    Hey buddy

    Long time no see. Guess you don't come here anymore though.

    No, I haven't taken any action on moving yet. Looking at homes is something I have to start doing, though depression & anxiety get in the way.

    Couldn't you get yourself a Desert Eagle in Canada? Their gun laws worry about handguns being too easy to conceal. So they ban certain tiny barrels & barrels under 4.2", so this would seem to be plenty big to meet Canadian gun laws.

    Now you just need a pile of Canadian dollars.:)

    Here's the absolute cheapest .50 AE ammo in the US (before shipping) and it's a reload which means they cleaned a fired case, put in a new primer, filled it with powder and put in a new bullet. It's still $1 per shot. https://www.laxammo.com/ammunition/handgun-reloads/lax-ammunition-reloads-50-ae-300-gr-jhp-50-rds/22-1493

    You seem like a man who enjoys some bling, so here it is in gold:http://www.tombstonetactical.com/catalog/magnum-research/desert-eagle-pistol-50-ae-6in-gold/

    Both impractical & silly looking. I've seen shows where bad guys carry them -- in gold. Is a 1911 just too practical and ascetically pleasing, not to mention 2 f****ing pounds lighter! The bad guy shoves his Desert Eagle in the face of the good guy. Why? Would a 50AE make them any more dead than a .45ACP, a man stopper proven by the US military over 75 years?

    I'm not going to buy a gun based on a video game. The only real use for a .50 Desert Eagle is handgun hunting. Dave lives in Iowa where they only allow shotguns & handguns for deer hunting. The fear is that a rifle bullet could go too far and accidentally hit a farmhouse 2 miles away, something that realistically could happen. If I wanted to hunt Bambi (or other critters) the vast bulk of WI allows the use of a rifle, which can be aimed much more accurately.

    Shotgun slugs and hand gun bullets are VERY HEAVY & slow in comparison to a rifle round like a .30-06. The rifle round is much lighter and something like 3,000 ft per second. Even the fastest handgun can't even come close, and the fastest is a Smith & Wesson 460 (built on the same X-frame as their silly .50 caliber).

    What makes you think I'd want a .50 caliber Desert Eagle? It's obscenely expensive to fire, unless you're a handloader. And it's only real use is for handgun hunting. I've never hunted and don't plan to start. I'll buy my meat at the grocery store.

    Now if I wanted to just try one out I could as Fletcher Ams has added a .50 Desert Eagle to their rental collection. I'm sure most folks are just curious and want to try it out, but very few would seriously be interested in buying such a gun.

    I like the Pagani Huayra, 1970 Porsche 911, the 2015 Porsche 918, Mini Cooper S is a car I've driven before and would love to realistically own someday. I also love the 1995 Ferrari 412 T2. The sound this car makes at 0:45 seconds in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SoZiTxdQyw&app=desktop

    god damn

    I love the Audi S1 and watching old group B rally racing too or rally racing in general.

    I'm between 4000-5000 calories a day right now. Do you think it could just be the massive amount of calories we eat? You eat healthier than I do from what I've seen on here, but I eat mostly healthy. Maybe it's excess nutrients and such? Excess glucose was another possibility I was considering. Not necessarily just sugar, but I think pretty much all carbohydrates are broken down into glucose and from what I understand excess proteins are converted to glucose as well. High glucose causes frequent urination and also increased thirst, which would make that even worse. That would be mimicking diabetic symptoms. Do you think switching to one of those ketosis diets would help? I think every gram of carbohydrate you consume causes you to hold like 4 grams of water, so a high fat, low carb diet with protein just right for building muscle would seem to cause a minimum of holding water and excess glucose that must be expelled. Do you think any of this is within the realm of possibility?

    I just started the mobility exercises, too. I bought a foam roller at Walmart last week, but couldn't find a lacrosse ball anywhere. Do sumo deadlifts make you insanely sore?

    I think it pretty much started when I started eating healthy, drinking plenty of water and exercising. I think it's got to be related to that. I've browsed the bodybuilding forums on this topic (I know, not the best source of information, but it's people with similar eating and drinking habits and activity levels) and it seems to be very common, even 5+ times a night. Some of those guys have been tested for diabetes and prostate problems and everything. I think I may just get checked for those two soon just to eliminate them. Administering simple tests that I specify and giving me the results should be within my doctor's ability level.
