My hips are so bad I couldn’t get a leg over the seat and sidesaddle doesn’t let you shift 🙁 the good news is that the waiting list for a new one is down to three years now, but with MAID they’ll kill you while you wait…that’s what socialized medicine is, don’t fall for it.

Old man, old school video game club – “The Creaking Doom Gang”
Who’s invested in Gold Baum this week?
Regular near everyone I know bitching about swamp ass, and it’s not about D.C.
Brits laud about black powder in November being a cure all.
What’s the equivalent to GB for our government?
After the SA comes the Prickly Heat, though. I remember that Mash episode.
Years ago, I noticed there was a small advertisement in one of those cheap fliers for knives and novelty items. The ad was for a bowie knife that had the wooden handle made from one of the Liberty Trees. Every State supposedly had one of those meeting places for The Sons Of Liberty. I bought it. it was so inexpensive i couldn’t resist. Wooden case and a beautiful knife. I think it was two hundred dollars. It’s hanging next to this computer on the wall.
I’ve got a very nice and very sharp basket hilted broadsword standing beside my desk…cultural heritage y’know 😉

Video at MidwayUSA is worth the watch.

‘sword canes’ are illegal here but Cold Steel Shillelagh walking sticks aren’t…mine is for cultural purposes 😉
Speaking of cultural, I’ve been thinking about calling my Gerber pocket knife a ‘kirpan’ to show solidarity with the sikhs the liebrals imported…they can’t fault that.
No meetings up here for Canada Day, the gov’t discourages any celebrations because it makes their imported ‘immigrants’ feel unwanted…I just hope nobody decides to mark the occasion by making your 4th of July ‘another day that will live in infamy’…wouldn’t want to see liebral politicians strain their arms patting the perpetrators on the back.
Between the islamics claiming this country, all Western heritage countries, as theirs, and the demonrat socalists admitting that communism is their goal, another war may start up. Keep necesasary items dry.
Why is it that the ones clamouring for a civil war are the ones that won’t own guns ? Once you let them take yours though…the shipping containers open and they’ll have lots…AK’s, RPD’s and RPG all stamped ‘made in Iran’.
One of the dubious advantages of having a lot of hardware and screws from ankle to knee from a Gold Wing crash 12 years ago is the need to use a cane. Mine’s nothing fancy, just a T-handled aluminum tube off the rack at Walmart- – – – -with a pound of bullet casting lead poured into the tip! It makes for a very effective “attitude adjuster”!
Ah, Wing Nuts! So many of us remember the good old days when they were actual motor cycles and not just Interstate limos. Rode one for years, for both pleasure and work, in mainly urban areas. Did undertake a few long rides back in the mid ’80’s. Good times indeed!
Had a ’77 w/Vetter Windjammer III fairing and ‘Rack Factory’ tempered aluminum/teak inlay luggage rack/back-rest. I had also installed a CB/intercom system I designed and my Bell “Star” full face was hardwired with mic and Koss headphones. PTT trigger switch was mounted on left handlebar cluster just above the clutch lever.
Have shots of me and a good friend at the Pike’s Peak Summit ’78 after I’d gotten out of the USAF.
One of the guys I worked with had one with every light possible and some that shouldn’t have been, no idea how it was street legal, he took it to all the bike shows, including Sturgis, and often won or at least ended up in the top tier.
Iran’s most senior clerics have called for the assassinations of President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, declaring the leaders mahdour al-dam — or deserving of death.
The 88-member Assembly of Experts issued a 10-point statement in which they said killing “the wicked prime minister of the Zionist regime” and “the criminal American president” was a religious duty that must be carried out “under any circumstances.”
The clerics — who are constitutionally tasked with choosing and supervising the supreme leader — wrote that the call for their assassinations that avenging the death of supreme leader Ali Khamenei was of “paramount” importance.
I read this. The nukes should be back on the table because of these talking islam points. We should use them to eliminate, eradicate ALL islams from the face of the Universe. It is the only way to be sure.

30 years of fencing saber here…
Sabre/epee were my preferred styles…..25yrs.
Try fighting with both. Epee w/left-hand, 3-piece Guardier grip as primary, sabre as secondary/defense-parry.
The fun is remembering ‘right-of-way’ for which weapon…….good times!! 😀
My broadsword always has the right of way 😉
My ‘rotary dirk’ makes it’s own…
Your computer is wall-mounted????? :-p

On the brighter side, the US Supreme Court has ruled that anyone born in an Olive Garden is automatically an Italian citizen 😉

*Snrk*…..I like how you think!! 😀 Reloading has SOOOOOO many tangential applications….:-D 😀 😀
And being a confirmed ‘Wing-nut’ m’self, I gotta ask……how bad was the bike hurt?
And if you don’t mind, what happened? Not trying to be nosy, but many years of riding and 25+ years of emergency medicine compels me to ask!!

No one seems willing to sign letters of marque and reprisal.
Come on, Donnie, that’s what your autopen is for!

Bounties should be anounced as part of the festivities on the 4th.
