E4 No More

Open your eyes and rub them.

I believe Obama said that he would stand for Israel; not defend them. I do not recall him every saying anything about using the military to defend Israel.

Something smells and it ain't a skunk.

Carb or brake cleaner's fun too! I used to cook the fire ants in 29 Palms just for the irony of it.

It's the story of the 54 year old man waiting outside a market for his father to do his shopping, and some bastard comes along and firebombs him. Having been badly burned before I guess this just angers me more than most.

I actually have more respect for prostitutes: they're smart enough to get paid to get laid.

I know. I'm just pushing buttons. When you are on the attack you tend to go after the biggest weakness for the attack - I get it. But to my point when you are trying to persuade someone hypocrisy doesn't get it done. It is seen as pure distraction.

I suspect that there's a lot of hypocrisy on this subject. Personally, what a woman wants to do with her vagina and a consenting adult is between them and God - as long as they aren't a hypocrite about it. What bothers me about this woman is that she's being a hypocrite. If you want to screw every guy you see then be willing to pay the consequences for it.

That was in reference to her; not the guy.The fact is most guys would screw anything that moves if they were allowed to. Many praise the swordsmiths if not idolize them. But when a woman does it she's a slut or whore. I'm not claiming I to not do this too, but fair is fair. Man-whore and man-slut are relatively new terms and NOT used by males in the same context.

I think guys will hit a lot of things that they wouldn't brag about.

Yes, but do you get on a public venue and call them names similar to "Slut"? Be honest!

I think that you missed the part where I said, "Her political beliefs and statements aside...."Those same guys aren't exactly lining up to support the child they father, so the mother gets your tax dollars to support the child in the form of WIC, Food Stamps, and direct state support. How is that better than paying for rubbers? Then you have them also getting things like AIDS and Herpes. Since they tend to be the younger guys who don't feel the need to pay for health insurance, who do you think pays that bill?

Well, you ARE a slut!

Could you hear the rabbit screaming? On a summer's night I was pulling onto a highway when an owl came down on a rabbit, and I heard it screaming. Wow!

http://www.wsmv.com/video?clipId=7868343&autostart=true This story makes me angry, and if I witnessed such an act I don't think that I would restrain myself from gunning this guy down right then and there!!!

Her political beliefs and statements aside, if it was a guy bagging women every chance he got would you be calling him derogatory names in the like of "slut" or "skank"?

I wouldn't know, and hopfully will never know how they taste.

This! My favorite bird of prey. They are all over the place in Missouri. We used to live in an apartment building that was up against an old farm pond. There was a really loud bull-frog back there. I was sitting on the balcony watching a hawk circle above the pond. Next thing I know he folds his wings and dives for the pond. He came up with the loudmouth frog. Aww, peace and quiet.

There's an awful lot of scardy-cats in here!

In Kansas City it was Tom Pendergast up until around 1939.

Humm, may have to check that out then. I got rid of an M4 for the Sig 556 DMR because the Aimpoint was really only useful to about 150 before the dot was bigger than the target. That isn't the only reason. I bought the M4 from the Outpost Armory with the aimpoint. I discovered later that I had to drift the rear sight all the way to the left wall to hit on target, but as near as I could tell the front sight post and frame was perfectly straight. Of course, Outpost didn't care to do anything about it either! I was treated much better at Hero Gear.

Does it have to be a war story? In the spring of 1983 I was stationed in 29 Palms, CA as an 0811, Artilleryman. We were out in the field for a combined arms exercise with the Army. Since my battery was a 175mm self-propelled gun unit that looked similar to a Russian artillery piece, we were tasked with representing a Russian artillery unit for the exercise. For whatever reason, our 6 guns were split into 4 and 2, and I was on one of the 2 guns. Our main group of 4 guns was a couple of miles up the road from our position at the time that the second gun in my group broke down, so we had stopped to help fix it. The two guns were separated by about 150 yards or better, and I was walking over to help the other crew when I heard the roar of a jet engine. We had been told that it was possible that we would be gassed, and I heard a SSGT yell GAS! GAS! GAS! I stopped, turned to look back, and to my left front I saw an A-6 Intruder coming in front of me left to right with fire coming out of his right engine. As it got directly above and in front of me it turned on its side a blew up. I was in the open with no place to go, and felt the heat on my face. All I could do was stand there and hope that I lived. One of the drop tanks landed to my right by just a few yards, and the other landed to my front. Fortunately for me, the plane had come from El Toro, and the drop tanks were empty - otherwise I would be dead. The only piece of plane that came close to hitting me was a 5 or 6 inch section of computer motherboard material. The plane crashed to my right just a bit past the other gun.The LT that was with us yelled at us to get into the truck so that we could do...whatever... at the site of the crash. I never got into a truck as fast as I did that day. I hit the tongue of the water bull with my left foot while on the run and lept into the back of the truck. We were instructed to look for survivors, (yeah, right), and I could see that the cockpit was up the side of a mountin. That same mountain had one of the engine turbines hit near its base and powder granite as it slide/skipped up the mountainside. So I ran up to the cockpit to find nothing: the crew had ejected. What happened? The plane was coming off a bombing run when it sucked a foreign object into the right engine which caused it to come unglued. Gun number 6 up ahead had its tube standing as erect as possible for whatever reason when the plane flew over it missing by around 6 feet. That would put the plane roughly around 50 feet in the air when it passed. We believe that the pilot and bombardier saw us ahead and held off ejecting or else they would have come right down on my position. That delay caused them to eject into the side of a granite hill that was somewhat behind me when the plane turned on its side. The investigators said that the plane was going too fast for ejection anyways, and that the force of the wind at that speed would have killed them. An Army one-star was flying around with a Marine Major in a Huey, and they landed at the site. I was instructed to retrieve the crew's helmets in an attempt to identify them since they were not only wind-blasted so badly that their flightsuits were blown off of them, but they were both decapitated in one form or another from hitting the granite hillside. The only thing that survived the crash was the life raft that had inflated. Fortunately for me, both of their helmets were empty. To this day that crew are heros to me, for I believe that they sacrificed themselves to spare my life and the lives of my brother Marines that day. The investigators told me that they could have nosed-up the plane to eject backwards, (thus slowing their speed down to a survivable speed), before ejecting, but clearly held off in doing so for us. The sad thing is, the base ignored it like nothing ever happened.

LOL!I wanted the eye surgery because shooting the rifles with glasses sucked. Each recoil shifted the glasses and thus point of aim. I guess I could go to a high mount to help that out some.

Nope! The problem is my eye which is why the doctor cannot fix it. Basically, I have an astygmatism that Dr. Ming Wang, (the so-called best eye doctor in Nashville), cannot fix. I had an experimental intracorneal ring implant done on my right eye in the mid 90's to correct near-sightedness. I was moving to Nashville before the study was done, so they had to remove it. This leaves a groove in my cornea. They told me that my eye would go right back to normal, but they were wrong. Dr. Wang didn't think it would be a problem when he did LASIK on my eyes. He was wrong too. I am going to go back to my regular doctor soon to see if he can correct it with glasses, but for now I see two fuzzy crosshairs no matter what.

Thanks, Mike. This may sound whiney, but, I am what my eye doctor calls "sight sensitive", but it really boils down to the fact that I'm obcessive-compulsive. When I was the sniper for my PD I wore contacts that corrected my vision to almost 20/10, (I could identify half of the letters on the 20/10 line). I gauged my accuracy by being able to put a round in someone's pupil at 100 yards. Today I see two sets of blurry crosshairs when I sight through a scope, and that drives me absolutely batty! Today I'm doing good to put a .308 in someone's eye at 100 yards. It kills me to not be what I once was. It sucks getting old!
