Alpo

I believe if I had to do it over again I would have gone Serbian. The older I get the more I detest detachable box magazines. I have two CZs. A half stock 762x39 and a Mannlicher 22 Hornet. I like them both. They are sweet. But $50 magazines are a pain in the ass. Zastava is built in.

You apparently misunderstood my question. I didn't care about people that lived in Detroit. I don't care who called Jenny's number. I was wondering about the people who live where I do. That had the number BE4-5789. How often they got it called by smart asses back in the sixties, looking for a date.

Is she Serbian or Czech?

This one is more believable. He's trying to help the seal, and the seal is trying to bite his hand off. You know, because the seal is a wild animal.

Without either calling the number, or paying some internet site a buck or two? We have a beach. All the phone numbers on the beach start with 234. That's BEach 4. Back in the sixties the Marvelettes had a song called BEechwood 45789. It's quite possible that that's an actual phone number out there on our beach. The lyric is: And my number is BEechwood 45789. You can call me up and have a date, any old time. And I wonder, because I wonder about strange things, how many phone calls they have gotten asking for a date? One of the two main exchanges in our town was POplar 3. But you did not have to dial the PO - the 76. You could just start with 3. I had this number running around in my head. 3-2401. I didn't know whose number it was. But I couldn't get it out of my head. So finally I called it one day. Some business or other. I apologized - "I must have dialed the wrong number" - and hung up. Four days later, still trying to figure out why that number was stuck in my head, and I suddenly realized --- it was our ZIP code.

Now there's a law that I think should be in effect. That picture of the beach. All those glass bottles? On a place where people run around barefoot?? That oughta be agin the law. You want to carry booze to the beach, that's fine. But it needs to be in something that's not breakable - plastic or metal.

How do you pronounce the country? I've always thought it was Aus-strayl-ya The reason I ask is because in the video I mentioned she referred to her country as Aus-strayl-lia That could just be an individual thing. I know people that pronounce the double t in kitten and button. Kit-ten. But-ton. I know a girl that pronounces the t in panties like it's a double t. Pant-ties. I don't pronounce that second t. Kit-un. But-un. Pan-ties. I don't know whether I'm saying it right and they're saying it wrong or they're saying it right and I'm saying it wrong. But I do know that we don't say it the same way. So maybe it's just her. But it sure sounded strange every time she said it.

That was my thinking. Y'all are a bunch of lushes.

That woman - three or four posts up, Jenny somebody - made another video where she was talking about how embarrassing it was to go anywhere else is in Australian because the Aussie laws were so harsh and she was always so surprised. They sell alcohol in grocery stores??!!!? Now that one I sort of understand. I'm used to beer and wine being sold in the grocery stores. I went to Puerto Rico. They sold whiskey and rum and gin in the grocery stores. WOW!!!!! And then she had one about drinking in the park. "Oh my God we're going to get arrested!!" Y'all can't drink in the park? Have a picnic and you got a couple beers? She had one about people drinking in glasses outside of the bar. I suppose I just don't hang around the right places. I'm not used to, really, seeing people drinking out in public. But out on the beach - tourist area - people walk up and down drinking beers. They have open-air bars, or they serve the booze in them thin disposable plastic cups like you get your CoCola in on an airplane, and sometimes people stand there and drink their drink and sometimes they walk off carrying it. Y'all aren't allowed to walk around in public with booze in your hand? You got to be inside - in a bar or in your house or in a restaurant? He was quite shocked - why aren't they getting arrested??!!??

Penny for the guy?

You suppose this actually makes sense to the Aussies?

I kind of like Jake and Elwood's version.

Meat or vegetables? I've done some dried pinto beans, but mostly I've done meat. I've done cow Deer, pig and chicken Also done ground beef and my homemade chili. I did my spaghetti sauce but to me it changed the flavor. Remember to take your altitude into account. I live at sea level - well, 14 feet. When I did some at my daughter's in Atlanta, over a thousand feet, takes longer. Just like when people are going to start reloading you get a recommendation to get a copy of the ABCs of reloading - get yourself a copy of the ball Blue book. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ball+blue+book&t=fpas&ia=web

Pressure canning or boiling water? Because there is a difference.

I would think this would be a federal law - like a straw purchase - and so would be the same all over the country. Gun purchases are regulated by the feds. ATF. And booze purchases are regulated by the feds. ATF.

Several years ago, long about EOT time, there was all sorts of people posting their recipes for apple pie. As a general rule it was basically apple cider and Captain Morgan's.

I was just watching a YouTube short - don't know if it was from a TV or a movie. Bunch of high school kids looked like. One of them was on crutches. And he went up and asked the guy outside the liquor store - excuse me sir, I left my ID at home and I was wondering if I could get you to buy me a bottle of whatever. The other guy says, "you know asking that is illegal". The kid said that it wasn't, and the man pulls out his badge and says "yes it is", and all the other kids scamper off into the darkness. And this caused my wonder. It just seemed like - if I sit there and think about how if I rob the liquor store I would have enough money to do something or other. That's just random thinking. But if I get together with a couple of people and talk about robbing the liquor store, that's conspiracy to commit a felony. Still just thinking about it. Not doing anything. But one way is just me fantasizing and the other way is me committing a crime. Laws are strange.

I wonder how pyrodex RS would work? I just found a full pound of that stuff back on the shelf that I didn't know I had.

I know that it is illegal for me, as somebody that is older than 21, to buy booze for somebody that is under 21. So if some kid stopped me outside the liquor store and offered me money to buy him some booze and I did it - I broke the law. But if it illegal for the kid to ask me to do it? And if that is illegal, what would the crime be? Conspiracy to buy alcohol by an underage person?

Not the ending I was expecting when you started that story. I was expecting you to say that the warden came out and put the goose down.
