Normally, I don't do blind links, but you gotta see the pictures that go with this story. Who said the wild west is dead in Orygun?

Apparently, I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with his money than what Barack & Michelle Obama do with mine

The original article in the newspaper showed him with his gun strapped on over the overalls. He wore it like an old west gunslinger, down low on his leg!
Gotta love characters like that!Apparently, I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with his money than what Barack & Michelle Obama do with mine

You gettin' ideas, Sonny Jim?
:DOf every one hundred men, ten should not even be here. Eighty are nothing but targets. Nine are real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the One... One of them is a Warrior... He will bring the others back.

I think you have to have some sort of license to buy it in Oregon. A friend of mine, a retired OSP Sgt., used to use blowing up stuff with dynamite as a stress relief. I think "excavations" in his backyard led to at least one, if not more divorces..... Originally Posted by kels
