Someone, somewhere will surely blame the upcoming Q1 GDP miss on what just happened in New Orleans.

Before and after:

The Paul Harvey was a nice reprieve until Dodge ruined it.

Dodge aka FIAT. Yeah pappy worked hard on the farm all his life to enrich Obam-MAO, the uAW and FIAT.

Real-time representation of the 47%'s contribution to the country.

Don't worry though, Obama will address this injustice by smashing the remaining 53% of working lights and then forcing the power companies to pay for the reconstruction. More jobs, higher GDP and less inequality!

Go team!

PVC Gun Burial Tube. Holds 3 long rifles Ak47, SKS, AR15 plus ammo and gold & silver. Check it out here.

Not you again .... was that $30 of PVC for $300 ? Forget the airvalve and glue the thing shut .... you only gonna dig it up once ! If you plan on reusing .... grease the threads with vaseline (or boat trailer wheel bearing grease) and throw a bag of rice in .... food and moisture control ? Buy ammo and silver with the $270 you save ! Furthermore .... I don't think those three rifles would fit .... at the same time .... in a 6" diameter tube (wouldn't black sewer pipe be more discrete and even cheaper) .... picture please ? PS: It looks like they would fit .... I noticed you dropped the price from $319 to $315 !

Mon, 02/04/2013 - 09:08 | 3212866 Ralph Spoilsport

Monedas, this guy must have bought a metric shitload of PVC pipe hoping to cash in on Sandy Hook Elementary. He has sold exactly none of these so far:

Hi Ralph ! I guess I'm being the spoilsport today .... as a renaissance libertarian (redundancy) .... I get no joy .... shitting on another guy's parade .... but, this is an insult to ZH gene pool ? PS: Looks like this guy is a legit, good Ebay vendor ! I would go to Home Depot and buy some PVC tube, PVC cement and end caps .... if I ever had to saw it open .... I could close it with a coupling and some more PVC cement !

Mon, 02/04/2013 - 09:33 | 3212905 Ralph Spoilsport

This guy joined ZH 2 weeks and 4 days ago and has been pumping these PVC pipe ripoffs in almost all of his comments.

http://www.zerohedge.com/search/user_comments?name=Kingkongballs827

Posters that use ZH to hawk their wares are generally frowned on, at least that's my impression. Being a spoilsport has been approved on this end. Be well and keep being funny.

what they [the hidden persuaders; men or devils?] were telling us in the Coke commercial is: the image of the beast (giant bottle of coke in the desert) everyone including the whores are rushing to, isn;'t the final beast, but only a sign pointing to him. He [that] is [50 miles away] coming.
