September Silliness and Frivolity. Fun stuff.

Probably the air control district forgot to clean their sampler filters for the last several months.

As for light sabers.... isn't that what those gun things are? You know the ones that shine a spot on the wall?

Why does this guy

look familiar? Could it be Mr. B?

Dunno, but he's apparently happy to be kayaking

[Bawanna]

Hard to envision the Missouri in kayak size. I'd love to have that. We kayak some in lakes. That would be way cooler.

[MW surveyor]

Just think. You could load up the guns with 45's and master everything on the lake!

There was once a snail who was sick and tired of his reputation for being so slow. He decided to get some fast wheels to make up the difference. After shopping around a while, he decided that the Datson 240-Z was the car to get. So the snail goes to the nearest Datsun dealer and says he wants to buy the 240-Z, but he wants it repainted "240-S".

The dealer asks, "Why 'S'?"

The snail replies, "'S' stands for snail. I want everybody who sees me roaring past to know who's driving."

Well, the dealer doesn't want to lose the unique opportunity to sell a car to a snail, so he agrees to have the car repainted for a small fee.

The snail gets his new car and spent the rest of his days roaring happily down the highway at top speed. And whenever anyone would see him zooming by, they'd say "Wow! Look at that S-car go!"

I remember how the company got its name. The Japanese told their German engineer that they needed a new name for the company by the end of the day. The engineer was incredulous and asked "Dat soon?"

Both groaners! Had to edit this to make it PC.

A few years later, they were having some kind of identity crisis and decided to change the company name. Why? They got an idea team together and they worked for days. Then, the CEO came and said, "Show me what you've got." They started presenting ther ideas to him. He would consider each thoughtfully, then say "That's a nice-un" and go on to the next. After several of them, he said that again and then he acted like a light came on. He said, "Wait a minute. Nice-un...nice-un...Nissan! I think I have it!"

Guns don't kill people, doctors do

Doctors vs. Guns

Doctors:

• The number of physicians in the U.S. is 700,000
• Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year are 120,000
• Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171

Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of Health Human Services.


Guns:

• The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000
• The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups, is 1,500
• The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .000188.

Statistics courtesy of F.B.I.

Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.

Remember, "Guns don't kill people, doctors do."

FACT: Not everyone has a gun, but almost everyone has at least one doctor.

Please alert your friends to this alarming threat immediately. We must ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand!

I'd like to get that on a T shirt!

That is hilarious!

Chiappa M4 22LR Pistol - Very Interesting...

I just found this at Bud's:

Chiappa M4 22LR Pistol with 2 28-round magazines and a Red Dot sight. Price $398.


This is not a whole lot more than a Ruger or Browning 22 pistol. But look at what you get! Two 28 round mags, and a red dot sight. No tree rat within 100 yards would have a chance! :33:

Funny thing is that I can't find it on the Chiappa website. All they show is a 22lr M4 upper. But look at the selection of these Chiappa M4 22s that Bud's has:
http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/a...pa+M4+&x=0&y=0

I guess Chiappa's website isn't correct.

I think I'd rather have one of the carebines, but only this one says it has the red dot. I wonder if Bud's is correct about that being included? I don't see it in the picture or reflected in the price compared to the other models. If I bought it and it didn't come with a red dot, wouldn't Bud's owe me one?

New less lethal toy...

Just stumbled upon this on the Bloomberg news site. According to the article, "Rather than firing a bullet to the head, how about sticking a pin into a balloon? That's the idea behind this game device, which resembles a revolver and contains a spring-loaded pin for puncturing a balloon that's attached to the muzzle. A player can place the balloon against his head "to make the game more exciting," according to the patent filing. A similar device was previously marketed, but the inventor claims his version has a safer pin mechanism."


The inventor is Steve Zuloff of Los Angeles County, California. I wonder if Paul at PJ could make a kydex IWB hoster for it?

An airplane was about to crash; there were 5 passengers on board, but only 4 parachutes.
The first passenger, Sarah Palin said, "I have my own reality show and I am the smartest woman in American history, so America ’s people don’t want me to die.” She took the first pack and jumped out of the plane.
The second passenger, John McCain, said, “I’m a Senator, and a decorated war hero from an elite Navy unit from the United States of America ”. So he grabbed the second pack and jumped..
The third passenger, Barack Obmama said, "I am the President of the United States and I am the smartest ever in the history of our country, some even call me the Anointed One." So he grabbed the pack next to him and jumped out.
The fourth passenger, Billy Graham said to the fifth passenger, a 10-year-ol d schoolgirl, “I have lived a full life, and served my God the best I could. I will sacrifice my life and let you have the last parachute.”
The little girl said, “That’s okay Dr. Graham. There’s a parachute left for you. America’s smartest President took my schoolbag."
