Not sure. Didn't get it yet. It's being shipped. It's not the 1998 Reissue, it's a Bong Load.

For my day to day headphones I take with me in public, I obviously don't want a really expensive set or something huge and bulky, but I want good sound quality.

So, I picked up a pair of Sennheiser 202 HD's: http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HD-202 ... pd_sim_e_1

Currently burning them in overnight with MHTRTC on repeat, blasted from a CD player.
Okay...now...wait for fog machine.

-Me bought me some weed called "Moby". It did not make me bald or change the way I make music. It did not make me want to eat vendetta-holding-captains or take long journeys through the ocean. It just made me sit on my lazy ass and laugh.

I WAS going to post that I've just bought the new Mark Lanegan LP, but it feels kind of redundant after seeing this...

The whole idea of gun ownership will forever be beyond me....

Did you get it out of appreciation of it as a weapon or the history of it or some other reason? I'm genuinely interested btw. It was used during WW2 on the Eastern front right?

For me? I love guns. Grew up around them. And it's my right to bare arms. I am a careful smart gun owner. I register all my weapons and treat them with respect as well as preach safety. I am politically an Indipendant who just happens to enjoy shooting them. Also, home protection is key in these times. A local woman here had 2 men break in to her home with 10" Hunting knives. She was alone with her baby. She called 911 and told them that she was going to shoot them if they broke in. The operator said do what you need to do to defend your self. In Ohio if anyone unwelcome breaks into your home and you feel that your life threatened? You are aloud to shoot. If you're stupid enough to enter my home with an intention to kill rape or hurt my Wife or Children or me? You better think twice cause I'm going to protect my family. Now, that young women shot that piece of shit with a double Barral 12 guage and killed him. She was within her rights. Now what if she didn't have a gun? The story might have ended differently. "Mother and baby were brutitly raped and murdered by repeat offender." But thankfully she had her freedom to exercise her second amendment.

Ok, just so we're clear here. I totally respect gun ownership and I am thinking of acquiring one myself in due course. However, we do all see the irony of being free to bear arms, yet at the same time having to register as a gun owner in a supposedly free country, right?

I don't at all. I mean, in a very strict sense it does go against the base idea, however it works to keep assholes who should not own guns from acquiring them as easily.


Reminds me, I need to go and register. Been meaning to pick up a handgun of some sort since I'm going to be moving to a pretty shady area of Phoenix in a week or two and I really don't feel like getting killed.

You don't have to register in Ohio and a lot of other states. For example, I could sell you one of my guns and you don't have to report it or register it in your name. But! If you want to buy from a licensed dealer such as Bass Pro or Cabela's then you do have to register. Registering is so that licensed dealers don't sell to Felons and criminals or people with a history of mental illness.
