“An Armed Society Is a Polite Society” 2

A polite society is a clean society.

A man accidentally shot himself in the foot on Sunday afternoon in Murfreesboro. A woman who was in the home at the time of the accidental shooting told police that she was in the kitchen when the 37 year old victim shot himself while cleaning his Mossberg shotgun.

I had a Mossberg five-shot bolt-action .22 rifle when I was younger. I once used it to pick a crow out of a tree at 150 yards.

I grew up on a farm. Crows were the enemy. Live with it.

Somehow, I managed not to shoot myself with it, because I’m not too stupid to own a gun.

    Moochers of eggs and chicks, I would imagine.

    Moochers of anything they can mooch.

    I am convinced that crows are the avian bankers.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
