Once upon a time, conservatives were not so sensitive and PC as the left. Those days are gone. For every one of us that read it, LOL’s and had the presence of mind to take it in context, another had to get ‘offended’.

So let’s all just start being libs since it seems we are headed that way adopting their behavior anyway.

No more gun at the bottom of a lake jokes, no more jokes/pix of people with ANY color and cat pix will offend PETS.

Now go get ready for the 2 min hate since we’ve always been at war with EastAsia.

I literally beg to differ.

I was out on the lake yesterday on my boat with my dog, cat and all my guns....

Then the boat tipped.....

My guns disappeared to the murky bottom....

The dog drowned the cat trying to stay afloat...

So the dog and I used the now dead cat as a floatation device to kick our way to shore....

Desperate to stay warm, we lured a moose close to us with a piece of cheese I found in my pocket...

Killed the moose and used it carcass to warm the dog and myself....

Fortunately, my sister (who had been showering since last Tuesday) stopped by in her car and picked us up ....

Alas for my guns and Fluffy....sniff

I know, and mine were a real tragedy - they got eaten before they hit the bottom:

I'm going to tell any ATF stormtroopers who come looking exactly where they can stick their heads if they want to find the guns I used to own. I sure hope any ATF staff who are loyal to the communist will search diligently.

A couple of days ago, a fellow got on my elevator as the doors were closing. He said "thanks for saving my bacon" to the fellow who held it open for him. My immediate thought was "I know that guy's not Muslim", but waited to utter that remark to a friend in confidence.

He laughed and replied, "must not be Jewish, either."

God took care of my desire to drink alcohol. I was diagnosed with Type II diabetes two months ago. I see it as a blessing, as I've taken the bull by the horns.

My eating regimen has changed drastically (it's not a diet), following 90% of the guidance from "Eat to Live" by Dr. Joel Fuhrman. Haven't had a soft drink in two months, beverages limited to water and tea.

More consistent on exercising, too, 3-4 days a week, 6-8 mile weekend walks on the Campion Trail in Irving, fitness center after work 2-3 days a week (depending on my son's Cub Scout/sports/religious ed schedule).

Results so far are promising: last two weeks blood glucose readings ranged between 86-100, weight now at 190 (from 220).

My NY's resolution is simple: stay focused and determined on following the regimen. Also, get to target weight of 175, my weight at graduation from Jump School 36 years ago.

Apologies for hijacking the thread.

Interesting thought. I wonder if there is an age factor at play here? I tend to find fewer people younger than me that are immune. Probably the schooling changes.

BTW, my laughing woke up the wife.
