruption while hosting the battle of the bands during a set change to keep the crowd entertained. Pick work is what is demoralizing to me. The stupidly easy 3, 8, 3, 4 open E pattern in Holy Wars is just not playable for me anymore. I can't say that I spend much time practicing it, but that is also because it pisses me off since I can't nail the damn rhythym. I can't believe I'm having a hard time finding a video to accurately describe this. My lack of understanding probably stems from the one "fingerstyle" artist i saw live playing in a certain way. What I mean is kind of like playing a guitar like a piano, where you have both a harmony and melody element existing simultaneously. This requires great finger picking work (what i'm struggling with). I imagine your classical training would help you exceed at something like this. Kinda like the first few seconds of this: https://youtu.be/CJ0pFGHdEcU?t=227
  8. Sean can you do any fingerstyle work? Never had any experience with it and just started trying it. I knew I would struggle but holy cow is it demoralizing!!!
  9. I'm sure i paid for it through tuition....
  10. Anyone know what happened to Duran?
  11. Went to a free stunt show today! edited bikes by frostedflakejake1, on Flickr
  12. Don't want to get off topic, but do you know why you fried the coil on the SSD? Just want to make sure you don't spend more hard earned $$$ on equipment and then ruin it again.
  13. I have that set in gold. My problem stemmed from these two things: I couldn't get the insert nuts perfectly square on all four corners. I did get them close enough to where I didn't think it would be a problem My carpet is so spongy that the discs the spikes were resting on would sink into the carpet a far ways. This caused me to make them almost as tall as possible using the threaded rod. This amplified the non-square insert nut problem. Ended up bending a rod.So mostly user error. But it can be difficult to get those things in there perfectly square. Just my experience. If you're careful and patient they'll probably work just fine
  14. Not surprised
  15. Make sure the spikes can handle the weight. Had problems with the Dayton ones on my HT box
  16. Is on the Mustang. I don't have the tool, was going to do the second video's route. Only other route is change the rims which I don't really want to do. I dont see why not. The only issue would be the quality of the metal that you are trying to roll out and maybe getting the paint too hot Worked fine with the baseball bat. I didn't have to worry about paint. Glad to hear that. I have that eastwood paint roller and I am less than impressed with it.
  17. I ran an Iraggi 260 amp alternator with a SAZ-3000D and one Shuriken BT-120 in the back to accommodate my stock battery and I never saw lower than 12.5 at idle on full tilt. But then again I hardly ever ran full tilt at idle. I also never did dual 0/1 for batteries. I did a single line to positive and a single line to ground. Need to do the big 3 once you get the equipment. 12awg will be fine.
  18. No FWD for me please
  19. I've been contemplating the E30 bandwagon. Between that and TurboII RX7.
