Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770

My all time favorite. Jennie-O used to make a commercial version, but it is discontinued. If I can find something similar, that's what we'll have. It's just the wife and I ,(unless our daughter and her husband show up), and even then not worth the effort of a full meal.

In some States, you can refuse, but by doing so you forfeit your License for a year.

Not that part of it anyway.

I experienced a lot of that. I was born in '54, so anything after about '60, I at least knew about.

No Uncle Forty.

If you remove the "hands on" parts of "Full Metal Jacket", that WAS Marine Corps Boot Camp in the late '70s. Listening to The Gunny's speech was like going back in time to my misspent youth.

As I said, trying to relive their glory days as protesters. They did, after all, pretty much cause us to get out of 'Nam.

Most of them are actually paid to be there. There are ads on craigslist for rent-a-mobs. I don't know exactly who IS paying them, but you will notice that their signs look to be professionally made too. And how about the convenient pallets of bricks that seem to be just where they need them? If you look at the latest No Kings protests, most of the protesters are people in their 60s or older trying to relive their glory days as Vietnam era Anti-War protesters, which coincidentally, is right on topic here. Mods, not meaning to Go There, but if I once again have, feel free to delete my comment.

Every ache and pain I have tells me that I'm living far from my past. Of course I remember Moonbase Alpha and "Space 1999". My best friend of those long ago days and I used to watch it in the evening and discuss it the next day. Same with "Star Trek", "The Man from U.N.C.L.E.", "Starsky and Hutch", and many others. Despite my lost youth I wouldn't go back, though I'm admittedly a borderline Luddite. (Yes, I still have a flip phone, my newest car is a 2006, and I carry a RNV as my EDC). But back then we didn't have the many modern conveniences we have today. Back then I wouldn't have been able to tell you guys about the fun I had or discuss Alpo's latest inanities. I also dearly LOVE my DVR. And back then I WASN'T retired!

I agree with you, (I know, it scares me too). I've tried a couple and just couldn't get used to it. I had an M-4 type buttstock on my shotgun for a while too, but decided that I prefer the traditional style, however on my AR it's fine.

Mostly not. When we bought our house, they were hardwired, but have since been replaced by battery powered types. But I remember "changing the batteries" commercials and PSAs as far back as I remember having HEARD of smoke detectors. The ones I have work okay too. When the guys were installing my new Air Conditioner, () and were sweating the pipework, it set one off.

Just checked again and they're back.

It depends. Does this guy know you?

I just tried again and got a HTTP Error 404. The requested resource is not found.
