scream-of-consciousness;
"If you're trying to change minds and influence people it's probably not a good idea to say that virtually all elected Democrats are liars, but what the hell."
Overheard on FOX News a few minutes ago: "I'm not a member of an organized party. I'm a Republican." Neither the interviewer or the interviewee noticed any humor in that but I about fell out of my chair laughing. GrinfilledCelt
That's an original Will Rogers' line from the '20s (except that he was a Democrat), so the interviewer might not have laughed if he/she had heard it before.
"Budget: A mythical beanbag. Congress votes mythical beans into it, and then tries to reach in and pull beans out." -Will Rogers
"There ought to be one day-- just one-- when there is open season on senators." -Will Rogers
"I belong to no organized party. I am a Democrat." -Will Rogers
"There is something about a Republican that you can only stand him just so long; and on the other hand, there is something about a Democrat that you can't stand him quite that long." - Will Rogers
The good old days. I used to cut out the front pocket of my slacks, then put my holster on a cut off garrison belt fastened to my right thigh. By casually putting my hand in my pocket, it was good to go. Took a little practice time to get smooth at it.
Could never get it to work in jeans, plus it showed some. So much for fashion.
Hammerless becomes problematic.

Will Rogers was a genius, in my opinion.

A quality holster needs care and lubrication for a smooth and consistent draw : ) smibsid
ReplyDeleteHa! That picture is from the same photo shoot as water girl. I forgot SondraK owns the rights. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Will Rogers quote is the forever timely, "Just thank God we're not getting as much government as we're paying for."

Casca,
ReplyDeleteIt's a semi-problematic.
The good old days. I used to cut out the front pocket of my slacks, then put my holster on a cut off garrison belt fastened to my right thigh. By casually putting my hand in my pocket, it was good to go. Took a little practice time to get smooth at it.
