Sweet chocolate of course.

As I recall my early childhood most of my money was spent on Barqs, BBs, candy, firecrackers and pinball, not necessarily in that order. As others have mentioned, empty soda bottles were a good source of income as were Grandmas. I remember a summer spent at my paternal grandmothers while my great-grandmother was also living there. My grandmother had been fighting a mouse problem and had found that the traditional cheese as bait in a trap wasn't working for her, so my great-grandmother offered me a quarter a mouse. I figured mice would like what I liked so I baited my three traps with pecans with some chocolate rubbed onto them. I had a lot of funds that summer and played a lot of pinball.

Assassination attempt
Captain Bill Burt replied to Tell Sackett SASS 18436's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I’m not a big AR guy, though there are a few hanging around the house. I’m definitely not a sniper either, but a head shot at 400 feet with an AR doesn’t seem that challenging. If it had a scope I would think it would be a pretty easy shot, other than the knowledge that counter snipers will be shooting back very shortly. -
Kevin Costner’s Horizon
Captain Bill Burt replied to Nimble Fingers SASS# 25439's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I was enjoying Yellowstone until Sheridan and Costner got in a pi$$ing match and ruined the series. There are several actors who were making a name for themselves in that series, good ole Kev left them high and dry to go do his own thing. -

SER Side Match Question / Survey

Hey Deacon! I'm glad we finally got to meet at Alabama State this year. Will you be coming for the regional as well? -
SER Side Match Question / Survey
Captain Bill Burt replied to Marshal TKD, Sass # 36984L's topic in SASS Wire
I think I missed some of the more ‘interesting’ posts. Some of us are fine with shooting a PCC side match, some have no interest, some won’t attend because modern guns being shot ruins their cowboy experience and some not only won’t attend but think clubs that include PCC side matches should have their major match contract cancelled. Have I got the various opinions right? If I had the time to get involved with PCCs I would be in the first group, but I don’t, so I’m in the second group. I’m mildly interested but don’t have the time to play with PCCs. My enjoyment of SASS matches isn’t dependent upon what other folks are doing for side matches, what they’re wearing, or anything else that doesn’t directly impact my shooting experience. If I ever get to a point in my life where a PCC side match is important enough to me to affect my decision to attend a major match I’ll count myself lucky not to have bigger things to worry about in my life. Years ago I had a neighbor who got really ticked off at neighborhood kids playing outside in the community. The sound of children laughing interfered with him enjoying reruns on TV… -

A SAD NOTE: BLACK GOLD SHOOTOUT!!!
Captain Bill Burt replied to Blackwater 53393's topic in SASS Wire
LOL. Nope. It's not about the recoil. His shoulder is too unstable to be slinging guns around. -

I told the Iron Cowboy that if his shoulder is healed up we’ll drive up for Black Gold. Fingers crossed. -

One still shooting, and still repairing cowboy guns for free during matches: Joe West. A man to ride the river with.

That's great news!

Based on some of the comments I'm surprised we don't have fights break out at the matches. Kinda like hockey, throw down your guns and start swinging while the rest of us circle around the scrum. I don't have time for that. I come to these things to get away from conflict, not find it. At least the thread hasn't degenerated into speaking ill of the dead.....yet.
