Lol......I grew up on Roy Rogers & Dale Evans each Saturday morning. I couldn't hardly wait for his show on TV.
Yes indeed.........you couldn't grow up in the early 50s without a cap pistol w/a holster.

I had a single action cowboy revolver with a holster too, but they got thrown away.

Saturday’s were a lot of fun then , with the ones we mention , The Lone Ranger , Tarzan , The Three Stooges ,some times Shirley Temple and if I remember right there were MGM short films also .

You haven't been right since. From that point on you vowed that nobody would ever take your guns again. It must have been hard to use your finger when the rest of the kids had guns while playing "shoot em up".

No....I didn't have this type.......mine was from an old broom handle that was tossed out by my Aunt.
You know the broom handle kind like Pelosi rides back & forth to work each day.

Last year sometime, I looked up Roy Rogers old black & white TV shows on YouTube......Dang, there they are. I watch about two of'em.

I had the broom handle. He was first born , and got the good stuff. It was handed down when he graduated to a tricycle. Mobo wasn't fast enough. You pushed down on the pedals and he moved forward a few inches with each push.

Lulz....

I also had a horse that was suspended in air on a frame and attached with heavy springs. You held onto handles coming out of his ears and rocked back and forth, and up and down.

I figured you read the stories in the papers and celebrated the successful resistance of 1812 by playing with a stick and rock.

That is what's wrong with our country. Antiquated constipation laws.

I can tell them how to solve some of those constipation deaths ...


If you are still constipated after drinking this , you were going to die anyway and nobody could stop it . Lol

The idiots otherwise know as the City of Denton.

Client has a holding tank that catches any water, oil, greases ext spilled on their shop floor. It's rusted out and leaking so we're set to replace it in Feb. Knew a land disturbance permit is required so PM requested that the other day. Now these idiots say we need a pluming permit, which requires stamped engineer drawings and approval from industrial pre-treatment department. Damn tank isn't discharging, never has and never has had a permit to discharge to the POTW. It's just a static tank!

Idiots!
