Hello zeebah neighba

[The Cajun]

Great vid!

I'll single hand my .44 Redhawk and .44 Blackhawk, but when I shoot a buddy's .454 Super Redhawk, it's strictly two handed and that's usually followed by a grimace.

That is not a go out and plink all day gun, LOL.

Well you save ammo on those sort of guns.

!5 shots and yer all tuckered out.

Yeah, that's the one. "Palmetto bug" is, of course, a euphemism to sugar coat the reality:

"A cockroach species commonly called a “palmetto bug” is the American cockroach (Periplaneta americana). Adult American cockroaches are large and winged. Their coloration is dark brown with a cream-colored prothorax that has dark markings that resemble sunglasses. American cockroaches prefer damp conditions and often are found in sewers, woodpiles and mulch. They will fly to lights. This particular behavior is disconcerting[NO KIDDING!!] for homeowners who encounter a large roach that flies near their face when entering doors with lights nearby in the evening."

Or, as I said as a young child when confronted with the nasty thing (3"? 3'?) that suddenly launched itself at me, "#@@%^%%&*$!! It FLIES?!?!?!?!?!" It was the ultimate insult!

First time I encountered one of those big, Southern hissing cockroaches, I sprayed it with roach killer. The bastard shrugged it off like he was a linebacker, hissed, and charged me.

This formerly Northern boy, new to the South, screamed like a little girl and ran.

‘s true. Here we are, big target for any stuff of nightmares. At least we provide a buffer so Georgia et al can sleep at night!

Really...tree-climbing crocs/gators...I don’t even want to consider bridge building in their skill-set.

Ran into some sort of critter in Ca one night sitting around a fire in the Cuyamaca mts, They were like june bugs the size of a golfball or bigger, damn things kept kamikazing in on the fire, would bip you in the head. Never seen anything like it since.

We must offer them land for peace...

I for one welcome our new crocodilian overlords
