i apologize for ur assholeness
Kiss the ring, Cooper. There’s still time.
– She just “knows” what those white crackers are thinking. Cut her some slack.
If that involves some rope and a horse it’s not MY fault.
– feets to come up with some straight forward explaination, absolving her of any wrong-headed racist defamation’s in 3-2-1
if Shirley had been white Breitbart would never have singled her out like he did
Not watching any of these cable news shows makes it kinda hard to follow this saga.
To Henry James it:
“She said what?” > “Do I even get that channel?” > “I wish it was football season.”
– Bingo! – the door prize goes to Senor feets!
….and a lifetime supply of strawberry cupcakes…..
thank you very much I will redistribute the cupcakes to historically disadvantaged peoples
maybe
If she were white, she wouldn’t have been a member of the NAACP, which just smeared the Tea Party on the basis of how they deal with fringe people saying kooky things.
You can think Breitbart overplayed his hand and incorrectly wrote the text accompanying the video without overplaying your hand and incorrectly ascribing motives to him you can not possibly know.
If Shirley had been white, the NAACP wouldn’t have had her.
amends depends
if u are my friend
Great minds…
if Shirley had been white she and Anderson could have talked about shoes!
– If he “singled her out”, it was because she was a prime example of reverse racial discrimination within the rank and file of the NAACP. Her skin color was not in play. She is what she is by her own words.
– His point was just that. That the practitioners of race baiting and keeping the race card alive are probably the most intense group in the country in keeping the phony agiprop going, more importantly, hardly in a position to try to judge anyone else. (see Tea party)
– But then you’re committed to ignoring that, and have been since it happened feets, so no sense in pointing that out for the eleventy-thousandth time I guess.
if Shirley had been white
Breitbart would never have singled her out like he didshe would waiting tables in a south Georgia Waffle House praying to God every night somebody would notice her.BE waiting tables…
is anyone gonna notice that #5 was a tongue in cheek response to Mr. Hunter’s #4? I noticed straightaway.
Did Robert Burns feel more native connection to a mouse than Shirley did to Andrew? It isn’t clear right off, but possible to wonder anyhow.
I don’t think the question quite works in *Andrew to Shirley* form though, does it?
I didn’t. But… I’m kinda slow.
HJ interior voice:
“No, I didn’t notice that.” > “What, I’m supposed to read other people’s comments now?” > “I wish it was football season.”
If Shirley had been white Shirley would never have singled her out like she did.
– Is anyone gonna notice that feets posts #12 thru #537 in threads #3210 through #3244 were all tongue in cheek replies to the original text concerning Breitbart’s actions and motives, due entirely too him running out of strawberry cupcakes. (and for the bunnies!)
yeah well if Breitbart had been black he would have been more understandinger about the socialisms I bet and he wouldn’t always looks so scowly
It makes me feel bad that because ‘feets is ‘feets’ feets has singled ‘feets out like he did. And does.
Stop with that, ‘feets, will you?
for the bunnies huh? Dragging poor dead Lennie back in again.
Blacks are Socialists, ‘feets?
W.E.B. sure was.
they have tendencies
“Dragging poor dead Lennie back in again.”
– Far better than dragging poor dead Billy Mays back in again, gawd help us all.
I have to go to the day-ruining meeting what will make the weekend even more delicious when it’s over
aw, now ‘feets…
I’d eat a cupcake with you, ‘feets.
I will bring two spoons!
– Wll feets, look at the bright side.
– Maybe they’ll have redistributed cupcakes. Your reward for sitting quietly while they explain how they’re going to dismantle you.
If the administration wants this to stop right now so they can get back to talking about the racisim of the tea party then they absolutely must get Mrs. Sherrod to stop talking. The more she talks the more the spotlight falls on her, the USDA, the NAACP, the administration, and Breitbart (who wants lots of free attention anyway) and not the original ostensible target – the tea partiers (and through them the general public who supports the tea party’s small government aims but who are frightened of the Race Card).
So what is the next step? The job offer thing – shut-up and have a nice job – isn’t working. I bet personal appeals and phone calls are not working. So now Mrs. Sherrod must be destroyed by the NAACP and the administration, they have to accept the collateral damage, and only then can they move on back to the original story.
I think they better move awfully fast rehabilitating the unrepentant Mr. Breitbart and destroying the currently sanctified – but won’t shut-up before she wrecks everything – Mrs. Sherrod
You know, I was heading to the beach that weekend and thinking of kicking back and relaxing with the boys, and my head was just on other things. It happens. Sorry Breitbart.
Speaking of apologies, sincere or or maybe otherwise:
Good luck with that, Rich.
– I’m convinced the Left has a total brain-fart going over this whole event.
#36: I am sure Madam Tussaud’s has a spare Bela Lugosi statue that they would let go cheap.
Cognitive dissonance is like that, BBH.
I like the question that was asked (I forget where, but I linked to it at the time), wondering whether the White House staffers running around flapping their arms saying “racist! racist!” ever bump into each other.
– Every which way they turn its a lose-lose.
– If they try to jettison her she’ll turn on them like a rabid dawg.
– If they embrace her, by implication they support all of her racist views as well as her trashing their beloved icon, Bumbblefuck.
– They’re stuck in the middle wondering what new land mines she’ll plant for them next.
– While all this is going on, the object of their targeted slime campaign, the tea party, get’s to skate above it all.
– Not a happy time in the commune of the willfully stupid.
#37: Just think – with all of the media firepower available and the story-plan well drilled they still cannot drag everything back to where they need it to be.
Fascinating turn of events. And very frustrating for them I am sure.
#40 BBH:
A-yep. The best plan they have now is, as I wrote earlier, destroy her quickly, take the hit (we didn’t realize she was that bad), and try to distance yourself from this as fast as possible.
– Fast is the word here. They’re running out of time. November looms large.
– Any sort of well oiled mud slinging needs some time for the idea to spread and get legs, even with the help of the MFM, and there are a few signs such as this post and others, that said help is not as available as it once was.
“This whole event” being life on Earth, Spiny?
I resemble that remark…
– I’m not sure that will work either Mikey.
– She’s obviously an explosive toxic personality. Whether rightly or wrongly she believes she’s in her rights to speak out and feel the way she does.
– The most dangerous of animals. One who is totally at odds with reality, but believes in what she’s doing, and basically has nothing further to lose.
– She might react to getting dumped in a way that would be their worst case scenario. She goes rogue in response to being abandoned and turns to Conservative news outlets, granting on air interviews with Beck, O’Reilly, etc.
– So I’m not sure there’s a viable answer for them that does the one thing they need from her, to sit down and shut up so they can even start damage control efforts.
OT: The Best Magazine Articles Ever.
Wrong. If the NAACP wasn’t rife with hypocritical assholes, Breitbart wouldn’t have done what he did. She’s a pawn and nothing else, happyfeet.
Thanks to trollhammer, no one who uses firefox ever has to read any of my drivel.
bh, off topic, but there are some great articles there. I liked the one on lobsters a lot. It also reminded me of some of those articles I read in the past, like Jon Krakauer one.
You know I had never read Hofstadler’s ‘Paranoid style” before and it turns out he was as clueless as Perlstein is today
This one is pretty good so far.
What is “stink” yammering about?
FTFY
I thought I smelled something, but a gentle application of TrollHammer™ and the springtime-fresh blog smell is back to normal.
All you crackahs can pound sand! Except for happyfeet, who’s got my back. I’ll make sure to send you a red velvet cake, sugar.
And I’ll be sure to tell the NBPP and the nation of Islam to put you the, “whiteys we’ll spare”, list.
I believe “smelly” is going on about our inauthenticity because no openly black people comment here any more (or at least not very often), ever since sugar-you-know-whats left for Europe. Then again, I’m not sure what color most of you racists are.

I wonder if stink has some super duper xray innertubes vision that allows it to determine race by pixels on a webpage. I wonder if stinky knows it is a douchenozzle.
“But why?”
Ummmm….just not that interested in this site? Where *do* African-Americans flock for on-line commentary and banter?
Cordially…
Us high yellow preachers are not mongrels but pure breds.
Then again, I’m not sure what color most of you racists are.
I’m American color. That’s the only color that matters to me.
– Think he is referring to my #37 Spiny, not sure.
If Breitbart had been black and Shirley You Jest had been white would he have called her a cracker?
Da Stinkah ain’t no thinkah.
Ah! Got it…
I think all comments should be prefaced with some sort of identity marker. Like, eg., “hi, Jeff. Juliette here, black, Christian, bisexual. I was wondering, when you write…” Because how can we take ideas seriously if we don’t know what color, religious affiliation, or sexual orientation they are coming from?

Hi, Jeff. JD the Seafoam with fuscia polka dots, 7th Day Adventist transtesticle here. I was wondering when meya licks its finger after diddling its squeakhole, does it taste like chicken?
Reprimanded by a House of his peers.
Hi Jeff. Mike LaRoche here, half honky, half frito bandito, mackerel-snapper, heteronormative Texan imperialist. How many nishis does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
No you, yes willowy.
Willowy and safkaesque.
A wandering melanie I would be, then.
JD the mauve long-donged atheist here …. Mike LaRoche – that is a trick question. 4 nishits can fit in the lightbulb, but even nishit will not screw a nishit.
Hi Jeff. Rob here. All white and Christian, but can guarantee that I have shared and spilled more bodily fluids with black folks, in the form of sweat, spit, blood and a few of the good ones, then the lily white cracker jack ass known as stinky.

Um, hi Jack, Penguins here.
Plenty stinky yet impeccably dressed.
Also we’ve no trees, so it’s all good.

People in Michigan have a chance to send President Obama a message August 3rd! http://mittromneycentral.com/2010/07/30/we-need-pete-hoekstra-as-michigans-next-governor-vote-august-3rd/
President Obama is trying to knock down Michigan’s best chance at finally having a conservative governor, but we can’t let Obama win! The stakes of this election are simply too high!
August 3rd is the most important day in Michigan politics in years! We need to do what we can to help make sure Michigan sends President Obama a message.
Yeah, guinsPen, I left that part out. I thought we were only concerned with legitimate tribal affiliations. Now, if I’d been a community organizer…
If the Central hadn’t discontinued the Wolverine forty friggin years ago, we could’ve all hopped her and delivered it in person.
Is this what the Tea Party needs to do? Be more understandinger about the socialisms? Or just Breitbart? This doesn’t seem very staunchly conservative.
no i just said if

Hey! Don’t youse guys know youse should be supplying any pertinent racial, ethnic, religious, sexual orientation, and other identification you can be uniquely identified by?
Jeff asked for a little “context”. Otherwise how can he take any ideas seriously?
Good to read you, ratso.
Fake but accurate.
From this distance the LTC looked like RTO.
The sentiment remains the same.
Both great men, guinsPen. At least from a hardly knowing them except from their blog personalities point of view that is…Though, I would like to meet both of them and buy them the drinks of their choice.
Ah. So what do you think we should do with them then? Not that it would be in the mission statement or anything, but here they are all over the place. Some of them completely get it, and everything’s good there, so we don’t really need to do anything about those. Others of them want to point and scream RAAAAACIST! at us at every opportunity, and the media is in bed with them.
If you’re calculating, it might be helpful to remember that those first ones are us.
if u buy me a drinks i will first apologize for
anything that comes outta my mouth/ like projectile vomit or jokes about ur
momma
If you can joke about my momma while projectile vomiting, I’m buying you double, pd.
the march of the progressives:
link
I have no idea what you’re talking about or why I stopped and got barbecued soy chunklets for dinner.
That’s just wrong. You need help.
everytime ur momma blows me i projectile vomit
Phytoestrogens!
but it’s cool cuz the bag i put over her face
u can take it off and wipe up the evidence
i like white women telling black women what to do. it is so plantation/democrat.
True story. Today at work (I’m a network specialist for a large county in a large state) I was doing work in a set of cubicles reserved for home health aides and there were a couple of magazines entitled “The Blackpages”. It turns out it’s a magazine for black folks looking to do business only with other black folks. Dr. King just shit his-self in his grave. The fact that lily white dumbfucks like AJB/RD/Meya/Stinky don’t see the folly of this shit is amazing to me. It’s also the reason that I wouldn’t hesitate to beat them to within an inch of their lives if the need arose. I know, I know. I’m a violent sociopath. But, it’s hard sharing the rock with such disingenuous morons as these people.
Maybe you should have her stop blowing you. Unless of course you enjoy projectile vomiting.
Maybe she might could take a break and blow Anthony Weiner a little he needs it.
JD lilly white Xianist herteronormative leader of Teh PATRIARCHY would like to note that you guys are cracking me up.
if i had a dime for everytime i projectile vomited/ and ur momma picked out the protien chunks
i’d give her a nickel
happy, she can only blow so many people in one day. You fucking mysoginistic imperial demagogues are really infuriating at times. True story: She was a delegate to Jimmy Carter at the 1976 Democratic National Convention. BTW, I love my Mom. She is a wonderful, if not greatly misguided, person.
JD, you left out oppressor of sawed-off, hairshirt Turks. And we all know how you like to be thorough.
Now, I know you’re lying, pd. My mom wouldn’t pick out any protein chunks from your vomit. I was her little boy and when I came home from a nights’ carousing and imbibing she NEVER cleaned up my vomit. Again, I was her little angel.
aside
i remember the story of a green bay packer who
was sued in court/for sexy harrasment and he was on the stand
and the prosecutur was hammering about his conduct and he replied
what guy doesent love a blowjob?
james lofton!
u owe me a double of/ i like johnny walker black/
I got James Lofton’s autograph at the PDQ in North Fond du Lac, WI when I was a little kid.
True story. He didn’t mention the blowjob dealio though.
Weiner is a weiner. If there ever was anyone that so desperately was begging to be kicked in the teeth …
I shook his hand like a man and he pretended it hurt. Said I would be a fearsome football player one day.
Liar.
that was her!/ i remember that convention/ we wore hats!
i hope mrs. islam weiner gets kosher dogs
Pd, I was prepared to buy you a 25 year old Balvenie. A JW black is on your way. I’ll send it in care of Teddy Kennedy’s bloated corpse.
bh, another true story as told by my father. Back in 1961 he made a stop in little old Cleveland Ohio, and my dad at the time was a democratic leader in Lorain County (county adjacent to Cuyahoga county). Anyhow, Jack was making his way through the crowd and shook my Dad’s hand. My dad, being an absolutely huge fan of Jack, shook his hand so hard that it brought Kennedy to his knees (slight exaggeration). Jack told my dad he’d be a fixture in democratic party politics in the region after that. He was (is). Maybe Jack Kennedy was more prescient than James Lofton is all I’m sayin’.
If I went and bought
The drinks of your choice for you,
Would you go one shift?
No. You wore “The Grin Will Win” T shirts! Godawful things those were. She brought us back Jimmy Carter “teeth”! That’s my first inclination that these people were fucking weird. Plus, the whole anti-freedom thing. But at 7 years old, that didn’t mean much to me at the time.
oooh!/ a 25 year old blavenie/ aren’t u impressive
wish i could say the same about your momma
No, I’m not. But the 25 year old Balvenie most definitely is.
i have a six pack of billy beer in my cellar/ ur momma wanted to drink it/
i made her a promise/ i reneged/
ur mommas still thirsty
no/ u are!
I think it’s time to tell you this, pd…
I’m yo daddy.
Heh, it certainly seems like it.
Gap-toothed stumpjumper with delusions of intellect here on the banjo.
JD, a question.
I realize that the trench system was not removable, but was the razor wire considered to be a structural component and what about those twin 50s on the roof, stay or go?
where have u been?/ i have a fogged up picture of u
are u white?
wheres my check?
certain little boys memories are sure and true……
why did u go out for bread and never return?
are u like charlie on the mta?
did u have an accident?
do u work for the cia?
i forgive u/ u bastard
Dude, I work for the gubmint. Your check has been spent on PBR and 24 inch D Vinci’s.
He left because you dyed his favorite cat blue.
i just heated up my tasty soy morsels in time to see buttons #120
JD (bible thumping bitter clinger hilljack) Trench converted to concrete moat was too much work to remove, though new owner may fill in. The twin .50 cals were removed prior to inspection, as they have very light triggers, and I did not want some nosy curious stranger accidentally fire them. The new owner, for some strange reason, requested that I take the concertina wire with me, so now I have half a basement full of deadly barbed wire.
Dude, stop eating soy. It’s the exact opposite as windsprints. You’re gonna start ovulating.
isn’t soy just a dark brown salty liquid?
jeepers/ u remembered i dyed my
the best cat btw
who never never peed in my mouth
blue blue
can somebody delete all my comments?
im thinking of running for an office
somewhere at sometime
vote for me/ my slogan is
i will not projectile vomit in a crowd!
cuz of the cripplled children
It’s worse than fluoridated water, is what it is, JD.
Soy makes you a hairless pacifist with bitch-tits. Fact.
bh, to be fair, some soy is, ahem enjoyable? As for ovulating, maybe happy can sell that to the Lifetime Network and make him a quick dime or two. And now my usual salvo to JD. When are you in town again? I’d like to return the favor, blah, blah, blah…
i will not shave my head into a mohawk and look at my oppenent
like in taxi driver
but i will look in a mirror and say
are u talking to me

This is an antidote to hairless pacifist bitch-tits.
These things make you estrogeny: soy, too much alcohol, being too fat.
These things make you like John Wayne: windsprints, squats, lots of lean protein.
Maybe later this summer, OI. I try to avoid it, as best I can ;-)
I LOL at that comment as I tweak my left booby! It may be the alcohol component…which kind of leads to the too fat component…Damn those causes and effects!
i have the crazy vote locked
i mean locked up!
now i need the motherfucking crazy vote
i need a cat herder pronto
JD, I’m stuck in this hell hole, so I understand that sentiment more than you may know…
Things that make you not-estrogeny : Large caliber weapons, eating food without utensils, bone-in ribeyes, Ford Expeditions …
Is a 50 cal Barrett M82 not estrogeny?
wha? I had to go to culver city and after it was right at 5 so before we got on the 405 for the hour and a half ride back we saw this and they had lassi which is what I was craving but I had a plate too where you get a choice of three thingers so I got the bbq soy bits and the jack fruit and the some kind of curry I can’t remember. It was tasty so I got a cup of soy chunklets to go.
I wish you could get lassi here in Studio City I bet maybe you can in NoHo on burbank there’s an Indian Grocery store here next to something called “Cambridge Farms” I have never been to either I will I will go tomorrow.
OI – It is not the town, I enjoy your town. Any town that has a restaurant owned and operated by Michael Symon rocks. Just nothing good ever seems to happen when everyone gets drug in to the home office.

Phytoestrogens, ‘feets. Just say no.
This last weekend, I shot a wicked AR-15 and a .308 with a scary good scope. Good times.
i promise/ i mean promise
i promise with all my heart to give every commentator at this site
free fries with their next purchase
PD for dog catcher!
phytoestrogens are inside me right now?
Take it from me, there’s few things more testosteroney than a .50bmg in any incarnation. I favor the old M2HB but it is kinda hard to find a good concealment holster….
Yes, and they’re telling your body that muscle is bad and fat is good. They’re subversive. They laugh at your cupcake restriction because they can make fat out of celery and diet water.
I hate them
I’ve never shot it, JD. But it remains on the list to be shot. And Michael Symon is an amazing chef to be sure, but Cleveland has a pall over it that will never go away. It is what it is as cliche as that sounds, but I get your point about the “home office”. That is understandable to say the least.
And Bh, the Ar-15 is a .308, no? My good friend has an Ar-15 and it is deceptively light. I haven’t shot it, either, but next time in his hood, we’re going to the range. It should be fun.
where else do they lurk?
let me be clear/dear
a vote for me is not a vote for the other guy
and i’ll tell you
the other guy is not me
he will pretend to be me
he will try to be me/
his wife might blow u
he might harm his kids to make them crippled kids and say
hey look/ i have crippled kids
but he is not me
thank God
Things like nuts and flaxseed are also highly subversive. Other things are too but I forget.
peabnut bubber?
I have researchings to do when I get back.
OI, according to the internet the AR-15 is a .223 Remington / 5.56 NATO and the .308 is 7.62 NATO.
Yeah, the AR-15 was really light, I could shoot pretty well standing up without a sling.
Wonder what would happen if you shot the Barrett that way …
And you can go again JD, it’s still there according to Google maps and on streetview you can see they haven’t even changed their sign. I love when someone saves a little piece of non-PC Americana!
I think your shoulder would end up in last week, JD. Anyhow, good night to all you racists, sexists and oppressors of the weak. It’s been fun. Buonanotte bitches.
Somebody’s probably converted an AR-15 reciever to chamber a .308 round.
I like the Ruger No. 1 chambered for the .375 H & H magnum
Yes, the AR15 is a .223, best suited for shooting pasture poodles in my not so humble opinion. I still remember the day they made me turn in my M14 (7.62 NATO) and issued me an M16 (military full-auto version of the AR15). After our first trip to the range I cried a little.

That would be kinda ass-backward. Armalite (the “A” in AR) first came out with the AR10 chambered in .308 but the military in their infinite wisdom wanted something in a lighter caliber more suited to arming our Little Brown Brothers in SE Asia. Thus was born the M16/AR15.
Small bit of firearms trivia: The Brits who make the big double guns for shooting elephants, T Rex, and such wee beasties sight them from a standing rest. The more upright you are the more your body can rock back and absorb the recoil. I cringe to think of shooting a .600 Nitro Express prone. Prolly slide you back a yard and compress every disk in your back.
Bet you don’t notice the recoil when an annoyed Jumbo is about to caress you with his trunk though. An old African hunter was asked why he carried a .600 Nitro and he replied that it was because they didn’t make a .700 Nitro. This quip must have made it back to Blighty because now they do make a .700 Nitro Express.
Here’s a video of a guy shooting one. It literally lifts him off his feet. As they say, “This will put hair on your chest”!
JD, of course you’re in your bunk! But would you ever want to get out of your bunk long enough to take something like that into the field?
That is freakin cool, Swen. Thanks for that.

Love the motto of the “Hair on your chest” site: “Starvation is God’s way of punishing those who have no faith in Capitalism.”
Holy shit, that elephant gun is just insane, Swen.
I guess you wouldn’t need to take it into the field, then, because you’d probably be blind as well.
Here’s one of my favorites: Invite your buddies over for a few beers and let them play with your homemade turbojet engine. Would you have dared to get that last camera angle? Not me!
And really hairy palms …
Pretty double guns JD! I’ve always wanted one of those but a good one could cost more than my house. Seriously.
If you like drooling on guns check out Cabela’s Gun Library. You could pick up a nice 8 Bore double rifle! The .700 Nitro is a 12 bore, imagine an 8 bore, yeah gods!
dogs will be allowed/ if i’m ur dog catcher
to get three shots from any gun that is dropped on
the floor
yes i know my crappy ass oponent says ur dog will get four shots
but he’s a liar
for crimmy sakes his pants are on fire
vote for him if u want
cuz i don’t want to rule u anyhow
but i will
“Holy shit, that elephant gun is just insane, Swen.”
– Forget it bh. They’re not going to shot a whole Elephant just to make you a sandwich.
as your dogcatcher
ur official dog catcher
any wagging of tails/except ur momma
by non dogs/ or dog related products will be outlawed
if ur the official dog-getter
as a part of the neo-utopia
ur 1st job will be
redistribution of any
and all dog turds
on the White House lawn
now get crakin’ cracker
don’t mind dogs
don’t mind guns
what i mind is a dog with a gun
who does not bark when they shoot you
keeps me up at night
like the fear of cats pissing in my mouth
kittens are ok cuz they are wicked easy to drown
Seriously though, would you ever use a double rifle enough to justify the cost? I get the tradition, and that they’re exquisite examples of the gunsmith’s art, but unless you’re quitting Wall Street to do your own version of the Capstick routine, would it be worth it?
i ship every dog turd to baltimore
ur allowed to use
teddy as a human shovel
he should be almost
as stiff now
as he was in real life
Of course, for a full dose of testosterone you’ll need one of these. Some friends and I had an Indian Wars vintage 6 pounder. With a steel-lined cast iron gun it could take a bit more of a charge than you see being fired here. Powder got expensive pretty quick but you got a lot of bang for your buck.. So to speak.
once baltimore gets filled up with shit
i’ve done my job
– Forget it bh. They’re not going to shot a whole Elephant just to make you a sandwich.
Although if you don’t mind running with ivory poachers, they’d probably let you help youself to all the sandwiches you want.
Watch our for the park rangers though, they all carry AK’s.
Ernst, my senior partner would answer that question with, “I probably won’t make it through the next heart attack.”
He’s my hero.
I would share my elephant sandwich, btw. I’m pretty cool like that.
if mary jo could get to that shovel in the trunck
would she break a window to breathe and surface and chase that fat bastard down and beat the shit outta him with said shovel?
if it’s on pay per view/ i’m hosting
As they say, haters gonna hate. For myself, we’re lucky to have you, buttons.
I think it’s one of those “What would you pay to not become the squishy stuff between an elephant’s toes?” questions. But yes, it would be hard to justify when you can get a good heavy bolt gun and pay for your African safari for the price of a good double. Definitely rich boy’s toys. Besides, if I could afford something like that I’d probably go see these guys. Why think small? Life should be a blast!
Talking about big guns inevitably reminds me of the Heinlein story about the guy who had a job polishing the brass cannon on the court house lawn. He’d been doing it for years and was very good at it, but he never got a raise and felt no one really appreciated him. So he quit the county, bought his own cannon, and went into business for himself.

Just because. Later, fellas.
– After a successful career in cannons, in later life he moved on to apples.
bh,
Hey you still planning on a Big Apple trip this month?
When were you thinking again, Danger? Middle of this month, right? Took that trip late last week because I had to put out a fire but I can probably still swing it. Give me some dates and locations and I’ll see what I can do.
Okay, took me a second to another email address, Danger.
Shoot me a line at jdsalinger ThisSymbolRepresents@ mail.com.
to *remember* another
Number four, Bobby Orr!
msry jo finally got
her gold medal
for most drunkard ex-congressmen
killed at the cloud 9 pub
during happy hour
with a rusty hammer

in front of the
goodyear blimp kiosk
every other sunday
through eternity
bh
I’ll be there sometime between the 7th and 16th. I have to drop my # 2 daughter in N. PA on the 3rd and we are planning on staying a few days in DC. If you send me an e-mail to dangerdaveoc at gmail dot com I will give you an update in a few days.
I’m waiting to hear back from Bob and perhaps we could smoke out Abe Froman as well.
Success, just got your email, Danger. I’m sending an email from my normal address to your gmail account now.
fridges are fat
wide/ like teddy kennedys ass

and u can keep ted williams head in them
bh,
got your last and I’m heading to dreamland.
g’night all
poland is also cold
but they like americans
not like that fat bastard teddy kennedy
Later, Danger.
Know what I’m doing tomorrow?
Nothing. All day long. My main goal is to make a bh shaped depression in the couch. I might make sangria and pretend I lost my phone.
i got this mary jo kopeckne bobble head doll that i put in my back window
and i’m from mass and i get the finger alot
but it’s not nearly as sad as your kerry/edwards bumpersticker
Correct! The nishit is an evolutionary dead-end. Oh, the irony.
sKerry jumps lines

and South station
the bilichek sucks
it sucks when u come home after a shitfuck day
and ur trying to relax on the couch/ decompress
and ur dog points a gun at u and wants you to take it for a walk
and u know it’s serious cuz its tail ain’t wagging and its eyes are focused
and it has that stare
and u know that the dog ain’t fucking around
and u think to yourself
where does he hide that gun?
then u sigh and say
do u want to go out?
and the dog puts the gun down and
wags its tail
[…] Speaking of apologies… […]

Somebody’s probably converted an AR-15 reciever to chamber a .308 round.
I like the Ruger No. 1 chambered for the .375 H & H magnum
It’s called an AR10 and you can buy the semi auto version from Armalite.
My wifes cousin is a gunsmith. He built a double rifle in .375 H&H. He used it for elk in Wyoming. It’s really heavy.
What would you say to an AR15 chambered in .50 Beowolf? Ouch?
JHoward’s new post tracks pretty well with this thread.
Danger and bh: I’m just outside of Philly but my daughter lives in NY. I’d be happy to meet you guys and hoist a few.
bjtexs *at* gmail.com
Pee dee has the runs.
Runs and runs and runs and runs.
Run-‘ton-‘ton, pee dee.
Sounds good, BJ. Why don’t you shoot Danger a line (email at #228) and we’ll let him be the organizer.
Swen, you would have smiled to see the M-14s starting to reappear when I was in Afghanistan. I always liked having those around…
The M249B is fun (7.62) but I do realize most of you don’t have access to machine guns. Of course, firing a 155m gun leaves you a bit cold with anything else for a while after…heh.
SW, did you see this video that was in the right hand column from yours? Yikes.
bh, that one is a classic. The first time I saw it I thought she’d buried the hammer in her forehead; the slowmo looks like it’s the barrel that gives her a slap. “Interesting bruise you’ve got there, miss.” “Oh yes, I got it from the barrel of my boyfriend’s gun.” “Well, I must say, he knows how to treat his women.”
No doubt you’ve seen the more common scope-eye bruise?
That I have, SW. People can be remarkably silly sometimes.
Heh, I was half expecting a Navy guy to pop in and refer to the 155mm as under-sized.
“. . .a Navy guy to pop in and refer to the 155mm as under-sized”
Or possibly nowadays, under-boogitied.
I wonder how many chaps are still around who’ve witnessed 9 16 inchers going pop at the same time. Last year we visited the USS North Carolina – the main magazine was my favourite place on the ship. The size of the ammo and powder charges was mind blowing. Not even JD would think of busting one of those caps.
That sounds like a great time, SW.
I think my boys liked it as much as I did, bh. I could live in the Carolinas quite easily.
Oh, yeah, I can imagine your boys loved it. Went on some ship in Norfolk when I was a little kid and my thoughts were, “Wow, big, wow, cool, wow.”
Thinking I’ll see the USS Cobia at some point this summer. My thoughts will probably run more towards, “Wow, small, wow, scary, wow.”
I’ve been in the similarly sized Balao-class USS Clamagore, and they seem too claustrophobic for me, although they were bigger than the Type IX U-boats of the time. My cousin was in U-boats during the war; he was one of the lucky ones that came back.
My old next-door neighbor’s boat, USS Cavalla is a Gato-class too, and on display near Galveston.
The USS Cavalla, like a number of US subs, was successful against a Japanese carrier. The British lost several carriers to U-boats (Courageous and Ark Royal; can’t remember any others). I don’t think the US lost any carriers to subs, or am I just an old geezer with a bad memory?
Don’t know myself.
Here a list SW. Looks like we could count USS Wasp at least, though it was ultimately put down by a US destroyer. USS Block Island too, though a German sub. ffhiker.tripod.com/index-7.html
Add the prefix if you will, as the link won’t post.
Ach, reading that it doesn’t seem clear. So, it begins ffhiker, so add http etc, slash slash and it should be good to go.
It is a bad memory – the British also lost HMS Avenger, Eagle and Audacity to U-boats.
My mom’s BFF is good buddies with this guy. He’s one gnarly dude. She gave me a book about his exploits off the eastern US seaboard, well worth a look.
Herman taught me the virtues of cigar smoking. Oh, and his were the first girly mags I ever saw as well. I wouldn’t think him gnarly, so much as fixed of purpose.
Herman?
The Cavalla skipper.
Ach so. He did you several favours, it seems.
Many. Though I’m not so sure about the Playboys, since his son my buddy Billy and I were caught with them at elementary school and jeez what a beatin’.
Thank heavens you weren’t caught smoking as well. Then you would have been in real trouble.
That one we reserved for later SW. Though by that time they took to “reasoning” with us, as they puffed away at another Kent or Antony y Cleopatra as their habits lead them.
Casualties: U.S. Navy and Coast Guard Vessels, Sunk or Damaged Beyond Repair during World War II, 7 December 1941-1 October 1945
Thanks, guins.
Your welcome, SW. Also, to answer the rest of your question.
You’re mama.
There is actually an aircraft carrier sunk in Lake Michigan.
It’s a converted paddle wheel steamer called the “Wolverine”
Hey, OI, if you need to send the 25yo Balvenie to somebody, I will volunteer to receive it.
If that’s already gone, though, I’ll settle for Caol Ila 12.
Thanks, you’re the best.
