What’s your most overrated gun ??
Cypress Sun replied to Buckshot Bob 's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I agree with Charlie Harley on the Mini 14. I agree about the Colt Python. I'll add the Desert Eagle (any caliber) to the list. -

I think all of us have been in that situation at one point or another during our lives. I know I have. -

Old Native American lie detector
Cypress Sun replied to Rye Miles #13621's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I heard about the "Indian" lie detector test when I was a kid. I believe almost anyone could pass that test. Accomplished liars like OJ and Casey Anthony would pass it with flying colors. -
I was a year younger than everyone else and smaller than everyone else throughout my school years. I learned pretty quick that bullies don't like people who fight back. Because of my stature (weight and height), I also learned that if you know it's going to be a fight, get the first shot in and make it count...bullies don't like getting hit first either. I never got suspended and the bullies left me alone for the most part in junior and senior high school.

For some reason I thought this was about a new type of skinning knife.

First off, I don't like Taylor Swift. Don't like the hype behind the Swift machine, the fawning publicity, her politics or her music. That being said....She has become a billionaire of her own making. She also donates large sums of money to (mostly) worthy charities. She gives out large bonuses to the "little" people who do the hard work, the "roadies" if you will. I've never seen her show, but I understand that she provides a lengthy show and puts her heart into every show and puts on the appearance of caring about her audience. She writes her own music, plays multiple instruments and actually sings at her shows, no lip sync or fake stuff. She also protects her image judiciously, no wild rumors of drug abuse or sex tapes floating around. Hell, I may not like her at all, but I respect her as a musician and, grudgingly, as a seemingly decent person. Oh, and she has more talent in her little toe than Will Farrell has in his entire body.

I've bought plenty of items in online auctions. Here are my suggestions, - Have good pictures and plenty of them. I'm not going to spend hundreds, or thousands, of dollars based upon four blurry pictures. - Have good descriptions of the firearm. Describe what can be seen (inside and out) in detail along with the normal manufacturer, caliber, barrel length, how many magazines, special markings, etc, etc. - Be available to answer questions about a particular item. I can't tell you how many times I've seen possible/probable fakes and could not get answers from the auction personnel to confirm, or refute, my observations that I have to base upon pictures. - Don't have hidden reserves. If the owner wants a reserve, start the bidding at the owner's required minimum price. I detest reserves and won't bid on them if I see "Reserve not met". - Don't try to hide/mask any blemishes, rust or and defects in, or on, the firearm. It will come back to bite you. I talked extensively with a local guy that runs a local auction. It's a ton of work to run an 500 item auction once a month or so. Sure you'll get 18 - 22% from both the seller and buyer but it is a ton of work. Paperwork for the buyer/seller/ATF, take the pictures/writing up the descriptions/posting the same, the 4473's and call ins, shipping, tons of questions and storage of the items require a lot of manhours. Good luck if you decide to become an online auctioneer.

Remember Sunoco 200 thru 260 grade fuel. Pick your Octane! The garbage 'fillers' in gasoline used then (and now) created a reason for having to "blow the carbon" out.

I'd work with him for the obscene amount of $$$ they pay these people. I would tell him, to his face, "You aren't funny" though.

Yeah, the more money than brains Category.

I don't. I don't like his films and don't think he's funny in the least.

The SSN thing is laughable and shows a lack of common sense....as does posting a picture of a firearm in such deplorable condition.

The instant will do in a pinch if there is nothing else available...but I damn sure am not going to pay restaurant prices for them. Besides that, what kind of restaurant in the South doesn't have real grits available for purchase?

Probably for asking thought-provoking questions. I don't think of Alpo as a "Florida Man" as the term is a (somewhat) recent slang term indicating low intelligence. I think that Alpo is far from a person of low intelligence, quite the contrary. Much of a person's intelligence is acquired through accumulated knowledge. He probably gained a lot of his knowledge by asking questions that others consider 'weird'. I like to think that I've become a smarter person via Alpo's questions.

Those things don't taste or have the consistency of real grits. I went to a Village Inn off of I-4 and US HWY 27 for breakfast before a large match in Orlando once. Asked for grits, they brought out instant grits...I sent it back.

I'm actually surprised that a "dirty bomb" hasn't been already deployed.
