Is Paintball More Awesome Than Playing Video Games?

By Jerry Manuel


What a fantastic sport paintball is. There are tons of reasons why I like to play it as much as I can, but this article will give you only a few of them. As I am writing this I can't wait to play paintball again. Here I will tell you why I think paintball is better than watching movies.

Like to watch movies? Like to play video games? If you do, you probably know that excited, thrilling feeling you get when you are really involved in the video game or the video you are watching.

While you are trying to eliminate other players by hitting them with a paintball, you aren't trying to kill them like in war. It is a friendly competition sport and the idea is comparable to games like dodge ball, or laser tag, except instead of trying to hit opponents with a ball or laser, you are trying to tag them with a paintball.

It's awesome to watch a movie with a realistic sound system and high definition TV, or play a video game with realistic graphics and feel like you are actually in the video game, but nothing will ever replace the realism of real life experiences. I would much rather experience the action found in a paintball game in real life, then to watch a movie or play a "realistic" video game.

Take away the violence, killing, and real guns in movies and video games and replace it with a paintball gun with paintballs and you get a real experience that is better than a movie.

If you want to simulate war, paintball has scenario games where hundreds to thousands of paintball players get together and pretend like they are in war, except in this simulated war, no one dies.

While I do like to watch movies and play video games, the real life thrill and excitement I experience in paintball is much more appealing to me than sitting in a chair watching a movie, or exercising my thumbs playing a video game.

Understanding Car Rental Policies

By Allan Subandos


A lot of stories has been spread over word of mouth about rent a car business. Not all of these passed on tales are true and it takes taking a closer look to take one as a fact. The common denominator in all of these shops is that they have policies that they impose to any customer. This is to better manage the business without losing the best interests of both parties.

Now, over the years, changes in a positive way took over in this industry. One of these is that it took convenience to a higher level by rendering services via the Internet. Just about anyone who is interested of their service can get information about car rental matters from the world wide web.

Knowing the Basic Rental Requirements

As a customer, what do you need to know in this business? If you intend to make a reservation of their service, the first few documents that you have to prepare is your valid driver's license. You should be at least 25 years old of age to qualify for the use of their vehicle. Remember that the rental company is held responsible for any accident or damage encountered upon use. For this reason, it is only important that you possess a license to drive. It will not be a very good scenario if you are caught driving without one with the agreement of a rental company, as this may inflict bad reputation to the said office.

The age limit set upon the company policy is based on records of most, if not all insurance companies that allowing people under 25 to drive a vehicle means putting your business at quite risk. You belong to a particular risk pool if you are under 25 and is only removed out of it once you reach the age required. The removal will also point reference to your years of driving experience and your personal driving record. This record will show how your driving was and is at the moment, whether you've been ticketed for foul driving or not.

Myth or Not?

Some people are made to believe that renting a vehicle would warrant them to bang it to the wall for as long as they wish and not be held liable, provided that you have signed to a basic insurance policy. This is a big fallacy. As a vehicle renter, you are required to agree with the terms and agreements of the company's insurance rates.

You can also make use of your own personal car insurance to insure your rented vehicle. This would mean doing the rented vehicle any warm would be one and the same with smashing your very own car at your own stake. If you do not want extra charges added on your credit card bill, make sure you understand the insurance terms you signed upon with their company.

Information About Mercury Outboard Motors

By James Bennett


When beginning your search for a new outboard motor it may seem a bit overwhelming. There are just so many to choose from. Mercury outboard motors are certainly worth a closer look. Mercury has over seventy years of experience building marine engines and along the way they have learned a great many things about what customers want from their motors.

Perhaps the most important lessons they have learned is that when their customers are heading out on the water their primary concerns are the reliability and durability of their motor. If they are worried about whether they are going to safely get back to land they will not be able to enjoy their time away from land.

To be sure that every one of their motors meets their stringent standards, Mercury has set up a series of tests that every engine must pass before they leave the factory. Every aspect of the motor's functionality is reviewed, from horsepower to vibration levels.

To ensure that their motors can withstand the rigors of moving a boat through the water for a long time they are all made from stainless steel. This ensures that corrosion is not an issue, even in harsh salt water.

Maybe the most important reason to consider a Mercury outboard motor is the Engine Guardian system that comes standard with every one. This system constantly monitors the performance of the engine. If at any point it senses a problem it will instantly reduce the power out put of the engine but not stop it completely. This means that you will be able to safely make it back to land even with a damaged motor.

There is a good reason why the Mercury outboard motors have been around for over seventy years. The company has successfully combined the best proven methods and materials with the advantages brought about by new technology.
