That sign saying "WINDMILLS NOT WEAPONS" was met from our side by shouts of "We got windmills: Cobras, Apaches, Hueys,"etc. That is one of the all time stupid signs the peace-niks have, and they were still using that sign last week! LOL!!

Polish, did you say Polish? I would have thought Hamtramack way back when. My Mother's maiden name was Czwerwinski.
Speaking of Polish, tomorrow afternoon I will be boiling cabbage and stuffing them leaves with meat and rice and other things nice. I usually make enough for three meals. Time for steamed windows and family fun.

Gosh...we have Polish parties to make the polish version of "stuffed cabbage leaves"...I know I will get the spelling wrong...it's gauwomki (sp. that's the phonetic version) in polish! Our family is Marecki, Dworakowski, Baginski...etc
So how do you top yours? Tomato sauce, crushed tomatos or campbells tomato soup....I hope you have tons and tons of fresh fluffy mashed potatoes!!!
Hey...I'm starting to hunger for the stuff...may go out and buy me a head of cabbage tomorrow LOL!

But now I must sleep.

Hi Doug,
Thanks for stopping by. It is always a pleasure Freeping with you. I wrote a piece called It's All My Fault. In it I took the blame for the sad state of the nation, however I am not taking the blame for the way you treat those whiney leftists.
Sorry to say I will not be in the Fort tomorrow as I have a boat load of neglected honey doos and I volunteered to to some cooking. I am going to manage to slip down the street to stand against the left side of Loveland.

at least on Saturdays when you FReep together We have shared a hole in the ground.
Men are the funniest creatures God thought up. We dig holes in the ground, spend enormous amont of money buying plastic geese and then we get up on the coldest days of the year way before the sun gets up and put the plastic geese all over the place. Then we crawl into the hole and cover up and wait for geese to fly by.
If you have never witnessed a couple of guys blowing into goose calls when they see a flock of geese two and half miles away trying desperately to convince the gagle that the phoney geese are real, you are truly missing a treat.
Yes, but it beats working.

Thank you for a quite an enjoyable day. It was nice typing all the folks here. I wish I could be on here 24/7, but there is work to do, mouths to feed and leftist to fight.
I would like to leave this list for you to enjoy.
USMC Rules For Gunfighting
(Navy rules much shorter at the end)
1. Bring a gun. Preferably, bring at least two guns. Bring all of your friends who have guns.
2. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive.
3. Only hits count. The only thing worse than a miss is a slow miss.
4. If your shooting stance is good, you're probably not moving fast enough nor using cover correctly.
5. Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral and diagonal movements are preferred.)
6. If you can choose what to bring to a gunfight, bring a long gun and a friend with a long gun.
7. In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived.
8. If you are not shooting, you should be communicating, reloading, and running.
9. Accuracy is relative: most combat shooting standards will be more dependent on "pucker factor" than the inherent accuracy of the gun.
10. Use a gun that works EVERY TIME.
11. Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.
12. Always cheat; always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose.
13. Have a plan.
14. Have a back-up plan, because the first one won't work.
15. Use cover or concealment as much as possible.
16. Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours.
17. Don't drop your guard.
18. Always tactical load and threat scan 360 degrees.
19. Watch their hands. Hands kill. (In God we trust. Everyone else, keep your hands where I can see them).
20. Decide to be aggressive ENOUGH, quickly ENOUGH.
21. The faster you finish the fight, the less shot up you will get.
22. Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
23. Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one.
24. Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun, the caliber of which does not start with a "4."
Navy Rules for Gunfighting
1. Go to Sea
2. Send the Marines
3. Drink Coffee
"Taliban Trap"
A large group of Taliban soldiers are moving down a road when they hear a voice call from behind a sand-dune. "One American Marine is better than
ten Taliban." The Taliban commander quickly sends 10 of his best soldiers over the dune where upon a gun-battle breaks out and continues for a few
minutes, then silence.
The voice then calls out "One American Marine is better than one hundred Taliban." Furious, the Taliban commander sends his next best 100 troops
over the dune and instantly a huge gunfight commences. After 10 minutes of battle, again silence.
The American voice calls out again, "One American Marine is better than one thousand Taliban." The enraged Taliban Commander musters one thousand
fighters and sends them across the dune. Cannon, rocket and machine gun fire ring out as a huge battle is fought. Then silence. Eventually one wounded Taliban fighter crawls
back over the dune and with his dying words tells his commander...
"Don't send any more men, it's a trap.
There are actually two of them
Good night and thanks again for all you do. And a special thanks to Jim Robinson for his vision to make all of this happen

Good night...Look forward to reading your report and seeing the photos from your FReep tomorrow...Thanks again for stopping by and please
To: fivetoes
Thank you for spending time with us today. You are a great FReeper and family man and we loved featuring you.
To: fivetoes
Congratulations, fivetoes!! If anyone deserves a special tribute for activism and tenacity against the Useful Idiots around here, it most certainly is you!
A shame you're taking tomorrow off. I'll help trteamer Hold The Fort. (Of course, you no doubt need an entire week off in order to wait for your head to get back to normal size so that your jester cap fits once again! Heh heh!)
See you in FreepLand, buddy!
To: WVNan
Why, thank you, friend, thank you =^) Glad you liked it!
