So, Delta Whiskies and Weedettes, the totals for today are 0 / 3 / 0, three of a kind. Not great, but not bad, either. So zero morts, two receiving world class health care, doubtless at the expense of other, one incarcerated and making new friends, and zero again for any miscreants skulking off datum. But they’re out there, planning their next foray into crime.

“At that point two unidentified men intervened to confront the 48-year-old man”
I suspect that those unidentified men will soon be identified at which time they will be in a world of shit.
Better that they had all gone to bed early or at least before midnight on Sunday night.

“There is no rust or pitting as is common on many Navy pistols”
Gee, I wonder why that is…..

Don’t you just “Love” how one of the re-patent dates was Feb 14, 1911? Makes your “Heart” feelz all warm & fuzzy.
I “Liked” the Marine issued wheel .45 they were auctioning off too. Reelz good price on it, unlike the Army Owned/Navy issued 1911. Noticed that a re-patent date on the wheel gun was July 4, 1905.
Ok ‘Ed, we know it is a juggle, trying to drive the plane, keep an eye on me around the handles, and try to cypher the odds using a grease pencil and match book cover on a leg leg strap clip board. Houston we have a problem.
The betting window is not wanting to pay off on a 3 of a kind, since one of the hospitalized was actually a victim; a real victim v a perp/suspect that became wounded/injured. I speak of the 72 yo man who was hit upside the back of the head. I portend that 3 of a kind also means 3 dirtbags taken off the street.
I know you were in a hurry to get back to your floating air base for the mid watch rats, and to get freaky with the trench gun.
My mistake, the totals have been corrected to reflect two in the hospital and one in the slammer.
While Sister Mary Grace was wincing at a couple of sentences, it’s Tuesday and she put the No. 15 yellow pencil away for a few days.
Meantime, I am very glad to know that the gentleman in the first article was NOT the victim of someone (except for the knockdown) who can’t hit something at point blank range. I hope that he recovers completely from the incident. That perp needs his ass kicked good and hard.
I commend the 72 year old for stepping up to aid his neighbors but domestic disputes are extremely dangerous to people deemed interlopers by either or both side.
As I ease towards that age I have already raised the bar for me to get involved.
The instinct remains but the body does not follow.
This is probably the best place to post this bit of great news in my life today.
Sooooo….
I’m not going to brag…
Nope, not going to brag….
DAMMIT !!!
OK, talked me into it, I’m going to brag !!!
My youngest daughter Joanie got her notification today that she has been awarded a full ride scholarship for her Premed courses at the University of Wisconsin Madison and is already on the acceptance list for Med School at the UW too.
So, someone in the know just wrote my baby girl a check for $100,000 today.
She starts as Sophomore too not a Freshman because she took most of the courses in her advanced placement courses at Greenfield HS in Milwaukee !!!
God truly has blessed me with my three beautiful daughters.
I simply could NOT be more proud of all of them… (Even the commiefornia liberal)…
Congrats to the Baby Girl on a job well done so far. You have every right to be proud of her. Also a hat tip to you and the Baby Mama on proper upbringing, giving her the background and gene pool to excel.
Now when she finishes her training and becomes the consulting doc for the Packers, we’ll expect some tickets. At the very least a nice ring of that good hoop cheese.
