Hello, I am very new - but this might help. I think other people will reply, too. -----------

You two are funny!

Awesome insights. Good thing I read these posts... will save me from making more mistakes than usual.

Hey G! I'll have to research British military ranks. I think I'll only make trouble for higher ranking officers. That is my way of having fun. I'll tell them Vader is my grandmother's neighbor and they don't want to risk a choking.

Some people view life in black and white. Some in shades of grey. I think that's part of the problem. I'm more a "shades of grey person" so I disagree with the extreme views you hold. If you really can't find anyone to buy the armor - send me a pm and we can make a deal. I know - you don't want to do that... but I still need another set and it's one way to deal with your issues.

Hey Justice, I must be one of the six. Maybe the others in our little group will chime in. AP received my initial downpayment Oct 16th. Just to bug him because I couldn't contain my excitement, I sent an email right before Christmas, and he replied the next day. [i think] I understand the pressure from spouses! haaa haaa.... My husband just shakes his head at me. It is alot of $ to be spending. [Thankfully, my hubby's 1st 2 wives trained him VERY WELL.] I am fully confident that all 6 of us will get our awesome armor as soon as AP + friend can manage it. Yah - I think US Customs has stepped up the security. (I'm glad, actually!) I hope this experience hasn't ruined all the fun that this should be for you and your family. I'm sending good thoughts your way and to up to Canada. I don't know what to say about you not getting your refund. That HAS to be frustrating. However this turns out, I sincerely hope you get resolution that you and your family are ok with. I'll let you know as soon as I get my armor. Shall we make a bet on who gets theirs first? Maybe it's not a good time for jokes.. just trying to ease your worries! Take care, guy! Jenny

Oh, I was going to try my assembly with my feet. Guess I need to re-think my plan? hummmmm......

Having you TK number inside the helmet is very cool!

Congratulations, Tom! Very awesome!!!!

Yipee!!! Hooray!!! Way to go!!!! It is exciting stuff! It will be like Christmas all over again.

Congratulations! Looks awesome

My cats are hiding now.

OWWWWWE! Was there a curse word or two after that?!!!!!

Merry Christmas!!!! Hoping for snow in Indiana!!!

I plan on getting my hubby an RT-MOD, too. He's 6'3" 220 lbs. When I emailed RT-Mod, he was so nice and helpful!

That was funny .... we like it!!!! Anymore Sithmas songs?!?!?!?

Daniel, You did an awesome job - both the weight loss goal and the armor!

Tanner, Hope your swelling / pain from the wisdom teeth gets better! Sounds like things are getting better. Hang in there. Hi Tiffany! I like the carrot-stick-diet. I'm going to peel some today! haaa haaa!!! Thanks for the good info on weight. We got lucky, and 1 of my hubby's friends didnt want her bmi scale anymore. Not sure it's all the way accurate, but it is probably close. My hubby has the P90X.... I've not tried it. I need to be brave and try!!! I did shovel the whole driveway this morning, though. That HAD to have burned off some fat.

Hello TK2392! I know this was quite awhile ago, but are there certain "UV blocker polymer nano particulate's" that you would recommend? Should I worry about my AP armor yellowing from UV rays? [i tend to worry over lots of stuff... mostly useless worrying, but now I'm rambling...!] Also, I read somewhere that the brow rubber might bleed color onto the bucket. Or, did I get confused on that? Any info would be appreciated. Thank you, Jenny

Hope you are ok, Tanner. Hope everybody is surviving all the holiday food. I have plateaued at 142, and goal weight is 125. I'm 5'4", so vertically challenged. I HOPE to get my AP kit soon. I think it will be another month. It would be nice to be closer to my goal weight when fitting my armor. I'm combining better eating with exercise. I jog (really darn slooow), lift some free weights, but mainly have to watch what I eat. I know I have to stop the beer (miller lite!) and the cookies/cakes. I like the post about NOT FEELING GUILTY!!! I agree! Everyday is a new day, don't put so much pressure on yourself that you don't even want to start. Give yourself a break. Find MORE things that you like about yourself than dis-like. Have way more positive thoughts than negative. Have smaller goals, and concentrate on those. They will eventually add up. Find a way to enjoy the exercise, or at least reward yourself with positive thoughts/attitudes after you've completed your workout. There are so many times I drag myself to the gym and hate being there the whole time - BUT I feel good that I at least went. Right now I am hiding upstairs while my teenager and his bud are eating a meat lovers pizza. ARRRGH! haaa haaaa.... I had a salad and am not feeling hungry.. but I shore could eat 3 pieces right now! So, for everybody - YOU CAN DEEEEW EHT!!!!!

Hey Cornelis, Have you received your AP armor yet? I ordered mine 2 months ago today (well, that's when my money made it up north.) I know it's their busy season.... but I'm still dying to know WHEN I'll get it. Just curious. Hope you already have it and are deep into the joys of your build!
