True, it's been said time and again
in the past, but then, our country
has never been so screwed up
before, either ! This administration
is WAY too far 'left' for me - it
smacks of real 'socialism', and
even though they haven't (and may never) come for our guns, they sure have made ammo scarce, more expensive and difficult to find since the Obama regime took over !

Can't speak for anyone else, but this old dog is not fooling himself, nor is he easily fooled by others ! IF they come, I'm no longer in a position to put up much of a struggle (only got one little 'pea-shooter' .25 cal. semi-auto left), but I won't be giving it up !

Like the old saying goes - "I will give up my gun(s) when they pry it (them)
from my cold, dead fingers !"
(Better DEAD than RED !)
Wouldn't want to live under
that type of regime, anyway !

Hopefully, this country will get
turned around and return to
common sense (with more
'common sense' people in
charge) before it gets to that
point !

Hmmm ! Let's see - we've got St. Paddy's Day, a leprechaun, and
a big, green dog - I'm guessing
Irish Wolfhound ?

'And if so, you'd better be a better
shot than me or bring lots of friends with ammo !'

Yeah, it does ! The chili burns your
butt, and the methane from your fumes would also burn it ! Ever seen anyone do 'pyro-flatulence', where someone lights one up ?

If you've never seen it done and
want a good laugh, watch the restaurant scene from the movie
'The Klumps', where they nearly
(accidentally) burn it down !

Conversion would be way too
pricey for my budget - would be cheaper(and make more sense)
to discard the buffoon responsible
for this new runaway inflation, especially where gas and food
are concerned !

This country will never be normal again unless/until the current
powers-that-be' are removed/
replaced by people with a lot
more common sense !

They can try to prove it, but won't
have much luck - my gas is MY GAS
(read PETROL), so how can they
claim proprietary rights to anything
I produce ?

Man, how much money could
I save if I could convert last night's chili into today's petrol for my truck, especially at current gas prices !

Although it mostly applied to
criminals (the Mob ?), some
people (like 'Lucky' Luciano) were declared 'undesirables' and deported after the war, even after they helped keep our docks clear of spies/ saboteurs ! Seems to me some of
the recent activities/policies of the current administration should easily qualify as un- or anti-American !

Where to deport them to ? How
about Tierra del Fuego, or some
really remote island in the middle
of the Indian Ocean ? How about some Gulag in Siberia ? Doesn't
really matter where, as long as
they can do no further damage
to our beloved country !

You may be right ! Although I don't
specifically remember it, it's very
likely that they would have
something like that - pretty sure
they've had a 'jackalope' or two in
the past, as well ! They always
were my favorite 'toy' store !
Probably 60% (or more) of my
guns were purchased there !

Good tune ! I like a lot of his music,
but my favorite 'Meatloaf' tune is
'Paradise by the Dashboard Lights',
as it so strongly parallels my own experience with the 'ex' back when
we were dating !

The problem begins at the top ! Get
rid of the riff-raff currently ruining
our country (instead of running it)
and replace them with 'common sense' folk who can return us to
some semblance of sanity !

If the current 'powers that be' are
the biggest cause of our problem, then we should eliminate the
problem by removing the cause, however it needs to be done !

If it means they get tar and feathers, turned to chum or used as 'gator
bait, who cares ? Desperate times
call for desperate measures, and many of us are desperate to see
our country 'back on track' again !
Eliminate the vermin and the
problem is more than half-way
solved !

(Wh**ever happened to our country's policy of deporting folk for un-American and/or anti-American activities ? Surely, many policies carried out by the current administration should qualify ? Why are they still here, and still in power ?)

Just don't light up while
standing at the pump !

A trout with a beaver pelt - damn lake water gets pretty cold that deep and that far north - they need that extra insulation !

A beaver that smells like a fish ?
Are you referring to my 'ex' ?

I have no compunctions about
using it on any ground vehicle
or water craft, but at 30,000 feet ?
Five miles is a lo-o-o-ong drop if something goes wrong up there !

Have always been pretty daring
and have survived more than
a few stupid stunts, but I never
pushed my luck if I thought the
odds were against me ! The odds against surviving a five-mile drop
are astronomical, so I'll pass !
