  1. Poor baby has PTSD? Let me take him on a day long tour of places I go and the people there. Just he and me and the people he'll meet. Not one of his comfort puppets to shield him from the truth. I'll show him PTSD and make him cry like a little girl before that day is done. Of course I don't think he has the ba.......guts to even think of such a thing.
  2. Absolutely the funniest movie ever made. I watch it at least once a year.
  3. have never eaten Canadian bacon. Does it taste like "our" bacon? Is it leaner? I'm fed up with buying a pound of bacon and ending up with half meat and half fat.
  4. I played Patrick Henry in a fifth grade assembly. The teacher, Henry Cooper, said "just say it firmly. You don't need to raise your voice". That was my first time on stage...but far from my last.
  5. How good is it? Who does it? What does it cost. I want to add my DIL to a pic that she wasn't in because she hadn't married my son yet. She's part of the tribe now, though....thank God.
  6. If that looks like a double dip to you it's because it is!
  7. I always got MY WAY....as soon as my wifr told me what it was> I always got my own way....a.s soon as my wife told me what it was.
  8. I know nothing. I saw nothing. I didn't do it. I wasn't there. She said she was over eighteen. Five statements that served me well over the years.
  9. I found a German .22 revolver, a real POS, on a school ground as I was walking to work. After school I took it the police station. I went in, told them I had found a gun, it was in my car, and I wanted to turn it in. Two cops walked me out to my car and I found myself looking down the barrels of two guns. A third cop came out handcuffed me and searched me and my car. They questioned me and got all pissy when I demanded an attorney (my wife's boss) be present. I was yelled at, cussed at, threatened, and insulted, asked totally unrelated questions, insulted, and generally harassed. Finally an officer who was assigned to the campus of yhe school and knew me quite well, came in, questioned two of the cops, an HE called my wife's boss. After four hours I was turned loose without any comment from the jackasses that had tried to violate almost ALL of my constitutional rights. Mister Jaffee sent a letter to the police Chief, the City Council and Mayor, every news paper ,TV, and radio he could think of, the California State Bar Association, and anyone else he could think of. I was suspended from my teaching job without pay and never set foot in that school again. I had a friend pick up my personal belongings. After two weeks I got a note saying "We are sorry for your inconvenience and any misunderstanding that there was." No punctuation and lousy English.) It was on OPD stationery, but was unsigned. That was California about 2008. If I ever find another gun I will carefully take it without touching it, shoot a couple of holes in a school house or church with it, and hide the gun in the Police Chief's back yard or in his car....and make an anonymous phone call to a TV station. I had no use whatsoever for California cops and never will. Arizona LEOs are a totally different breed and I have nothing but good contact with those I have met here.
  10. I did that before I could afford more magazines, usually with .22LR rounds. I was surprising how I could grab six rounds for a Bearcat or Colt Scout, probably five out of six times. I did almost as well with .45Colt, too.
  11. Clumsy, hard to carry and / store.
  12. I have no idea why the one here is still open. I go through it from the parking lot to the insice of the mall ans most of the time you could fire grape shot in any direction and not hiy anyone. No appears to be working there...you have to search them out...and there are few, if any, shoppers. Been that way since we moved here 12 years ago. Sears is gone, Sam's Club and the AAA moved 95 miles away down to Phoenix. C. A. L. Ranch opened a new store here ("Bigger and better than the one in Prescott" .....NOT!).
  13. I have not set foot in a McDonald's since the San Ysedro California massacre in July 1984. About 40 people where shot and half killed (one an unborn child) by a madman, a terrible occurrence for sure....as all such shootings are.... BUT the wife of McDonald's founder didn't blame the killer, but put all her weight and a ton of money behind the anti-gun movement. The place could vanish from the planet and I'd not shed a tear.
  14. Not all heroes are white, American, or Christian. It has taken a lot of years for some to admit to this and accept it. Far too many still don't. Atta boy Sgt.Maj. Vousa. I would have been proud to know you.
  15. Two three gallon water canvas bags, or one per person, were standard equipment when we were still going camping and hunting and just traveling around. They carry well when empty, aren'y all the heavy when empty and not ridiculously heavy when full, keep water cool from evaporation if you hang them in the shade, and back then they cost under a dollar each. I haven't laid eyes one one in about 25 years.
  16. I stopped sending my grandson anything when he never acknowledged receiving them. Last year he complained to my son and DIL about not even getting a card from me. My DIL (I love that lady)quietly asked him if he'd ever so much as let me know that he had received anything. This year I got a Christmas card and a birthday card from him. If he keeps it up until next year I'll send him a card. It will take a lot longer than that get mentioned in my will again.
  17. My very first credit card bill (I was 17 and bought a jacket from J. C. Penny): I paid it before I got the bill. Bill came in for $00.00. I laughed and threw it away. Next month I got a notice that I was in arrears for $00.00. This repeated for three more months. Finally they threatened to take legal action and to put a negative statement in my credit rating. I went the the manager of the store...a family friend...and asked how I could get this BS stopped. He told me to send them a check for the full amount. I did, for $00.00, and never heard any more about it. That was in 1959, long before anyone knew about computers. I destroyed the card and haven't done any business with JCP since.
  18. YEAAAAH, duz! Be careful. You could damage yourself trying to say that too fast...or bite your tongoe or lip.
  19. Original Tabasco sauce is as hot as I get.....generally.
  20. I should have said "some of" the movies". Some of them were so bad they could be described as "criminally bad."
  21. What a rude comparison. At least the Sci-fi movies were entertaining. The Tesla is just plain ugly and a lousy design both inside and out.
