Slim Pickins indeed. Only two stories. Maybe that’s a good thing.
“Emery Brice Heard-Ellis”
That’s a lot of daddys.
Yeah, but at least you can pronounce all of that clearly, right?
Crumb-Guy the other day rolls off the tongue.
Slim Pickens. Ah…who didn’t love his work. Clowning around at the rodeo. Bombed as a doctor, was into Strange Love, and Blazed thru Saddles as a cowboy. What? Oh, you meant there wasn’t much to chose from?
Never mind.
What is it that you smoke while you are Lording over us Dickweeds ????
I have no clue what you said there…..
So if anyone can explain it to an ignorant old planter It would be appreciated…..
No smoking until I’m officially off the payroll, ‘Stixx. See if I can ‘splain it to you Lucy. Slim Pickens was an infamous character actor that started his career as a rodeo clown. He rode the A Bomb down in the Dr. Strangelove Movie and had a starring role in the Blazing Saddles Movie. The other spelling that AW1Ed used, Slim pickin[g]s, refers to limited choices, you know kinda like what Navy is up against the FIRST Saturday in December.
And the lefterds are hollering for universal background checks, but don’t we already have that in place?
Interesting study by Johns Hopkins and UC Davis (hardly pro-gun bastions) concluding that California’s iniversal background checks, in place since 1991, have had NO effect on deaths or ‘gun violence’. That is almost three decades of data. Read about it on the Buckeye Firearms site (good site).
The leftards want every transaction intervened by the government, so it can be tracked and recorded. That way when they finally get their agenda, they have a good list of where all the guns are and can go about their “procurement for safe keeping” because as a “Nannystate” we can’t trust the general population with something as dangerous as guns!
Then they will segregate all of us in to our little areas so we don’t know how bad it is for everyone else, and then they will start restricting other rights like freedom of speech (already done) and freedom of the press. Finally they will just bully anyone that opposes them like every other Socialist Regime in the world and history has ever done to maintain their power.
AS long as THEY go to the “camps” first… and they will, because they really are that stupid.
So Emery Brice Heard Ellis. What did he hear him say.
