Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770

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.

When I was stationed in Okinawa, I LOVED getting a haircut from a local. An Oriental Barber ALWAYS gives you a 30 second massage when you're done. There was even one at a local Barber College that did so as a student.

To make headlines. Pure P.R.

There was discussion on another thread about Superman ducking the thrown gun after the bullets bounced off him. Somebody pointed out that once he did catch the gun and crush it. That must have been the S&W. They then had to replace it and got a colt. (Sounds as reasonable as anything Alpo would come up with. And I'll bet that Subdeacon Joe could find a video of it.)

I use this stuff on headlights. Works good, but you have to touch them up a couple times a year. A spluge on a polishing pad and a couple minutes by hand on each light works wonders. I use it on the windows of my Jeep too.

William Shatner went up on Blue Origin's New Shepard in October 13 2021. Publicity photo with him and the others he went up with.

On the positive side, they didn't get lost and have to stop for directions. (Yes, I know..) At least Captain Kirk went first.

That'll never hold...

Yeah, rap music... the "C" is silent. We have the same "We can't control it" at our gym. Some of it's okay, but then sometimes I'm saying, "Da*m, there's something wrong with the radio."

Seek professional help immediately!

A welding jacket will probably be green.

Either way they're not metal! Hollywierd says so.

But in "Die Hard 2" they said it was completely plastic so that a metal detector wouldn't see them?!

A friend of mine had a mother that was a total control freak. Sometimes she would pick up another phone when we were talking and just listen. If either one of us heard the "click" of her doing so, we'd say, "Hey, I just heard from Jack", and we'd wrap it up. Sometimes she'd pick it up, listen for a few seconds, and start dialing like we weren't even talking!

Marines are always giving The Navy crap, but we NEVER did so to our Corpsman. I've seen more than a few times when were on a Forced March, when we would typically stop for about 10 minutes every hour, Marines taking off their boots complaining about their feet, but our Corpsmen were running up and down the line making sure that WE were okay when they had been marching right along with the rest of us.
