  1. I have a Pepsi dial Seiko diver on a jubilee bracelet that rocks. Model SKX009. no better value.
  2. Not to be pedantic, but tritium is what hydrogen with 1 proton and 2 neutrons is called. It is tritium whether it is in pure (T-T), or heterogeneous (T-x) form. It is gaseous when part of a gaseous molecule, and solid or liquid when parts of molecules in those phases. Since it has identical properties with standard, single-nucleon, hydrogen; it can be substituted in a molecule almost anywhere hydrogen can. I used to use tritiated compounds to track drug distribution in animals it works great for that too.
  3. +1 Life is too short to leave a smelly rep strap on your nice, new "Breitling" BoB straps are an excellent value.
  4. I'd have to be psychic to tell that one from the gen. Right on!
  5. Watch out for the rebel leader, Sam Boga!
  6. Wasn't that in "The Gods Must Be Crazy"?
  7. +1 I'm thinking of getting one of these myself.
  8. "Nicolas Hayek, president of the world's leading watchmaker, Swatch Group, remarked at the time: "It's like a bunch of cardinals getting together and robbing the Vatican bank."" But that DID happen!
  9. As an ex-infantryman, there are two reasons that leap to my mind: 1) AK-series weapons were designed to be made by stamping rather than machining (we all know about that here). Therefore they can be made very cheaply. 2) AK-series weapons can fire almost regardless of how clean they are. This is very important in the field. That said, I'd absolutely choose the M16A2 over an AK-series rifle. It's a more accurate weapon, and the ammo is lighter. But I think I'd rather have a 7.62mm M14 over either one because of the greater range, stopping power, and that I'm more of a "one shot at a time" guy.
  10. Even if he fails to get money from suing the producers, he will get large residuals as long as that show is played.
  11. Nothing beats a Zippo if you're trying to torch a Vietnamese village.
  12. My favorite Christmas song is Christmas in Las Vegas by Richard Cheese: Christmas in Las Vegas Decorate your tree with chips Let's roll a yo beneath the mistletoe While that angel strips Rudolph sold the sled, now he's betting on red In a casino made out of gingerbread Christmas in Las Vegas It's a trip! The wise men are rolling sevens The elves are doubling down Light a candle, and pull the handle I love that jingling sound Every showgirl and boy ride in a sleigh of joy Pulled by eight tiny tigers eating Siegfried & Roy Christmas in Las Vegas What a town! Santa brought me two aces I wonder if I should split? Hey waitress, bring me a drink, while I think What would Jesus hit? The strip lights are all twinkling There's no room at the inn But because 'tis the season They'll comp a suite for Mary at the Wynn! Christmas in Las Vegas It's Bethlehem with Bling! Let's hope the dealer brings four newborn kings 'Cause my baby needs a brand new pair of five golden rings Christmas in Las Vegas really swings! Cha cha cha ching I said Christmas in Las Vegas really swings!
  13. The Ebel Panda is really nice. I wear it for my dress watch ever since I got it. Good factory AR too.
  14. In addition to the G-shock being tough, it's good to have at least one radio-controlled watch by which to set one's mechanicals.
  15. 42mm = UPito ?? And Daniel Craig wore the 45.5mm
  16. "Please Disperse. There is nothing to see here."
  17. You can go with a Gen: http://www.amazon.co...5/dp/B000KFWM4W
  18. I have one on SS. They're automatic. Do you want it? I'm open to offers.
  19. I must be an outlier, but I would rate OHMSS higher in quality than many people. I like that he has to do some research and go undercover. Much of the time in other films, he just waltzes all over the place using his real name. BTW, in the book he removes his Rolex from his wrist and puts it around his hand for use as brass knuckles.
