This is true. I was the first to post about Fast & Furious and he accused me of spreading disinformation and conspiracy theories. Being me, I wouldn't let it go and he threatened to ban me. It pissed me off enough to take the time and re-read the rules.
When our governing officials dismiss due process as mere semantics, when they exercise powers they don’t have and ignore duties they actually bear, and when we let them get away with it, we have ceased to be our own rulers.
he KOed the home invader by pistol whipping him with a 1911. Epic thread on that one. He was also a bronze star awarded Special Forces Vietnam veteran. Hope he is OK.
I remember that thread very well. About the same time it occurred I had a similar incident where a crackhead walked into my house and found himself caught between my very PO'd Hound Dog and my 12 gauge. I ended up turning him over to police, only to see him released and arrested three more times over the next couple weeks over prowling indicents at my neighbors homes.
Tell Gunnyragg I said Hi! What town is his shop in?
David's shop is Iron Goat Guns in Quannah Tx. I understand that he does a lot of business in Suppressors and other Class 3 items.
..........he accused me of spreading disinformation and conspiracy theories. Being me, I wouldn't let it go and he threatened to ban me. It pissed me off enough to take the time and re-read the rules.
The rules seemed kind of vague to me. Back in those days I kind of felt things were run in a dictatorial manner and not as even-handed as some are claiming. I probably came close to being banned once or twice and there were a number of times I felt that I was being picked on for nit-picky things that other people were getting away with. There is also a lot less personal hostility that goes on here now, and I wonder if it has anything to do with the more lax environment. I like things much better these days then 5 years ago.
Anyone with any updates on NightHawk52? Shop burned down and we haven't heard from him much thereafter......I also miss MartinA.
Linefinder brings up good points of bad memories.....those fish-nuts really could get obnoxious sometimes. I started cyber-surfing there when I was really into fly fishing, but then it turned into a show of whose got better gear, who could get to Belize, and salt-water fishing Tarpon. On the other end, you had your Norm Maclean snobs with their hand-crafted bamboo poles. Both seemed to be fanatical dummy-crats and it wasn't my cup o' tea anymore, so I drifted over here.
To me they lost the essence of fly fishing and got gear-related........like some here have gotten and they're kind of show/turn-offs.
Some people tend to drive their mouth w/o putting their head into gear.......I've learned my lesson and really do a lot of self-editing before I hit the PQR button......or rethink it as not worthy or too brash and just Cancel. I'd like to be remembered as flippant and yet cogent, and not just the class clown.
God show's mercy on drunks and dumb animals.........two outa three ain't a bad score!
I remember some kid who "Buttered" his toast from sexual gratification and posted pics of it on here..banned :banned: real quick.
There was a fruitcake from Nova Scotia who called the Marshal out , can't remember his screen name.
WMG needs to check in more often. Maybe he will post another one of his "Book Of Love" stories.

Seriously, the world's changing as we evolve. Our diets contain much more protein nowadays and people are getting taller. When I was in high school I wasn't the tallest, but I was definitely in the tallest third or maybe forth of our class. But now days at 5-11 1/2, I'm always looking up to people. Hell I even come across a few women nowadays that I have to look up to. It's all relative...
Daddy, what's an enabler?
Son that's somebody with nothing to do with his time but keep me in trouble with mom.
Ya know, speaking of Alcoholics, how many of us have come through here? I think I was always one, now looking back. I tried Dan's patience as much as anybody, but my higher power always knocked my foot off the gas just before the hammer fell. Then when I had that gastric bypass surgery, and they hooked my esophagus up to my intestine, I went full tilt bozo Alchy. The intestine is where liquids are really absorbed. The stomach doesn't really absorb that much. It's more of a holding basin where acids are added to start breaking down foods. So when they hook you up bypassing it, the alcohol goes straight to the liver and straight to the brain. It made me a lush. I was mainlining the booze. Funny thing though I really was drinking less hard liquor and mostly wine and beer. On an average day I would go through two regular bottles of Sangria or other sweet red wine, then go get a six pack of Bacardi Sangria Coolers, which are 6% (Most wine coolers are about 4%), then I'd go back to the convenience store down the road and get 4 or 5 quart cans of Milwaukee's best. The next morning all of that would be gone and I had the shakes. Thank Goodness I wasn't this bad but about 3 months. It was actually a blessing because it drove me to seek help and finally get in AA and quit. Alcohol not only almost got me banned, it ruined one marriage, almost a second, and cost me thousands of dollars through the years. I'm not an alcohol Nazi. If a person can control it, I say more power to you. But it's no longer for me. It almost cost me everything I value in this life.
