If you tell a joke in the forest and no one is there to hear it , is it still a joke ?

Sorry to hear the bad news . Are you in Caledonia ?

Great speech ! The guy behind him with the little girl was in tears .

If it wasn't for bad luck , I wouldn't have any luck at all !

I had some arrows cut wrong once and decided -- never again . I decided to make my own arrow cut-off saw . Bought a small table top saw at Harbor Freight for $26 and used some scrap lumber / boards laying around and I was all set . I posted it on the DIY forum some time ago .

You can handle his body parts but I won't !

Why don't they make the whole plane out of that Black Box stuff ?

If you are in a spaceship traveling at the speed of light , and you turn on the headlights , does anything happen ?

What are you supposed to add to "powdered water" ?

Note : Don't drink while installing Garage Door Openers !

I think Culver has it ...... it's the limit switch if the door closes when disconnected .

Why does your nose run and your feet smell ? Hmmmmmmm !

Chumleyhunts ---- I read something similar in a hunting magazine a while back . It mentioned that some shooters would weigh down a lead sled so much that the rifle blast would crack a stock on recoil as the recoil had to go someplace . " For every action , there is an opposite and equal reaction " .

As a supervisor at Xerox , I used to have to give a short Safety Talk each week to the "Industrial Staff" . One of the outlines I used for a talk was about Butane Lighters . It gave a couple examples of welders having a lighter blow up in their pocket and causing some serious damage . Kinda made the boys cringe !

Good ole Grannie ........

My youngest son came over today and we went to the Ontario Rod & Gun Clud so he could shoot his new Savage 220f . When we got back to the house we got something to drink and spent some time together . As he was about to leave he noticed some things re-arranged in his car and his DICKs Gift Card was missing . He thought someone had broken into his car . Upon further inspection he found s pieces of a butane lighter strewn about , found the gift card , etc .. Apparently with the windows up and the car sitting in the sun , one of the lighters he had in the car exploded and blew the stuff around . Apparently it isn't safe to leave Butane Lighters in a hot environment ! Just a heads up .

My youngest son bought a Savage 220F bolt action like mine and I picked up 4 boxes of Federal Power Shok sabots at Beikirchs for him . He will try them out tomorrow .

I was putting up Real Estate signs last week and it had been raining so much that I saw a couple of mallards swimming in someone's front yard .

Happy Birthday !

I havn't seen along the curbs after Christmas but I know we still have our old JB Hunter artificial tree in the attic . I should dig it out and put it to some good use .

I don't think I would want to participate ....

About 4-5 years ago I gave away a few boxes of the Remington ThunderBolts . I didn't like them because they dirtied up the action in my pistol . I could have made a profit if I had held onto them to sell ....... Nah !

Nice ! Looks like the little one is looking back for the camera .

In the Marines they taught us , " when you got'em by the balls , their hearts and minds will follow " !

Reuters Online rumors about a big government munitions purchase are true, sort of. The Homeland Security Department wants to buy more than 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition in the next four or five years. It says it needs them -- roughly the equivalent of five bullets for every person in the United States -- for law enforcement agents in training and on duty. Published federal notices about the ammo buy have agitated conspiracy theorists since the fall. That's when conservative radio host Alex Jones spoke of an "arms race against the American people" and said the government was "gearing up for total collapse, they're gearing up for huge wars." The government's explanation is much less sinister. Federal solicitations to buy the bullets are known as "strategic sourcing contracts," which help the government get a low price for a big purchase, says Peggy Dixon, spokeswoman for the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Glynco, Ga . The training center and others like it run by the Homeland Security Department use as many as 15 million rounds every year, mostly on shooting ranges and in training exercises. Dixon said one of the contracts would allow Homeland Security to buy up to 750 million rounds of ammunition over the next five years for its training facilities. The rounds are used for basic and advanced law enforcement training for federal law enforcement agencies under the department's umbrella. The facilities also offer firearms training to tens of thousands of federal law enforcement officers. More than 90 federal agencies and 70,000 agents and officers used the department's training center last year. The rest of the 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition would be purchased by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the federal government's second largest criminal investigative agency. ICE's ammunition requests in the last year included: --450 million rounds of .40-caliber duty ammunition --40 million rounds of rifle ammunition a year for as many as five years, for a total bullet-buy of 200 million rounds --176,000 rifle rounds on a separate contract --25,000 blank rounds The Homeland Security ammo buy is not the first time the government's bullets purchases have sparked concerns on the Internet. The same thing happened last year when the Social Security Administration posted a notice that it was buying 174,000 hollow point bullets. Jonathan L. Lasher, the agency's assistant inspector general for external relations, said those bullets were for the Social Security inspector general's office, which has about 295 agents who investigate Social Security fraud and other crimes. Jones the talk-show host did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
