Looks like it's moving pretty slow. Get ready for a ****load of rain and some wind. Good luck Yul and everyone in the path.

Ironically, Jimi Hendrix passed away 53 years ago today. Stevie Ray passed away 33 years ago on the 27th. Both passed with the boundless talents still in their infancy. The world was robbed of what might have been.

No we won't. By that time it'll just be a faded black, unintelligible blob of ink.

So many jokes..so little time...

A few years ago, I visited a friend of mine and met his girlfriend for the first time. She was wearing "winged eyeliner" and I thought it looked ridiculous, but I never said anything to him or her. For those who've never seen it, it looks like someone trying give themselves an Asian or Egyptian look of some kind. I keep seeing women wearing eyeliner in this fashion and saw a woman on a TV commercial of about age 70 wearing a heavy version of it and thought to myself "That looks hideous". I decided to look it up to see if this was a new trend and whom it was fashioned after. Turns out that it's been around for a while. Audrey Hepburn wore a version of it and so did Elizabeth Taylor, although Taylor was playing Cleopatra. Has it become popular in your area and do you think that it enhances women's appearance? I don't, but that's maybe just me as I don't like a woman with moderate or heavy makeup. What do you all think?

Mr. Barleycorn is in the business of selling firearms. I'll just bet that he doesn't want to sell an incomplete gun. I was cleaning my '73 in the garage and the indent ball flew out. I heard it hit the drywall ceiling and bounce once off the concrete floor. I looked for that damn thing for an hour. Near the end of the hour, I was letting a few swear words out (okay, more than a few), kind of loud. My gal came out to see what I was cussing about, so I told her about the little ball that was 1/2 the size of a BB. She looked down, bent over, picked something up and said "You mean this?" You guessed it, it was the ball...she had found it in less than 30 seconds.

I'll pick up any denomination of money. Coincidentally, I picked up exactly a nickel and a penny yesterday. While working in parking lots for 3 years, I picked up a bunch of change and a few paper bills also. I'll say that over that 3 year span, I picked up close to $20 in change and about $40 in paper bills (one was a $20). Had to work at a few car washes over the years also doing electrical repairs. Believe it or not, there was always lots of change on the ground where the vacuum's were located. Don't know why. I pick it up because I'm cheap AND poor.

Evidently, he has had multiple offers over $1,000,000 and supposedly turned them down. https://www.foxnews.com/media/oliver-anthony-turned-down-8-million-dollar-offers-since-going-viral-nothing-special-about-me

Salient points? Keanu Reeves and brake failures...makes sense now! Go fight with someone else...I'm not in the mood.

Whatever...

Has anyone ever NOT done that? You'll find it...right after replacement.

I know this isn't an instrumental, nor is it particularly cheerful...but it's always brought me peace...

Big difference...the gun functioned as it was designed.

Shaken...not stirred.

I'll bet that these "protesters" can't sit or lay on the Florida asphalt at this time of year...if they did, I'd let them fry there.

If I had something like those, I'd never leave home.

$20 (including tax) a can...I'll pass. I will never understand why lubricant testers always test against WD40. Hell, bacon grease is a better lubricant than WD40. Why? Because WD40 isn't a lubricant!

Yeah, that may be true but that amount of time is just a drop in the bucket.

When they said that heads will roll, I didn't think that they meant it.

It won't. Baldwin walks and still makes movies with firearms. Reed will take the entire blame, not that she wasn't partially to blame. I have a hard time believing that the gun just conveniently "broke".

Gives a whole new meaning to "Your mind's in the gutter".

I built some of those. Had fun with the "engines" also.

Hell with it, I'll shoot whatever time I wants to...they didn't say "Pretty Please".

I love the .30 Carbine Blackhawk. Very accurate, LOUD and a great fireball, even in the daylight. If you guys think that the .30 Carbine Blackhawk is loud with a big fireball, check out the AMT Automag III in .30 Carbine. It's actually a pleasant shooting gun...as long as YOU are shooting it. Standing off to the side of someone shooting it is NOT so pleasant.
