    Faster than a speeding bullet, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound! Yeah baby! New site!
  3. I'm related to Noah Some fellow in our family wrote a really interesting book on an ancestor of ours, "Jacob Hutchins of Athol (MA)". This 17 year old's dad was in the French and Indian War. Jacob went off to war with the Massachusetts Militia. He was at Bunker Hill and Saratoga. He got typhoid or some such thing, went home, and never went back to war. He thought the Virginians haughty types, and discussed some war stuff. It's pretty interesting. Well, Jacob did a funny thing, and I wish he had discussed this conversation. He went up to the Canadian border. There is an island there on the river that is the boundary with the U.S. I think it was the St. Lawrence (shows I lack good geography of that area). The island's land was given to former soldiers of the Crown for their service during the Revolution. What's Jacob go and do? He marries a British Sergeant Major's daughter! Not only that, they both fought on opposite sides at Saratoga. What a conversation that must have been! "You want to marry a rebel?!" I think around 1820 Jacob got a land grant from the U.S. government for his service in the war in Ohio. He farmed and died there.
  4. Yup, slow. I need help from folks to determine a reliable hosting service that can post this bulletin board. I have been looking at ratings, but time isn't something I have lots of.
  5. Look at the Army, Navy, or Marines to get that experience you want. Be picky, and don't sign anything that isn't a guaranteed job.

    MLK B'day

    I agree. If I read that site right his "doctor" got pulled, and his "reverend" should have been as well, since he liked women other than his wife. It's fairly easy to make good speaches, but harder to live right.
  7. So it didn't get repealed?
  8. The wife said thank you fellas.
  9. Like most big organizations, they don't much care what the average person has to say. I was happy with Jr. NRA when I was young, and they did send silhouette information to me, but the letters and phone calls, as well as unresponsiveness to a legitimate issue is disillusioning.

    MLK B'day

    Leaders have a high standard. Can't be called "Reverend", and a "civil rights leader" and live a life of sin, and steal other people's materials. I do like what you said about special priviledges not being equality.

    MLK B'day

    Yup, that's the guy!
  15. Cookie targets Good idea, but sounds wierd. Anyway, I thought of this- Great pistol, rifle, pellet, or .22 target (especially). Push the cookies' cream filling into the brad nails. The kids will like this.
  16. You can write me if you want it or the stock patterns.

    MLK B'day

    I forget his name, but the minister in Dallas who is on the radio is really good. I was glad to hear Bill Cosby say it like it is a year ago.
  18. You shot camels for dog food? Where? 90 miles with broken ribs had to be the trip from hell. Coyotes- all my brother's cats and chickens, as well as guinea hens are dead. My nephew also shot 4 wild dogs in a row.
  19. Remember how I said that Google will not allow any advertisers (like me) to have advertising space with them? I told the NRA some time ago about it. The canned response was that they'd have someone get back with me. Well, sort of- they called and wanted me to listen to a lecture and participate in a poll. I told them NO. They didn't want to respond to me, and I won't participate in a poll.

    MLK B'day

    I'm not sure, but to celebrate MLK birthday, am I supposed to do like the guy yesterday and hold my privates while I walk around Walmart? No, don't think M.L. King Jr. would have made such a display. BTW, the beloved Robert E. Lee's birthday is Jan. 19. Robert E. Lee collection of letters Edit- I remembered long ago that Paul Harvey said that MLK committed adultery? So I looked it up. Will the real MLK please stand up
