I suppose that made sense to Brock. Does it make sense to anybody else?

That's the one. The one where all of the television heroes are shooting at Jesse.

The next to last one. The guy has the girl by the hands and she's vertical on his hands, and then she bends backwards and her feet are coming down towards his hands. I thought that when her feet got to his hands she would stand on his hands, let go with her hands and stand up, so her feet were in his hands. That would have been extremely cool. But they cut it before that happened, if that did happen.

Who has experience with a poly choke?
Alpo replied to Uriah, SASS # 53822's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
That's a good question. My brother, when he was a teenager, bought a used Ithaca 37 that was wearing a polychoke. I hunted with him a few times - dove, quail and squirrel. Have no idea whether he ever adjusted it. Have no idea whether the adjustments did anything or not. Just sort of took it for granted that if you crank it over to modify it was modified, and if you crank it the full it was full. But I've never shot a gun with one on it. -
I have no idea. I was not the technician, I was the patient. And quite possibly nowadays it's a whole lot quicker. This was in 1992. And it took 20 minutes.

AP period? Or just AP handgun rounds? I know armor piercing pistol ammunition has been illegal here for years and years. It's so you can't shoot a cop through his vest. But AP rifle ammo? You can shoot a cop through his vest with soft point hunting ammo. AP is not necessary. And I've never heard of it being illegal here. But, just cuz I never heard of it doesn't mean it ain't.

I might sit this one out...
Alpo replied to Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Damn. Here in Florida you can get a free license if you are "totally and permanently disabled". Before using it my father-in-law showed me his doctor's note - this is to certify that Mr James C Marshall is totally and permanently disabled, so he can get a free hunting license. You can also get one if you are 65 or older. I thought all states had free licenses for old people. But not California? Reason number 7382 not to live in California -

Y'all don't get a free or reduced price license for being old? -
Friend of mine had a book. 1001 LIMERICKS, DIRTY OR OTHERWISE (there are no otherwise)

will they let you out of the hospital if you have not named your kid yet?
Alpo replied to Alpo's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
My Mama was a nurse, and told me the same story. The lady pointed to the ankle bracelet and said that she really like that name Fa-molly. It was pretty. I wonder if they tell that story in every nursing school. -
That's not a proper limerick. It's not dirty.

The Smith carbine used an Indian rubber cartridge. Later some were made of copper. They held a powder charge. They had bullet on the end of it. And they had a hole in the back of it. They were fired using a percussion cap. The flame from the percussion cap went through the hole in the back of the cartridge case and ignited the powder. Basically the same way a modern cartridge case works, except the flame has to go a little bit further.

Those parents are idiots. When you come out you are already a boy or a girl. One or the other. But when you come out you are not already a Frank or a Sally. That's going to be my decision. I don't decide whether you're a boy or a girl, but I do decide what your name is.
