47 years of marriage.. A married couple in their 60s are celebrating their 47th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant in Florence, Italy.  Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table. She said, 'For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.' The wife answered, 'Oh, I want to travel around the world  with my darling husband  The husband thought for a moment: 'Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me.'  The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish! So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!... The husband became 92 years old.    The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful bas$tard$ should remember fairies are female..

I thought they said Drones where in the area but they were not armed drones. Just snooping type was all.............jmho

I think it is a great gesture and it is different but as I have been seeing this year for some reason people are really looking more in the Christmas Spirit than in the past several years. I am hearing a lot more people saying Merry Christmas rather than Happy Holidays. Either one is great to hear but I grew up with it being Merry Christmas & Happy New Years................. :up:  :up:  

WE will never know now will we. The LEO never looked to see what was in the trunk or radioed for assistance from superiors to make the decision to release them.................... :squint: :squint: :squint:

According to the serial number sometime between 1989 and 1997. It replaced the 383 model and about about mid 97 or early 98 They introduced the Bersa Plus models. The capacity of this gun is 13 with 1 in the tube and 12 in magazine and the Plus models is 16 rounds with 1 in the tube and 15 in the Magazine. This gun weighs 27 oz. loaded.  The newer version Plus is lighter by 6 ounces.............. :up:

IMO the Millersville LEO should have radioed for a supervisor and back up before ever doing anything else after learning of the body. He made far to many mistakes to be a good officer as reported by his chief. I can promise you there would have been LEO'S and Supervisors on the scene to make a decision to release the car period if I was the original officer. Now they have no clue were the car is. If it is a bomb you can bet it is by now in a different car and still moving towards it's destination. Now, with that said if it was a bomb and several other officers appeared along with Supervisors we may have had our first suicide car bombing in the United States possibly killing several police officers. I do know that as long as the Muslim is in the White House these people are going to move as fast as possible to make our country unsafe because law enforcement does not want to up set the apple cart. My guess is Obama and his family will not continue to remain in the Continental United States when his term expires. He will go to Hawaii to get out of the way of whats coming...............................jmho

Just an answer to the question:   Obama can use drones anytime he chooses to and he plays by no rules except his own.................jmho

I have been looking for a Bersa Plus for quite some time and this is a Bersa Plus 380 Caliber but it is the original Bersa model 85. It was made before they began calling them Thunders. It is the original version of the Plus offered now. I really love this gun. I got to shot it back about 4 months ago but my buddy didn't want to part with it but decided he would trade it for another gun I had. Even swap....... :up: :up: [URL=http://s218.photobucket.com/user/softbaitmaker/media/Expendable%20projectiles%20machines/Picture037_zps968a73c4.jpg.html][/URL] [URL=http://s218.photobucket.com/user/softbaitmaker/media/Expendable%20projectiles%20machines/Picture036_zpsbd533883.jpg.html][/URL]

Back when they were all still around I worked at Brentwood Shell as a auto mechanic and during that 11 year there I worked on Waylon's cars and his wife Jessie Colter's cars, Hanks jr's cars as both of them lived in Brentwood at the time. I also worked on Naomi Judds 1954 Cadillac she bought from Conway Twitty before his death and Ronnie Milsap's limo's were all serviced there also and I met him a couple times. I had a great job back then. Got to meet a few of the better songwriters that traded there also............. :up: :up:

Those are good but I like Clint Smiths better from Thunder Ranch..............jmho   "Beware the man who only has one gun. He probably knows how to use it!" "An armed man will kill an unarmed man with monotonous regularity." "A reporter did a human-interest piece on the Texas Rangers. The reporter recognized the Colt Model 1911 the Ranger was carrying and asked him 'Why do you carry a 45?' The Ranger responded, 'Because they don't make a 46.'" "When seconds count, the cops are just minutes away." "I carry a gun cause a cop is too heavy." "The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defense. The sword is more important than the shield, and skill is more important than either. The final weapon is the brain. All else is supplemental." "You cannot save the planet. You may be able to save yourself and your family." "You have the rest of your life to solve your problems. How long you live depends on how well you do it." "You can say 'stop' or 'alto' or use any other word you think will work but I've found that a large bore muzzle pointed at someone's head is pretty much the universal language." "Don't shoot fast, shoot good." "If you carry a gun, people will call you paranoid. That's ridiculous. If I have a gun, what in the hell do I have to be paranoid for." "If you're not shootin', you should be loadin'. If you're not loadin, you should be movin', if you're not movin', someone's gonna cut your head off and put it on a stick." "Make your attacker advance through a wall of bullets. I may get killed with my own gun, but he's gonna have to beat me to death with it, cause it's gonna be empty." "Don't forget, incoming fire has the right of way." "Every time I teach a class, I discover I don't know something." "The two most important rules in a gunfight are: always cheat and always win." "The handgun would not be my choice of weapon if I knew I was going to a fight. ...I'd choose a rifle, a shotgun, an RPG or an atomic bomb instead."  

If they are looking for mentally challenged they might want to begin at the source of such a request.............jmho

I spend money in my local Kroger at least 5-7 times a month and always have 200 + fuel points each month and I am always armed concealed............. :up: :up:

Ok, because my post created such a discussion on it that I thought I would call my friend and ask him a few questions. He cleared up his reasoning for why he taught his wife as he did and why she does not carry a larger caliber hand gun. His wife is 5ft.0in. tall and weighs a hefty 102 lbs. She has weak wrists and the 22lr Semi auto she used and uses is about all she can handle safely. She also had an issue when trying to shoot center mass rounds and hitting there because she always ending up shooting high in the head or neck area or missing the target all together. He decided to teach her to shoot low so when the bullet went it would be more center mass. Well, it worked to a point. She was hitting the target on a regular basis from the groin area to the Naval area and sometimes above the naval. Which a lot of practice he had her hitting in an area he felt she would be able to defend herself with using the 22lr.   He also thought there would never come a time she would ever need to use it but he was thrilled to hear she was ok when the call came in to meet her and the officers at Goodlettesville police department. Another witness said he saw the car the other bad guy took off in and followed it and got tag number and the other bad guy was also caught 45 minutes later. The officer said he would have to keep the weapon till they could run a ballistics and then it would be returned. She was able to pick up her gun 2 days later. She did not hit the bad guy directly in the groin but 2 rounds she fired were 2.7 and 2.1 inches above his actual groin(private parts) but he went down like a ton of bricks two other witnesses stated and set in screaming. They said the reason she did shoot low and not let the gun jump striking higher was because of adrenal which allowed her to hold the gun more on target.   Hope this explains more about why he taught her the way he did and it did very possibly save her life because the bad guy did have a switch blade knife in his hand and it was open with his prints on it....................... :ugh: :ugh:

Well, I know it sounds like a bad move on her and her hubby's part but with a 22lr caliber when the person has any size to them a person is limited to areas that will put them down. The police said that she did what she had to do and did well. I myself, am a center mass shooter. 3 center of chest and if they don't go down they get more rounds till they do........................jmho

I have heard of many people being shot in the head and not stopped. You can stop a bad guy really quick with a 22lr caliber if you know where to put the bullets. I had a buddy's wife get approached by two bad guys in the Rivergate Mall Parking lot on night. She wheeled around with her 22 Cal pistol and pointed it at them. They said you won't shoot and began towards her and she put to fast rounds in the groin area of the first one and he went down fast rolling in pain and screaming. The second one broke and ran. He husband told her where to shoot  and took her out with a shooting dummy and she practiced to where at about 15 feet she was dead on. Bullet placement is priority 1 in my mind..........................jmho

If any President had done all the damage to our great nation of America as he has done any President like that would be terrified to walk out of the White House with out the kind of protection he has. It is costing TAX PAYERS 3.5 times as much for his security as it has any other President in American history. If I can find the link to a site I read in the article it said that Obama has his own special security force of Hand picked people that actually spy on his Secret Service personnel to make sure someone in side is not planning to remove him. They are in the secret service like moles. Obama is constantly adding and removing people he thinks he cannot trust. The man is totally and completely Paranoid and I think he has all rights to be. He has made enemies of most  natural born Red Blooded Americans. He also knows the the American Military hates him. I don't think our Armed Forces have ever hated a Commander-N-Chief. Even though Bush put them in to wars they still had total respect for him. I wonder 1 thought most of all. Once this guy leaves office I know he will still have Secret Service as all Presidents do but it is the Congress that pays the bill for that. I'm guessing that his amount of security will be no more than any other Ex President so I am hoping he has to spend huge amount of his own money if he wants more Security. I bet he will be 10 times as paranoid about security once he is gone from the White House....................jmho 

They would vote for Republicans also if they were doing what the Demorats are doing. They don't care about which party is willing to give all the stuff Obama and the rats are. All they want is the free ride..................jmho

Now I'm not saying this may be why he is so desperate to make illegals legal? Is there is an out side chance that he might be an illegal Immigrant too. I mean no one has really seen any information to the fact or really seen proof that he is a legal American citizen since all of his personal records are sealed to the American people and he thinks Americans are so gullible that they will just take his word for it. What has been leaked really shows more against him than for him. He applied under a Foreigner  grant scholarship and got it to attend college. To do that he would have had to provide the paperwork proving he was not an American citizen.   He has not been able to provide a valid Birth Certificate but has provided a couple fake ones that we proven to be fake. He is using a Social Security issued in Connecticut but never lived in Connecticut which means he is committing fraud. That has been authenticated that the number was issued in a state he never lived in.      Back during his first term while Michelle was doing an interview she was talking about a trip the first family had planned that would be a trip to Africa. She clearly said that Barrack was looking very forward to returning to Kenya, his birth place?????? he funny part about that was it was a live interview so it could not be edited out before 1000's of Americans saw and heard it. That was the first and last live interview the First Lady was allowed to have. Now everything she does on TV is filmed and cleaned up before showing.    In all honesty I often wonder if it was a Republican doing everything Obama has done at what point would he been impeached and arrested for treason. After all, he is the first and only President to hide everything about his past back before making his bid for the White House?..........................................jmho

Yea, my son is coming up and he had to re route around the city also and he works on Nolensville Road and I think that is Obama's destination. Some Big Immigrant church or something like that. I have to agree with ugly on the waste of AIR. He takes in good air and spews out hot contaminated air that only a very small part of anyone I know wants to hear................jmho

Back when you could book Hog trips in Catoosa Wildlife management my little brother carried a Ruger Blackhawk and two years in a row he bagged a hog with 1 shot. Once from the ground and once from up a tree where the hog put him and that shot was straight down through top of hogs head and out the throat. Then they closed the hunts down. Now with that said I have several buddies that big game pistol hunt and several of them are shooting these. I noticed that no one mentioned them. Any particular reason why they have gone unmentioned in any posts? Inquiring mind wants to know. Taurus M44 44 Mag or M444 Raging Bull 44 mag.

Congrads and she is beautiful. Another one of GODS most magnificent gifts has arrived for Christmas............ :up:  :up: 

IMHO I am kind of disappointed with your boss. He should have been proud of you for taking the time to make a customer happy with a product they purchased from his establishment. It will surely result in that person coming back again. It will also result in new customers from word of mouth from a happy customer. Vero surely had a very good point about standing behind what you sell and working out a program with your boss..............jmho  

The Box Under Bill & Hillary's Bed   When Bill and Hillary first got married Bill said, "I am putting a box under the bed.   You must promise never to look in it." In all their 30 years of marriage, Hillary never looked. On the afternoon of their 30th anniversary, curiosity got the best of her and she lifted the lid and peeked inside. In the box were 3 empty beer cans and $8,874.25 in  cash. She closed the box and put it back under the bed. Now that she knew what was in the box, she was doubly curious as to why there even was such a box with such contents. That evening, they were out for a special anniversary dinner. After dinner, Hillary could no longer contain her curiosity and she confessed, saying, "I am so sorry, Bill.  For all these years, I kept my promise and never looked into the box under our bed. However, today the temptation was too much and I gave in. But now I need to know, why do you keep the 3 beer cans in the box?" Bill thought for a while and said, "I guess after all these years you deserve to know the truth. Whenever I was unfaithful to you, I put an empty beer can in the box under the bed to remind myself not to do it again." Hillary was shocked, but said, "Hmmm, Jennifer, Paula and Monica. I am very disappointed and saddened by your behavior. However, since you are addicted to sex I guess it does happen and I guess 3 times is not that bad considering your problem." Bill thanked her for being so understanding. They hugged and made their peace. A little while later Hillary asked Bill, "So why do you have all that money in the box?" Bill answered: "Well, whenever the box filled up with empty cans, I took them to the recycling center and redeemed them for cash."  

Prayers and condolences and very sorry for your loss Dave. Prayers will be for helping you get through this very hard time.....

A very good old friend of mine just sent me this............... :up: :up:   THE BACK NINE I FIRST STARTED READING THIS EMAIL & WAS READING FAST UNTIL I REACHED THE THIRD SENTENCE. I STOPPED AND STARTED OVER READING SLOWER AND THINKING ABOUT EVERY WORD. THIS EMAIL IS VERY THOUGHT PROVOKING. MAKES YOU STOP AND THINK. READ SLOWLY!  AND THEN IT IS WINTER  You know ... time has a way of moving quickly and catching you unaware of the passing years. It seems just yesterday that I was young, just married and embarking on my new life with my mate. Yet in a way, it seems like eons ago, and I wonder where all the years went. I know that I lived them all. I have glimpses of how it was back then and of all my hopes and dreams. But, here it is... the back nine of my life and it catches me by surprise...How did I get here so fast? Where did the years go and where did my youth go? I remember well seeing older people through the years and thinking that those older people were years away from me and that I was only on the first hole and the back nine was so far off that I could not fathom it or imagine fully what it would be like.  But, here it is...my friends are retired and getting gray...they move slower and I see an older person now. Some are in better and some worse shape than me...but, I see the great change...Not like the ones that I remember who were young and vibrant...but, like me, their age is beginning to show and we are now those older folks that we used to see and never thought we'd become. Each day now, I find that just getting a shower is a real target for the day! And taking a nap is not a treat anymore... it's mandatory! Cause if I don't on my own free will... I just fall asleep where I sit! And so...now I enter into this new season of my life unprepared for all the aches and pains and the loss of strength and ability to go and do things that I wish I had done but never did!! But, at least I know, that though Im on the back nine, and I'm not sure how long it will last...this I know, that when it's over on this earth...it's over. A new adventure will begin! Yes, I have regrets. There are things I wish I hadn't done...things I should have done, but indeed, there are many things I'm happy to have done. It's all in a lifetime. So, if you're not on the back nine yet...let me remind you, that it will be here faster than you think. So, whatever you would like to accomplish in your life please do it quickly! Don't put things off too long!! Life goes by quickly. So, do what you can today, as you can never be sure whether youre on the back nine or not! You have no promise that you will see all the seasons of your life...so, live for today and say all the things that you want your loved ones to remember...and hope that they appreciate and love you for all the things that you have done for them in all the years past!! "Life" is a gift to you. The way you live your life is your gift to those who come after. Make it a fantastic one. LIVE IT WELL! ENJOY TODAY! DO SOMETHING FUN! BE HAPPY ! HAVE A GREAT DAY Remember "It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver. LIVE HAPPY IN 2015! LASTLY, CONSIDER THIS: ~Your kids are becoming you......but your grandchildren are perfect! Going out is good.. Coming home is better! You forget names.... But it's OK because some people forgot they even knew you!!! You realize you're never going to be really good at anything like golf. The things you used to care to do, you aren't as interested in anymore, but you really do care that you aren't as interested. You sleep better on a lounge chair with the TV 'ON' than in bed. It's called "pre-sleep". You miss the days when everything worked with just an "ON" and "OFF" switch.. You tend to use more 4 letter words ... "what?"..."when?"... ??? You notice everything they sell in stores is "sleeveless"?!!! What used to be freckles are now liver spots. Everybody whispers. You have 3 sizes of clothes in your closet.... 2 of which you will never wear.  But Old is good in some things: Old Songs, Old movies, and best of all, OLD FRIENDS!! Stay well, "OLD FRIENDS!" Send this on to other "Old Friends!" and let them laugh in AGREEMENT!!! It's Not What You Gather, But What You Scatter That Tells What Kind Of Life You Have Lived. TODAY IS THE OLDEST YOU'VE EVER BEEN; YET THE YOUNGEST YOU'LL EVER BE, SO ENJOY THIS DAY WHILE IT LAST  Do Not Regret Growing Older. It is a Privilege Denied to Many.
