We open with a history lesson:
Pussification Continues Apace, Part Deux: Electric Boogaloo
My daughter lives with me and owns a gun. Can I kick her out?
This week, I discovered that my intelligent, hard-working, responsible 24-year-old daughter (who lives with me) is a gun owner! And it’s not a normal gun, either — it is a 40-caliber semi-automatic, and she has hollow-point bullets to go with it. Amy, this is the kind of weapon a criminal would possess!Locked door ain't gonna do much against a .40 Skippy. The answer is almost as idiotic as the question. Don't tell him about this guy: Meet “The Most Armed Man In America” Who Has Enough Weapons To Supply A Small Army That site, TooPanda, has some amusing stuff, but OMG the Engrish! Like, for example, from this article: 10 Most Dangerous Neighborhoods In America Stated By FBI This is their entry for one of the two neighborhoods in Baltimore they mention, over by the Edgar Allen Poe House:
…..
I love my daughter and would be so sad for her to move into a place that she would hardly be able to afford, but now I have to lock my bedroom door at night because I don’t know what she’s going to do.
We’re miserable to state that the distressing scene painted on indicates like The Wire and Homicide: Life on the Street is grounded as a general rule. For every 100,000 individuals, the area by one means or another makes 9,379 rough violations.I think it translates as “We're unhappy to report that scenes from TV shows like The Wire and Homicide are based in reality. The violent crime rate for the city is 9379 crimes per 100,000 residents”, but it's hard to tell. Frankly, while that ain't a great neighborhood, I'd have no qualms about being there during the day, and there are many worse ones at night. ONT: A Play In Four Acts How I think I write the ONT:
Living In America
Finding America at a Back-Roads Gas Station I have to say, I love Salena Zito's stuff, even if she is a Yinzer. Reading it reminds me that there's a whole big country out there, far from the madding crowd of the internet. Now I need to get out to Dickerson for some fried chicken. College Student: My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us Every word of that is true, and what's more, it's intentional. When history recounts the second half of the 20th century and the first half of the 21st, our failure to root out the Gramscian viper at our bosom will be our greatest shame. The scooter carnage in America's cities Shorter version of a short article: Some people are idiots and hurt themselves playing with scooters in traffic.

that's not the kind of thing the Hatch Act was ever about in the first place. It was about the Democrats of the 30's and 40's putting their political campaign staff on the federal payroll and calling them "government" jobs.
But every President has always had a political adviser on the payroll. To say that adviser is not allowed to speak publicly is asinine.

My wife's grandparents live their entire lives in Waskom, and her father was born there - real close to the Louisiana border, about 30 miles from Shreveport. We've driven through a few times to look at 'the old home place".
Waskom won their first ever Texas State Football Championship in 2014 (they'd been competing for over 100 years). Big Deal for a little bitty town, but it's a place that loves its kids.

When I was in high school, we had a teacher who had visible head and arm tremors. We often joked that it was because he was a driver's ed teacher.
My history teacher (Korean War vet) overheard one of these stupid joke sessions, and slammed his book down hard on his desk.
"I'll tell you why Mr. M** has tremors. He fought on Guadalcanal and was grievously wounded in the shoulder and neck by Japanese shrapnel."
He then sat down, and opened his book.
Dear Lord we need more men like these.

I remember one high school teacher who was bald and who was pretty freaky, he'd have emotional outbursts. One time I remember him throwing erasers at one kid who talked in class and bugged him. Then we found out that he really did have a big steel plate in his head from the Korean War.

As if that wasn't kick-ass enough, he worked for NASA with Apollo 1 thru 13. the only reason I learned this is me, him and my dad were watching Apollo 13, and Grandpa chimed in "That young fella playing Mr. Krantz (Ed Harris) is very good, but Mr. Krantz never cussed."

Re "The Day The Music Burned," there's a ton of classic recordings, movies and TV shows that are considered hopelessly lost today.
It's especially galling because a series of fires from the 1930s to the 1960s on studio backlots destroyed so many original negatives and other artifacts. Also, the major broadcast networks would 'wipe' and erase/reuse videotape of daytime TV, soaps, live news, game shows, and sporting events (including the original 1967 Super Bowl) and did it right up pretty much until the early 1980s. Many 1960s Johnny Carson-hosted Tonight Show episodes were lost.
One of the craziest stories: almost the entire kinescope library of the 1950s-era DuMont network was destroyed in the 1970s because, according to the now-deceased star of one of their shows, the films were dumped into the East River.

Snap up every bargain basement .22 rifle deal you can find.
Lots of 2nd tier branded ones out there, such as J.C. Higgins, Western Field, Stevens, etc.
Dozen or two of those, and a couple of 5,000 rd. cases of .22 LR ammo, and you've equipped the neighbors with an easy to use weapon, and ensured ammo compatibility in the bargain.
Score the right deals on the Just Right .22 rifles, and you'll have a collection that'll at a minimum, keep pace with inflation, in terms of value.
.22s are great to use in the process of "procuring" heavier armaments, provided the requisite levels of stealth, skill and ruthlessness.
Which can be a "learned value", as needed. And talent, as it were, will naturally rise to the top in stressful conditions.

I'll look into that. But I have an inexpensive Maverick by my nightstand. Love that thing. Never failed me. I like the Mossberg design. In reality I would like to have one for both ends of the house, one in my truck, one in my wife's car.
And maybe a couple more in the rafters or something.
The problem is that 12 gauge rounds are kinda bulky.

They say more people die from .22LR than any other caliber. Which seems weird to me, but one explanation I heard was people who get hit don't realize how serious it is until it's too late.

.22 mag is a kick in the shorts. I have a single action .22 revolver that has interchangeable cylinders, .22 lr and .22 mag.
You get hit by .22 mag and you'll feel it. Might not kill you immediately, but it's got some heft.

.22 LR, especially out of a carbine, tends to go in and then bounce around inside a lot. So there's little to no blow through, all the damage stays inside. It's weird, just sort of a sweet spot of size and weight and speed.
Relatedly, Wild Bill Hickok used to load his Navy .36's light so the ball stayed inside the target.

Jah, I have a side saddle on the Benelli, for 6 more rounds. The other defensive shotties have a buttstock carrier that also holds 6 shells.

In absolute numbers? Yes.
But if you look at the stats, .22 LR is overly good at one-shot stops. (It's also the worst at 'wasn't stopped no matter how many shots' stats)
It certainly is a man-killing round and not to be taken lightly. I'm a fan of the CCI Mini Mags, which are pretty darn reliable for rimfire.

I don't have knowledge of the Just Right line, other than pawing at a couple early examples at gun shows a few years ago.
The price on those would defeat what it is I'm advocating though.
Acquiring and stockpiling cheap, simple, serviceable, shootable rifles in .22 LR. Emphasis on CHEAP.

The projectile is coming at you at the speed on the lower end of .357 Magnum velocities, but with only about 1/3 of the frontal area of the .357.
It's concentrating that energy on a far smaller group of woven Kevlar, than the larger diameter round.
Works the same way a sewing needle goes through your heavy denim.
Today's vests *ARE* certified to stop the .22. But this is a relatively well developed technology, and it improves every single year. Because, so do the synthetic fibers used to make 'em.
Back in the old days though? It was all pretty much "add more layers" in the technology.

You can kill any varmint (there is a precise definition of what constitutes pests), including deer if it's close enough to a dwelling. But you're supposed to get a permit to kill 'em in the fields.
This is close enough to the house to be legal to shoot dead, so it's close. Only problem is there's so many of 'em.
I'm gonna rig a crude 45 degree fence. Just slap something up out there.
Deer can jump a 4' fence like nothing. 6' is easy as well. You need 8' or better. However, a 45 slant confuses them and makes it hard for them to judge distance to jump.

If anyone remembers, last week or so I was talking about the carb on my B&S tiller. I got around to fixing it this afternoon.
It wasn't one of the pulse-jets with the diaphragm pump, just a straight sucker.
I took it down. Apparently one of the holes in the body was clogged. I took the needle valve out, and there was a removable jet behind it. Took that out, and there were two little hole behind it. Took the air squirter and blew it.
I couldn't get any air to come out through the throat, so I got some carb cleaner and finally got air to blow through.
Put it back together and it fired right up. Adjusted the needle and the governor and it was good to go. Running like a top now.

One of our other neighbors had a reminiscence that up until her mid 80s she would climb up on her rather steep roof via a ladder and sweep out her chimney. He told her, those days were over and he would take care of her chimney (no euphemism) from that point on. So he clambered up the ladder, shimmied perilously along the ridge line to the chimney and began to remove the spark arrester. He heard a noise and turned around and she was right behind him on the roof making sure he was doing it right.
I'd like to be that feisty in my 80's.

He has started to look at the thoughts and ideas he has, the things he constructs from random moments, and the outlook that he has had on "normal" human behavior, and he wonders if he should put himself away before he does something harmful.
I'm not sure what to tell him. He tells me that he can look at decisions he made before, and see how they are not normal, and it worries him.
So far as I can tell he has not harmed himself or others, but the idea worries him, especially the part about harming others without being aware of the harm.

The governor on that little thing is sort of trappy, IMO. It's an air baffle, blown by the flywheel fan. That provides the speed feedback that tries to close the throttle. An adjustable spring thingy pulls back and adjusts the speed.
If that flimsy thing breaks, engine would just try to run wide open.

Almost any mental illness that is mental, and not physical (chemical imbalance or disease) is fixed by the person afflicted. A therapist can only help point, the real work comes from the patient.
If they are entertaining the idea they might be ill, then they might actually benefit from a psychiatrist. Psychiatrist, not psychologist, I'm biased but the medical degree means they might be able to find organic problems as opposed to just doing a good job of listening.
Good luck to your friend.

Congrats, publius! I remember telling you about those two little holes. They are tiny, but crucial.
A couple days ago, I worked on a Clark (Melroe) Spra-Coupe with a VW industrial engine in it. Took the carb off. It had sediment in the bowl, and several of the jets were plugged solid; also the accelerator pump discharge nozzle. Cleaned 'em all out, put the carb back on, and it runs like a pup. Buddy took it out, and ran it up a hill, one that he could not climb with it before.

Mr. B., a science teacher, came by and started pointing out on the game board, a map of Normandy, all the towns that he had gone through. He was in Army intelligence. Analyst, from what I could glean.
Dad, who was in the Reserve when he was young, said Mr. B. was his instructor. Dad said they once learned to throw knives.
God, we all loved Mr. B.
For that matter, the principal -- a fat guy -- had been a Navy frogman. I wondered what he had looked like then.
Paternal grandpa's cousin came back from Europe as a first lieutenant with honors for heroism -- and a drinking problem. Grandpa often had to bail him out, I overheard. He finally stopped drinking. I would encounter him on trips to town. I loved our conversations.
Oh, and a family friend enlisted as a conscious objector. He became an ambulance driver, and I would have bet that he saw more blood than most G.I.s did.
All gone now. Thank God we had such men.

The fundamental thing you need to understand about Japanese culture is that it has absolutely no concept of an intermediate setting. Whatever a Japanese person decides to do is always done full-bore.
This applies no matter whether the thing in question is conquering Asia or becoming a turbo nerd. "Set up a massive barbarian horde to loot, rape and murder our way across the Asian continent? BANZAI!!!!" "Become so fucking nerdy and introverted that we can no longer even masturbate to pictures of real women, only cartoon characters? BANZAI!!!!!"

These tillers don't have a hand a throttle control at all. Speed is set by that little arm that pulls the spring. I guess that was just saving cost or something to avoid having to run some throttle cable.
The governor on my push mower,which is a Tecumseh, is some shaft on the side of the crankcase. Some internal thing.
The governor on the old riding mower, I can't remember -- I think it was a shaft coming out of the crankcase as well.

Those who have spent time on the West Coast or in Alaska probably remember Cal Worthington, who had an extremely goofy hick persona he used to sell cars.
Cal dropped out of school at age 13, in the depths of the Depression. He joined the Army Air Corps when WWII came along and managed to get a commission despite his poor education, then flew 29 combat missions over Germany. He was discharged as aCaptain. Five Air Medals. Distinguished Flying Cross presented by Jimmy Doolittle himself.
I didn't know about that until his obituary, either.

No, I appreciated that. This is some straight sucker. The pick-up tube is fairly long. That thing was clear, though I did clean the little screen as best I could.
There was some odd "baffle" thing inside the throat on the engine side. The carb is a long body, and it's a fairly long throat from the throttle plate to the intake port.
And inside was this twisted baffle looking thing. I have no idea what the function is.

The .308 part would be legal for deer, no doubt.
But if your state has a 5 round limit on the rifle, then you'll have to do some Harry Potter grade scrounging in the aftermarket magazine field.
OR, you can take a common 10 round AR-10 magazine, and insert 1/2 inch pins in the front and rear flats of the magazine, thus preventing the follower from descending into the magazine body. Set those pins where the magazine can only hold FOUR rounds.
With one in the chamber, there's your Five Round Limit.
Restrictive States based that on the (then) everyman's Mauser/Springfield/Enfield/ bolties, which were the pattern for untold millions of "Civilian" bolt action sporting rifles, ever since.
Which is why comparatively few SMLE pattern rifles were sporterized, in comparison to the Mausers and Springfields, and to a lesser extent, Enfields.
Oh, and do be careful how you construct your "blind" for these nuisance deer.
The more it looks like a Spontaneous Shot was taken, the fewer hassles you're likely to incur.

I used to work with a lady who was really unlucky. She would always get attacked by aggressive deer in her yard and have to defend herself from the gang of crazed deer that roamed her woods.
When they weren't attacking her they would wander in the road and cause freak accidents where they'd wind up getting hit in the damnedest way, and it would just leave a .270" hole through the thorax. Luckily her truck never got damaged too bad.

Mr. Jones would bring his Buick in that sometimes wouldn't turn over, and you'd diagnose it, remove the starter, replace the armature with a dead spot in it, change out the brushes , reinstall it and off he'd go.

The deer population has exploded around here. One persistent rumor which is denied forcefully, is that the wildlife dept actually brought deer up her to increase the population.
Many believe they did that, but they deny that heatedly.

Theoretically digital technology can make perfect copies of everything eventually so that no one disaster can have such a detrimental effect, but then there's also too much material to transfer in any kind of timely fashion. Plus the recording industry is in kind of a scrambling mode right now, and only wants to do what makes money for itself.
So the end result is that probably even more priceless recordings, videotapes and other artifacts will end up destroyed, before the problem ever goes away entirely.

Electronic ignition (in a distributor, not crank-triggered) basically works right on spec until it doesn't, and then it usually fails outright.
You can carry a replacement module and pickup coil, and change them on the roadside, if need be. But it doesn't need routine maintenance every 10k miles.
And it's getting harder and harder to find good quality ignition points in auto supply stores. Some of the stuff sold now is crap.

He's called "Mattress Mack", and he's the most successful, One Store (until he grew to 3 stores a few years back) furniture store, EVER.
His ONE STORE on I-45 North in Houston, was in the TOP TWENTY furniture retailers in the USA, and that's versus major chains like Star, Bassett, LaZBoy, etc.
Difference is, while Mattress Mac has the drive, the marketing savvy, the work ethic and the genius of Cal Worthington, he brings in a degree of honesty, candor, generosity and charity, heretofore not seen in the retail world.
If you're ever staying in the Greater Houston TV market, be sure to keep an eye out for Gallery Furniture TV commercials. Better still...visit Gallery Furniture at the I-45 North location.
You're very likely to meet Mac, there at his post at the front doors.
And you'll be in awe of the store, it's offerings, and staff.
Nary a scrap of Made in China furniture there, now. (he did dabble in it one, and junked the stock in short order, it was crap!)
The staff works with a Chick Fil A kind of positivity, enthusiasm and drive.
Speaking of drive.
You buy something there, you'd best be home three hours later.
Because they're GOING TO DELIVER IT, right about then.
The only "backorders" at Gallery Furniture are on true, custom order pieces.
The Rest? You bought it. It'll be in your home, TODAY!*

I actually killed a deer with that LR-308 a few years ago. Same thing, nuisance, shot her right out in the garden.
I had some cheap soft point ammo in the thing, and it did a number on the carcass. Sort of splodey. I called a buddy of mine and they got the thing and dressed it out. He said I did waste some meat, but there was still a lot of good stuff on it.
I or my father killed one out in the field a few months before that. There were a bunch way down there in the field, sneaking out of the woods, and would've come on up come dark. They did that over a couple days.
Now get this, both my father and I just grabbed a little .22 rifle and shot through them down there just to scare them.
A couple of days later, I noticed buzzards circling. Damned if there wasn't a dead deer out there. One of us managed to kill one with a .22, not even trying.
I took the front end loader and disposed of it, covering him up.

The difference is "plus-sized" and "curvy" are euphemisms and everybody knows that. It's not like fat girls don't know they're fat, and sometimes it's rude to be blunt.
That said, the "healthy at any size" idea some feminists are promoting is simply factually incorrect and needs to be stomped until it dies. Being fat is not healthy.

Taylor Swift's latest song has a new target: homophobes.
Coinciding with the announcement of her seventh album, "Lover," the pop star on Thursday released a new tune called "You Need to Calm Down," where she addresses her own haters but also calls out those who attack the LGBTQ community.
At one point on the beat-laden track, Swift sings: "And control your urges to scream about all the people you hate/ 'Cause shade never made anybody less gay."
At another point she sings: "You need to just stop, like can you just not step on his gown?"

I had a gay friend. Even stayed at his house once. In the spare bedroom, He was dying of AIDS at the time, although I did not know that then. A few months later... He was one of the "early adopters", and those folks always pay the most for "new tech". Odds are he caught it from Patient #1 himself; he ran with that crowd.

It's not the plovers, it's the whackos, but the whackos have made me hate the plovers.

Earlier today, you'd mentioned New Orleans Beignets.
Right here, the Gumbo Diner, on Seawall Blvd., Galveston.

I will attempt to blend in
There used to be a strip bar somewhat nearby named "Bambi's". A few of my older gentlemen customers would jokingly tell me to tell their wives that were at the Deer Lodge, if they came by looking for them.
My understanding is many of the ladies at Bambi's fell more squarely into the "big-boned" category rather than the "curvy" category, but that apparently was not a deterrent for those fellows as they said it was only $5 to get in + $1 for each beer they brought in with them.
Standards vs Affordability, always a pressing debate.

.....
Tennessee has a two-tiered Strip Club rule as near as I can tell.
A strip bar may have frontal nudity, but may not sell alcohol.
Or
It may require pasties and a g-string and be permitted sell alcohol.
But, you may not have nudity and sell alcohol.
Thus, clubs of the former variety allow patrons to bring in alcohol but they must pay the establishment for the privilege to do so.

Being non-nuclear, it'd be exempt from any SALT limitations, and so they could resurrect damn near every remaining flyable airframe from Davis Monthan.
But with B-52 range and mid-air refueling, it could fly far enough out to deliver payload far beyond the range of wind and current, thus ensuring a true consignment to the deep.
Helicopters, though "satisfying" lack the efficiency to perform the necessary duties in the quantities required for success.

But as they get older and as they're fan base gets older, they are too old to appear on Disney shows so their handlers tell them that they must become edgy whores to shed their innocent reputation.
And so you get Miley Cyrus acting like a stupid whore eating an abortion cake, twerking and smoking dope.

naw: too expensive:
current model C-130s.
load to capacity w/o seats, then climb to altitude, and slowly normalize cargo area air pressure. (crew on oxygen)
once anoxia sets in, lower the ramp and go into a climb. gravity does the rest
lather, rinse , repeat.

And Mannix gets a Rottweiler sicked on him. It was funny, the rottweiler was a happy boy, nice boy, with his tongue out panting. They overdubbed vicious dog growls.
The dog jumped on Mannix, with much snarling dubbed over. But the dog was just playing, you could see him trying to lick Mannix when he jumped him.

When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."
