Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770

That would probably require a space walk. Not knowing any better, I'd guess that everything involved in doing one often enough to get the result might be more expensive than new gear.

I don't know. "THIRD BASE!"

Back in 2021, at the tail end of the Zombie Apocalypse, (Covid), I had a friend who was a bit of a conspiracy theorist come down with his semi-annual Bronchial Infection. Normally he'd go to his Dr. and get a antibiotic that would clear in up in short order. Because of the medical community's treatment of Covid, he was reluctant to do so this time. Eventually he got so bad that his wife had to get their son to come to Ohio from Wisconsin to convince him to seek treatment. He wound up hospitalized for a couple weeks on Oxygen. When they finally released him, he still had to have Oxygen, and was pretty much confined to his couch in the Living Room. After a couple more weeks of that, they cleared him from all that, took the Oxygen away, and told him that he could resume his daily life, but take it easy. He was in the process of sending another Fire Engine to Caye Caulker Belize at the time, so he went back to working on that. He called me on Thursday and told me that he'd just put a battery in the truck, and that it was ready to go. We talked about a trip we wanted to go on after he got the Fire Engine shipped out. Sunday night, I got a call from his daughter's best friend. Saturday evening, they'd come home to find him on the floor, unresponsive. He never regained consciousness. The pulled the plug Wednesday. I flew out Thursday, we buried him Friday, had a Memorial Saturday, after which I said Goodbye to Columbus Ohio, probably for good. We'd been friends for 50 years. Every DAY I wish that we'd had the chance to make the chili.

Sometimes?

When I get those "We want to buy your house" calls, I tell them "Sure, just send me a check for a Million Dollars, and when it clears, I'll let you know." "CLICK".

Any time you see something that appears to be like that, all you need to do is look on the internet to see if it's legit or not.

That wasn't a fart. It was Alpo coming up with another question.

YES IT DOES BECAUSE I'M RIGHT!!!

Eeny Meeny Miny Moe, how do you hear my radio? Fe Fi Fo Fum, loud and clear with a little hum.

Okay Alpo, you win THIS round! I'm surprised that Subdeacon Joe didn't chime in with that one.

Again, just a guess, a movie might have the budget to have blanks special loaded for it, where a TV show would not. Or I might very well be talking out my butt.

Just a guess, but the 5 in 1 Blanks of the era might not have fit the cylinder.

Kiss it and make it better!

Not in Tucson Arizona!

And I thought I was talented because I could write my name in snow with my pee.

You misunderstand me. There are videos on at least a couple channels that show "fails" of real people at a Range, sometimes an indoor range, sometimes in a field. Some of the videos taken by people that they were with, some from security cameras at the Range, some by other people, that show frightening stupidity with guns. One that comes to mind is of a female "influencer" at an indoor range. She is NOT dressed to shoot, wearing something that looks like Daisy Duke shorts with knee high boots. When she fires her 9mm, (of course), the brass bounces off the wall and into the top of her boot. She understandably jumps, but when she does, she fires her gun again, but hits her bag which is at her feet. There are a number of them showing somebody who shouldn't be, shooting a gun far to powerful for their experience, many of them a 12Ga, and they completely lose control of the gun, sometimes having it fly out of their hands. I've seen a few where somebody with a .500S&W or similar gun, when they fire it, the recoil is enough to cause the gun to rotate back in their hands, many time inadvertently firing a second time, into the ceiling. A few had the gun rotate so far back that it pointed at their own head, fortunately without firing. If you search Youtube for "Gun fails" you will find plenty of this kind of content.

Scenes like that are why I stopped watching the show. However, I've seen far stupider, REAL stupid stuff on Youtube.

I decided to shoot my own turkey one year. Scared the crap out of everybody else in the Walmart.

Oh great. NOW he's going to get all swelled headed and post even MORE stuff.

I've only known one other person that knew about the crockagator. When we wrote our book, we used it as the school mascot.

Thought I'd read somewhere that they did. I stand corrected.

I don't think that I'd go that far. The first two Mercury flights were suborbital flights, and nobody says that Scott Carpenter and Gordon Cooper aren't astronauts. Pilots of the SR-71 are considered astronauts too.

I believe that I saw on one of the shooting TV shows Lead Dispenser said that he squirted toothpaste with baking soda in it into his Vaqueros as a Action Job and then sat in front of his TV cycling the actions for several hours.

And then they had to replace it. Please try and keep up.
