Some observant and concerned cowboys noticed that my website has mostly unavailable products and that I am selling bullet molds in the Wire Classifieds. Let's stomp out a few rumors and misconceptions. This will be a huge relief to most folks that know me. I AIN'T DYIN'! (yet) More important OUTLAW BULLETS IS STILL AROUND. I am replacing old molds with newer ones to make an even better product. With the pandemic a ragin' all around us and because of some personal health issues that caught my attention I decided to slow down a bit on the away trips. I can always be contacted through my Website. Texting is best. Email 2nd. Phone is bad. Can't hear in the shop. Too tired at night. Thanks for your concern! Waimea
Hendo Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 So, a new line of Outlaw "ain't dead" lead comin? Or is this the "I am the walrus" promo? You could work this into a good ad campaign. Just sayin....
Badlands Bob #61228 Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 Glad to hear the rumors I started are not true. Actually, I didn't start them. I just added to them and passed them on. Just trying to throw the tax man off your trail. Looking forward to seeing you again so I can stock up on some more of those Outlaw Bullets.
Wyatt Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 Boy, do I feel silly for starting that humor. Haha I’m gonna start a new humor that I had something to do with you having “Outlaw” under your name

Dogmeat Dad, SASS #48563L Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 Good to hear from you Pard! Thought I might bump into you at the Darkness Double Header, but you were no where to be seen. Preacherman was too busy trying to keep an eye on me to spend much time letting us know how you were doin'. Glad to see you are on the mend. Hopefully, we will see you at the Ides. I still got squibby in my change purse for you!
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 How can the Moderators be prejudice against a dead person? How can they possibly delete a historical post by someone who longer exist? Who is this Waimea impersonator? Could it be 'Preacherman'? ..........Widder
Cypress Sun Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 I'm glad to hear that you ain't dead as I'm sure that many others are glad to hear it. Ole blue eyes can stop cryin' in the rain now.... or maybe that's where you was all along.....hmmm?
The Rainmaker, SASS #11631 Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 Glad to hear it, Waimea! Things are tough all over and I have noticed you were outta stock on my favorite bullets. Ramp it back up when ya can and mark me down for some boxes of 200 gr .45s. Take care and see ya soon.

TN Mongo, SASS #61450 Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 It's all good! I got a proof of life text from Waimea the other day. Monty Python Not Dead Yet clip - YouTube
Tequila Shooter Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 Originally the following was written for Mark Twain, but it’s been modified for Mr. Waimea. In 1897, an English journalist from the New York Journal contacted Waimea to inquire whether the rumors that he was gravely ill or already dead were indeed true. Waimea wrote a response, part of which made it into the article that ran in the Journal on June 2, 1897: Waimea was undecided whether to be more amused or annoyed when a Journal representative informed him today of the report in New York that he was dying in poverty in London ... The great cowboy/bullet maker, while not perhaps very robust, is in the best of health. He said: ‘I can understand perfectly how the report of my illness got about, I have even heard on good authority that I was dead. James Ross Waimea, a cousin of mine, was seriously ill two or three weeks ago in London, but is well now. The report of my illness grew out of his illness. The report of my death was an exaggeration.’

Scarlett Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 Cowboys and rumors go hand in hand. Someone told me several months ago that they had heard I had “gone out of business”... I, too, set my website to show out of stock because I don’t want backorders when I’m not sure I can’t ship. I’m pretty sure that it was that other Outlaw, @Bo Dacious, who started that nasty rumor! Glad you’re alive...and kicking...for now anyway! Hugs, Your Buddy Scarlett

Brandon A Bovine SASS 27688 Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 Add me to the list that is glad to hear you are still alive and well, hope to see you sometime this year.
Uncle Ethan # 94321 Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 Glad to hear you are still with us. To paraphrase Mark Twain “The reports of your death are greatly exaggerated.”
Preacherman Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 I can verify that he ain't dead as I see'd him for real last month, unless this is an update or a web villain causin' trouble. Hope to see you again next week, will verify. Oh, locals should come to Punta Gorda to our annual match and verify for your own self. 8 great stages and food, ice cream!

Yes, but how do we know that you are really you vouching for him really being him?
Preacherman Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 Wow! Good point as I am cleaver. I guess that you'll have come to Florida and find out! Nice time to come, 84 degrees and sunny today.
Barkeep Casey Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 I was just in the woods of North Florida a couple weeks ago and had a confirmed sighting of a Waimea. Are you sure he is dead?

Third time this year, with maybe 1/2" of ice coming this weekend.
Tequila Shooter Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 @Dogmeat Dad, SASS #48563L You’re a good son, now get back to work.
Max Payne Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 Who is Waimea? Is he a 3-gun guy or sumpin?

Tn Tombstone Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 Never thought differently, if you had passed I would have felt the disturbance in the FORCE. You do seem to be a little philosophical and zenish lately. Glad you are doing well, I need someone to help pick up the pieces when Creek or I explode on a stage.

Just trying to keep some folks from shoveling dirt on my face before it's time. I'm afraid you and Creek are on your own for this coming BG. The weeds seem quite taller than normal lately.

Four-Eyed Buck,SASS #14795 Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 Dogmeat,A snow blower would help on that drive. That'uns a bit long for hand shoveling. Since it seems to be uphill, a two stage self propelled would be the ticket
