  1. Wanenmacher is actually an old Comanche word meaning, “watch white man walk shoulder to shoulder and belly to butt, one step at a time”
  2. Just when you think you’ve got something idiot proofed, along comes a better idiot.
  3. Flint Westwood is another that needs to be on the list. Fired the first shot at the first SASS match. With a Ruger in .30 carbine.
  4. I used to think I had some Irish blood in my veins. Then I had a taste of Guinness. So I reckon I’m anything but Irish. Like drinking coffee flavored syrup.
  5. Because she’s practicing to take over Nancy Pelosi’s job as drunk politician!
  6. While working on #3 paper machines we would have to fill a bag paper order every now and then. Folks that complain about plastic bags need to work on a paper machine making bag paper! on the other hand, paper is a renewable resource.
  7. I got lucky, got a few pics before it clouded up
  8. When my brother (Sawyer, for those that remember) was in ‘Nam he called in artillery support . They were close to the gulf. He never could say for sure, but he assumed the New Jersey answered the call. He’d heard incoming shells many times, this sounded like nothing he’d ever heard before. They impacted about 1/4 mile up the mountain from his position. After an impact a wave in the soil would come down the mountain, like a wave in water.
  9. Sorry, link didn’t work.
  10. There was at one time a lawyer by the alias of Nubbins Colt who frequently said juries would not think kindly to folks who carried “Cowboy Guns”. Most of us agreed with him. Finally someone challenged him to find a court case where this actually happened. He could not.
  11. It’d mattered to the union at the paper mill where I worked. You could have time off for an in-laws funeral. But that had restrictions. According to the contract my wife’s brother is a brother in law, but his wife is not a sister in law.
  12. This was my back. Doc went in and cleaned up all the restrictions in about 30 minutes. Back was really sore for awhile, I took hydrocodone for three nights to help sleep, did OK after that. started therapy two weeks after surgery for about 4 weeks. I still have some occasional mild lower back pain, but zero sciatica.
  13. I know from experience that it is a lot easier to pour milk into your cereal bowl from a carton or plastic jug than a wide mouth one gallon glass jar. I made a mess or two that way. But I always like raw much better than store bought.
  14. The Villain is the movie WC was referring to with Kirk Douglas as Cactus Jack Slade. Here's a link to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HicFYknnQqk
  15. If memory serves, the bullet below the case mouth does not apply to Nagants. I can't quote or post a link, but the topic was discussed a few months ago, and I think the general consensus was the bullet rule did not apply to the Nagant cartridges. Hopefully someone with a better memory will come along and clear it up.
  16. They're definitely different. I had one, used it once at a match. I had made some BP reloads, using a .31 caliber round ball. I was afraid that little 40 grain ball would be very hard to hear on the off chance it actually did hit steel. Turns out, it had plenty of oomph for the spotters, and I shot clean with that pistol. Reloads with my homemade BP or 777 FFg are quite a bit hotter than the factory rounds that I got the brass from. Here's a link to the process I used to reload them: And here's a link to a comparison test between factory, homemade, and 777:
  17. Reminds me of the one about the cat the had it's tail cut off by a car driven by a veterinary doc. Doc reattached the tail with the help of a passerby. But that's as far as I can go with this one. Y'all will have to finish it. If you don't know it ask Sawyer!
  18. I watched one episode. Seems that the hunters have to lay hands on the huntees to end the game. So, if you just locked yourself in your house and enforced Castle Law, you'd have it made.
  19. Just like winning EOT, shoot faster and miss less.
  20. Actually you could make a phone call for a penny, if you had a dollar bill. Fold the bill longways until it would fit in the quarter slot. Put it in nearly all the way, drop a penny in the nickle slot, then pull out the bill. Dial tone!
  21. I've used my Baby Remington before. I swear you could use the hammer spring as an overload for a 3/4 ton pickup. Slow, but fun to shoot.
  22. There's a little guns store/range down in Sherman, TX that on Thursday nights they set up three targets, shooters take turns shooting each other's scenarios with a timer, and scored like IDPA. I've gone down a couple of times, really enjoyed it. Just like CAS, I'm about the world's worst at it, but it is fun. Usually 6 to 8 shooters show up. One night when it was my turn to set up a scenario, I did it so you changed loaded a fresh mag while still having one in the chamber, instead of a slide lock mag change. No one had ever done that, they all seemed to really enjoy it. I've thought about bringing a shotgun to use on a fourth target, but I'd have to ask the leader if it would be OK.
  23. They're never wrong as long as they forecast in percentages.
  24. Looking like it's gonna be an "I don't care" Super Bowl.
