Fred;

So true so true, the WCTU finally got one right. Who wants to work anyway, especially during hunting season, then comes the same attitude for the fishing season and on and on.

Stomp out the WCTU

In the early days of live television, the WCTU decided to televise a demonstration of the evils of Demon Rum. To prove the concept, they got a champion pistol shooter, had him shoot at a target (all 10's) then had him drink a tumbler of Old Stump Blower, and come back 45 minutes later. Of course, his score was dramatically worse. Confident, the WTCU booked him on live television. He walked onto the stage, scared S***less, and proceeded to spray shots all over the target, then drank the class of booze. You know what's coming - he came back at the end of the show and put all shots in the black!

Much like the Gene Wilder/Waco Kid scene from Blazing Saddles. "You're as steady as a rock." "Yeah, but I shoot with this (other ) hand." Merry Christmas.

This discussion reminds me of when I was quite young and an avid hunter, when not working. I received a large post card from colleagues with the image of two cavemen carrying clubs and a caption that read

"All we ever do is hunt, hunt, hunt - why can't we have any fun"

I guess its all a matter of perspective.

I'm still an avid hunter, while work has passed into the misty corners of my mind.

Cheers,
Jack

I'll second this one Destry...! I don't know how anyone has time to work.... Who splits all their wood, fills the woodstove, shovels the snow, hauls water, and executes the sh*tcicle?! Speaking of which.... I had to test fire a K22 S&W I rebuilt for someone a few days ago so the "cicle" died a premature death this winter, but, fear not, there's plenty of winter left...
