Good grief - we going to Charleston this Thursday. What comforting news. Maybe Austin & Charleston are too puny to rate this attention. Thanks for the heads up.

Have a wonderful, safe trip -- I've pretty much decided that I will drive back east this summer instead of flying. I just prefer to not subject myself and my camera stuff to airports. Also, I'll have my own van then, and won't have to rely on my son to drive me around -- YIKES! - I cannot handle being his passenger. I can't believe he'll be 20 years old next month.

Of course there'd be factions, just like here...you know the ones, Libertarians, regular conservatives, DU rejects and self-appointed whiner/detractors...of course, we could either assimilate those or vote them out.

I have already decided on my Freeoplesburg, a 45' Florida Bay Coaster with a pair of .50 cal Barrett Rifles for deck guns, and long range tanks.

By the time you get back home, you'll have a gazillion pics to manipulate. You guys have a super trip also.

I flew twice shortly after 9.11, but not since the feds have been "in control" with their new genius plans.

Arm the pilots, idiots, it's just that simple. And by the way, you might want to check out 19 - 40 year old middle eastern types, and leave my grandmother alone, and my six year old niece. Start the profiling. If I can figger out who did the killing, why can't you government puds?

For $8700.00 I can get you a 6 pound deck gun, licensed and in working order...

The recoil of anything over a 2 pounder would probably require major structural changes. Anyway if I was going to get into NFA Weapons again I would rather have a Mk 19 40mm machinegun that the SEALS are using in place of the M2-HB 50

That brings a tear to my eye...spent one year on a 50-foot aluminum-hulled boat, with two V-12 jimmys, twin .50s and a single .50 mounted on a naval-adapted, trigger-activated 81mm mortar. Was that ever a swell boat. We could lower the mortar horizontal and on a calm day we would shoot at whales...the rounds would skip about three times before detonating. The whales were pretty safe. Lots of long, boring days on patrol, interrupted with shear terror.

Swervie's right. We used to have problems with the base of our mortar and it was reinforced and designed for heavy use, although probably not for the "flat" shots. The problem was if we were in any kind of rough seas, elevating the mortar to a high angle was dangerous...one round would land about 5-miles inland, and the next had everyone running around hunting a hole as the round would land about 50-yards off our side. It took a steady hand.

Just saw a replay of the Sharon interview on Fox.

He said the Palestinians should 'trust me' and that he would 'pull out in time, cutie'

Oh Swervie, keep talking like that and I might fall in love with you.

Not hardly. Your remark suggests consent on the behalf of the Palestinian Terrorists.

We ALL know that saying that runs directly counter to the Swervie Anti-Semite Doctrine.

What you REALLY meant to say was that: "What Sharon said to the Palestinians was similar to the rapist saying, 'Don't worry, I don't have aids.'"

You have to remain true to your Doctrine around here, or I will call you on it.
