Carbody working mallet.

Hopefully some of his offspring will become as large as he was.

You'll sure get a real hot flash out of them.

Yup. The days of the old brown boot army are long gone.

Sap. Lead filled sack to knock the crap out of someone.

Likewise. Some of my mounts have "deficiencies" which I left intact. It tells the story of the old guy's struggles and lends some individuality. Life in the bush ain't easy.

Bottle stopper.

Been there, done that. My second safari I sighted in the day of arrival, hit just where I wanted. Next day my PH and I went hunting. Spotted a nice springbok at about 100yds. Took the shot and saw dirt fly right under his belly. Clean miss. Two more misses that day at under 200 yds. Couldn't...

Me in the 1940s and 50s. Neither rain nor snow nor heat etc etc shall keep me from catching the bus

P38 can opener.

"The fun is not in the kill, the fun is in the stalk," I tell myself.

Maybe that's what caused my back problems.

Stonehenge

Perfect place for the whole family. And take the Clintons with them.

Small flashlight with a clip for cap bill or headband light, both with a red lens. Frees up your hands and red lens protects night vision.

Like the old saying, GIGO" (garbage in garbage out.) Not overly trustworthy.

Typewriter eraser.

Merry Christmas to all and yours. May the new year bring only the best.

Truth. Every politician's worst nightmare.

60F, sunny and bright. Light wind. Nice change after a week of near gale force winds and rain.

T post driver.

Astounding, disgusting, assinine action by politicians BUT who put them in that position? The not so bright public by voting them in. You(they) wanted it, voted for it, got it. Now you (they) have to shut up and live with it. Hopefully next time people will wise up and vote intelligently.

spark plug gapper

glass cutter

Beautiful. Really like the gray laminate.

There is just something about the 9.3x62 that really struck a chord with me. I had a plain CZ and it was one of my favorite rifles, the way it felt, handled, accuracy. I need another gun like I need a hole in the head but if MRC ever builds one I would be very tempted. I don't hunt anymore but...

ash tray.

Some come and some go but very few have the staying power as the tried and true 30-06. Still as effective an all round caliber as anything out there.

I set my personal hunting limit at 300 yds regardless of rifle or game. If I feel a shot is getting much over 200 yds I have my Ph range it and compensate accordingly. My longest shot to date is 286 yds off sticks at a springbok. Couldn't get closer because it was open range and no cover. I'd...

Cheese slicer.

Yup. Ckalkboards and one room schools.

YES!!

Oh, yes, and iodine. Sometimes made me which was worse, the hurt or the cure.

Oh, there is nothing as much fun as watching the weekend warriors coming in to the dock on Sunday PM. Some of the antics they go through "trying" to get boats back on trailers is utterly amazing. I've seen people back trucks down and then forget to set the brake resulting in a drowned truck...

Hey! A good homemade fruitcake is quite tasty. I like it.

Different kind of fruitcake.

Bicycle lights and generator. Had one on my bike.

Folding 6 foot rule.

My buddy and I got a wild hair and "borrowed" an old guy's boat and went out on the pond. We were about 5 years old at the time and invincible, so we thought. We were doing pretty good til the wind came up and I lost my paddle. We couldn't get to it, then Gil lost his paddle. We were drifting...

Yup. In the military, "Ours is to do or die, not to question why."

Old fashion steam iron.

Yeah, that will work but I was thinking harness or saddle leather.

Yup. Sounds like we have another looney troll lurking about.

There's just something about the smell of good leather.

I've shot a boatload of PPU in handguns, shotguns and rifles and have always been very impressed with it's accuracy. High volume shooting in 3 gun competition and training.

Just seen on the back of a cesspool cleaning truck: Another load of politician's promises.

Definition of an expert: An ex is a has been and a spurt is a drip under pressure. Tact: The art of telling someone to go to hell and having him look forward to the trip.

I wonder how many d names are on that list.

Amen. It's something I wouldn't take a million dollars for , but wouldn't give a penny to do again. I did one hitch and stayed out for 11 years. The economy tanked in 1975, I had a young family and construction didn't cut it. I talked to the Navy( I was a former Seabee) but they had no openings...

WTF?? Just what we don't need. Half a million spies running loose.
