depending on what your looking for, here are some Magnums i found a great deal on, $33. i am looking at the Magnums because i have always wore Hitec boots and of course they make the Magnums. they some good reviews too. these are "seconds or blemished" but for the $.....if they look that bad i will wear them around the house.

well i got a call today for an interview at Albemarle CI. i was kinda surprised.

when i went for testing, i asked the lady over seeing the tests "is it possible that i could get a interview with more than one facility?" she said "no, once you get a call from one facility, you won't get calls from any other facility".

of course when someone else asked if NC DOC had alot of turn over, she kinda laughed and said "no, we don't have much turnover at all , except for central in Raleigh".


i knew she was full of crap!

Yea, I think I'm going with the 511's. Found a site that offers them for $89 with 6 pairs of free socks and free shipping. Cant really beat that.
