I thought that was the Greeks, trying to get into Troy. Not the Romans. Pizza Pizza! That's a Little Caesars commercial.

Are you referring to my upper body strength comment? When you lift that large frying pan, do you lift it up to eye level and hold it?

Is it possible to be both Pilōsus and Glaber at the same time?

You answer the phone and some woman says, "Please hold for somebody that's too damn important to dial his own telephone so he has his secretary do it for him". Would you hold? How about responding to an unknown number? You get home and your answering machine is blinking, and the message says, "Please call 1-800-123-4567 for an important message. Would you call the 800 number? My answer to both is no. If I'm not important enough for you to pick up the phone and call me yourself, you're not important enough for me to talk to. And if you want to leave me a message you need to say something like, "This is Publishers Clearing House. You have won the grand prize. Please call 1-800-123-4567 for information about how to receive it". Don't just leave a phone number, because I damn sure ain't going to call it. "Please hold'. Maybe for the president. Not this president, and certainly not the illegal alien that lived in my White House for 8 years, but a real president.

The theme song to The magnificent seven is also the Marlboro cigarette commercial music.

You are a big Marlboro smoker?

So you don't do peppers? Either green or red or jalapeño?

It's not unsupported. If you're doing it correctly, your left hand is in your right elbow. So your right arm is helping to support your left arm. It's not as steady as a bench, but it is steadier than just sticking your right hand out there. But you really need to think about what gun you're going to use. You don't want to revolver, because of the gap flash. You don't want something with a heavy recoil because you don't want to get hit in the face. You don't want to automatic because you don't want the slide hitting you in the nose. Your best bet for that position would be something like a mild recoiling single shot. A Contender in 22 magnum. Something like that.

Many years ago I saw this movie on TV. Black and white movie. World War II. The Nazis had occupied this town, and at least four of them had local girlfriends. Then the Germans left. The townspeople took out their hatred of the Germans on the girlfriends. They shaved their heads and then ran them out of town. Later the four women join a partisan group. They tell the partisans that the Germans had raped them and shaved their heads. They were very good about killing Germans. Apparently they did not think they were to blame for what had happened to them. And they did not blame the townspeople. They blamed their German boyfriends. I think this shot is from that movie, although many people online say that it is from The Guns of Navarone (the four women wore scarves over their heads to hide their stubble). So I have a two-part question here. Question one is can anybody tell me the name of that movie? Does it sound at all familiar? And question two is, is that still actually from Navarone?

But - but - but I thought that was why they put the cocking serrations down by the muzzle??

As I said, most girls do.

But she's doing it wrong. I remember reading one time about some old cowboy who made a bet as to whether he could shoot the head off a chicken at 50 yards. So he draws his ole thumb buster, and cradled it very similar to the way she has it. But instead of his hand resting on his elbow he had the trigger guard resting on his elbow. The cylinder gap flash set his shirt sleeve on fire. And the recoil flipped the gun back far enough that the front sight stabbed him in the forehead. But he shot the head off the chicken.

Especially if you have small hands.

I wasn't thinking so much about nowadays. More about the actual movie, out in the desert with that Apache tracker that Big Jake brought along.

I thought the 2011 was what they called that side by side 1911. But I could certainly be mistaken.

I'm currently on another board and they're having a girls and guns thread. And they showed this video. These ladies impressed me. Most girls - I'm old, so I can call 90% of the females in this country girls and be correct - when holding a gun, bend backwards. I believe this is because most girls, but by no means all, have less upper body strength than most guys. So when they start out shooting, they lift up the gun as far as they can with their arms, and then bend backwards, using their back muscles to lift it up the last little bit needed to see the sights. And they do this when they first start to learn to shoot, and nobody corrects them, so even after they've been shooting for years many of them still do it. And that was the first thing I noticed about these ladies. They were not bending backwards. They were doing it right.

A dwarf girl that makes gun videos. I like the way she shot the 1911. Two-handed grip, but the left hand is below the right hand still holding on to the pistol grip of the gun. And she pulls the trigger with her bird finger not her index finger.

I didn't think so, but I don't watch sports, and the last time I played soccer was 10th grade PE. 1970. Not really sure about the rules anymore.
