The old Man and the State Trooper A senior citizen drove his brand new Corvette convertible out of the dealership. Taking off down the road, he floored it to 80 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little gray hair he had left. "Amazing," he thought as he flew down I-94, pushing the pedal even more. Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a state trooper behind him, lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120. Suddenly he thought, "What am I doing? I'm too old for this," and pulled over to await the trooper's arrival. Pulling in behind him, the trooper walked up to the Corvette, looked at his watch, and said, "Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes. Today is Friday. If you can give me a reason for speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go." The old gentleman paused. Then he said, "Years ago, my wife ran off with a State trooper. I thought you were bringing her back." "Have a good day, sir," replied the trooper.

Actually I love this argument. What we have is a sitting US Senator telling us that the current government is corrupt, and can not be trusted.

My grandmother also taught me “never stick your dick in crazy”.

Whores, the bunch of them!

Murphy:

Well what do you know? It appears we only need 2.2 round mags! Judge Benitez destroys the 2.2 rounds per DGU lie once and for all – Bearing Arms Should I slice that 9mm round longitudinally, or do a cross section?

Wouldn't that be typical of the NJ State government...

100%!

Okay you're opinion is recognized.

Welcome to the forum, have you picked anything up yet? And never mention crock pots or pineapple either.

This wont make any sense to you right now, but, I recommend just going with this. When the question comes up, the correct answer is always pork roll. You will understand soon enough. Welcome to the jungle.

Sad but true! Who would have thought?

If it's an app store app, a part of the problem may be that it's not dynamically served from the web and getting an new app version approved can take way longer than it should.

Fiscal and economic responsibility got sick somewhere around 1913 and was killed off in 1944 . Taxes are just a weapon at this point, you don't need tax dollar when you can print currency and export inflation.

Great job, Glen! I have some friends who swear by adding cocoa powder to their chili, but they use the Mexican version. It has NO sugar, and adds depth to the chili. I’ll try to find out the brand they use. I have not tried it in my chili, but the next batch I make I think I’m gonna try it.

Raining and dreary for two days. Whipped up some chili. Brown up all the meat and tossed it into the Dutch oven or pot. 3 pounds hot garlic venison 1 pound of steak strips Half pound bacon. Added to the meat: 2 cans Rotel (mild) 4 eight ounce cans Goya tomato sauce 2 cups water 2 beef bullion cubes (one for each cup of water) Mix together below and add it in to the pot and stir well: 3 tablespoons chili powder 1 tablespoon ground cumin 1 teaspon paprika 1 teaspon cocoa powder 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon Let it simmer for about three hours stirring occasionally. Towards the end I made a slurry with White Corn Mead and Guiness. 1/4 cup of the mead mixed with about half the beer. Mix it well and then stir it into the chili thoroughly. If needs more add another 1/4 cup mead and rest off beer and make slurry again. Work it into chili well again and continue to simmer for another 30 minutes to an hour or so until thickens up. This one turned out about medium hot. The venison meat had spices already so I probably could have dialed a few things back to make it milder. It's still darn good. Just have to pat my brow with a napkin occasionally. Lol.

A good article on the changing demographics of gun ownership, with plenty of interesting data points: The changing face of gun ownership (msn.com)

TRENTON, NJ – A ruling in federal court could impact New Jersey’s ban on high-capacity magazines. https://www.shorenewsnetwork.com/2023/09/23/high-capacity-magazine-bans-unconstitutional-federal-judge-rules/

Finally finished mine: JM Stamped Marlin 1894 in .44mag. Just waiting on the sling and it’s done.

What was Sheila Jackson Lee doing out of HER district? She's even scarier looking than usual with her sleep mask still on !!

Wow! I would think an 80 round magazine could be somewhat cumbersome!

I was attacked by a giant gorilla here in Austin. Luckily, I survived.

Yep. This perfect for the democrats. If Menedez resigns or is convicted Murphy gets to name someone to finish out his term, build name recognition as "Senator" and get their campaign going. Of course, Murphy could call for special election, but only republicans like Chris Christie would do something that stupid. Which is how we got Cory Booker in 2013 after Frank Louse-nberg croaked, (democrats had pulled a fast one allowing Louse-nberg to replace Torricelli on the ballot after Torricelli was caught on corruption charges). N.J. dems have a long history of corrupt Senators.

I know this seems like a good thing, but realize that if he loses his seat, Murphy gets to pick his replacement. If we had a R governor right now, this indictment would never have happened. Pay attention people, it's not always what it seems.

U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez in San Diego said California's "sweeping ban" went too far by preventing people from using magazines for lawful purposes, including self-defense. "The history and tradition of the Second Amendment clearly supports state laws against the use or misuse of firearms with unlawful intent, but not the disarmament of the law-abiding citizen," Benitez wrote in a 71-page decision.

Just picked these up. Seem well made and comfortable to wear. I will be trying these and the neomag, which I already had. Also, wondering if other folks have heard this. I learned (don't remember where) that if you are carrying a subcompact that should carry a full-size (and legal capacity for your AO) spare mag. Basically the reasoning is that for subcompact mags you need to flare out your palm a bit when inserting the mag and during fan/crap scenario you may well pinch the side of your hand trying to insert the spare mag. A longer mag does not have this problem. And in free states, it holds more food!

@High Exposure you know me well enough to know I'm a dinosaur in many respects. Still using the Bianchi dump pouch bought in 1974. It worked for me all these years. Why fix it if it aint broke?

3rd time's the charm?
