Ron Paul Special (with a sweet side of Rachel Maddow)

Tyranid Options

PS- once we have some kits on hand we plan on making most if not all of the various unusual army entries as conversions. They will be included on the spreadsheet.

Hive Mind- reminder

Just a reminder that I’m still running the Hive Mind special.

This coming Monday is the first day that I can put the new models on order.

Danish Cars

I noticed on your blog, one of your friends commented on my email to you. I respect his opinion completely and I am in no way trying to turn your blog into a political discussion site – I just have to give you my two cents 🙂

He is absolutely right, motorcycles and cars are ridiculously expensive in Denmark – especially the ones polluting the most, the least fuel efficient ones, and the heaviest ones. This differentiated tax system favors specific vehicles, inciting a certain way of spending your money. As far as I know we use the same model for tobacco, alcohol, and extremely unhealthy junk-food. I know this way of thinking physically hurts a true capitalist, but I would like to point out, that any regulation and redistribution is made by the elected politicians, by the majority of the people (and, I would hope, for the good of the people).

Now you really got me thinking mentioning that our country was roughly the size of Alabama. You see, In Europe we have our own “federal government” – The European Union. Ever since I turned 18 and got my right to vote I have been actively fighting (in a peaceful democratic way) the expanding power of the central commission, as it is called. They are really gaining legislative power on all aspects of our society (most absurd example: Last year they deemed it necessary to legislate on the proper size and form of a cucumber!). I can’t imagine how irate I would be if the EU gained as much power as your federal government has – and only in the last weeks am I beginning to see the obvious resemblance.

Returning to the first issue, and why I am quite fond of our local system: Though some things may be overly expensive or hard to get, I still have the personal freedom (on top of the complete social security/safety). The most lousy job I can find in this country still earns me ~25$/ pr. hour without breaking a sweat. I am an uneducated inexperienced youth spending most of my time on my education – and I can still afford a beautiful army from BTP. I bet you in 4/5 years I could have that Danish custom motor cycle in my garrage 🙂

Again, I am sorry if I am wasting your time. Thank you for reading, anyways 🙂

Thunderwolf Battle Brothers

Here’s the only answer we could come up with for Thunderwolf Cavalry.

Glad to make more.

Cards, Codes and Cash

Please use cash.

When you do, you take money out of the coffers of the banks and simultaneously strengthen the REAL economy.

I urge all my clients to pay me with check, money order, cash or direct transfer (more on this later). When you pay Blue Table Painting $100 with Paypal or Credit card I have to pay $3.25 to the banks. That comes straight out of our family’s budget. Wouldn’t you much rather see me and my workers get that money?

Don’t get me wrong! I’m glad to process by Paypal and Credit Card. There is something to be said for the convenience. Above all, I want the client to be accomodated!

When sent in a hard envelope with Delivery Confirmation it’s reliable. I’ve never once, not even once in six years, had a check go missing in the mail. The bank on the other hand has found ten ways to get their hands on the loot. Banks make your money NOT safe.

My concern here is not just money (ie that I make less if the Banks get their mitts on the money) but that I don’t want to see my fellowman further indebted (bank profits create more debt ultimately).

Read more here.

I’ve started paying with cash. I carry it in my wallet. I don’t use my debit card except when absolutely necessary. I’d rather the merchant get that money.

“You cannot spend your way out of a recession.

You cannot regulate the economy into oblivion and expect it to function.

You cannot tax people and businesses to the point of near slavery and expect them to keep producing.

You cannot create an abundance of money out of thin air without making all that paper worthless.

The government cannot make up for rising unemployment by just hiring all the out of work people to be bureaucrats or send them unemployment checks forever.

You cannot live beyond your means indefinitely.

The economy must actually produce something others are willing to buy. Government growth is the opposite of all these things. “

— Ron Paul

Underbrush Nids

Renn is working on a Tyranid army. He’s got a few prototypes ready.

I look forward to whomping on them with my new 40K army… that I’m going to make in a few months.

Doom Flayer Conversion

See if you can figure out what parts we used.
