  1. Don’t bother Surly with stuff like this when we are in spiritual winter. Now is the time to lash out and gnash teeth.
  2. At least he placed out of all courses and can focus entirely on hitting the portal when he realizes his mistake.
  3. Is there a notion that pauper’s graves / potter’s fields are unique to MS? Is there outrage because the site is close to a jail work farm and there is a Brubaker connotation? I know that it is ghastly and incomprehensible to most of us. How can a county not notify relatives? How can relatives lose track of their relations? I’ve had the same thoughts myself. Somebody’s final resting place is in a spot marked by an iron rod and a number. (The tweet said “unmarked” graves while the attorney(s) mentioned they were marked….click bait?) That’s how it’s done for the unclaimed or unidentifiable. This doesn’t mean the individual died in police custody (but, of course, it could). They aren’t cremated so they can be recovered if later claimed. They are usually in individual pine boxes and not one big hole all together with no coffins. Regarding the charge that next of kin weren’t notified, let’s get real. Is that an accusation or a fact? It’s possible that Hinds County did nothing. It’s also possible the notified parties did nothing. We’re talking Mississippi residents and government workers. Who knows? Every major city, most counties and some smaller cities have potter’s fields. NYC has Hart Island and is the largest in the country. It went on tilt during COVID. It is weird and ghoulish and possibly ripe for some abuse. MS’s earned reputation hasn’t won it any passes when incidents like this occur. In no way am I laughing this off. Potter’s fields are gruesome and unseemly necessity and incomprehensible to most of us.

  5. I was there. HS senior year. Fab Tbirds and ZZ Top on the bill. Lots and lots of Mick look alikes crawled out of the wood pile and roamed the crowd. I had no clue there was such a subculture. A few were dead ringers.
  6. Regarding looks, absolutely. Battle scars, whisky dents, gun oil stains, the travel and blood that goes into the lore of an old rifle is what’s important. Would you rather have a pristine guitar or Willie Nelson’s Trigger?
  7. Finishes mean nothing to me when taking the shot. Action, machining, fitting the barrel to the action, barrel, type of barrel, rifling and proper scope to mount fit and glass bed / float mean everything. A pretty walnut stock, while nice, won’t deliver accuracy and consistency.
  8. Gerry had problems in San Antonio
  9. Suppressors for should be strongly encouraged in the USofA with no barriers to acquisition.
  10. Dude. He’s 22 years old. When I was 22 I would have answered every question with “pussy, beer, weed, pizza, I did?, No shit? and Wasn’t me!
