Florida law says that it is illegal to maintain a gun registry. Jacksonville has apparently been doing that for 2 years. The local state's attorney said that she saw no crime and therefore she was not going to prosecute. The state's attorney general said oh hell yes we are. https://flvoicenews.com/uthmeier-moves-to-sue-jacksonville-over-illegal-gun-registry-overriding-local-prosecutor/ Personally, I think a lawsuit is the wrong way to go about it. I think they should go arrest people that had anything to do with it and put their butts in jail. Like the attorney general said - ignorance of the law is no excuse.

The guy that owns the white house, owns the right wall. The guy that owns the beige house owns the left wall. But who owns the two internal walls? Since it's basically one building, with a wall separating the white house from the red house and a wall separating the red house from the beige house. I have a detached house. All of its walls belong to me. If I want to knock a hole in one of them, I can. It's my wall. It just seems logical that someone has to own those two other walls. Either the white house has two walls and the beige house has two walls and the red house doesn't have any, or all houses have two walls, with the internal walls being owned by both property owners. Which seems really really weird.

Quite possibly because my parents never went off on vacation by themselves. If your parents were going out of town, and you were a teenager, and they were leaving you with a friend - your friend Joe or your friend Sally depending on whether you are a boy or a girl - so your house is empty --- Would you bring your current "love of your life" over to your empty house so you could cuddle and snuggle away from prying eyes? That's the current plot in a comic strip. Instead of sending the two daughters to stay with friends of theirs, they're going to stay at the house with a babysitter. Daddy says he does not like the idea of leaving the house empty while they are out of town, but the teenage girl is sure that it's because she has started dating Anthony and Mama and Daddy are afraid of what she and Anthony would do in that empty house.

You must remember. In the first few episodes of MASH, Radar would go over to the swamp and drink martinis with Hawkeye and Trapper. In the pilot of NCIS, Ducky was a horndog that was trying to get in the pants of every woman he met. In the pilot of NCIS New Orleans, Pride had such a hokey fake southern accent I couldn't hardly stand to watch it. They all changed as they figured out what they were doing.

That's okay Dave. I don't believe the cup on the bowstring either.

Hollywood seems to like doing that. In the Chris Reeves Superman movie, early on there is a scene where young Clark is running home from school, and he's racing a train. This little girl looks at him out the window and tells her mother that there is this boy running along next to the train. Her mother tells her, "Lois you're letting your imagination run away with you again". The little girl is young Lois Lane. The actress playing her mother is Noel Neill, who played Lois Lane both in the original movie serial and in the George Reeves Superman television show. Burt Reynolds made a movie where he was in prison playing football, called The Longest Yard. One of the other convicts was Nate, who had been a professional football player before he did whatever he did that had him going to prison for the rest of his life. Some 30 years later they did a remake with Adam Sandler doing the Burt Reynolds part, but Burt Reynolds played Nate.

Anywho. In case anybody is interested. https://trueshotammo.com/products/rio-ammunition-star-team-32-12-gauge-7-5-shot-3-0-11-8-oz-1200-fps?_pos=1&_psq=STT3275-250&_ss=e&_v=1.0&variant=42242753396841&trk_msg=OHJPTHUTS2N4VE2MQ2TBISRH00&trk_contact=H4SS46GG9237294R40HP11I5SC&trk_module=new&trk_sid=JN53MEP0QNN0DO534RKT75K4IG&trk_link=0SCLKPGKFNQKDE78C7SISHSSIG

Got an email a little bit ago. Don't know how I got on their mailing list but I opened it because it said free shipping on a lot of stuff. Not everything, but a lot. Rio 12 gauge, 7 and 1/2 shot, 1 and 1/8 ounce, 1,200 ft per second. Says it's a target load. $89.99 for 250 rounds. So that's $9 a box with free shipping. Is that a good price? I haven't bought shotshell in years. Haven't been to a match in years.

Did he beat up the Martians with his cane?

^^^^^^^^ I'll second that.

Amazingly, it let me watch it. Sometimes Facebook does and sometimes it doesn't. Instagram apparently will not let you - anyway it will not let me - see anything unless you have signed up and logged into Instagram. They started that about a year ago. Before that you could watch it.

I draw your attention to the caption.

I did not know that, so I will take back my comment about shift knob makers and sighted people having enough sense to know what a number is for. The shift pattern is still 4-1-6-2-5-3.

This is the picture of the "Cub Scouts" saluting.

That would be a really fun car to drive. I wondered why each of the gear positions had two characters. Except the one on the far right which is an R. You will notice that the first character in the gear positions is the same on all of them. Three on the right and the bottom one on the left. That means #. The second character is the number of the gear. Amazingly I've never seen a stick that said #1, #3, etc. I guess shifter knob makers figure sighted people are smart enough to know that that 1-2-3 refers to the numbers. The pattern, though. Put it in reverse, back out of the drive, push it up in the neutral, go over and pull it down into first. Then push it up into neutral, go to the right and pull it down into second. Push it up into neutral, go to the right again and pull it down into third. Now push it up into neutral, go all the way to the left and push it up into fourth. Now bring it down into neutral and go all the way to the right and push it up into fifth. Finally bring it back down into neutral, bring it halfway to the left and go up into sixth. Talk about your modified H pattern. Maybe that shifting pattern is additional theft protection, just in case the car thief knows what a clutch is.

I saw a news article this morning about how the United States military was discontinuing it's alliance with what used to be the Boy Scouts of America. It had a picture that was captioned CUB SCOUTS SALUTE... The kid in the center front look like he could be a Cub Scout, maybe. And he did appear to be saluting with two fingers. The girl behind him also looked to be of the age to be a Cub Scout, but her hand was so closed up I couldn't tell if she had one finger curled or two. The other dozen or so people scattered around them looked awful big for Cub Scouts. They were wearing green trousers - which, back when I was a Boy Scout, was for Explorers - and they were wearing khaki shirts. No blue. Again, back when I was a Boy Scout, Boy Scouts were khaki and Cub Scouts wore blue. One kid in the picture was wearing that stupid red beret. Is that still part of the uniform? I thought / hoped they had gotten rid of that years ago. One of the "Cub Scouts" in the picture had a beard so I'm assuming that he was a scout leader.

Not to be confused with a bustard. Which, I am pretty sure, is considered an edible game bird.

Every time. Best of the BEST of the BEST! Sir!! And every time I hear somebody say something is for the greater good, I want to bitch slap them.

My next door neighbors had an apple headed Chihuahua. She come wandering over into my yard one day, so I picked her up and carried her home. My neighbor says, "Why didn't she bite you? She bites everybody. She doesn't like anybody!" I don't let dogs bite me. I've been bit once. Once. It hurt. Ain't gonna happen again.
