The monkey & the football

So from my perspective, the show is designed to A.) make gun owners look nuts, and B.) create an atmosphere of fear, mistrust, and angst.

Oh yeah, that was quite evident from the show.

... So go make friends with your neighbors, become a block captain, run for city council, whatever. Just  work to preserve the Union. that's the best survival plan there is.

I have a couple of neighbor friends and my girlfriend's family is in the 'hood. That said, I trust NO ONE in the neighborhood. When push comes to shove, in a bad situation, people will attempt to take what you have. Did you watch that survival show "experiment" called, "The Colony" on the Discovery Channel?? That made things pretty clear as to how things could unfold.

In my neighborhood, I have two families I would trust.  They are older than me, and both men served in Vietnam.  They liked me right away, because I moved in right before the 4th, and displayed my flag.     Aside from that, I wouldn't trust anyone else.  One of my neighbors has a goat.  I need to find that goat.  HA! 

[Aaron Burr]

Really Thor? You trust NO ONE? Have you considered moving? We kick ass. Yeah, I know it's not Texas, but after Armageddon we can call it Wester Texas.

This is a HUGE Navy town. Hell, the local radio station taunts Army for weeks leading up to the big game, it's hilarious.

Thanks for the link, but I don't watch T.V. The site looks like yet another silly lib fantasy about Mad Max et all. I prefer this place. Ol' School Survivin'

   we have some very Witty people in here,     Great!!!

Anti-gun you say, I wonder what I have in my 2 ton gun safe, GOLD, or Diamonds.?

Anti-gun, yeah, for those with $500.00 and no idea how to take the safety off one of them.

I can head out for the range and spend a Sunday blowing up everything in sight, big deal.  Then I can awake in the night to strange sounds and blow my ***** or dog , not to mention my own big toe away.

Give me a break, shooting a rabid dog, rattlesnake or bear is one thing, pulling the trigger on a human being is much different.

I was raised in hunting family's, they brought in game and did shooting for sport, except in war time guns were not needed for protection.

Grandma had her wonderful Sheleia stick beside the door, old sleeping farm dog before the stove, she had no fear.

Today I carry a stun gun that I forget about in my purse. Bought in the mid 1980's and still have no idea if it actually works.  No frogs were harmed in any trials.

Body language can do much to discourage others, I delivered Pizza to the Ghettos, skinny, white woman with $20.00 and a big pizza with the darn thing under the pizza.    Must have been the body language as every night I hoped someone would try to grab the food so I could try out my new toy.   No luck, soon as the midnight folks saw me they all disappeared off to some where.

A gun has all the leagel questions that come if you must use it, stun guns have few.

Rather try anything from a cast iron skillet to a BBQ fork before a gun---those are for the very last resort.   

OK I got the feeling you thought I was some kind of gun nut? Don't forget I live in NY and have a CCP. I had to go before 2 judges to get it! My gun has never left its holster and I hope it never has to. I like the feel of it there and when talking about the humpin monkey I just figure it will come in very handy. I hate monkeys by the way. Other than that I thought we were having fun.
 Its the cigar that really bothered me. I think it has something to do with Clinton?

Outside of my exclusively small circle of friends and family, no, I trust no one. That's now in my nature as I have been forced to learn that the hard way. Hell, I didn't even trust my ex-wife's family as I saw & experienced how they were. I could go into all that, but it's somewhat personal and definitely belongs in another board.

I know someone like you.  He is my boyfriend.  He keeps me balanced, from getting into trouble for not being so much like him.  It is probably a very good thing.

For crying out loud, what is wrong with monkeys in NY.?

Out side of that drunk, drugged chimp that ate that Lady's face last year, the little ones are now being trained as service animals. Problem is their tail has to be docked.  

Now that YOU mentioned it, have you or anyone else ever seen a photo of Clinton smoking a cigar after that bit of TMI came out.?  We never were told if his cigars were rolled by Cuban woman on their body's.   Takes allot of talent to do that, I tried it once and what a mess.  They had this stripper in San Francisco years ago that could roll a carton of them things in 3 minutes flat----but that's another story.

We Yankees in our wisdom buy those packs of cigarette sized cigars so we can go to a Cigar Club Bar as cigarettes in bars  are a thing of the past up here.  Also they cost about $1.50 a pack.

Humping Monkeys indeed, where would Eric Clapton be today had he given that name to his band.

Not a bad name for a biker gang, much better then the Tulips.----Memory's of Rob and Laura Pettrie.

As for on topic, I have read about wartime Germany when people would scour the streets looking for a cast off butt of a cigarette, tobacco is a powerful draw for even the wealthiest people.  Excellent trading tool, better then most drugs or medication.

Clinton and cigars, humping monkeys, wow I wonder what I will dream about tonight.?    

[Aaron Burr]

Ok.Ok. The term "monkey humpin' a football"  is courtesy of a former acquaintance and co worker. We were in another country and came walking out of a hotel to witness a mini riot/gang fight/jamboree taking place right in front of us. The general chaos and incompetent looting skills of the participants (one guy trying to make off with a big fat T.V.) prompted my friend to remark. "Look at that, just like a monkey tryin' to hump a football."

I've used the phrase ever since. The visual is quite amusing. It's a catch all for whenever stuff goes spectacularly wrong.

And monkeys are delicious...and fit right in the crock pot.

[vesta111]

Only if all those dudes quit workin' and start huddling in their basements. Or we could just go with the Umpa Lumpas as a source of nutrients.

O.K. I'm going to have to scan the photo from the paper. In the meantime I'll replace the derogatory term "fat" with "cross eyed" instead. The gentleman in question is wearing sun glasses so it's hard to tell...but it stands to reason.

Anyway, about that After Armageddon show...

It was produced by Randy Murry. Who's he? You tell me. Crazy Socialist Bastard.com

So from my perspective, the show is designed to A.) make gun owners look nuts, and B.) create an atmosphere of fear, mistrust, and angst.

Didn't someone once say "If you don't know the history of the author you don't know what you're reading.." or something like that?

Same goes for the idjit box. Especially the idjit box.

So go make friends with your neighbors, become a block captain, run for city council, whatever. Just  work to preserve the Union. that's the best survival plan there is.

Aaron I have you covered. As CFO I arranged to buy us a state Senator and 3 selectman in town.

Don't cost much, and the windfall is Amazing.---------I checked the pork and one Senator was bought for a miserly $3,000 and the package of photo's.

The County Sheriff is difficult, he is honest as the day is long so a little finesse may be called for. Yup, going to do this the American way, American ingenuity,  depending on how we have been taught from family's, Church or schools.

Thor says he trusts few, good idea, but he has a problem, he over trusts himself, worse mistake one can make is as Shakesphere said  is to not know thyself.

I believe this is a huge problem for Obama, he puts trust in others to help him run the country and has not come to grips with himself.  He sees only his virtues and ignores his own faults.

However, your ranch the what name do you give it------I think of it as the Circle AB is going strong, My 19 year old daughter had a date with the Mayor, out of town, do you want to put her on the employee list as a undercover associate.?

I...I think I love you.

Too sweet!

[Aaron Burr]

Safety. My CFO is apparently taking over my town. Did you read Vestas post? Wow. Either great minds think alike or she's been checking up on E.C..org. Either way it's comedy gold.

[IassaFTots]

Sometimes you have to read a little bit, but then that daggum zinger gets in, and whoa! The clarity.  I dig it.

[Aaron Burr]

I wonder if she likes motorcycles. I'm planning on picking up a few more for the bank. Nothin' like mechanized mayhem when you're trying to foreclose on some isolationists "compound".

I may get a sidecar rig, but Floyd thinks those are "semi-pro". Personally, I look forward to having a place to store all those extra frito pies.

That is proper use of a sidecar!!

Well, it is if you can't get a machinegunner to ride with you, anyway.

Whoa, hang on there! Just who is Floyd and how much does he contribute to your campaign?

I am Floyd. What campaign? And I LOVE Frito pies.

[Eupher]

I am Floyd. What campaign? And I LOVE Frito pies.

Ah, okay. Just funnin' about the campaign, though it could mean the Campaign to Document Monkeys Humping Footballs. (I'd contribute a small sum.)

Fritos are manna from heaven. Everybody knows that.

You actually wrote that with a straight face...?

Sorry Thor, the topic can cover so much ground and seep into other areas. It is difficult for me to have tunnel vision, you know I tend to think outside the box.

It's OK Tanker, everyone needs a good critic to set them straight, Thor is my impartial critic, he holds me on a short leash.   Valuable man, keeps things in perspective for me.
