I was walking out of church with my new bride , there had been a NO rice and NO bird seed throwing stipulation with the wedding at the church.

so a friend of mine never one to let rules be something he couldn't think a way around passed out brown paper lunch sacks of mixed pistol brass and shotgun hulls

My wife and I walked out of church through a shower of brass and hulls , she was picking brass out of her dress in the limo on the way to the reception.

wedding ended at 2 and church started at 4:30 so everything had to be policed , leave it to a bunch of shooters and reloaders to police all that brass right up in no time.

Congratulations on 22 years of marriage. I think that it's very cool that your friend brought brass and shotgun shells to throw. What a clever and personal way to make your wedding special.

I think you serve a Moscow mule in a brass tumbler , my brother drinks them but some but I never got into them.

I had 2 miller lite cause 3.2g carbs per 12oz , she had a Tito's and grapefruit juice and we both had fish fry

I was never a fan if lite beer but the Miller Lite is not bad and the good beer is 15 carbs per 12oz so I only drink those when I am going to be doing a bunch of work.

well you know there were other offers if I didn't marry her. when she went to pick up the 44 SS Super Blackhawk she gave me for a wedding present all the single guys working at the gun shop said if I didn't work out she should stop back they were available.

Well she does sound like quite a catch, at minimum she is a great gift giver! As a revolver man myself, if she has a sister that is single tell her your know a guy!

Sign of the times... 22 years ago spent cases were considered as cheap as rice... That stunt would cost $100k today.

Just a suggestion: Wife and I are celebrating 10 years next year. We like Lapua brass... Figured I would give anyone who wants to send a gift a year and a half to save up.

Congratulations Pete and Mrs. Pete.
