    I don’t think he’s lost that much speed. He’s probably shucking the 5th hill at the 3 second mark

    When you're .3 splits that's forever. If I couldn't run a 97 faster than that, I wouldn't even run one.

     

    -TW. One what runs a side by side

    TW's questionable reputation as having any kind of wisdom or power comes from 3 sources:

     

    1. he reads and believes in fortune cookies that he gets at Sun Wong's Chinese restaurant.

    2.  he impresses little kids when teaching them how to ride a bicycle when he puts balloons or baseball cards

    on the spokes to make it sound like a motorcycle.

    3.  he tells people who don't know him, that he is wise.

     

    ..........Widder

     

    I don't put too much stock in the bad news fortune cookies. Only the good ones since I found out my first girlfriend was cheating on me with a Chinaman. She said his name in the bedroom and I don't put up with that mess. Wong Ho is a funny name anyway.

    TW.....I still say you got the best trained chickens in Tennessee.  Someone leaked a rehearsal video of you having them to perform....I've got to admit they were on count and on note....dance moves were right on time.  See for yourself here.  :lol:

    I sent that video to Crawdaddy this morning!

  5. Widder and @Krazy Kajun has peed me off. I'm turning the lights off today with my hoodoo. Y'all have that dup to thank for it.

    Didnt you tell him not to charge the porn sites to the credit card ?

    Someone told him midget porn was cheaper to watch than reg'lar porn. He thought he was saving a dollar or two.

  7. Widder's bunkhouse boss caught him doing something he shouldn't have been doing and won't let him get on the Wire or even write an email. He's grounded until some time Monday. He wouldn't tell me what it was he got caught doing, but getting grounded might be better than going blind.

    Here I sit, having a little snack after having a nice day.   I got up early, reloaded 200 rounds of .32 H&R and 140 rounds

    of 9mm.   Went and picked up some 2-cycle oil and some fresh gas for my yard equipment.

     

    I even called to verify my Doctors appointment next week and even made my lodging reservations for the TN State.

     

    Basically, a good day.    YET, while minding my own business (which TW knows nothing about), I get

    a phone call while eating a Taco to tell me I needed to view The Saloon and defend meowndangself.

     

    Well, because nobody really listens to TW, much less believe anything he says, I'll just sit here, finish my taco,

    drink a cold Pepsi, and enjoy my evening knowing that TW lives 3 1/2 hours away and glad he ain't my neighbor.

     

    TW is antsy because he had a colonoscopy today and it nearly gave him a brain concussion.  

    His doctor is Dr. Smellfunkus, notable for his special technique and leaving lipstick marks on cheeks.

     

    TW is his favorite patient.    

     

    Like I've said before........ ya just can't make this stuff up.

     

    ..........Widder

     

       That does sound like a great day you were having. Just goes to show you, ignorance is bliss!

     

      Before anyone asks, he found 3 polyps, a hemorrhoid, and what he believes is a hotwheel car.

  9. There's a whole big bunch of questions and what ifs on this one. I'd say too many for me to voice my opinion other than to say just from reading the OP it seems like the CLUB was trying to recruit a new shooter into SASS and kudos for that. One way to run a new prospective shooter off is to smack them upside the head with a bunch of rules (excluding safety rules. Smack them with those very hard and often). If I were being a rule Nazi I would start with, pistols started out staged but did the instructions say to restage them or did they give no restaging direction? If not, the default is for the pistols to go to leather before the next firearm is fired.

    If Hollywood ever wanted to do one of those weekly 'Real Life' shows with

    never ending events, TW's place would be a hit show.

     

    ..........Widder

     

       They came and taped for a week last year. The producers thought viewers would think everything was fake and unbelievable. Especially with all of the Widder sightings. They said it was tantamount to a Bigfoot sighting. Heck, I've even got PROOF of all of my exploits and they STILL didn't believe them.

       I showed them the scab I keep in a jar in the kitchen I pulled off my butt from when I was abducted by those aliens a couple years back.

       I showed them the jar I keep the tick in I pulled off of Bigfoot back in the early 2000s.

       I even showed them a real-life invisible ghost I keep in another jar, and they still didn't believe me.

       I told them I seen Widder shoot not 6 but 10 knockdowns in 1.3 seconds. That, they believed!

     

    Some folks just ain't got no sense!

    Yet another TW story:

     

    This past weekend, I was visiting TW and helping him inventory his gun collection.

    I noticed inside one of his safes was a small bundle of money.... looked like $50's $100's.

    AND, he also had 3 eggs sitting amongst his pistols.

     

    I said..... "Jesse, looks like you got a few thousand bucks sitting here and 3 eggs.   What 

    are you doing with 3 eggs in your safe"?

    NOTE:  Jesse is what TW's friends calll him, both of them.

     

    Anyhow, TW says,,,,,, "since I got out of the military, every time I told a lie I would save an

    egg and put it in my safe".

     

    I replied...... "Gosh, 3 lies in 26 years ain't bad.

     

    TW replied........ "Well, not actually.   Ya see, every time I get a dozen eggs, I sell them.

    Thats where all that money came from".

     

    Ya know, a feller just can't make this stuff up.

     

    ..........Widder

     

    I noticed you pooted a little when you seen all that money. I was scared to show you how much my bunkhouse boss had earned for fear you'd crap your britches.

    Cousin Martha joined the Convent.   She said to tell you 'HI'.

    She ask if you still run out of gas every time you drive down a country road

    at night..... :o

     

      Sometimes I "run out of gas", sometimes I get lost or see something scary on the passenger side of the car. 

     

    Atleast I don't cut a hole in the bottom of the popcorn bucket....anymore.

    TN State application information:

     

    Its rumored (and I don't know where this rumor started) that the original

    application for the TN State had a "Please don't put me on a Posse with.........."

    space but when TW found out about it, he had them remove it because he

    didn't want to be the only one on his Posse.   He hates picking up his own brass.

     

    I wish folks wouldn't start these kind of rumors.   Everybody knows that TW has

    good friends....... and BOTH of them would be on his Posse!

     

    ..........Widder

     

       I sure do appreciate you taking up for me and setting the record straight! That's mighty good friending right there. Matter of fact, I appreciate it so much I won't tell anybody about your hemorrhoid surgery you're having tomorrow or about that time you got to 2nd base with your double first cousin Martha. :ph34r:

    With all due respect - until the convention is rewritten.

    The RULEBOOK that every shooter receives reflects something different.

     

    Yet another example of short sighted situational rules - people create bad rules and then double down by creating caveats to bad rules.

    Then triple down by pretending that by creating caveats and conditions; they are doing anything beyond perpetuating the problem they themselves created.

     

    And these minutes are from 2016 - it's now 2024 and the rulebook still reads as I read it.  

     

    Creeker I love ya but here it is quoted by PWB from 4 months ago. You were in that discussion too.

    “Shooter standby”… Beeeeep!

     

    1 hour ago, Creeker, SASS #43022 said:

    The stage convention says "If NO starting position then blah blah blah"

     

    I contend that NO direction or instruction means exactly that; no - none - nada - zip - zilch.

    And so by contrast if ANY direction or instruction is provided (no matter how vague or lacking) it is no longer NONE  - and by the very WORDS in the convention makes the convention moot.

     

    The stage convention says if NO starting position; it does not say IF the starting position is somewhat incomplete or IF the details are vague - then use the convention to fill out the details.

     

    As Tyrel said so eloquently;

    Standby... BEEP.

    Sorry was at my daughters' practice. You would both be in the wrong to start the shooter in that position. This is the reason for the covenants. To keep everything level. 

     

    Any exception to the SASS default(covenants) only applies to the exception. NOT all of it.

    As soon as ANY specific instruction is given; the written instruction over rides the stage convention that is applicable to that situation.

     

       Stage instructions say, "begin at position 2 with hands on hat".

       The shooter gives you the line and has hands on hat with body bent over the first long gun to be fired at position 2. What is your next action?

     

  17.  

    Difference in wording and some of our conventions....

     

    Stage instructions-

    Starting position: Begin standing behind position 1 with one thumb on your nose.

    This means- You are to stand at position 1 with 1 thumb on your nose. The rest of you must be at SASS default position because that is in our conventions. You may not have a thumb on your nose and be bent over double over your rifle.

     

    Stage instructions-

    Starting position: Begin standing behind position 1 at shooters' discretion with 1 thumb on your nose.

    This means you are to stand behind position 1 with 1 thumb on your nose. The rest of your body may be other than SASS default position because of the specified "shooters' discretion".

    This does not mean you can be touching gun(s) or ammo because those specific conventions weren't overridden by the wording. 

     

    So I have to partially disagree with Creeker.

    We're losing sight of the original issue. They did not override the stage conventions.  In my ever so humble opinion this should never have been an issue.  Stage conventions say flat.  Even without posse marshal instructions this SHOULD have been understood. 

    The above is what I was saying. You just trying to be contrary to me?:ph34r:
