Over the years I have kept my lovely wife informed whenever I was about to make major purchases. Backhoes, tractors, skid loaders, etc.... So today I told her that i couldnt decide between rifle calibers that I really wanted. She said "what are they?" I replied with a short summary "I can't decide between a .300 Win Mag or the .338 Lapua Magnum". I thought this would be the end of the conversation since she has no idea what either are, but she replied with a question, "l-a-p-u-a"? I smiled and answered "yes". She said "You should get the Lapua, I like that name, Lapua..." I explained so she could understand, "But honey, the Lapua costs something like $5 a round to shoot." She said "So? L-A-P-U-A...it's fun to say, we should get a yellow lab puppy for Kate and name it 'Lapua'." So, I'm getting the LM. And a puppy.

Opinion,untempered by fact,is ignorance.
There are some who do not fear death... for they are more afraid of not really living |

Since this is a safe place, I can also confide in you all that... today when I told her the Colts made it into the playoffs she asked if that meant they had a chance to make it to the "Final Four".

Mine would say, "the recoil from something like that would make you more goofy than you already are, why don't you get another .22-.250 or .243, somthing that you could watch me shoot".

When you are dead, you don't know you are dead.It is difficult only for others.
It is the same when you are stupid. |

Mine told me yesterday to go around and empty all the water hoses cause they might freeze and burst!
Still trying to decide if that is worse than the time she told me not to staple the Christmas light wiring so tight because it might DIM the lights |

Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.
Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow Now the rules have changed again. |
