I bought some from walmart on clearance. I rent as well but we were allowed to put up curtain rods by our landlord. Ours are tan or red (depending on the room) and they work well. Just an FYI all curtains come one panel to a package nowadays. You can sometimes find cheap curtains in 2 packs but they won't be blackout ones. I think we paid $9 each and they are normally $15 each at walmart, BBB has em too but I think they were more expensive unless you have a coupon.

I'm Just outside Chicago in Berwyn.

I'll try to get some pic up soon. As for the other ideas, Why not do all of them? I currently paintball, airsoft, nerf, and foam sword fight. My paint pistol can even double as a less than lethal gun if I get the rounds for it.

Thanks that's some good info there. I've only made 2 pitchers of tea with my new "toy" and the second batch didn't work right cold brewing. Luckily I got enough to make a second batch and will try the hot method next time for sure. I don't have an issue absorbing iron so I'm sure a few glasses of black tea in a week will probably not be that big of an issue either. In the mean time, I've had to push back the Official start of my diet due to a particularly screwed up week next week.

NICE! I'm also modding a maverick for the wife's protection. Spring mod, Air restricter removal and full paint job. My bro in law has a modded his stampede for faster fire and has the 36 round clips, never a fair fight. I'm looking into the all metal parts for my recon as well.

I am making an ironman costume so i'll have that done hopefully by MK4:playful: It will take about a year or so to finish, realistically close to 2 or 3 with all the moving parts planned. By then I hope to be thinner so the costume looks right.

Man I miss gardening. I've had success with tomatoes and peppers in large pots. When I've had the space I've grown just about every veggie imaginable. I grew up in a small town surrounded by corn and soybeans. Our current place has nowhere I can grow anything safely.

Borderlands. I always have to help the little robots. Always...

I have to agree with firefly... (I AM a leaf on the wind...) But BSG wins this one. I think the ships on BSG would win in a fight hands down.

Here's what I've tried at least once. Some have been done more than others: Horseback rideing(including jumping) Golf Disc Golf Archery (target, 3d, medieval, and combat) fencing Foam Sword Fighting (Belegarth, Nero, SCA) football baseball basketball ultimate frisbee horseshoes tetherball tennis running(sprints and hurdles) long jumping discus rock climing Hikeing Kayaking Canoeing Fishing soccer Bikeing I'm sure there's way more as well....

Thanks all! @Church, I agree the avengers movie was good, however I can relate to where Tony Stark was in Ironman 2. As far as bulding the MK2, I'm starting the Paleo Diet next week and working out 3 days a week. I curently walk about 1 mile to work from the train station and 1 mile home so I have some exercise every day. For the energy, I want to not feel like I need a nap after work. My job entails siitting and watching cameras (and playing games or videos;) ) so I don't have a physical job to make me as tired as I feel. @plantern, I've switched from sodas to iced teas and that has helped a little. My wife bought me an tea infusing pitcher which works well. I just made my second pitcher last night. That being said, I do like socks, there's nothing like a brand new pair of socks... @Pat G, Yea the Avengers Movie makes 7 suits. With Ironman 3 coming out in a year it'll add at least 2 more to the mix. I've got some catching up to do. Who knows, this may become a 12 suit program

Hello all! I happened to find this site while looking up the paleo diet. I've been lurking for a couple of weeks now and decided to join up. My wife an I have decided to attempt the Paleo diet starting next week. As for me, I'm 30 years old, and I weigh in at 236lbs. My doctor has been buggin me about my weight and working out has only dropped my weight by about a pound or two. I work as a security officer in downtown Chicago il. I love all kinds of outdoor activities including bikeing, hikeing, disc golf, archery,fishing(hence the first part of my name), and offroading. I love working on my Jeep (hence the last part of my name). I've always been a nerd and a gamer. I was the head of a gaming club when I was in school (that was a long time ago...) and I still play games whenever I can. As for where I am, Considering the title of this thread, I'll keep myself within the various Ironman suits. Currently I'm at the MK1 stage, Oversized, low energy, and only good for short bursts of activity before crashing into the desert. My goal is to get to the next suit which is the MK2. I invision it as being 30lbs lighter and have more energy. Also it will be gold with hot rod red a few final details: Favorite movie: Ironman 2 Favorite TV show: Serenity & Big Bang Theory Favorite board game: Risk Favorite video game: Rockband, forza 3, and rapala bass fishing Favorite book: Terry Brooks Sword of Shenara series. Favorite Possesion: 89 Jeep Cherokee Otherwise that's me. Let me know if there is anything else you'd like to know.
