Quotes of The Day Quote I
The only way you can beat the lawyers is to die with nothing. Will Rogers
Quote II
When the doctrine of allegiance to party can utterly up-end a man's moral constitution and make a temporary fool of him besides, what excuse are you going to offer for preaching it, teaching it, extending it, perpetuating it? Shall you say, the best good of the country demands allegiance to party? Shall you also say it demands that a man kick his truth and his conscience into the gutter, and become a mouthing lunatic, besides? Mark TwainQuote III
School teachers, taking them by and large, are probably the most ignorant and stupid class of men in the whole group of mental workers. H.L Mencken

As the moon hung high in the morning Cincinnati sky, an eccentric aeronaut blasts one last puff of coal gas into his balloon, the "Enterprise." It is April 20, 1861, and just eight days earlier the first shots had rang out at Fort Sumter and ignited the Civil War, a conflict that would eventually claim nearly 625,000 American lives. But on this day, dressed in a fancy silk hat and a black long frock coat, Prof. Thaddeus Lowe prepares for his latest and most important test flight. He knew that a divided Union would need him—and his balloon.
Animals are just like people. When it comes to being coordinated, some just didn't inherit the athletic gene. But if these great pets didn't make the flyball championship team or get teased at the dog park — so what? They have amazing personalities and really, isn't it just about how hard you try?
When you think of Dildo and Climax what do you think of? Get your mind out of the gutter you Morons.
May 10, 1969, Frank Sinatra's version of 'My Way' made the British Top ten for the first time. Over the next three years it re-entered the Top 50 singles chart on eight different occasions. Paul Anka re-wrote the original French song for Sinatra, after he told Anka he was quitting the music business. Anka changed the melodic structure and lyrics to the song with Sinatra in mind. via thisdayinmusic.com
May 10, 1960, Born on this day, Paul Hewson, (Bono), vocals, guitar, U2, (1984 UK No.3 single 'Pride, In The Name Of Love' plus over 25 other UK Top singles, 1987 UK and worldwide No.1 album The Joshua Tree spent 156 weeks on the UK chart. Scored five consecutive US No.1 albums from 1987.) via thisdayinmusic.com

Functional intimacy, one learns something new everyday. "Can’t touch this: The psychological effects of functional intimacy"
Whether a nurse is prepping you for a shot at the doctor's office or you are being patted down at the airport before catching a flight, functionally intimate situations are often unavoidable. While being touched in these professional settings might be necessary for your health or safety, the sensation of being touched by a stranger is obviously very different than being touched by a lover or friend. How do people react when in these situations of unavoidable functional intimacy?
Alcohol is all fun and games until it's not anymore. It's clear that heavy drinking damages your insides—and possibly some relationships and bar stools. But much more can be destroyed when people start to become dependent on alcohol—which the NHS estimates in the UK is about 9 percent of men and 4 percent of women.
One could say A.A. is for quitters.
Canada is experiencing a nation-wide recall of Bombay Sapphire London Dry Gin. The pull comes from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency after it was discovered that bottles had much more alcohol than advertised.A fitting song for the situation at hand.
The bronze statue of the two famous Second World War leaders sitting on a bench – called simply Allies – was unveiled in Mayfair, central London in 1995 to commemorate 50 years of peace. The sculpture, with Sir Winston holding a cigar in his left hand, was unveiled by Princess Margaret on May 2, 1995 after being made by sculptor Lawrence Holofcener, who died at the age of 91 last month.
And then there was Wenona, the Sioux girl. Wenona, Cummins proclaimed, was not only the “champion rifle shot of the world,” but also the daughter of a chief named Crazy Horse and a white woman, born in a “tepee on the south bank of the Big Cheyenne, near Fort Bennett, Dakota,” and only 18 years old. Cummins offered a $1,000 reward to anyone who could best Wenona with a rifle at the Exhibition. Her extraordinary shooting prowess, he crowed, had been bestowed upon her by supernatural spirits of the Indian world. In fact, “Wenona” was not a Sioux teen. She was 29-year-old Lillian Frances Smith, the daughter of a white Quaker couple from New England. A former performer in William “Buffalo Bill” Cody’s Wild West show, she had earned the scorn of the legendary Annie Oakley and had been cast aside to make her own way in the world.
Last week some wag remarked that the best thing about Trump's First Hundred Days is that they weren't Hillary's First Hundred Days. This clip will make you a believer. Alice Cooper, Schadenboners & Bittersweet Tears. Wonderful. Some shit never gets old.
. How many folks, I wonder, who have engaged in the Tiny House Movement have ever actually lived in a tiny, mobile place? Because what those who can afford homes call “living light,” poor folks call “gratitude for what we’ve got.” And it’s not just the Tiny House Movement that incites my discontent. From dumpster diving to trailer-themed bars to haute cuisine in the form of poor-household staples, it’s become trendy for those with money to appropriate the poverty lifestyle — and it troubles me for one simple reason. Choice.
Choice? The ONT is so confused. We thought Choice was good. Only when the "Precious, Gifted & Our Betters tell us when "choice" is good or bad. A Moron needs a score card to keep track.
Just when you thought people didn't care anymore. Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.

We had a big one rip through the northern Dallas suburbs around March of 2016. So many people driving around with bashed-in windows and so many houses with plywood over windows, skylights, and roofs. It wasn't until the end of the year when contractors finally finished all the work. We escaped with fairly minor damage.

ha ... no, all history says real dispute is eventually decided at the end of a barrel of a gun. Lying lawyers only win if the false premise of a "just system" is honored with full submission, regardless of the corruption and deceit observed in the system.
"WE" exist because we did not accept that false premise, and we executed those that would have imprisoned us by the misarranged letter of their perverted law.
Right in that quote is a partial answer ... "Beat the (slimy lying corrupt) lawyers"

One to a bunch of friends, asking for pictures, and one to just me, asking to confirm that I had received it.
So cool!!
And this is just too cool:
Joyce's friend Jessica took her golfing this afternoon! Joyce drove the cart for 4 holes. They really enjoyed themselves on this extremely hot afternoon. Next week, Joyce and Her friend Roni will join the "dirty divas" mountain biking group for lunch- they're all looking forward to seeing her.
(Joyce was an avid mountain biker before the tumor)
Please keep praying that the time she has left is filled with joy.

A few years ago, my partners and I bought a 35' Hunter sailboat to refurb and resell. Made a decent profit when we sold. Anyway, I did a fair amount of the work, and I basically lived aboard for 3 months while I was getting things fixed up.
That convinced me that the whole TinyHouse thing is fucking retarded. Aside from the whole "when you live on a boat, everything stays damp all the time" thing, it's draining to live in such a small space.

I've never seen baseball-sized hail, but I have endured storms with golfball-sized hail a couple of times. One year, I had just come back from a road trip with a '53 Studebaker coupe on the trailer. I'd gotten it running, and drove it a quarter mile up the road to the neighbors' place to show it off. We sat in the kitchen, drinking beer, and the hailstorm started. Got a picture of grape-sized and larger hail pelting the old Studebaker, which did nothing more than clean the moss off the paint.
At home, a quarter mile south, my '96 Suburban got a load of dents, and both outside mirrors were smashed. The hail also nuked the shingles on the roofs of the house and garage, and punched big holes in the vinyl siding on both buildings. I got an insurance settlement, and ponied up some more money, and gave both house and garage a steel roof, and stucco instead of siding.

true story: lots of folks in LA are ditching their houses and living in RVs.
the politician's solutions?
create overnight parking areas for them, so they can drive in, hook up, and sleep, then kick them out in the AM and let them park all over the city.
i'll leave it as an exercise to the reader as to what effect this will have on the number of people living that way, and what effect it will have on tax rolls.

I have that bad habit, with tools and equipment. I could live in a small efficiency, as long as it's the 2nd story over a two car garage with attached workshop(s).
Inasmuch that I plan to retire aboard something along the lines of a 52 ft. Irwin, I'll actually have a lot more room belowdecks than even a 40 ft. diesel pusher RV with four slide-outs.
But yeah, those wildly over-priced tiny houses are a scam.

Lately I feel like I've been losing a bit mentally. Like I lose about a point or two of IQ a month. I feel like I'm not up to things I used to be.
Maybe this is stress...the last few years have been an absolute motherfucker, for sure...but I'm starting to worry my failure to take proper care of myself is taking a toll.
The problem is I'm scared shitless of getting checked on that. I'm trying to forge some kind of future for myself and...well, you can all imagine the potential for that to go to hell just for getting checked.
So...now what...?

Interesting. I'm no fan of crowds but I come from a touching family. Some sort of physical intimacy is expected.
Texas and southern culture is also big on touching, as you know. I was listening to a waitress just a few days ago who is going through tough times and she reached out and held my hand. It was only my second time to meet her.
Church is the same: hugs or firm handshakes.
I understand that some people aren't touchers and I don't consider it to be a fault. There's certainly nothing wrong with you. I have friends who won't even shake hands except when they absolutely can't avoid it. I respect that.

but then again, since i was Delta on an M-220 variant, which had a combat load of 10 TOW missiles, racked on the engine side, each with a launch motor, flight motor and one or more HEAT warheads, i figured that, should the balloon go up, i'd drift home on the wind, at least the parts of me that weren't permanently embedded in the pool of slag where my track used to be, or fertilizing the local countryside.

I think that when statesmen forsake their own private conscience for the sake of their public duties, they lead their country by a short route to chaos. -Uttered by Sir Thomas More in A Man For All Seasons by Robert Bolt
The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others. His own good, either physical or moral, is not a sufficient warrant. He cannot rightfully be compelled to do or forbear because it will be better for him to do so, because it will make him happier, because, in the opinions of others, to do so would be wise, or even right. These are good reasons for remonstrating with him, or reasoning with him, or persuading him or entreating him, but not for compelling him, or visiting him with any evil, in case he do. -John Stuart Mill

I have a friend (long story) in her early twenties who wants to build one that's about 250 square feet on a parcel of land she owns outright south of Dallas. The property has utility connections and she plans to live there permanently.
The cost: about $80,000.
In her area, she could easily build an 1,800 square foot real home.
She lacks good judgment in most areas of her life.

Of course, no good plan goes off without a hitch, and one of the speakers I was using went open with no warning, after having worked here in the basement. Put a new driver in the box, and now I have stereo music in the shop, sourced from one of many, many mp3's of streaming audio I recorded over the years. Plenty loud, plenty clear, and no discernible hum.
I will probably cut a slit in the turf with my half-moon edger, and bury the line a few inches deep. It doesn't carry any power; just a volt or two of audio.

it gets better: the injury happened right at the end of AT.
day 1: injury (washed, bandaged, sent back to the field.)
day 2: debridement (see above)
day 3: home station and off to LBNH for treatment (told to FOAD as i was just NG, and no different than a CHP officer with non-life threatening wounds)
day 3 late at home: knew no one in my chain, so called OTAG and got duty officer. relayed tale of woe. BN XO called 15 mikes or so later, said not to worry.
day 4: went back to LBNH with other injured GIs from the unit, and unit leadership. everyone was told to FOAD, as the USN didn't know where $$$ was going to come from to pay for it all. Some kindly RN dragged me into a treatment room and removed, cleaned and redressed my wound, and said "F the Chief" when her peer said that wasn't a good idea, as the Chief would be mad. 1st Sainthood nomination i ever made.
day 5 on: got treatment at LAAFS, whilst NGB, etc fought the issue out.

Then also on guitar, but really just to play along with the right rhythm, is the part for the Avett Brothers "True Sadness," the version done when they play live. Sounds sort of cajun to me.

She lives on the lot now in an old travel trailer that's falling apart.
She's a good person and I have a minor amount of obligation for her well-being, but like many people her age, she's not mature enough to make good decisions.

It's Texas. Some cities have no zoning restrictions, right?
But if they'd let her put up a "tiny house", which is just a shack on wheels, they ought to accept a real RV.
Or buy an old travel trailer, re-skin it with faux brick siding, and presto! Instant "tiny house".

Motorcycle wreck, involuntarily donated a Gold Wing to medical science, circa Oct. '98.
Malicious ER staff administered only "pediatric" dose of Demerol. Later that night, Ortho, even with administering horse sedative of some kind, chose to manually set greentree fracture of tibula.
That "horse sedative", woke right up and passed up Secretariat at the Belmont.
The docs were lucky they were working on lower extremities, and not within arms reach. I was looking to kill one or both of them.
Oddly, that one has healed and never really bothers me, after.
Next day though, they put me into four + hour surgery, to rebuild my left ankle with four stainless drywall screws.
That one STILL HURTS.
I did have the good sense though, before going into that surgery, to ask 'em to debride and change the dressing on the road rash abrasion on my right forearm, while I was well and truly OUT.
That's a bit of pain I dodged. A rarity.

One of the central tenets of the broader Left is an axiomatic worldview of oppressors and the oppressed, the former gaining their lofty status through unearned privilege. In this Rawlsian view, because some children had a better upbringing than others, those who grew up in a good family had unearned privilege which must be countered in order to equalize society so that those without said unearned privilege will be on an equal status. From this, the Leftist secular catechisms oft wail, a utopia will spring forth based upon that Philosopher's Stone of absolute equity.

When I saw a young dog wandering up by the shed, I presumed it was a neighbor's, and sent big son out to chase the dog off. Son ran to him, arms in the air, boogala-boogling, and the dog just laid down on his back. Knew right then, he was ours.
Son got the naming privilege, and chose Gimli. I didn't think it fit him, but what could I say? After all these years, he's still good old Gimli.
And he does like his kerchief, I think. Like he likes his bed and his blanket.

Hammer. But there may not be one, per se.
It may be that the firing pin itself is spring loaded, cocked, and held/released by the sear. I assume that it is manually cocked, via a knob on the end of the bolt?

The spring operating the striker may be old too or gobbed up with old oil
It was a thing to use linseed oil on guns, and old Hoppes, as wonderful as it is, can polymerize into peanut butter-like goo just like old linseed oil.
If the spring is weak that can make the firing pin strike go weak.

If nothing else, let it sit overnight in a bath of Automatic Transmission Fluid.
Next day, clean it in copious amounts of Kerosene.
Then flood it with your favorite Gun Oil.
If it doesn't work then, quit Fn with it, and take it to a gunsmith.
Besides. It is a foreign bolt assembly to your rifle.
Even in .22 LR, headspace is a thing. Get this thing seen to by the best you can find, and get it all tuned as a whole.

No. STRIKER, not "hammer".
Striker is released by the sear, and is directly powered by the mainspring.
Striker / Mainspring channel is what's most often fouled by powder residue, and is the direct cause of soft striker strikes on the new cartridge.
Ultrasonic cleaners are the .22 bolties friend.

Speaking of guns (!), did the paperwork for an S ampersand W Model 60 this afternoon. Very good condition, CrimsonTrace grips (whose value, alone, made the deal a good one). Idea is that this might become the boss's bedside hospitality accessory - only centerfire handgun she's liked so far is a Colt snub that's too valuable to use in this role.
If this plan comes to naught ..... oops, another revolver in the stable (and Smith, and laser grips) . Hate when that happens.

Yes, you assume right. The firing pin seems to "float" in the bolt, even though the hammer is down. I have a can of GibbsOil, which is some miracle-in-a-can stuff. I will give the bolt a shot with that. Seller warned me about how to ensure bolt is tight, but not too tight, and how to adjust it.

Disassemble the bolt.
Posted by: Mike Hammer
1. Inspect face of firing pin for damage
2. Inspect firing pin and bolt and make sure the firing pin can freely travel. Look to see how far the firing pin extends out from the bolt face. Make sure pin is not bent/damaged preventing full forward movement.
3. Inspect chamber face. Make sure there are no dents or chips in the spot that supports the cartridge rim where the firing pin strikes it.
I don't know Cooeys and these are generic rimfire checks. Dry firing can lead to the problems in the above inspection points in many (not all) rimfires.

Thank you.
1. Face of firing pin seems square and flat with no burrs.
2. Fully forward, it is flush with the front face of the bolt, meaning it's slightly raised above the round recess in the face of the bolt that accepts the base of the cartridge. But it can be pushed back a little.
3. Haven't looked at the face of the chamber. The rifle worked fine until the original bolt got lost.
My working hypothesis is that the back end of the firing pin is worn or damaged, or there is a divot in the end of the striker where it hist the firing pin. And gummy lube inside the bolt my be exacerbating the issue.
Step one: get fresh lube into bolt. If that fixes it, good. If not, go to step two: disassemble bolt, and examine internals for wear.
