I used to be able to do cartwheels. Now I tip over putting on my underwear.

I told my wife she should embrace her mistakes... so she hugged me.

My wife says I only have 2 faults. I don't listen and something else....

At my funeral, take the bouquet off my coffin and throw it into the crowd to see who is next.

I thought growing old would take longer.

I came, I saw, I forgot what I was doing. Retraced my steps, got lost on the way back. Now I have no idea what's going on.

The officer said, "You drinking?" I said, "You buying?" We just laughed and laughed....I need bail money.

I think the reason we are born with two hands is so we can pet two dogs at once.

Scientists say the universe is made up of protons, neutrons and electrons. They forgot to mention morons in the Biden administration.

The adult version of "head, shoulders, knees and toes" is "wallet, glasses, keys and phone."

Oops.... did I roll my eyes out loud?

Life is too short to waste time matching socks.

Wi-fi went down for five minutes, so I had to talk to my family. They seem like nice people.

If you see me talking to myself, just move along. I'm self-employed; we're having a staff meeting.

I won't be impressed with technology until I can download food.

Some people call me crazy. I prefer happy with a twist.

My doctor asked if anyone in my family suffers from mental illness. I said, "No, we all seem to enjoy it."

I really don't mind getting old, but my body is having a major fit.

Camping: where you spend a small fortune to live like a homeless person.

Project Manager...because Miracle Worker isn't an official job title.

I told my wife I wanted to be cremated. She made me an appointment for Tuesday.

Measure once, cuss twice..

My dream job would be driving the karma bus.

THINK! (It's not illegal.... YET)

I don't care who dies in a movie, as long as the dog lives.

The world's best antidepressant has 4 legs, a wagging tail and comes with unconditional love.

Love is how excited your dog gets when you come home.

I've reached the age where my train of thought often leaves the station without me.

If you're happy and you know it, it's your meds.

What could possibly go wrong here?………….They rent these things called pedal pubs to groups that want to party in the park which is cool but now you can rent one of these things which is basically a giant beer keg on wheels for idiots to drink all day and drive around on the city streets……..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hcgr9xg7MqQ

Last weekend in downtown Atlanta a group of fun loving young women for a girl’s party rented one of these rolling bars and after trying to go down 14th street which is a pretty good down hill slope, attempted to make a left turn onto West Peachtree but since those things apparently don’t handle too good being top heavy and all with those little skinny tires and a fair amount of lard aboard so guess what happened, yep Laquisha couldn’t quite make the turn and flipped the pedal bar in the middle of a very busy intersection……Oh the Humanity, all those Red Solo cups full of ice cold beer smashed and puddled up all over the road along with 16 very drunk fat girls with injuries, some serious requiring trips to the ER……The driver was charged with DUI ………Makes you wonder who in the city business license office thought this was a great idea…….

To all those thinking of moving here, or just visiting, be aware of the following especially all the people wanting to move here from New York and California as well as many other heavily populated cities across the country.


Before you come to North Carolina to visit you must be aware of what is happening here. Especially, around the north Georgia mountains, rural areas and along our beautiful coast. There's a housing shortage, rent has tripled, and folks are vacationing here in record numbers...

So if you plan on moving here, or just plan on vacationing on our beaches, river bottoms, mountains or lakes this summer, I think you should know that wolf spiders, fire ants and bedbugs have infested hotels and motels across the state due to dryer than usual weather. The woods will eat you alive with ticks and chiggers.

Our lakes are full of snapping turtles gators, fresh water sharks, and creepy old guys wearing speedos.
Our rivers are full of drunks in tubes peeing themselves while the banjo players lay waiting in the bushes.
Panthers have eaten many domesticated animals and possibly some small children.

The local bear and coyote population are all 'in heat' and think your wife/girlfriend is hot.

Snakes... don’t even get me started on the Water Headed Copper Moccasins,, the Diamond Back Rattler Cobras and the Death Adder Pythons.

The poison ivy has overtaken all other vegetation.
We have had bear sightings at every park and town they are after your picnic baskets….and some cougars have been spotted in motel rooms and bars.

Watch out for the armadillos, they have been extremely aggressive this season.

In North Carolina we have the Skunk Ape invading our parks and it’s their mating season. Porcupines are "stabbing" small children should they dare to utilize the local playground equipment.

Skunks have multiplied at unprecedented rates and wander the local campgrounds in packs looking for beer.

Murder hornets!?! We’ve got great black clouds of murder hornets, and swarms of giant crickets and even some Oklahoma grasshoppers.

Scorpions have been congregating in massive quantities under rocks, logs, wooden steps, automobiles, and tarantulas are now stealing peoples food and biting like crazy.

I’m pretty sure all private tiger owners (we had a jump in them after Tiger King) have released their cats into the streets of our cities and towns.

Head lice now fly and we have vampire bats. Oh, and no one is vaccinated. I think you should stay in New York and California. The tourist ads I see on TV say those are great places.

We lived in Charlotte N.C. From 1982 until 1991 and it was a very nice, beautiful small town, big city at that time but my company shut down that office and we came back to Atlanta which was home and while I was born and raised in Atlanta Ga. it has become a war zone with several shootings/murders every day by 14 year olds with guns and it has become insane to even walk around here and there are almost daily road rage shootings for no reason other than somebody was driving too slow……..Atlanta has become a dangerous jungle and I am thinking selling the house and moving to the mountains may be a smart thing to do what with Brandon’s new economy and teen gang wantabe’s everywhere wanting to prove their manhood…… I would much rather deal with panthers, poison turtles and killer bees than urban rage filled killers and a Democrat run City that arrests hard core criminals then puts them back to the street because they are “woke” and just don’t care…..

All you needed to do Grot was tell them about the Trump rallies that take place every night in every town and city. That would keep the Yorkians and Commifornians away.

For years during every football bowl season, while the rest of the country huddled indoors against polar weather, I've decried the benighted television producers, with their lingering, panoramic television shots of beautiful, sunny, 72 degree California vistas of gently waving palm trees lining broad bays of sparkling waves crashing onto bikini-laden beaches.
How I wish they'd instead shown the Watts section-8 housing, Bakersfield in Panavision, icy & dirty Santa Cruz beaches, hotel receipts with their endless add-on taxes, & side-by-sides of California gas prices with anywhere else in the country, and maybe a shot of SF 1BR studio apartment prices & some MLS listings.
If only we could wind the clock back and adopt Grotman's approach.
To assist your effort, per my son, just convince the left-driven diaspora that Camp Lejeune is representative of all the rest of North Carolina.

When our oldest son turned 8 I got him one of those crossman pump pellet guns that he could pump up 10 times. If we’re gonna put out an eye might as well do it good.

Don't remember age, but as a young pup in grammar school having bb "fights" with others in neighborhood. Everyone wore Levi's, but they were the old type you stood up in the corner. Rule was below the waste which we mostly did. I did go thru the bbs those days and was good at it. The skills carried over through each gun as I grew. Even hand guns until my hands failed me with basil joints total Wipeout. Don't have any guns now except house 12ga. Good memories!

What????? Dad's trusty 45 got passed down?

I did a remodel for a lady who didn't like squirrels in her bird feeder. The back door of the house was one of them split doors, where you could open just the top half.
I'd leave her a not on the kitchen counter daily with anything needed or issues etc.
She told me if I ever saw a squirrel in the bird feeder to shoot it with the BB gun behind the half door. It was easy 30 feet or so to the feeder. She told me to pump it 10 times. I thought yeah right.

Well I'm leaving the note one afternoon and I see the squirrel in the feeder so I thought what the heck, I'll take a poke.
I pumped the gun 10 times as instructed but it was really hard. Didn't figure I'm have a snow ball chance of hitting it.
I pulled the trigger and it was like that squirrel got hit by a 30/06, blew it right out of the feeder and back several feet. My first thought was damn, gotta get me one of these.

Well long story short her husband told me he'd already pumped it up 10 times so it was ready. Guess I added some velocity with the extra 10 pumps.

I was riding in the truck with my 36 year old daughter the other day and a squirrel ran across the road in front of us and I went after it trying to hit it but missed and my daughter was freaking out and I had to explain that they were yard rats because if you’ve ever had squirrels in your attic chomping on your house wiring at 6am it forever changes how you look at the little a holes…….Now about BB guns, when we were about 10 my friend and partner in crime Mike both had Crossman 760 pump BB guns and on one after dark late night mission we ended up at our elementary school…..The back entrance had a wall made of opaque glass blocks about the size of concrete blocks but a little smaller so being 10, unsupervised and with heavy weaponry in our hands we decided to see what would happen if we shot at that glass wall……Well glass is very hard and the shots were bouncing off until I hit one right in the middle which said oomph and spider webbed……We ran home and hid out for several days until we figured the heat was off and we never got caught for that one………

Funny part was back in 2019 another good high school friends grand daughter was graduating elementary school at the very same place so we went to the ceremony and I was amazed how small everything looked with little tiny hallways and water fountains but afterward I had to know if that back wall had been rebuilt or changed so I walked back there and amazingly enough the glass block wall was still there 50 years later with one block still spiderwebbed and never repaired……..I didn’t know if I should be ashamed or proud of that shot…..

"What????? Dad's trusty 45 got passed down?"

Yep, quite a ceremony. My son and both grandsons as I told them my story about dad's Colt. When finished, I asked my son what he'll call it and he replied dad's Colt as each grandson in turn, understanding it would be their dad's colt passed down. It's now a true family heirloom and I'm proud of that. Ps, they appreciated the custom grips YOU made for me. You da man and will for always.

What????? Dad's trusty 45 got passed down?

I did a remodel for a lady who didn't like squirrels in her bird feeder. The back door of the house was one of them split doors, where you could open just the top half.
I'd leave her a not on the kitchen counter daily with anything needed or issues etc.
She told me if I ever saw a squirrel in the bird feeder to shoot it with the BB gun behind the half door. It was easy 30 feet or so to the feeder. She told me to pump it 10 times. I thought yeah right.

Well I'm leaving the note one afternoon and I see the squirrel in the feeder so I thought what the heck, I'll take a poke.
I pumped the gun 10 times as instructed but it was really hard. Didn't figure I'm have a snow ball chance of hitting it.
I pulled the trigger and it was like that squirrel got hit by a 30/06, blew it right out of the feeder and back several feet. My first thought was damn, gotta get me one of these.

Well long story short her husband told me he'd already pumped it up 10 times so it was ready. Guess I added some velocity with the extra 10 pumps.
.177+P+ is the best squirrel load.

You turned the volume up to 11!

That’s pretty spendy for ammo but look at it this way, when Uncle Slow’s economy tanks and it will after a few more Fed interest rate increases so at least you will have something to trade for bacon, eggs and baby formula if your grand babies are hungry…….I think we are in for some hard times very soon so stocking up on any reasonably priced ammo is a good idea because Uncle Slow keeps writing checks we can’t cash like another $40 billion to Ukraine which is basically a money laundering scheme because who really knows where that money will end up…….This Country is in serious trouble because we basically have an Alzheimer’s patient in control who only says what his handlers allow him to like what I heard recently when he said “The economy is in better shape now than it was under the last five administrations”…………..Buy Ammo!

I don't get out much but trekked with the wife to the big city to a sporting goods store I never been too. Never seen so many fish hooks in one place. Usually good from reports on guns and prices. One of them where they got all the pistols hanging on the wall too far away to see good, and can't really see prices. Didn't buy no guns but did scoop up some 9mm Blazer Brass to play with.
19 bucks a box with no Preparation H but I figured I'm there and have a few 9's I want to play with on vacation so what the heck.

JohnR
05-13-2022, 07:01 PM
Ha, I went to Academy this evening and saw more 9mm than I’ve seen in years. About $20/box. They had WWB .45ACP in 100 round boxes and I grabbed one, plus a 500 round box of Aguila .22 LR. Just one of each, since I left my Kentucky Jelly at home. $64 for the .45.

If only I could learn to like 9mm, my ammo angst would be lifting.

This place Sportsmans Warehouse had tons of different 9mm stuff, lots. Very little 45, some 223 but didn't like the price that good.
Lots of 22, and rifle ammo. Bunch of 40 stuff. I was just happy to not see bare shelves.

Like to get a couple cases of 45 and a few cases of 223 at a non war profiteer price and I'd be a pig in mud.

That’s not too bad for .45 acp at $32 for fifty, not great but not the prices I was seeing at the last gun show I went to a couple months ago…..If you are a .45 acp shooter then you have the best, most trusted round that is tried and true and I can’t imagine Chesty Puller ever carrying a 9mm anything because he trusted his 1911 .45 acp to do it’s job even with FMJ ammo…….The first 9mm I bought is my PM9 and I love and trust it and I bought a M&P 9mm for a house gun mainly because I don’t see so good anymore and I figure more rounds is better when there’s a bump in the night……..If you are a .45 guy then stick to it even if it costs more because history is on your side and shows it performs as advertised…….

Reluctantly gave my .45 pistols & ammo to my sons a couple of years ago because the ol’ arthritis has been creeping up on my hands & wrists. Downsized to 9mm for my “not so big bore” handguns.
Sure hated to part with the SR45, the CW45, and two 1911s.

But I am still secure with the SR9 and CW9.
Am still procrastinating about getting a Ruger Max 9 or a Sig P365.

BTW…. I bought the SR9 on a closeout sale at Sportsman’s Warehouse for $250 in December, 2019. Shoulda bought a crate full of them at that price.

A lot of the big name high speed low drag shooters, instructors etc practice with 9's and carry 45's.

One eared Admiral:
Years ago, a young Navy Pilot was injured while ejecting from his A-4
Skyhawk due to engine failure during a catapult shot from the carrier, but due
to the heroics of rescue helicopter crew and the ship's hospital staff, the
only permanent injury was the loss of one ear. Since he wasn't physically
impaired, he remained on flight status and eventually became an Admiral.
However, during his career he was always sensitive about his
appearance.

One day the Admiral was interviewing two Navy Master Chiefs and a
Marine Sergeant Major
for his personal staff. The first Master Chief was a
Surface Navy type and it was a great interview. At the end of the
interview the Admiral asked him, "Do you notice anything different about
me?" The Master Chief answered, "Why, yes, Admiral. I couldn't help but
notice that you are missing your starboard ear, so I don't know whether
this impacts your hearing on that side."

The Admiral got very angry at this lack of tact and threw him out of his
office.

The next candidate, an Aviation Master Chief, when asked this same
question, answered, "Well yes, Sir, you seem to be short one ear." The
Admiral threw him out as well.

The third interview was with the Marine Sergeant Major He was
articulate, extremely sharp, and seemed to know more than the two
Master Chiefs put together. The Admiral wanted this guy, but went ahead
with the same question. "Do you notice anything different about me?"

To his surprise, the Sergeant Major said, "Yes Sir. You wear contact lenses."

The Admiral was impressed and thought to himself, what an incredibly
tactful Marine. "And just how would you know that?" the Admiral asked.

The Sergeant Major replied: "Well, sir, it's pretty hard to wear glasses with only one f******' ear.”

Seeing that picture and thinking about the possible "safety issue" of seeing to the back with a rear view mirror caused me to remember a long gone fad. Does anyone else remember the "see through" screens with pictures on the outside for the rear glass of a pickup truck? I put one on my '68 Chevy short/stepside in 1971 and don't remember any major issues. I did take it off after a few months, but I don't remember why. I do remember seeing them quite a bit for a couple of years, but can't remember seeing anything of the sort since the late '70's.

I saw a sign today for $5.19 for diesel which is totally stupid and why independent truckers are giving up and trying to sell their big rigs but nobody in their right mind would go into trucking when it costs $800 bucks to fuel up every 3 days and you are losing any possible profit to deliver a load…..Wonder why we have “supply chain” issues, well just watch because if you can’t get food or baby formula from point A to Z then people start getting upset and wonder why our government seems hell bent on destroying the economy……..Wake up Joe, our country is hurting….

I don't really understand the antipathy toward electric cars. I guess it's because "they" want us to give up gasoline cars and be tree huggers, but we can have both. We all know electric cars run on oil, coal, nuclear, and hydroelectric, but the actual dollar cost of charging them is pretty tiny.

I know someone who bought a Kia EV and he estimated the charging at home to be something like $3-4. That was probably not a full charge, just the overnight top-off.

My hunch is the Tesla chargers rip you off, but I have no idea. Space boy needs to buy rockets.

Well, since the electricity they're charging with is generated with fossil fuels, instead of them getting tax breaks for their "green" cars we should get the break for essentially subsidizing their ability to not pay what we're paying. I know, it's twisted logic. Just trying to fit in with the lib nonsense we're surrounded by.

Mafia Book Keeper
A Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper, Guido, has cheated him out of $10,000,000.00.
His bookkeeper is deaf. That was the reason he got the job in the first place.
It was assumed that Guido would hear nothing so he would not have to testify in court.
When the Godfather goes to confront Guido about his missing $10 million, he takes along his lawyer who knows sign language.
The Godfather tells the lawyer, "Ask him where the money is!
The lawyer, using sign language, asks Guido, Where's the money?
Guido signs back, "I don't know what you are talking about." The lawyer tells the Godfather, "He says he doesn't know what you are talking about". The Godfather pulls out a pistol, puts it to Guido's head and says, "Ask him again and tell him if he doesn't answer I'll kill him!"
The lawyer signs to Guido, "He'll kill you if you don't tell him."
Guido trembles and signs back, "OK! You win! The money is in a brown briefcase, buried behind the shed at my cousin Bruno's house.
The Godfather asks the lawyer, "What did he say?" The lawyer replies,
"He says you don't have the balls to pull the trigger."
