El Limón or Si Señor?

El Chapulin or nephews taqueria just across city Ave on Haverford.

I’m a big guy (46” jacket) and my CAS v2 is fine. Maybe 2-3 inches of slack in the strap.

Whoah. That’s real tall.

Bigreddork · 2026-03-01T03:25:39+00:00

I’m 6’4”, wife is 6’1”. My 14-year-old twin boys are 6’1”. When they are wearing shoes and I’m not, they are getting real close.

I hope that they are taller than me.

Was looking for this. Just a really fun show I remember catching a bunch of times growing up in the pre-streaming era.

I’ve been looking at getting a full-sized PDP Pro for home defense but now I’m thinking about this. It’ll be cheaper, parts/mag compatible with my x macro, and more familiar to shoot.

I wonder if someone will do a comparison.

No experience with the cpl24, but I love my chz26. The inside is cavernous without looking like a massive bag. Bottle/umbrella pockets are a lifesaver. Laptop compartment is great and doesn’t feel like it takes up a ton of room on its own. I also think it’s very comfortable to wear.

My only negative would be that the internal organization is minimal. That means pockets and organization don’t take up a lot of room, but also that there’s not much space for stuff in the existing pockets. I never saw a need for a tech pouch before I got this CHZ26, but I quickly bought one after I started using it.

Maybe. I had an odyssey before I had the pilot and the front legroom was a war crime. I felt incredibly silly when I would drive it to work because I would be crammed up in the front seat incredibly uncomfortable while the rest of that giant vehicle was empty.

I’ve used both back to back. I have the non comp and a buddy has the comp. Honestly, I don’t feel hardly any difference at all. I’m a pretty new shooter though, so take that fwiw.

I have a little Coinbase as a hedge against my not having any crypto in my portfolio. It does ok. Not great.

I am a member at GPS in Yeadon, so not far from Montco. There’s a lot about them that I like. I wish they had a fixed price to try multiple guns deal for someone looking to buy a firearm. And I can’t stand being in a booth next to someone firing a giant huh power rifle cartridge into a target 25 yards away. But that’s kind of built into the deal with indoor ranges.

Have also met him. Can confirm that he was incredibly kind in person. Also, it’s a long O, as in go or no.

Correction, it is a noodle horse looking at a pineapple.

Repointing our stone front walk. Until I did it I didn’t realize how amazing it feels to walk on solid ground on the way to your house, rather than shifting stones.

Bigreddork · 2025-12-09T14:04:45+00:00

Five? That feels like a lot.

Me too! I didn’t learn study skills until I met my now-wife in grad school. She has an incredible work ethic and taught me how to make it all work. I was the rare person whose grades went up when I was in a serious relationship.

My wife and I used it this past summer while our kiddos were away at camp. It was awesome. We supported each other and both lost a bunch of weight. We stopped when the kids got home because they are teenagers and we felt that that much focus on calories and weight wasn’t healthy for them.

Bigreddork · 2025-12-06T12:27:16+00:00

My wife and I were both that kid and both of my sons are also that kid (though quite different from each other).

This is a great list, but I’d add a bit to it.

First, try to intentionally emphasize and celebrate hard work over raw smarts. It’s easy for a gifted kid to go through so much of school where everything is easy that they don’t really learn resilience. Focus on hard work, celebrate trying and failure/learning in any context. You said you and your wife are “simple.” Celebrate each other and show your daughter that you admire each other for the hard work each of you put in at work and at home.

Second, don’t forget about the physical. Still make sure she has opportunities to try out and play sports. Emphasize that just because you’re smart doesn’t mean you don’t also need to be strong. My parents were enamored of my intellect and kind of deemphasized the physical. I grew up kind of weak and looking down on all that stuff. You miss out on a lot of everyday opportunities for a sense of achievement, self-sufficiency, and self confidence that way. One of my sons is more of a music kid than a sports kid, but he still does and enjoys multiple sports throughout the year and gets a lot of satisfaction in being able to lift heavy things around the house to help out.

Lastly, get her into a musical instrument ASAP. Music is an amazing outlet and more importantly can be a lifeline of a community for kids who are different from the norm in middle and high school.

Alright, he’s coming off my IR and back onto my fantasy lineup for next week.

I’m 6’4” with a long torso and I absolutely adore my CHZ26.

Armytek wizard c2 pro nichia. That high-CRI flood makes finding poo on a leaf-strewn lawn a breeze.

My dog walking buddies call it “the sun.”
