So, you’re saying you don’t know much about them but you don’t like the way they look?
No, I'm saying I have a pistol (several actually) that fits my needs, so I don't need any more and I won't pay for something that looks like a dime store toy.

Okay, enough of that! I'm going to a weekly breakfast with the local Marine Corps League. I'm thinking blueberry pancakes, bacon, and coffee. I'll eat that, you can eat your hearts out.
Have a great day.

im noy into beans enough to go with what others posted here , ill eat a little on occasion that warrants it , but im more inclined to green geans than any other - i suspect its a textural thing and an upbringing thing - too much goulashes with lots of beans , the one ill never ever touch again is lima beans was fed too many of those as a kid

That's why they make chocolate and vanilla ice cream: everybody has their own tastes.
Mine are the best but if you think yours are, we can both be right.....unless we're discussing toilet paper.

Y'all reminded me of when we went to Flagstaff for a quick get away, (I highly recommend the night tour of Lowell Observatory), and there was this eatery down the street from our AirBNB that boasted the best biscuits and gravy. My wife loves that, so we stopped in.
The "biscuits" were dinner rolls. Big, fluffy, dinner rolls. It was terrible. She was quite irked.
Ran into a place in San Diego that made outstanding biscuits and gravy. Went down once and the lady said they were out of biscuits but she had plenty of gravy.....and English Muffins. Mighty fine substitute.

I have put barbecue beans on a hot dog (so obviously on the hot dog bun) when I was out of chili.
Does that count?
Only if you eat hot dogs. That's another survival food.

Anybody ever had beans on toast?
Yes, but that's survival food. I don't like it well enough to eat it unless there is simply nothing else.
The only thing English that I truly like is HP Sauce and Worchestershire Sauce (83 years old and still can't spell it.).

I'd like to see how those would fit into ANY military aircraft except big cargo haulers. They're about as useful as a barb wire jock strap.

Doesn't look any worse than the current uniforms or the ones for the Space Patrol.

In PA the DFG would do the same things.
I was driving home from work and a I saw 3 game wardens setting up an elk on a hillside. I thought “This is hilarious! Do they think people will actually shoot that thing?”
So I hooked a left and went up the hill and parked so I could see the road below and the stuffed elk on the hillside on the other side of the road.
About 10 minutes later I see my idiot brother-in-law in his idiotic looking black truck on the road and it slows down. He sees the elk. He pulls off and gets out of his truck then reaches behind the seat and pulls out his rifle.
Moral Dilemma: Do I let him shoot and get busted or do I yell at him and tell him the DFG is watching?I would like to say I took the high road. I did not.
He fired once. He lowered his rifle and looked at the elk. He fired again then stood there in shock that the deer didn’t move. That’s when the DFG rolled up along with a State Trooper car.
Idiot brother-in-law arrested.
That show was well worth the price of admission.
I watched them bust two more idiots before going home.
There were no elk in PA in 1989. These guys just could not help themselves.
I did tell my wife about her brother. She laughed and told me I was a bad man.
I think he paid a $1000 fine for his transgression.Why would it be illegal to shoot stuffed animals. My wife worked for an office full of lawyers who would have a field day with that.

Someone kicks in my door and enters my home there will be gunplay.
Not at my house because I won't be "playing"!

I'll keep my 1911.
It's paid for and looks better to me.
Of course in my opinion a crooked stick looks better than most new guns do.

Well, I think a tri-corner is a helluva lot more useful and more military looking than a flippin’ beret.
Yep.

I DO have afib, too, but the pacemaker seems to have calmed it down. Doc says it's not supposed to. I told him to leave it the hell alone and start a research program going, but leave me out of it.

Doesn't work any better than some of the others.
Our best solution is to go into the gun room, put a pad and blanket under the desk and sit it out.
I recommend a piddle pad and water, and a medium volume sound machine ( a gift from my daughter-in-law and borrowed for each occasion) and just sitting there where my dog knows Daddy will keep the monsters away.

There are two major restaurant chains that serve gravy for dipping with their fried chicken! DQ and Sonic and they are both very good!
POOP #2?
Everyone but Boston John Doucette #1 was #2. There could be thousands of us by now.

If I have any doubts I write down the info and call the VA Medical Center. My team will go to great lengths to track it down...and report the crap that doesn't ring true. Their motto is if it doesn't sound right or we can't verify it JUST DON'T!

I wonder if schools would ever go that deep into and teach it that way???
They don't seem to go that deep into anything. It's why I quit teaching.

I figure we’ll be havin’ biscuits ‘n’ sausage gravy tomorrow morning! Gotta take Schoolmarm in for a checkup with her kidney doctor and over to the other side of town for meds. There’s a couple of great breakfast restaurants along the way and I ain’t had no biscuits ‘n’ gravy in a couple of weeks!!
EDIT!: Figure I’ll have a few eggs and some bacon too!!
Atta boy Blackwater. Add some good coffee and that's a breakfast.

My mother was a pretty good cook but one of the dishes that she didn’t do well was white gravy. We were not well off and ate a lot of biscuits and gravy and chipped beef on toast. I really got to where I couldn’t stand white gravy or gravy with sausage or chipped beef in it. Still to this day I’ll pass on the biscuits and gravy or any white gravy, those memories are still there. I likened her gravy to eating Lepages glue that we used at school on art projects onetime and my step dad beat the hell out of me for it, but the glue still tasted better.
Yul, we have a little place near here called Nana's Cafe. Next to my own, they make the best gravy I ever tasted. I have no clue as to what goes into it but's thicker than most, has good pork sausage in a large percentage, I seem to detect bacon drippings, and something else....but they won't tell and can't identify it on my own. FWIW, I add a small dash of Tabasco to almost everything but ice cream and coffee, but that's just me.
BTW, it isn't white gravy but a rich brown color.
Come on up and I'll buy you breakfast and you can decide for yourself

I never had much use for those kinds of rides. I got my jollies by skiing, racing sports cars, climbing mountains and hunting or fishing, chasing girls, and riding horses and mules.....not necessarily in that order.
And then there were the years in the Army and Marine Corps.

You just don't get it, it is all about control and who is easier to control than a law abiding dog owner!
There are massive numbers of people who just look for some BS reason to force their stupid ideas on other people because you know, they are so much smarter than anyone else so they NEED to force it down our throats to justify their useless existence.....and no one challenges them.

Good question. There was a time when I would have answered yes, but I'm too old and crippled up now to do it.
Okay, I'll admit I'm part of the problem these days.
