THR down, or is it just me? - Page 5

Ex-MA Hole · September 8, 2004, 08:25 AM

Does this mean that I no longer need to drag my knuckles?

Yep.

You can now "stand upright" hold your head up and be proud to a Firearm owner.

You will also find out the advantages of shooting with 2 hands instead of always having to drag a knuckle with one hand. Kinda neat to stand up and shoot.

Ex-MA Hole · September 8, 2004, 10:04 AM

Wow!!!

I'm actually 6' feet tall. I always thought that I was 4' 11"!!!

What a difference.

Wait...there's this girl in the office that's...well, you know...I liked the other view better!!!

Sorry-

I'm over tired.

Sindawe · September 8, 2004, 10:26 AM

for my THR fix.

But I'm not Jonesing as bad as the folk in FL w/o power.

The power outage at THR just gives Half Fast more time to finish the next chapter of "Lights out." Kinda appopriate, huh?

Laying prone ain't bad either.. LOL!

Speaking of THR, I'm starting to get the shakes..

[Actually, if a certain flashlight, from a certain THR member showed up in my mail box right about now, it would go a long way in helping my with THR withdrawls.. Somehow, I don't think that is going to happen.]

I'm expecting a Chinee SKS to arrive at my FFL's today from the same THR member.

Wildalaska · September 8, 2004, 01:17 PM

Okay, THR has been down, by my count, at least 48 hours, if not more.

Is the THR server in hurricane-ravaged Florida? Do they keep a stupid fluffy cat that sheds lots of cat-hair near the server?

Any status?

Sawdust · September 8, 2004, 01:49 PM

Well, c'mon WA, let's get it moving. Don't forget to hammer the Colt rep. while you're at it.

My neighbors are getting tired of me standing on my porch calling 'here horsey...here little horsey...' whilst gazing forlornly northwards...

i gather that battery has now run out of juice

Inbound....10 M4s (all spoken for), 10-20 more in 3 weeks(?), I expect pistolas any day, they treat me good

Maybe I should do a group buy for THR exiles...

hso · September 8, 2004, 02:55 PM

Odd that I never buy anything at "home" and then spend a little bit of time over at FalFiles and end up with a refurb Fal kit on the way and Aimpoint clone!

Now I've got to get that receiver and screw the thing together and then poke some holes in paper... Jeez THR better come up soon or I'll be broke pawing through new candy stores.

Yep, Derek's home is in Northern Florida, IIRC..

That wasn't me talkin'.. honest! It was the withdrawls. My "rods 'n cones" (as Kramer would say) start to get all outa' whack when I haven't had my daily THR fix..

Winston Smith · September 8, 2004, 06:17 PM

Man, THR is pretty much the only site I visit regularly on the web, and the source for a lot of my other surfing ideas...

Arghhhh....

**tyme** · September 8, 2004, 07:26 PM

I'd imagine the status is: as soon as power is back on, THR will be back up.

Update on THR - 09/08/04, ~9:45 pm

spoke the Zeanah's tonight, they say that they are alright. and that they and their whole neighborhood is out of power because a power pole snapped into mulitple pieces. they managed to talk to someone today who said it may be as late as monday before power might be restored.

(my comments)
there are still large sections of the city without power, due to downed lines, trees, and poles, and the power company say's they are working as fast as they can to restore power. there is no telling when power may be restored to that area, so just keep checking.

Kingson · September 8, 2004, 09:28 PM

So how many people are going to be curled up a ball talking to themselfs because THR will be down for that long? It's nice to see so many familer people over here. It's like taking a vacation and seeing all of your friends around you. It's hard to get used to a new place.....well it's time for bed because I can't think very well right now... It's good to see all of you and nice to meet all the people from TFL.

jamz · September 8, 2004, 09:32 PM

Well, I've been visiting TFL for the past few days to get my gunnie fix on, and I must say, it took me a LONG DAMN TIME to find y'all here .

I'm just not that bright, ya see....

P95Carry · September 8, 2004, 09:34 PM
