  2. I wonder why the catcher has two gloves? I love that catcher's mitt. But he also has a glove - appears to be fingerless - on his right hand.
  3. I was watching an NCIS last night, where they made the comment that it was illegal to sell a Medal of Honor. I just looked it up. According to the all-knowing internet they were correct. It is illegal. There was a list of medals that it's illegal to sell. One of which is the Purple Heart. On one of the newer episodes the murder victim was found to have been awarded the Purple Heart. But he did not have the medal. And Abby 2.0 spent a whole lot of the episode trying to figure out a way to get a medal to bury with him. Gibbs ends up donating his. But since it is illegal to sell a Purple Heart, logically it is also illegal to buy a Purple Heart. So if I received one, and over the years it had crawled away, could I get a replacement? Get in touch with the DAV or something? Is it possible to get replacement medals if you have lost yours?
  4. Many years back. High school kids playing laser tag at an elementary school. Neighbor saw these people with guns, call the cops. Cop arrived, saw man-sized person with a gun, told him to drop the gun. The high school kid turned around and shot his laser gun at the cop. The cops saw the red light in the muzzle of the gun. Returned fire. Dead high school kid.
  5. Is that better or worse than having the Atlanta Olympics on the river where they said "squeal like a pig"?
  6. It's an interesting question. It's basically just a longer version of the 38 Long Colt, and 38 long Colt was fairly popular. Although with the powder available at the time they would not be able to make the same ballistics. Saw a strange Western one time. The star handled man. Although that might not have been the title. But that was the name of the theme song. Bad guy had somehow managed to go back in time and he took a Python with him. So at least when he ran out of his 357s he'd still be able to feed it with 38 Long Colt. Added: just went and looked it up https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0094154/
  7. I hope they pack it better then they did my sign. I bought a tin sign. They sent it in a plastic bag, because that's green. The mailman rolled it up so it would fit in the mailbox. I sent it back and complained about the plastic bag. When they sent me a replacement they put it in a box. With a couple of large heavy items. And no dunnage to keep the large heavy items from moving. So the second sign was bent. Ain't that pretty?
  8. When he went to eat out of her food dish she was going to whoop him? And then when he came towards you she got in between him and you? Don't sound like she was afraid of him to me.
  9. I saw a cartoon. The little old lady said that she used the password INCORRECT. If she forgot her password she typed something at random and it would tell her YOUR PASSWORD IS INCORRECT. I heard of a young lady whose password was nine numbers. This other young lady saw her type it in and said, "are you using your social security number for your password????" The first lady said that she was, because she could remember her social security number. I know this other young lady. When you get the ATM card it comes in this little paper sleeve. I don't know if that's supposed to keep it clean or if it's supposed to keep it static free but it comes with this little paper sleeve. And she wrote her PIN on the little paper sleeve. So she wouldn't forget it. If I lose my ATM card, nobody can get into my account because while they have my card they don't have my PIN. But if she lost hers she gave them the PIN with it. Sometimes I wonder about people.
  10. As Joe said it's basically food stamps. I don't know precisely what they are pushing because about the time that they say "qualifies to apply for this card" I close the commercial. It was just the way they started - this is not a scam. To me, that just screamed THIS IS A SCAM.
  11. Let's suppose you are watching a commercial. And it just sounds too good to be true. So you think to yourself - this is a scam. And you don't send in for whatever they're selling. Now you're watching the same commercial, but the very first words they say are, "THIS IS NOT A SCAM". Would that make you immediately believe it's a real thing and you would call 'em up and give 'em your credit card number? There are several commercials that I've been seeing that, I believe, is telling you to apply for food stamps. And they all start out about how "everybody 65 and older" qualifies to apply. Not qualifies to get - qualifies to apply. And some of them start out telling how "everyone in the country" qualifies to apply. But this one I've been seeing lately starts out - This is not a scam. Everyone in the country qualifies to apply for this card. I personally feel that if they have to start off telling me that it's not a scam, it most probably is a scam. Y'all think the same way?
