So, My Sister-In-Law Says....

....do you think you are going to have to shoot someone, while you're cleaning the garage? I was wearing my 38 like I always do around the house. She's been here for four days with her son.

I felt like saying....WHY DON'T YOU POUND SALT IN YOUR FAT ASS AND THEN HAVE ANOTHER 3 DOUGHNUTS AND A DIET COKE.

But I just smiled and went back out in the garage. She will be gone in the morning. I love having family over!

Mild Rant Over!

[Mtn.man]

Family, good fer ya. Makes ya appreciate the times you have Apart.

Maybe...

[Ah Pook]

Sounds like you will have a very clean garage by the time they leave.

I woulda responded "Ask me again and find out" and went back into the garage to continue.

I have to go to my aunt's house later my cousin from Berkley (yeah... 'nuff said) and her family are in town so we're having a big family BBQ (normally I'm "busy" for these things but I can't say no to a BBQ). I plan on OCing, and having a full gun rack when I pull up in the truck.... should be a fun night

Speaking of BBQ, what's the bbq sauce you were talking about with Habaneros and Jim Beam?

My brother was at home minding his own business when he heard screaming for help from the neighbors house. He was to investigate and the guy next to him was beating his ol lady silly because she was laying on the living room floor out cold. He told him to mind his own business too. And my brother just asked to check on the welfare of his wife well the guy jumped bad at him. 3 swings later the guy found out what it was like to fight a real opponent and was laid out much like his wife was.
My brothers wife went next door and checked on the woman and found that she was out cold too. She revived her and they called the cops on the husband who was still where my brother left him (face down in the dirt whimpering) the cops came and took the husband away and for some fucking reason was convinced by the husband or was driving by PCness to write everything that uses violence except the government a ticket.
The cops came at 3am and were very polite and respecetful as was my brother. But they did their job and handed him a summons to court for assault.
A few weeks later my brother went to court fully ready to admit all crimes commited and take whatever sentence was laid out. I advised him to use the affirmetive defense and remind the court that it was in the defense of others and self defense too.

He may have tried it too. But as soon as the judge that was taking his plea called him up took one look at his case and throw the whole case out without my brother needing to say one thing in his defense. The judge apologized for bringing him down there for something so wrong when he was so right and let him go then and there.

The moral of the story is: if you have to do what's right down get distracted by what someone looking to punish everyone my do. Do it and live.
Although, next time if he had a .38 special he might be able to tell his side of the story and not have to be taken by surprise by the victim telling one hell of a whopper about you later.

Jack Daniels damnit! Jim has its purpose, and that is to sit on the shelf
I'm actually about to go start another batch for the big BBQ on Tuesday for the Army's birthday. Don't wanna hand out my secret recipe, but its a ketchup base with 1.5-2 cups of JD, 2-3 habaneros, roasted and minced garlic, brown sugar sautéed and finely chopped onions, plus some other good stuff, and then smoked for a while. Make about a gallon or so per batch unless the occasion calls for more.

I would have handed her a ski mask, told her to go put it on, and then come back in because you needed to test something....
