  1. Well, thanks for the update. As usual, when the Quote Police show up, the message of the post is long lost to the quibbling over the fine points of authenticity. I have added your certification to my quote file.
  2. Here in CA, one cannot buy ammo unless they have both a Real ID plus a firearm registered at the current address of their driver's license. This precludes Aunt Gramma from buyin ammo presents, in most cases. They can somewhat get around the registered firearm requirement, by paying the $19+ background check fee.
  3. "It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything." --Joe Stalin
  4. I am formally trained in classical piano. However, in high school I took up the sax because Mark Lindsay from Paul Revere and the Raiders played sax. Playing the sax split my lower lip (long and painful), so I gave up and went back to playing instruments with hands and not mouth.
  5. As always, the voters are the ones to blame. One has to ask "why" the voters in Canada and the US elect these monsters.
  6. At Mardi Gras this year, I was very impressed with the huge number of youth marching bands. Full uniforms, majorettes, baton twirlers, pom-pom boots, etc. There was a lot of Big Money on parade.
  7. I am glad to see him aggressively treating this. One of my lodge brothers had a severe UTI. The infection spread into his kidneys, then the blood stream, into his heart and finally into his brain. As a consequence, he suffered three strokes, and his life is for all practical purposes, over. They say he will linger on like this for years.
  8. Happy Birthday! I do hope I make it to your number in as good shape.
  9. Dad gave me his safety razor in 1962, when he went to an electric. I still use it today. Never had the guts to try a straight razor, even though I have a NIB one from Craftsman that must be at least 60 years old.
  10. Dad always told me, "One boy is one boy, two boys is half a boy, and three boys is none at all." His comment was directed at me hunting prairie dogs with the 22 when solo or the BB rifle with other boys. The same applies to alcohol and parties.
  11. Too close to home right now. One of my lodge brothers had 3x strokes, and is now in the VA. They say he needs super critical care, for years, at a cost of $2,000 per day. Ghastly.
  12. Red lights here, are only considered "guide lines." Two days back, I had the green, but waited it out as I always do. Some clod came speeding through the red light at full tilt, and would have driver-side t-boned me if I had gone when green. My Navy daughter tells me on Guam, you have to wait 15 seconds for the red light runners to clear out, before you go on your green.
