Panhandle Paladin Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 O.K., What happened was, I went to Amarillo this morning to see about buying a new mobile home, cause the school needs my house for a new teacher. And I stopped by Gebo's farm and ranch store to see if maybe they might have an 1873 rifle in stock for sale, turns out they did. And it just happened that it was EXACTLY what I was looking for, excellent case colors, good wood, the right length, just what I have been wanting for 7 or 8 years. So after I went to my meeting with the mobile mansion sales person, I went back, and I ADMIT IT! I was weak! The price was too good! And I bought it. My question is, will I go to hell for this weak moment or can I be absolved? Please help me. I feel SO guilty! But, in my defense it is my first 73, and I have wanted one for a looooooong time. What say the S.A.S.S Wire jurists? I await your verdict. Paladin
DocWard Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 No, but you will invoke the scorn of those of us who are envious.
Panhandle Paladin Posted May 12, 2019 Author Posted May 12, 2019 Please don't scorn me, I hate when I get baccar juice on me!
Yul Lose Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 I’ve been told a few times that I’m goin there so I’m going to buy a big ranch down there and have a big BBQ every night and you’re invited, but from what I’m told it takes a lot more than lusting after a rifle and acting upon the urge to get you the one way ticket.
Panhandle Paladin Posted May 12, 2019 Author Posted May 12, 2019 Well, I MIGHT have been somewhat of a Hellion when I was younger, but I think that may have been cause I never got to go to Disneyland. And I still haven't gotten that 69 Corvette I always wanted.
Panhandle Paladin Posted May 12, 2019 Author Posted May 12, 2019 Incidentally, Does George Peppard qualify as a western movie actor or is that another thread?
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Remember, Those who tempt you are quilty of the greater sin then you falling into that temptation. In essence, you ain't guilty of anything.......... its the Store's fault, along with the salesperson. ..........Widder

That’s another thread worth a couple of pages. Then it will go sideways for several more pages. Or we could just start now. This response is called a hijack.
Panhandle Paladin Posted May 12, 2019 Author Posted May 12, 2019 Come to think of it Mr. Spock and Dr. McCoy were "western" before they went into space to find new worlds and new civilizations.
Badlands Bob #61228 Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Whenever I succumb to the temptations of a new gun, it's not the devil I fear. It's the wife. Fortunately, she knows my weakness and usually understands.
Panhandle Paladin Posted May 12, 2019 Author Posted May 12, 2019 What is this WIFE thing you speak of?! Don't misunderstand I dearly loves the wimmens, but a womans heart is as hard a stone as God put on this Earth, I can find no track on it. "Bearclaw" Chris Lapp
Pat Riot Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 He comes to a Saloon to seek absolution...he must have been drinkin’ before he got here... Oh, nice move on the rifle. Well done.
Catlow4697 Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Yes you are going to Hell 73 Rifles are bought in pairs If the store doesn't have two of them ,then you must buy a handgun This is what I tell my wife when and If I tell her
Imis Twohofon,SASS # 46646 Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Alas my son . The flesh was weak. BUT you did this with the purest of motives, you went "for the school". Say three Hail Sasses and leave three coins in the offering plate, your transgression will be forgiven. Imis (some of us have used every excuse to justify what we wanted)

Sorry to take the thread off-topic, but couldn't resist the temptation...! CS

Panhandle Paladin Posted May 12, 2019 Author Posted May 12, 2019 Easy, Pards, I don't want to start no feudin!
Capt. R. Hugh Kidnme Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Say the Code of the Old West 3x, with a cowboy hat held over your heart. The throw a shot of rye whiskey (your choice of label) over your shoulder, while turning to face the setting sun. You’re absolution is complete.
Utah Bob #35998 Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Make sure you send it to me before you begin your journey to Hades. As they say, you can’t take it with you.

Yul Lose Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 Doc Ward is more of the cerebral type and I can picture him appearing in Kung Fu, the tv series.
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 Does that make him Grasshopper, or has he matured?

Yul Lose Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 Just now, Panhandle Paladin said: Why is it always "cerebral" and never "medulla oblongata-ish" or "cerebellum-ish"? Cerebral is much easier to spell.
