I used to work for the Federal Air Marshal Service & with the FBI.

Glock 19 or Sig Sauer P229 (.357 or 9mm). P229 chambered in .357 is the Air Marshal load and they have the highest qual standard in the Federal Service.

Do your homework. Low maintenance is best .40 & .45 can have jamming problems. +P can wear out the barrel prematurely.

FYI the FBI just went back to .9mm Glock 19s after years at .40.

Hollow points mean business! I only buy Federal Premium.

I recommend the Glock 19. Gen 4 is fine, maybe cheaper than the new gen. Only significant difference is the ambidextrous magazine release. Significant only if you're a lefty.

Probably will get in trouble for posting. Msg me for future replies.

I'm just an old guy who likes to play Bloodborne 20 hours a week and lurks here otherwise.......

I doubt it. Itll get marked for offensive and youll likely get warned.

so why is it offensive to post an ascii muhammed, but it's not offensive to make jokes about Jesus?


I'm not a Muslim, but Islam considers the depiction of Muhammad a sin/forbidden. Whether the mods would enforce any "offense" of depicting Muhammad is something the first person to do so will find out.

Former Ivy league grad student & Ivy Summer program professor here. "Open Book" sections are usually mentioned specifically in lecture. It tests those who did the reading and those who attended lectures.

I taught American Foreign Policy and War & Diplomacy. I used to leave the room periodically to piss or smoke a cigar. Psychological shit I learned from MY professors.

If you did the work you'd pass. If not....well I had bad news for you.

They are the toughest & students need to be challenged in their major, not necessarily in general education classes.

I had Bell's Palsy about 6 years ago. I caught it about 6 hours after I woke up. I dribbled orange juice trying to drink it and my co-workers noticed the right side of my face wasn't moving.

Docs gave me steroids & an antibiotic. It lasted about 10 days and I had full recovery of facial movement.

Doctors say they have no real idea what causes it. It could be a pinched nerve in the face (steroids help this) or some kind of ear infection (antibiotics).

You feel like everyone is staring at your face when you have it. They probably are.

Anyway get well soon.

One last thing: Back when the projectionist union was still active you didn't DARE enter the projection booth without a union member present. Something about liability for equipment, tuning etc. One time management did that (went into the booth without a projectionist present) somewhere in Los Angeles and about 1/4 of the projectionists walked out across town. They threatened to all call in sick on a Friday & Saturday and damned near shut this town down for the weekend!

Thanks @SableWolfAngel & @Flintlock_Staff

I think I've exhausted all my questions. Doesn't sound like things have changed too much. I hope you enjoy working at the theater as much as I did. I still have 3 or 4 friends from those days.

Oh yeah? What kinds of things did you say about girls?

Yeah, we do midnight shows, but it's for employees only and it's of the new movies we got that week. So we watch it the Wednesday before its premier Friday. So I got to see It before all our patrons that came out in droves. Pretty cool, huh?

Good morning, CE!


I hope you enjoy working at the theater. I know I did. I was just a kid, 17 or so and there were older guys in their 20s. After the last showing and customers left they'd slip in beers and we'd talk about girls (all bullshit). We'd talk til 2-3 am when the cleaning crew showed up.

Every time I go to the theater it takes me back.

Do they still do midnight showings? The theater I worked at would have them Halloween (Either the movie HALLOWEEN or ROCKY HORROR MOVIE) and other times during the year. This was the '80s. Yeah, I'm old.

Well like I said this was the '80s and the theater was in a mall. They still had projectionists then too which I think they got rid of in the '90s after a union strike. The projectionists were old guys that changed the movie reels and smoked cigarettes in the projector room. After customers left, sometimes one of them would pull out a screen and run 8mm porno reels from the '70s for us (if there were no women around).

Plus the theater was in a mall as I said so there were always girls (and women) around. Not that any of us knew what to do with them at the time. BUT add in the beers, and the porn and all kinds of bullshit was being said about "How I'd take so & so out" or "How me & whatsername almost hooked up" , etc. . This was all in the evenings after the last show. For me it was only during the summer because I was still in high school.

Do theaters still have projectionists or is it all automated? I think I know the answer already but......

It's cool, yes. We did that too. Always mid-week premier for employees.

How old are the hot dogs? (That's not code for anything)


We cook the fresh each day, but if no one buys them they sit on the cooker for awhile or sit in the warmer once they've been packaged up.

That's why I always go to the matinee because I feel like I'm getting the 1st batch of popcorn & hot dogs.

Correct. You gotta buy our food.

that's fuckin lame



I worked in a theater for my 1st job many years ago. If the business model is still the same, the theater makes all its profit from the concessions. Ticket price goes to the movie studio, maintenance, insurance for customers etc.

So yes, the theater is going to do everything they can to make sure you hit the concession counter.
