R.U.S., or I need a bigger airgun!
« on: August 26, 2011, 11:41:52 AM »
Its a shame Badger  left, he would have found himself a job with that new quiet air rifle of his. I'm sure the tenants would have hired him. I'm thinking about sending a letter and taking the job if they fly me to New York and put me up in a hotel far away from the projects. However, I don't think my trusty RWS 34 is up to the job. YIKES! That's a big rat! :o

Never like rats. I would have been squealing like a girl when that thing ran out.

I have killed them with a pitchfork but prefer a .22 short.

No. 4 buck and an open choke should do the job. Are you sure that's not a dog?  :P
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington. Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Friday, May 02, 1783

Doesn't Haz kill boars bigger than that with a kinfe?
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster
