What a surprise!!

Very simple. In this group, I'm surprised no one understood. Obviously, the home owner was a hand-loader, who didn't charge his cases with enough to work the action on his semi-auto. While it fired and the bullet cleared the barrel, with out a squib, and put the misguide, improperly potty trained, mis-understood, alternative life style individual down, it wasn't quite enough to finish the job. Thus the need to work the action. Good Lord! It took a disarmed Canadian to figure this out and explain it??

Just a reminder:

Good God! You folks have a beautiful National Anthem, music and vocal. It doesn't need to be "Interpreted"! I am a Canadian.

Can you tell us what we are seeing in pics 2; 3; 4 and 5? Thanks

Knees still need replacing and had to be put off until an abscess I had cleared up. THEN broke a tooth and had to have the root drilled out. Since it's in the front of my mouth, I opted for an implant ($$$). NOW I have to wait until I can get back on the list. BUT, since I'm now over 80, who knows. Maybe our Dear Leader and his cronies will offer me MAID.* * Medical Assistance In Dying

We've used a 90 degree in our old winterized cottage. No electricity, a couple of wood stoves, fireplace, propane lights and a kerosene operated frig. In winter, for Ski-doo trips (every weekend) we ran the stove pipes from the stove in the main room, from the wall where it was positioned, through a wall into the kitchen area and out, to scavenge as much heat as we could. (Temps in the -20 to as low as -45 where our place was on a trout lake) We had to clean the pipes every so often, in winter, to keep the wood ash build up down. We took the pipes down when the weather got milder and only ran things winter style after the deer season in November. We dismantled the winter piping system after "Ice Out" in the spring.

That's similar to what we leave in the clubhouse and forgot about the butane vs. freezing temps. Now a screw top preserving bottle holds some "Strike Anywhere" matches at the ready, along with some kindling set to go and my egg carton/drierlint/wax fire starters alongside in a metal container to keep mice out. Here's the airtight c/w Turbo Fan before I scraped off the rust and applied the new heat resistant paint. (Love that stove when the temperature drops!)
