While we are complaining....

I like the term "zombie threads" that somebody came up with on here. Wish I'd thought of it myself.

Threads that come back from the dead.

I may have been the first... How cool if others use the term. Starting a term on a chatroom may be the highlight of my otherwise pretty boring life!!

A revived zombie thread has bit me in the butt once... That one about when I shot .380's through my 9mm.... Man I was happy when that thread died.

But then it came back!

And a whole new generation of posters get to tell me I'm a knob!

Even on the happy threads, Tim?

I couldn't figure out what you were talking about, & then it hit me! I have got to learn to proofread my comments better before I really embarrass myself & yes, contrary to what some people might think, that is possible!

When U live in the past the old threads are really new. It's fun to dig up old dirt. I still have the hand crank to my Model A.

Lost Lake:

A 380 is just a sawed off 9mm right?

I like seeing some of them. Interesting then is still interesting now. The ones I really love though are the ones like "I'll take it" when responding to a want to sell ad offering a like new 2 1/2" 19-2 in the box for $450 shipped. Only problem is the ad is from 2009. Then when he receives no reply,he asks "Is this still available?" Duh!
f.t.

So I gave my mom a bear gun for mothers day after the dingos ate the baby and my wife speed walked home so fast that her sweat pants were about to catch fire from the friction.

I has seen the black helicopter doin' a snatch.

from my secret squirrel observation post:

Old Tex Mex, you look like the kind of man that Skeeter Skelton would have liked to have known. (You're not the one he used for his Dobe Grant character per chance are you?) I know that Dobe Grant was supposed to be Evan Quervo (sp), but you look more like I had imigined Dobe Grant to be. I think he was Skeeters best character!!!

I am not going to ask what that means. I don't want to get the thread locked.

What happens to me with them zombie threads is I'll be reading along with great interest, planning what I am gonna comment, and a page or two in I suddenly come across a comment I made way back when...

It's like Yogi Berra said: Déjà vu all over again.

It's o.k., just an old fashioned "extraction". These modern chopper reels can haul a man up nosebleed quick. This is the ultimate in "public transportation", 'cause sometimes there's just not time for a taxi.
But seriously folks, let's GET BACK ON TOPIC!!
