Luigi's honeymoon                         After returning from his honeymoon in Florida with his new bride,             Virginia, Luigi stopped by his old barbershop in Jersey to say hello             to his friends.             Giovanni said, "Hey Luigi, how wassa da treep?"             Luigi said, "Everyting wasa perfecto except for da train ride down."             "Whata you mean, Luigi?" asked Giovanni.             "Well, we boarda da train at Grana Central Station.             My beautiful Virginia , she pack a biga basketa food. She bringa             davino, some nice cigars for me, and we were lookina forward to da             trip, and open upa da luncha basket .             The conductore come aby, wagga his finger at us anda say, 'no eat in             disa car. Musta use a dining car..'             So, me and my beautiful Virginia, we go to da dining car, eat a biga             lunch and starta at open da bottle of a nice a vino!             Conductor ewalka by again, waga his finger and say, 'No drinka in disa             car!

So, we go to cluba car.             While a drinkina davino, I starta to lighta my biga cigar.             The conductore, he waga is finger again and say, 'No a smokina in             disa car.

 Three men - a Canadian farmer, a Muslim fanatic and a White Trash Biker are all walking together one day.  They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it.     'I will give each of you one wish, which is three wishes in total', says the Genie.     The Canadian says, 'I am a farmer and my son will also farm. I want the land to be forever fertile in Canada '     POOF! With the blink of the Genie's eye, the land in Canada was forever fertile for farming.     The Muslim was amazed, so he said, 'I want a wall around Afghanistan , Palestine , Iraq and Iran so that no infidels, Americans or Canadians can come into our precious land.'     POOF! Again, with the blink of the Genie's eye, there was a huge wall around those countries.     The Biker says, 'I am very curious.  Please tell me more about this wall.'     The Genie explains, 'Well, it's about 5,000 feet high, 500 feet thick and completely surrounds the countries. Nothing can get in or out;     it's virtually impenetrable.'     The Biker sits down on his Harley, cracks a beer, lights a cigar, smiles and says, 'Fill it with water.'

Clearly we all should have done something about that pesky ammo tax before he showed up.  Who the heck forgot to do that?!?   Trust me, folks, we're going to have a stern discussion about this at this week's meeting.  And whoever keeps leaving the toilet seat up, Marge in Accounting is plenty ticked about that too.

I laughed.     Racism can kiss my a$$.  If it's funny, you laugh.  That's life.  

Dollar Store has toasters on sale right now for 10 bucks.................... :up: :up:

    One of the funniest ironies ever; When Toyota got into NASCAR a few years back.  Every podunk moron I heard was complaining about those GD and MF'ing foreign cars out there with good ole american cars.  Best look ever was their expression when you tell them all the mexican made parts Ford uses, all the Canadian work done with GM.......Camrys???????        Made in Kentucky.    

There were parts of it that made me smile.   Remember when TV was funny without all the potty and sex humor?

Adapt and overcome.   I am left handed, right eye dominant. I learned to shoot right handed. I can shoot a pistol equally well with either hand, but I have always shot a rifle right handed.   My daughter and my wife are unfortunately the exact opposite. They are both right handed and left eye dominant. My daughter started shooting at four or five, and I have taught her since the beginning to shoot left handed rifle and which ever hand she prefers for pistols.    There are a few reasons for this. But the main one is simplicity. Even if some fancy $100 sight mount existed that allowed her to shoulder the rifle right handed and shoot left handed, it would be awkward, and would be required to be moved, or multiple purchased for every gun she shoots. Which would have to be re-zeroed, which would cost more ammo. She would be unable to have any commonality with any other rifle in the home, or at the range unless it was equipped with the fancy device. If the fancy device broke, or was lost, or somehow otherwise became disabled, she would be unable to operate a rifle as she had become dependent on  the device and not her skill and ability to overcome adversity.   In short, make him shoot left handed, and make him get used to it. Sure, that is easy for me to say after 30+ years of shooting right handed, it is natural to me now.    Your other option would be to train his weak eye and force him to use it, but I don't think that would be as viable, or as long term successful as just biting the bullet and learning to shoot left handed. While it is uncomfortable, it is the better solution.   Be positive with it, don't make him feel like a freak, it is a common obstacle, and with proper training it can easily be overcome. If you make it a hassle, or a fuss it could turn him off of shooting and make him feel self conscious. You don't want that, you want what is best for him.    I am not a professional trainer, so take my advice with that disclaimer, but I am a man who learned to shoot cross eye dominant and is successfully teaching a cross eye dominant child.

We can scream and yell until we're blue in the face, but until we get these bums that make the laws out of office, this will become the norm.

LOL   I supervise 12 officers: 2 white females 2 asian males 1 black male 7 white males   HR would go into cardiac arrest if they attended one of our rollcalls. You were in the military...you know what I'm talking about (anyone see the HBO series "Generation Kill"?).  Good natured, equal opportunity cracking, with a bunch of adults not looking to be "offended." I can't think of one that wouldn't run to a gunfight to save the other.

Yea I thought about that. Then I realized, I could go drop the extra $200 on ammo or add some cash and buy a 1911. After these thought, I felt very American again haha.

Well I started to set some of the rivets tonight. All that's left now is to press the barrel on and install the front sight and gas block. [URL=http://s1246.photobucket.com/user/gjohnsoniv/media/0301152344_zpsjvfswlov.jpg.html][/URL]

Do him a favor and teach him to shoot long guns left handed.  If he ever takes up the shotgun/wing shooting he will thank you.  His rifle shooting with aperture sights will also benefit from using his dominate eye and shooting with both eyes open.

If you hate everyone on an equal basis it's hard to be racist.  :)

It crackered me up!

I have old Troybilt Horse and it is still a lot of work after plowing but tilling new ground can be done. I use an solar ele fence for deer but it won't keep coons out. I have to trap and kill then.

I can contest to the durability of the Hilux from being overseas. Growing up my dad had a 95 Tacoma with the near indestructible 2.7. That truck saw more work than most one ton domestic trucks. It eventually got totaled by another Tacoma. I just recently sold my 2013 Tacoma prerunner. While bigger, I just didn't think it was as well built as the first generation Tacomas or pickups.

I thought it was funny. I really don't think the producers of the Dukes Of Hazzard had any kind of racist message or intent when they made the show back then, back then a rebel flag wasn't that much of a big deal as it is nowadays, southern bands like Lynard Skynard and Charlie Daniels Band used to put the flag on their album covers, they were all over the place at NASCAR races. Back in the 70's and 80's many people just viewed the flag as a southern thing, I don't think their intent was to promote racism, (for some people). I am aware it is commonly flown by idiot rasist aryan groups and the KKK but so is the Stars and Stripes. I can see how some black Americans, especially those of age where they grew up in a racist atmosphere in the south would be offended by the flag.

  I wondered about that also. The braces should be on the inside for several reasons. With them on the outside, a group of attackers could use them to climb up the wall to the top and use a rope to get in from the top. The supports could also be removed from outside with no one on the inside being able to see them. With that in mind, maybe you are right about them being there to keep people in for the same reasons. It's definitely strange and is going to play into something bad for the group eventually I think.

As most of you know, Consumer Reports does reports every year that show the brands with the highest levels of reliability and the highest level of brand loyalty. Oddly enough, the least reliable vehicles often have the highest customer loyalty. Not sure what is wrong with people's brains that make them desire vehicles that they won't be able to drive, but I am a Japanese guy through and through. In my garage/driveway you will find a Toyota, a Honda, a Yamaha motorcycle, and a Honda motorcycle. I've done the "fix a car more than you drive it" thing the last time I bought American. Sorry, but I'd rather drive a vehicle than fix it. YMMV. 

  American manufacturers would have nothing on it but people would continue to buy the American trucks, even if they cost three times as much.  These people will undoubtedly be quick to tell you how proud they are of there "American" vehicle and how it will out perform that "Jap crap" even though it won't.  The American trucks will also not be as dependable as their Japanese counterparts.  Ironically Toyota is amongst the "most American" made trucks on the road, meaning that they source more of their parts from America than other companies, Ford rivals them on this but Dodge and Chevy aren't even close. 

Winter sucks. I'm not even counting the days till Spring but the days till Summer instead.

I'm so sick of this crap.

You win the run-on sentence of the day contest! :)

Small price to pay for what we get out of it.                                        PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: Welcome to Tennessee.  We have a certain way of doing things here and for many of us our families have been doing it that way here, for generations.  We don't really care how you did it back where ever you came from.  In case you threw your map away when you got here, I'll happily remind you that interstates 40,24,65,75,81, and 26 will get you back to where you came from or a at least headed that way.  You can check http://maps.google.com for more detailed information concerning your route.

    Pretty much this.    I'm also left handed and right eye dominant.  I grew up shooting right handed guns left handed.  As the astigmatism in my left eye has gotten a little worse, I see better out of my right eye with my contacts.  That combined with the fact that it's basically a right handed world convinced me to switch to shooting right handed.  Being left handed in a right handed world pretty much forces you to be somewhat ambidextrous anyway.  While I'm still more comfortable shooting rifles left handed, the switch isn't that hard.  He'll get used to it. 

I am also right handed and left eye dominant as are my son and grandson.  I've never had a problem with handguns or rifles but shotgun wing shooting has always been a real challenge for me.     As a boy I practiced with BB gun and pellet rifle a lot with the left eye closed and it seemed to work well.     In wing shooting I've never found a good alternative for me.  Both eyes open is about as good as anything and practice enough to compensate for the problem without having to think about it.  Others recommend covering the left eye, etc.     Good luck.

    I will  let you shoot it for yourself, I should have it in May  :up:

I have four different styles of magazines: those without a number, some with a "1", some with a "2", and I have one magazine that has a cursive style "2". None of my 9mm magazines have numbers at all. The numbers are explained here: http://www.glockforum.com/forum/f8/mag-number-3510/

As far as I know only 15 round .40 magazines had the weak springs. If you added an extension to a G17 mag you may experience the same phenomonem. I have about dozen 23 and 22 magazines from police surplus. I will look to see which ones are marked and which are not.

I loved it laughed all the way thrue but like every show i have really enjoyed on fox the last few years it will be canceled at the end of the season

  While carrying a Beretta Mexican style in your butt crack.... :rofl:

As an introvert, I have dreamed of living in a world like this. As a single dude, I about live like that now :D

    I hate selling firearms period, that is for sure, I have a Wilson Combat Beretta 92 on the way however, so I may give  the 9mm a chance for a spell anyway :cool:

Thanks for all the hard work Alan! And Ryan - he probably did some hard work too... :-)

A lot of folks are freaking. M855 doesn`t even shoot as well as other cheaper ammo. I have punched holes in 1/4" mild steel at ( not gonna` say how close range ) with just lead core ammo. I too, don`t respond to panic mode or go ape shtuff anymore. A lot of better rounds out there that are just "Plain Jane" and are more accurate too at the longer distances. I have enjoyed my pellet rifle so far. I can always get ammo for it and it is cheap to "shoot". LOL! Sure does knock varmints for a loop when it hits one. :)

before it is all over you will pay sales tax on everything you buy from the internet.  the governments has to get the money to pay for the bums.  

It's the Amazon effect. All states are getting aggressive about collections. It'll get worse. After all we have all those food programs to fund.

My hunting partners: Rufus, Angel, Roddy and Yoda Buster and Dixie rearranging their bed.... Rufus being good (for once)... Well, those are my babies. Dave

That's what my Mamaw would call a "more dollars than sense " gun lol I could see one of those in the next Expendables movie lol Stalone one handing it with a 50cal on the other arm.

10 lbs of stupid in a 5 lb sack

Yea...But that's why the stats guy gets paid the big bucks.... It's also better to keep him busy during the walk though and give him less time for gaming the stages.... Lol...:-)

I can see it now. A giant ship equipped only with vacuum pumps. It can sail around the middle east sucking up to Muslims .
