There isn’t such thing as a Marlin 10/22. Marlin Model 60 might be more like it.
>>I SEND MONEY TO THE SENATE CONSERVATIVES FUND AND EACH CANDIDATE THEY SUPPORT.>>
Oh, thank you. Now I can remove all the candidates that clutter up my email and my mailbox.
Gimme me a break. I got a headache right now and I barely made it typing that whole thing out....
I live with my competitors for 18 years.
Five in all or six including me. I’m the oldest.
Sometimes I remember stuff for random reasons.
I stole the joke about being single and pregnant from brother.
He was 15 and was about to get the strap from my Mom for something or other. Must have been bad if she was going to let his have it with the strap and not the board or maybe it was just handy, who knows.
So he’s bent over waiting to take his three swats and he turns with his Shiite eating grin and says to my Mom “Could be worse”
She said “I don’t see how”
So smiles and says “Well, I’m 15 and single. If I was pregnant we’d be looking at another mouth to feed real soon”.
Mom ended up laughins so hard, like the kind when you lose any muscle grip in your hands and he wouldn’t stop with the jokes.
Everytime she tried to regain control and reassert her Mom-ness he said something else funny.
We were all laughing hard and he was just clowning.
Got to the point she said “Fooey. I give up”.
So we’re sitting there eating Sunday fried chicken, Mash Potato/Gravy and green beans(My favorite!) and every time she looks up at him she’s laughing and he starts to form the words to whatever joke is now in his head.
She tells “Don’t or you go to bed with no dinner”.
Here’s the gross part.
So he’s trying to eat, we’re all trying to eat and everyone is chuckling.
He looks up at me, I raise my eyebrow and give him that “Do it” look and he looses it.
He blows his food and brains through his nose and all over his plate.
Disgusting right? Well, yeah but, funny as hell.
So my Mom gets up, walks over to him and grabs his plate.
He looks up and grabs it back and like a little girl goes “No”
My Mom says “Yes” as she starts to laugh.
He starts laughing and in an even higher pitch says “No” again, like a little girl.
I lose it and start laughing then everyone starts laughing.
My Mom then says “Oh, shit” just starts laughing and pulls the plate up and over his head and then dumps it on him.
He’s laughing and we’re all laughing.
Mom says, like a little girl “I’m the Mom around here...eat” but, she can’t stop laughing.
So now she tells him to stand up behind his chair but, no one can stop laughing.
So he takes off his shirt and says something about needing to lose weight for wrestling anyway and the girls like touching his six pack.
He then poses like Arnold and moves from lame pose to lame and we can’t stop laughing.
So my Mom tells him to go get a clean shirt, come back in and get some food and there isn’t any TV tonight as we’ve been entertained enough tonight.
To this day no one remembers why he was going to get the spanking but, it’s a funny family story and my sister can tell it way better than me and she will have people in stitches like my other sister...
He never got the spanking and I’ve co-opted that joke in one form or another since.
It works for infection. kills the germs which cause it.
What I think may have been minor heart attack part? --- I'm glad that part is over. I doubt oregano could have cured that. All I had was some ibuprofen "pm". took a couple to put myself asleep. In a recliner. Couldn't lay down it hurt too much...
It’s not fair that you’re raising money for a 3rd party, and I haven’t been invited to the first two.
It’s from grinding my teeth when I sleep.
Only thing that fixes it is less caffeine and using the right night guard.
I will tonight...
Great advice. From now on I will take it.
I’m usually a good judge of character as well,sometimes you get fooled,not often but it happens.
The FR firearms police never sleep. :)
Sorry you’re feeling poorly, hope it passes quickly my FRiend.
I think I’ll be fine.
I’ve mostly pushed it back and thankfully it’s dark now.
I’m thinking maybe I just lay on the floor and let the dogs sleep on my feet and the other next to my ribs.
That should help.
Lil pigs...
I remember it happening years ago but not recently. Something come up recently?
I think I remember reading that one...
I laffed my head off at lowbridges handling of them.
Good on you, lowbridge!
Thanks for this reminder Jim. And thanks for pointing out the benefits of prayer requests. FR has daily prayer threads!!! I know we have a dedicated crew who pray for the names on that thread.
Thanks, Jim. Agreed. And Lucy, thanks for the ping.
All your identities are belong to me. I have San Antonio Spurs playoff tickets to buy whilst you are at the gun range enjoying yourself.
Oh, wait. That already happened.
Never mind.
When someone writes the *Book of FR*.....There will be a chapter devoted to that whole hilarious incident. Lowbie had us on the edges of our seats....waiting for the next round! Classic!
I agree, but I sure wouldn’t want to remove them myself!
That’s a good link.
BTW eeeef you send me a $100 I can help you. I vill spend it and think of you in good vays.
Seriously I’m glad to see this policy spelled out.
I learned that lesson the hard way!
