REPENT!
« on: January 28, 2016, 05:25:56 PM »
Repent your misdeeds, all ye sinners, for we have entered the last days and the end of the world is nigh.

How do I know this? I was in a Staples "office superstore" this afternoon, checking out inexpensive all-in-one printers (did you know you can buy a wireless, all-in-one machine for $59? The pace of technology continues to amaze me), and then I stopped in a Wal-Mart next door to compare pricing. As always, I wandered past the ammo cabinet. I was almost past it when I did a double take: There on the top shelf was a pile of 100-round boxes of Winchester .22 LR ammunition. $8.47 each.

Not a great deal, but not bad -- and this is the first .22 ammo I've seen in any Wal-Mart for at least two years. I was going to take just two boxes, to leave some for the next guy, but there were a few more behind what could be seen from the aisle, so I decided to take my full allotment of three boxes. Then the Sporting Goods manager commented that he had two more cases sitting in the back.

Truly, we are in the end times.

Did you also check pricing on unicorns?
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

So you're saying its all circling the drain?  Had to end sometime.
I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do.
