Forty Rod SASS 3935

Just a chair full of bowlies. (A tip of the hat to Professor Spooner.) Slicker that teflon snot (my 8 year old grandson's contribution back twenty years ago.) bats in the belry knock him into a cocked hat. it's snowing.We can go tubing.passing the buck. Goody Two Shoes. don't get your dander up. whole nine yards.

Poor cat is probably stone deaf after that. Do cats get PTSD?

I don't see how that can top out at 5 to 6' feet high from a 3 foot table and it looks to be longer from front to rear than 1 foot. Good price, though.

I knew a guy who was a genius at playing stringed instruments. He was as good as she is on a balalaika, BUT HE WAS 27 YEARS OLD AND BEEN WORKING AT IT FOR 12 YEARS. He even tried Foggy Mountain Breakdown on it, but was better when he used a banjo.

I recently joined an indoor shooting chub that has 8 bays. It is beautifully done and most of the members shoot handguns. They also allow pistol caliber rifles...like my 1860, 1866, 1873 Winchester copies, a copy of the 1883 Colt Burgess ,44-40, and a 92 Winchester copy in .45LC. Closest target is at 5 yards and the furthest is 25 yards out. The firing positions have a bench about 1' x 2' and around 3' high, too low for shooting rifles for accuracy, so I need some sort of tripod type rest with a curved and padded rest, that will fit on the bench without falling off, and be adjustable for height up to about 6'. I haven't had any luck searching the web and thought some of you might know of such a critter. I took the Henry in and after 13 years of not firing the darn thing, I shot 12 rounds at 25 yards. I ended up with a nine shot group of 3"x 5" with three fliers. Not bad, but well, you know........not much of anything else for being away from it for so long. But I'd hadn't remembered how heavy those old rifles are and after about 20 minutes I was exhausted. There was a time, unfortunately not recently, when I could have covered a 12 shot group like that and cover it with a silver dollar, and do it over and over again. Never was that good with a sixgun and a shotgun will cover a lot of space at that range. I suppose I could use Compass Range in Chino Valley....if the weather ever gets settled down. They tables that are much larger with benches and rifle rests with both ends adjustable and the last time I shot out there I had a Mannlicher-Schoenauer that was the smoothest rifle I ever fired and 8x56mm Mannlicher-Schoenauer ammo sold at nearly $4.00 a round. That was 6 years ago and ammo has gone up since then. I sold it for the cost and the fact that it had those ferschlugginger German "claw" scope mounts and after two years I still hadn't found scope rings to fit the mounts. I got back exactly what I paid for it. Anyway, I'd like to find a way to use the indoor range until winter goes away and sight in all my guns. I'll have to wait on the weather for the .45-60, .45-70, .35 Remington, .30-40 U. S. Krag, and.30-06....and the love of my life, a .50 Lyman Hawken rifle that bought in 1966 for $123.00. I know! I know! I've got to get to where I can send pictures. I'm working on it.

Goes back to beginning of humans: "my God can whip your God" and then the killing starts.

Why "the western"? The church was founded in New Yawk.

Funny, that subject came up our weekly Marine Corps League breakfast just this morning. If they do keep the new names I'm not sure my son will even exist any longer: he was born in the Army Hospital at Fort Lee, Virginia. My daughter was born at the Army Hospital at Camp Kue (pronounced KOO eee), Okinawa and they changed the name on that one already.

We used to watch the Osmonds before they were "The Osmonds". They would go around singing in local Wards from time to time.

Two of Dad's favorites (When Mom wasn't around.) Raining like a three p.......d horse peeing on a flat rock. Sh.. and four's ten and two more's a dozen.

I've lost quite a few dogs and it's never easy. You have my prayers.

tighter than two coats of paint (One of Dodge City's phrases. I just took it when he died.) cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey....or a steel bridge.....or a pawn shop sign. dead ringer get down to brass tacks got his goat pipe dream a square meal getting all gussied up

I don't want to shoot anyone. Doesn't mean I won't! The second he became a threat to my wife or kids or me he is going to get shot. Probably more than once.

Yeah! I'll bet Trump gets blamed for that, too.

What did I miss? I asked that question in a bar once and was told by one guy "If I remember right, you missed dang near everything you shot at." Every man jack in the place...and most of the ladies, too....laughed their butts off. I got even with them though. I went to another bar from then on.

I love that place. I ordered a Uberti First Model American in .44 Special, nickel plated with a 8 inch barrel andwalnut grips. I paid cash up front. Took nearly a year and someone called me about weekly to keep me in the loop. I finally settled for one in .45LC because they couldn't get one in .44, It came with checkered walnut grips at no additional cost. I checked and the new cost was nearly $300.00 more than I paid. I asked about it and was told that I paid for the gun at the original price and that was I got it for. The grips were free because I had waited so long. I called them back a week or so later to order another one just like it and they said they weren't importing any more plated or with 8" barrels. There were only a few like it brought in. Oh, well.

It started before sunup this morning. We haven't had much snow for the last two or three years and the water table is in serious straits and we can use the water. It' still snowing, coming down for almost eight hours, and like I said, we need the water. But so much, so fast.....it's just beyond belief. Why, it's piling up to the point we must have 1/4 inch. maybe twice that much in some places. I hope it goes on for another month or more. I bought a snow shovel about seven years ago. Had to wait a week because they just don't stock a lot of snow shovels here. By the time I got it the snow had stopped and I have only used the thing four or five times since.

I have an old style flip phone. It's very small, handy and convenient. I don't have hundreds of things on it that I will never use...and I can't receive texts nor send them. I've told hundreds of people to NOT text me and then I get letters asking why I didn't respond. (It's one of very few complaints I have with the VA and almost nothing else matters.) Now here's the part I like best: I got this phone with all the discounts for NOTHING. Nada. Nicht. It costs me less than thirty dollars a month. I had one office tell me "well, you'll just have to het a smart phone." I said I would, but when would I get the check. "What check?" The check that YOU or you Micky Mouse company are going to send me to pay for a $2,000.00 piece of crap so you don't have to simply pick up a phone (which you did to make this call) or send me an email, or, perish forbid, an honest to God LETTER!" A supervisor got on the phone who told me "You just don't understand....." "No sweetheart, YOU don't understand. The Veteran's Affairs pays you a lot of money because they don'rthave a machine to do this scan, but you do. A few hundred other places from Phoenix to the Utah state line DO have them and I'll call whoever I have to to get you removed from their list." Know what? They send me a email now and no one gets on the phone an insults me...at least from that office.

I remember my dad telling me what he earned his first year as a school teacher. I don't remember how much it was but he said if they had offered him $300.00 a month he would have signed a lifetime contract. MY first year teaching I was paid $330.10 a month..... and we got by. At the end of the year we moved to Pekin, IL and I went to work for Caterpillar for $780.00 an month and It went to $815.00 five weeks later when I finished my training. When I sold my share of a four partner business and retired I was averaging a whole lot more.

You have my prayers, folks. Keep us posted.

No, but Stenbridge Arms was pretty adept at making dummy guns that would. A close up would show you that they weren't real, but a quick look would pass.

My Mother's family were half Italian. Latin was the language of Rome (Italy) so I'm 1/4 Latino on Mom's side. Want to start a fight? Declare that in LA. And when some puke challenges you, call him "Chiquita" and refer to the pukes with him as his "girlfriends". It hurt a bit and the colors faded after a week.....but it was SO MUCH FUN! Hint: do in front of a couple of local LEOs who are your friends.
