  3. Is this actually happening, or is it just some entities saying it could possibly happen? All I’ve read online are warnings by a school district that it could happen at the border checkpoints. If it is a real occurrence then that is certainly a shitty tactic.
  4. It is a quality little rifle. My older brother owns it now.
  5. Buddy Holly's last show, 66 years ago today. That's Waylon Jennings playing bass behind him on the left. An hour and a half after this picture, Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper would be dead.
  6. I wear white socks with Skechers and drawstring shorts.
  7. Unhiinged fantasy.
  8. On a related note…..
  9. My grandpa was a crack shot too. When rheumatic fever caused him to be bed-ridden for a whole year in the late 1890s, his dad gave him a .22 rifle to target shoot out his bedroom window. He became quite proficient, but did get a month time out after his parents came home on their wagon from shopping in town and caught him shooting tin cans off his sister’s head. In his teen years he was banned from the carnival shooting galleries whenever they came to his county periodically because the barkers quickly learned that gangly kid would clean them out of prizes. Anyway, here he is with his last .22 - a Reminigton semiauto that was chambered for shorts only. Lots of squirrels were put on the dinner table:
  10. Oughta throw in a waterfront property big enough for a golf resort.
  11. Better be careful about messin’ with the Canucks…..
  12. Finally scored from the red zone.
  13. He’s too busy banging the office help.
  14. Sometimes it amazes me he’s now a senior VP at a regional banking system and is responsible for overseeing $20 Billion in assets.
  15. Bohemia….. haven’t thought about that brew in decades. While living & going to school in Mexico 64 years ago, my classmates impressed upon me that the guys all drank Bohemia and Carta Blanca was strictly for the women. Dos Equis, Corona, & Tecate were considered donkey piss suitable for the campesinos & pobres.
  16. Santa Anna’s march into East Texas was held up for weeks by the construction at I-35 and Ben White.
  17. What every one else has said. ❤️ Loved your fine tribute to him that appeared in today’s AAS.
  18. Miltary version of the Lockheed Electra? I flew on a commercial passenger from Dallas tonKansas City in 1960.
