While on them porch having pizza and a Coke Mrs Pedacaris climbed up on the rail and kept reaching out with her paw. Next thing I know she was standing with her front paws on my chair. Then she jumped up into my lap. I thought she was going for the pizza but what interested her was my IPad. Which she promptly turned off and then left. A few minutes later she was back exploring the keyboard. Then she curled up under my chair in front of the heater. I came in when it hit 10° and she was still there. Interesting turn of events.

The requirements for State and above Championship matches have changed since the printing of the last Shooter's Handbook. Each club that holds a Championship match signs an individual contract with SASS. The new contracts have the new 10/5 minimums in them. The "discretion of Match Officials" goes away when a signed contract is in effect. Thanks for understanding.

I seriously doubt she will ever be a house cat. And I prefer it that way. I have purchased a commercially made cat domicile. She may or may not prefer it to the woods. Time will tell.

Turn off sync in your photo app.

I made it through about 5 minutes of listening to that guy. Pretty sure that I'd rather get zapped by 120v than listen to another 5 minutes.

This model is a double long gun with a three pocket center pouch. It can hold two long guns two revolvers a pocket pistol and Derringer plus other items. Extremely well padded YKK zippers these things are bulletproof

Has anyone suggested Fast Eddie yet?

Biscuits and gravy, bacon, hash browns, and coffee. Enough salt to cure a large ham, enough starch to support a Chinese laundry for a month, enough sugar to bring on a diabetic episode, enough caffeine to keep me awake until mid-January, and enough grease to lube deuce and a half. How can that be bad?

Kind of like the joke about all the parts of the body that want to be boss... The bladder doesn't end up as boss.

Those weren't called boxes, they were called forts when I was a kid. The boxes were waxed, made them (sorta/kinda) rainproof...

I tasked @Aspen Filly 50535 with some outrageous "modern" ideas and she delivered in spades! This was meant to be an esoteric gun, she also does beautiful, more traditional engraving. There's more on her Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057558515834

Congratulations on your new owner, Bob.

Surely you are not accusing me of being politically correct. I like the word domicile. It should be used more. Along with others like cockalorum and asunder.

A few hours later

I don't think I could get used to things wanting to kill me around every corner and everywhere! My house would end up with bullet holes everywhere If ya grow up with it I suppose you don't think much of it.

Actually looks like a little girl's bedroom. Double yikes.

My wife has an iPhone and after a few years I also got one. For years whenever I buy a gun I take a photo of the receipt and firearm just in case. now that I also have an iPhone every picture I take ends up on my wife’s phone. She complained today she has numerous gun pictures and receipts on her phone now. She says she doesn’t want those things on her phone. I don’t know how to prevent it short of not buying guns anymore. good thing I didn’t sneak a picture of her in the shower or something.

It's right there next to the Farmer app... Can't remember the Farmers' his name, but I think he knows Old McDonald...

I could not find Bingo in the app.

At least in NE Ohio, the first dusting of snow every year, people totally forget how to drive. I enjoy seeing people with 4WD/AWD in the ditches thinking that they could go anywhere and drive any way they wished.

Amen Brother

Nope, I'm pretty sure it's a snake's bedroom.

I get the feeling she was abandoned and not born in the wild because she is too comfortable around you, UB. I too believe you've been adopted.

She's sitting under your chair in front of the heater. It's 10° and you went in the house. Did you leave the heater on to keep her warm?

She got him trained right...Decided to keep him.... Texas Lizard

Wonder if he was related to this Texan?

Ours was to kneel by our desk and pray the Rosary.

In close contact a blank will drop a human as well as a .177 co2 driven pellet. I don't plan on using either as my prefferred home defense round. Look up the box o truth. Birdshot is for birds. Know your fire zones, know what's beyond your target. Bring enough gun. if you are shooting at people you've already brought lethal force to the equation, why use something on purpose that MIGHT stop the threat. If you wouldn't ethically shoot a deer with for a quick kill why count on it to protect your domicile and family?

Here are mine that Eddie Viola did for me at Smokewagon Engraving.

One year I had a group of students who were the worst clock-watchers I'd ever seen. Most didn't wear watches, and cell phones weren't allowed in class. Took the wall clock face off, adjusted the hands on their spindles so that at 12:00 the hands would be aligned at 3:15. Later in the week changed the reference alignment to 7:35, then kept shifting it. Drove. Them. Nuts.
