gun sane

Sale pending.

The Shield Plus has about 400 rounds through it. You get two S&W 13-round magazines (one new in box) and one 10-round mag for more concealment. Also comes with a Blade-Tech Total Eclipse kydex holster. Asking $450. TGO benefactors preferred for face-to-face sale in Knoxville area.

My high school was so tough, the student newspaper had an obituary column.

God's marvelous grace in action:

Well, the police are trained to be on the lookout for all kinds of nuts.

I'm opening a Two Dollar Store in my town for those who enjoy the finer things.

Super Bowl? Is that the game they play on ice?

What is this? Noo Yawk City?

The wife sees me at the bench pulling the lever handle and believes I'm saving us money. I don't want to confuse her with the facts.

Well, first I've got to be convinced that chickens actually talk better than they taste.

Dang, I'm not sure I want to get a Maryville-made S&W now. A friend of mine almost got hired when they opened the factory here last year but something fell through. I talked with a local gun dealer and he said that there are S&W assembly workers who are only making about $16/hr. My friend got a mechanic's job at a car dealership and is making a lot more than that.

When I turned wrenches for an airline I used @10-Ring's buying philosophy. If I brought a tool out of my box every three or four months, It was probably stamped Made in Taiwan. If I used it every day, I bought the best I could afford, which was probably Snap-On or USA-made Craftsman. Calibrated precision tools were provided by the employer. Being from Texas, the wife and I have a love for Gulf Coast brown shrimp. Most of what you buy in the store here are from Indonesia, Chile or Vietnam. We've had to make several costly trips to Alabama to buy off the boat from an American shrimper. Publix now offers shrimp from Texas so that will save us considerably. Funny thing is, a lot of the catch is probably by a Vietnamese-American crew.

We've still got one in Maryville. Doubles as an outdoor flea market in the winter.

No dopey orange plug, kids!

How about a tax on organic veggies and lattes to stop DEI training in schools?
