A double full house, Delta Whiskies and Whiskettes, with two each mustering for that final inspection, two inconvenienced and two more in the wind. But not for long, I think.

Burr slays Hamilton in a duel in Weehawken, New Jersey
Category: Feel Good Stories
Doesn’t every gentleman have a pair of proper pistols? The pictured set look quite nice.
As a matter of fact we do. And some of us became gentlemen without it taking an act of congress critters. My dueling irons are the percussion cap conversion .45 similar to the ones above. My other set of short barrel “boot guns” are above the mantle at brother’s place in Dakota with a double trigger Hawken to keep them Company.
Oh, and nothing like a double full house to get us “over the hump.”
The spot in Weehawken, NJ where Hamiliton got capped overlooks the Hudson river. I think if I remember, their is a school their now. We stopped there to check it out. Had to be around 40+ years ago while I was working.
45 year old woman with a 25 year old (dead) boyfriend.
Wonder what they were arguing over.
She probably turned off the Wi-Fi and hit his Xbox controller.
There is I think a twenty year difference in ages between girl & boyfriend. If he were 20 years older then he could have sung to her “I’m so young” by the Students, 1958. I’ll get out my K*E 10 inch slide rule and figure it out but I have to see if I have enough talcum powder to keep it running on a long calculation like this one. Those 3 perps in Graves County were lucky that they didn’t end up in Graves themselves. Hmm, not bad.
