This is a poem from WW1 but it seemed appropriate.  It's short, just about a minute.

The Mess Hall / Re: When Sauerkraut Goes Bad

Yep, it's bad in the same way that cheese, pickles, and yogurt are bad...

Totally bad, totally rad and what's for dinner!

The only pickles I eat are called "sweet midgets" or "sweet gherkins".  And none of those products (with the exception of limberger cheese) have the foul stench of 'kraut.

Unknown.

I THINK the S&B 00 shells that I have claim 1200 fps. Don't know what barrel length, though.

All I do know is that they kick like mad out of my S&W 3000.

I would NOT want to fire them out of my Ithaca.

FYI - as previously mentioned, my SxS has double triggers.  I have fired both barrels with those 3" shells with the gun held 2 ways - 1 at the shoulder and 2 at my hip - actually braced against the hip where the leg meets the torso.
I also don't recommend the shoulder, even if you are prepared and leaning into the target.
With the stock against my hip, my body was better able to absorb the recoil and the gun was at a better level for hitting you attacker's groin.

My memory may be fuzzy here, but I think all you have to do to know what the A to H flag means is watch the HBO John Adams miniseries. I guess watching that makes you ultra-MAGA.

Especially considering you were watching that instead of episode 5 of the George Floyd story which is the one where he cures cancer right before being murdered by a white police officer under Trump's orders who wanted the cure for whites only

You have to be deep into MAGA to know what this flag means, much less where to buy it & fly it over your house.

I have to agree with her on having to be deep into MAGA culture to know the secret dark web sites where you can get this flag.

Well, I see that the "An Appeal to Heaven" flag is the new monster. I might need to switch from my Gadsden Flag for a while.  =)


Seeing terms like "MAGA battle flag" and "terrorist flag" being tossed about.

    Appeal to Heaven flag isn't a casual 'I Support Trump' thing like the red hat.

    This is Waco level, Timothy McVeigh extreme.

    You have to be deep into MAGA to know what this flag means, much less where to buy it & fly it over your house.

    The Supreme Court is a terrorist org.

Aren't you glad we got these lefty wackos telling us what things like "An Appeal to Heaven" flag "really means
BTW: You want to tell her Timothy McVeigh was actually left leading?
