They don't care if you leave the toilet seat up either.


I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.

So you only have a framing hammer? Not a chipping hammer, finishing hammer, 8 pound maul, small sledge hammer, tack hammer or rubber mallet? All hammers but not interchangeable. You need at least 1 for every application, just like guns.


I have nothing clever to put here.

My dad never owned many guns. a 308 a 22 and a 16 gauge pump. Anything he wanted to kill one of those would get the job done. My grandad had a few. So did my uncle. Dirt, I have some old traps I doubt I ever use. I just like owning them. I just have stuff that for one reason or another interests me. I have an old h and r pistol made before WWII. Its a 9 shot 22 revolver and not very valuable on the open market. But I like it. You push up the rear sight and the gun folds open kinda like a breech loading single shot shotgun. The ejector pushes all the brass out when you do it. Old gun is still accurate. I just like it so I keep it. Have traps like that too. Old jump traps not considered collectable but I like them. I use one time to time cause I like the simplicity of them I guess.

Only one gun. Yes, you heard me right. Isn't that outrageous!

A man should have as many guns as he can take care of. I'm tempted to liken guns to women; except that the right to keep and bear women is not preserved in the Constitution.

I like bare women, some more than others.

I also have some old traps and some old guns I never use. I don't go buy new ones that I don't need though. I have more hammers than guns. I need more hammers.

I agree that you need several more than one, but remember the saying beware of the man with one gun, as he probably knows how to use it.

Good post, Danny! I like jumps too.

Guns are an appreciating asset; women a depreciating asset.

And besides you can sell a gun you do not like
And women you end up selling a few things if you do not like them whistle

If you look up "truth" in the dictionary, this will will be what you will find.
