OK Alaska ~ Secede now....
March 31st 2008 14:16
Alaska, break free now....please!!!
The bulky document, printed on recycled toilet paper and which was to be released Monday by Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, proposes giving broad new powers to the Federal Reserve to combat the type of severe credit crisis currently gripping financial markets.
It would designate the Fed as a "market stability regulator" and give it the power to examine the rectum of small businessmen, books of any financial institution, not just banks, that might pose a threat to the stability of the financial system. It's easier than really fixing the problem.
If people believe that the IRS is abusive, wait until these folks combine with them to extort change with the full support of our police and legal system backing their play. We’ve finally created our own version of the KGB.
OK, it’s time for Alaska to distance ourselves from this pending catastrophe and secede from the Union while we still can; we never like them whacked out designer clothe wearing crank yankers anyway.

We're a country of convicts - we're not even allowed to have guns - just in case we decide to take back the freedom!
And technically, we are ruled by the Queen.....Still!

No guns? Really? How uncivilized; speaking of which, enforcing that has got to be an major pain, I've seen the movies.
I've got to do some research . . . no guns?? They've got snakes, killer croc's ~ spiders and toads; there's gotta be a loop hole....mumble

But yeah, the MONARCHY....We had a vote some years ago and the majority voted to stay with her....Why? Mystery.
Yep, enforcing it is a major problem...For the coppers at least, but thats not my problem, thankfully.
Theres a tiny, needles eye loophole....IF You own a property over so many acres, can prove you have no scrap of mental illness, no agressive behaviour, no assualt records etc, ETC, PLUS being able to prove you have a locked cabinet that is securely bolted to the floor and a separate locker also bolted to the floor for ammo, make a solemn promise never to leave said gun in your truck when you come to town, you can put in an application, and weeks later, you MAY be allowed a rifle.
Or you can head into the outback where an old timer might be able to sort you out with a shotgun, or walk the dark alleys in the city in search of shifty men who can sort you out with a pistol.
They are trying to ban us from having decorative knives and swords too. Recently a drug dealer got busted and they seemed more concerned about his samuri sword than the many kilos of heroin. When they first announced they were banning knives I was like - "so what do we cut our meat with then?" Its a shocker if you're into weapons as Kman and I are - I like to buy him a weapon a year, even if it just hangs on the wall and looks impressive.
It all becomes a moot point I think, when you keep an axe by the front door.....You never know when you might need some wood after all.

Kman just reminded me to make this distinction - we are only allowed single shot weapons - They are trying to clear the entire country of autos completely.
Much to Kmans shame I outshoot him with the dart gun. Since he's actually handled real ones he gets mightily upset - but makes himself feel better by saying I could never hold a real one or handle the recoil with my girl hands. It remains to be seen, oh, Id love to come over your place for an evening of distance shooting and knife throwin....
Inanimate targets of course. Wouldnt want our respective psychiatrists getting their balls in an uproar.

I don't like the idea of throwing a knife at a foe, why arm them if you miss? Use a small cross bow. Throwing your weapon away, even aimed at an enemy, isn't good.
However, tossing knives and axes is amusing when you're hanging out doing nothing in particular. I've thrown razor blades, utility knife blades, 16d nails and taken ducks by throwing a sharpened coffee can lids.
And of course throwing stars and other odd stuff.
It's a juvenile pass time, but entertaining ~ but eh, what do you do when the fishing is slow?
Kman is right, the heavier caliber hunting rifles are going to be hard on your learning curve to use them, but doable. Anyway, you two have a great day and savor each others company. It doesn't get any better.

Desert Eagle.
Since using the Desert Eagle in Tomb Raider 3 I was fascinated by it. Though its only a game they try hard to show the fire power of each weapon. Generally when Lara uses a pistol she gets one for each hand, but when drawing the Desert Eagle she holds with her right and supports her wrist with the left. The stopping power was like...WHOA!
Ever since that magic moment Ive wanted a real one for my very own. I think its a very beautiful weapon.
And yeah,
Im on board there.

The DE is easy to disassemble and to maintain, shooting it isn't a struggle or hard on the body.
