Used to LOVE Killian's! If we ever have the chance to meet up, I'll bring you a case!cheers handshake

RE: History

Me too, Tracy! I've always thought that they could cut it into chunks and make 4 or 5 GOOD states out of it!laugh

Oh, and Hillary as head of national security/secretary of state? The same woman who "landed under sniper fire?" rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing Oh my!rolling on the floor laughing

RE: History

Yep, and I want to make damn sure I keep it all the way it is right now! And that is precisely WHY I vote. Although I understand that you are deliberately over-simplifying things in order to make light of me.

It's ok, Phil. I know alot more about you than you do about me - And before you ask, I'll explain: Just because I enjoy a simple lifestyle does not mean that I am simple man.wink

RE: History

My apologies Starlin - Better run for the hills because I agree, yet again, with your initial post. That's why I posted the two emoticons in my initial post, not because of my personal feelings towards Mr. Obama.

Shucks! never knew I was a "hater." moping

Oh well, there's always next weekend!grin

RE: History

Actually, I DO vote. But not for something that I believe will ultimately be detrimental to the lifestyle/freedoms I've come to cherish.

RE: Best beer I found, and you?

I drink Corona at home, mostly, but the best beer I've ever had in my life came from Illinois - don't know where, but I bought it in Farmer City - and was a micro-brewery beer called "Bad Frog."

Recently, I've developed a penchant for "Delerium Tremens" a Belgian ale that runs about 8-9 bucks for a 750ml bottle. It's pricey, but DAMN, it's GOOD! drinking

cheers

RE: History

If this post is directed at me - I've never worn " the grey confederate." I'm from Kansas (hence the name "The Kansan") and we were on BOTH sides during the U.S. Civil war, hence the nickname "Bloody Kansas."

I do indeed hunt and if Mr. Obama has his way I'm sure that will come to a rather screeching halt, despite the lies he told several sportman's magazines during his presidential race.

My life IS good, but I rather think it's a case of making lemonade out of life's lemons and the love of a good woman and the freedom to make the choices I deem necessary to continue my current lifestyle.

Speaking of which, I have no need to defend myself/my lifestyle from anything/anyone. If someone else doesn't care for the way I live they are more than welcome to look the other way or jump in front of a train - Whichever would best suit them. If, on the other hand, someone tries to infringe upon my rights to live the lifestyle I choose, then I'm afraid it's going to be "Katie, bar the door!" and devil take the hindmost!

Did that help explain my position?

RE: Randomly Post The First Thing That Pops Into Your Head Thread

I'm glad I went wild hog hunting this morning. It's always wonderful being out in the woods and getting a good workout and plenty of fresh air - even when it's raining (like today!)

...But if I could do this morning over again... I think I'd oversleep... Like my hunting partner did... Except instead of calling him to tell him I'm running late I'd let him go ahead and get soaked without me and then make up a lie about a flat tire and a dead cell phone...sigh


Oh well, there's always NEXT weekend!yay


laugh

RE: Randomly Post The First Thing That Pops Into Your Head Thread

Hogs, hogs, everywhere wild hogs! Sign all over the g*ddamn place and 4 hours and 4 miles of hunting/hiking straight up and down through buckbrush, saw briars and rhododenron thickets and the only animal moving besides birds was a feral housecat!sigh

Oh well, there's always next weekend!!! yay

RE: What is the most obvious spot in a car to hide something?

My lovely Jackson lost her car keys this past Wednesday. Had to fire up my ol' Ramcharger to pick me up at the truck. When we got home, thinking maybe she'd dropped them in the trunk when she was looking for something earlier, she said, "Honey, pop the trunk of the car open." I looked at the key slot and said "Why don't you just use your keys?" (They were still hanging there!) laugh blushing rolling on the floor laughing

RE: How many of you would date, or have dated, someone far away?

I dated a gal I met here on CS who lived in East Tennessee while I was living in Northwest Kansas. Liked her so much that I packed up and moved to East Tennessee and married her! Never dreamed that it was possible to be this happy and contented!

Hope everyone can someday find someone to give them the peace, contentment and fulfillment that I've found with this wonderful lady!

Long distance relationships can work, but only if they don't remain long distance...

RE: whats your favorite fact?

If all the useless facts of the world were gathered together and published in a book, it would make a great step-stool or door-stop but wouldn't be much good for anything else.professor

RE: I miss my friend...

The best friend I ever had
Has run off with my wife
And left me here alone to face
The changes in my life.

The best friend a man could have
Has stole my wife somehow...
(I never liked him much, before,
But, lord, I love him now!!!)

RE: Cultural differences

FYI - It would seem that the powers that be equate our States with your countries as there IS not a specific "American forum" but only individual "State" forums, most of which are pretty dull.yawn

RE: Stranded on an island or in the jungle

Oh, and while company would be nice, it would depend upon the type of terrain and/or climate as to whether I would definitely agree to take someone else along.

One who stands alone - in this particular situation - is strongest. And no matter how capable the other person is, part of your time will be spent looking out for them and part of theirs in looking out for you. During the time you are looking out for each other, you're NOT going to be looking out for yourself and I see that as potential weakness.

If, on the other hand, we're talking about some idyllic desert island where the climate is moderate and food abounds, then by all means I'd take another person in half a heartbeat...

RE: Stranded on an island or in the jungle

Didn't mean to imply specifically that the things I listed didn't exist 125 years ago. It was just a partial list of things that most take for granted and don't think about until they have to do without them, plus some items that most would consider essential to a "survival outing." thumbs up

RE: Cultural differences

Wholeheartedly! thumbs up

I travel further in a week than most folks travel in a month and more in a month than most do in a year... And I'm damn glad that I don't have to show a passport or learn a new language every time I cross what would amount to one of our state or county lines.laugh

RE: Should we get the troops home?

If you happen to walk past a library, pop in and grab a dictionary.doh

RE: Should we get the troops home?

Good lord, man! Do you not understand what the words facetious and sarcastic mean?!!

Your lack of understanding is exceeded only by your lack of desire to understand. Get over yourself. laugh

doh

RE: Should we get the troops home?

I have no need to follow you. You evidently failed to follow me.

That's okay, though. I'm going to exercise one of the freedoms guaranteed by our constitution and defended by our armed forces and go hunting. You are more than free to continue attacking my <perceived> ignorance while I'm gone.

P.S. I'll be walking. (That's another way to get places.)laugh

RE: Have you been banned from CS?

"Have you been banned from CS?"

No, but something tells me that if I don't get off here and go hunting soon, I will be. laugh

RE: Should we get the troops home?

God help YOU if you really can't see that I was being facetious and sarcastic.

RE: Should we get the troops home?

Yet more people were killed in auto accidents yesterday... Should we ban cars?
