Here is one I heard years ago, used the internet to find it copy and paste. *** There were three preachers: a Catholic, a Baptist, and a rabbi. They are all fishing out in the lake when all of a sudden the Baptist has to go to the bathroom. So he gets up and walks across the water, does his business, and comes back. Then all of a sudden the rabbi has to go, so he gets up and walks across the water, does his business, and comes back. Then the Catholic has to go, but when he gets out he falls into the water, so he swims back, gets back into the boat, looks up, and says, ''God, let me walk across the water.'' Then he tries again and falls into the water, so he swims back, tries again and he falls again. The Baptist leans over to the rabbi and says, ''Do you think we should tell him where the stepping stones are?''

Mysterious Missile Launched over Southern California coast...

True, other hand. I think it was these guys -
That is how I take it, as others like Ohshoot and others have pointed out here and in other threads. BTW we did go in and did have a good time. As my wife pointed out, anything can be a weapon, an Ink Pen can be used as a weapon. I do not think of my firearm as a weapon, I think of it as a self defense tool. Just for myself and not to every flash for a business. I am going to print me a little card that I can carry in my wallet with that part of the law. I am not as legal savvy as I wish I was, which is probably why I decided against going to law school. I did consider it at one point, however I found I just wanted to go argue cases, I did not want to really study the law. As we started the trip, as it was a day out for my wife, I decided I was going to make the day about her and not let my political views ruins it for her. I expected to run into allot more posted places then we did., however that was the only one.

Before I enhance any steak with anything after it comes off the grill, at home or a restaurant. I have to taste it first. Any steak should be able to pass a taste test with out anything added first. (talking beyond salt, pepper or anything it is cooked with) I have no problems with enhancements as I am known to over do it myself, however I normally put that off to the side so I can have some with out as well.

Nope, it is always on a Sunday morning, Because if you forget you are either early or late for Church. As a kid, I remember using it as an excuse to be late for Church once a year, it only worked in the spring with the spring forward, never in the fall.

Funny, my wife wants at much heat in chilli or other food as can be put in it. Today was the first time she or I ever tried anything with ghost peppers. We both handled it but even she admitted it was hot. She likes to let on she can take any hot food. Myself, I am more of a lite weight in that area but dang if I was going to pass it up. My tongue still feels the ghost peppers right now from about 4 p.m. I swear I still have a spot on my tongue that still bothers me right now.

Just another Public service I do.

A new priest at his first mass was so nervous he could hardly speak. After mass he asked the monsignor how he had done. The monsignor replied, " When I am worried about getting nervous on the pulpit, I put a glass of vodka next to the water glass. If I start to get nervous, I take a sip." So next Sunday he took the monsignor's advice. At the beginning of the sermon, he got nervous and took a drink. He proceeded to talk up a storm. Upon his return to his office after the mass, he found the following note on the door: 1) Sip the vodka, don't gulp. 2) There are 10 commandments, not 12. 3) There are 12 disciples, not 10. 4) Jesus was consecrated, not constipated. 5) Jacob wagered his donkey, he did not bet his ass. 6) We do not refer to Jesus Christ as the late J.C. 7) The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not referred to as Daddy, Junior and the spook. 8) David slew Goliath, he did not kick the sh*t out of him. 9) When David was hit by a rock and was knocked off his donkey, don't say he was stoned off his ass. 10) We do not refer to the cross as the "Big T." 11) When Jesus broke the bread at the last supper he said, "take this and eat it for it is my body." He did not say " Eat me" . 12) The Virgin Mary is not called "Mary with the Cherry",. 13) The recommended grace before a meal is not: Rub-A-Dub-Dub thanks for the grub, Yeah God. 14) Next Sunday there will be a taffy pulling contest at St. Peter's not a peter pulling contest at St. Taffy's.

I know it is in general Off topic some place but I can not search it to find it right now. Maybe I have had 1,2,3,4, or 5 to many Holy Grail Ales tonight. However I want to find the thread that was posted about what happens when gun control happens. I remember allot of details about the thread and I am sure I am searching for things that are not exactly in the thread which is why I am not finding it. If I remember correctly it started with examples of when Germany took away guns, and other countries in other years took away guns and how countless people ended up being killed or lets say Culled in those countries.' I was certain it even went up to the cambodian genocide.

How late is the show going on Sunday? I have to work until 4 pm, I have a feeling I won't be able to make it.

Welcome aboard.

I have my Judge in reach(lets say near the night stand) with buckshot. I have 5 rounds there. Sure it cost a bit more then what you are looking at but 2 shots might be enough. Like the song says, currently my home is protect by the Good Lord and a Gun. I have also taken steps to make certain my wife knows how to access/fire every loaded gun.

Looks like a pistol to me. ' It shoots the same ammo as my Judge. I might be adding that to my wish list, since I already by ammo that works in it.

HCP range requirements. I can't remember...
vontar replied to aquaman67's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
Yup, ask anyone here I worried about it far more then I should have. I even went out and brought a couple of the test targets and built me a hanger for them, shot them up and posted pictures asking if it would pass. My target in the class was far better. I planned taking the class about a year before I could. I was about to take it then my wife got laid off from work so I had to put it on the back burner for almost a year. During that year I went out and shot about once a month making sure I was proficient with the pistol I planned to test with. Then I obsessed over the numbers which was really unnecessary. Since you are already helping your friend, do what I am now doing with my wife. Work the basics. I am teaching her proper gun handing, making sure she knows what to do if there is a problem with the gun. Still working on proper grip and aim but she would past the shooting part right now I think. The torso is a big target at 3 and 7 yards. As I understand you can miss everything at 15 and still pass as long as you do well at 3 and 7. 48 rounds total I do not know if there is a standard of not as to the distances per shots., some at each distance. My class was something like 3 yrds 6 rounds Fire called by instructor 7 yrds 6 round Fire called by instructor 15 yrds 6 rounds Fire called by instructor 3 yrds 6 rounds Begin by instructor, then continue at your pace 7 yrds 6 round Begin by instructor, then continue at your pace 15 yrds 6 rounds Begin by instructor, then continue at your pace 6 more rounds I don't remember how we where told to fire them or the distance but the last 6 I certainly remember. 3 yrds and as fast as we could, while aiming For a total of 48 rounds. It was the first time I had ever been part of a firing line and I have to say it was fun and something I want to do again sometime -
BTW, I just can't eat onions. Sometimes I feel like the only person in TN that can't eat onions. Many things as a kid I wouldn't eat because of lets say pure pressure from other kids, like beans. I never had a problem with the taste of beans but you know how kids are. I now love beans. I eat my fruits and veg along with my meat. However, I will be dammed if I am going to eat onions. I swear there must be something wrong with me, my wife has tried to trick me and put just very small amounts of onion in large amounts of food and I find it. She has even just sliced an onion before then cut something with the same knife and I knew it. It is like I am hyper sensitive to onions. Long story but last time I ate something that had onions, lets just say I lost my cookies about 15 minutes later.

I am going to be trying to grow some. I brought 2 planters. You can get them in Gatlinburg at the Pepper Palace, I was there today and by dipping a chip in some sauce made from my wife and I both earned I brought 2 planters to try to grow some and a bottle of the sauce. BTW, they really are no joke, they are loaded with capsaicin. They are about 3 times as hot as a Habanero. There is a scale for how hot peppers are, How Hot Are Chile Peppers? | Scoville Heat Scale | Chile Heat Scale | Capsaicin Scoville Units They are the HOTTEST peppers out there, the only thing that seems hotter is some of the pepper sprays.

what is on your adult beverage menu for the evening?
vontar replied to Mike.357's topic in General Chat
Stepped in the Leaf and Ale tonight, was looking for one thing and they did not have it, however my wife wanted to try something else they had so tonight we are drinking. It is different. Not bad, but not something I would run out of my way for either. I can't really describe the taste though, for the price I won't be drinking more of it. Really tried it because we liked the movie. Seen it to many times to count. -
a true understanding.

Remember, set your clocks back tonight. Fall Back

A co worker brought some of that to work around Thanksgiving one year, it was horrible. I tried a couple of them. I know he poured them in cups to max out the spread and they where all horrible, even the Turkey. I can't image they would even get bacon right. I think Jones Soda could mess up anything.

Better be careful talking about a Chilli cook off. I have just recently got into cooking chilli, getting ready for potlucks at work and I am warning you guys. I have a creation I am just waiting to test on someone. I even have a name for it. I call it, Bear Mace Chilli. Last week I made some, even with out the ghost peppers and rubbed my eyes hours later after washing my hands several times and still Maced myself. BTW, I just came from the Pepper Palace Gatlinburg TN Today where I should be posted on the Wall of Flame. However they said they are about 2 months behind on getting people posted, so my wife and I should be posted in about 2 months they said.
