Ye Gods! She kept using the word "fling", but I had a mental image of .30-06 round being chambered followed by a trip to taxidermist.

Maybe "fling" meant "I'll give you a five minute head start"?

__   Does husband or any of his family or friends own a gun?
__   Is husband a master of a martial art?
__   Does husband own a crowbar?
__   Does husband have enough money to hire someone who owns a gun or a crowbar?


If the answer to any of the above questions is yes then your answer to the lady in question is NO.

This is modified from my original list which began "Is husband a pacifist?"  With age comes wisdom.

Oh, sure, that's what they all say.

I would like to thank those who offered sage advice. I am impressed with the wealth of knowledge on this subject. Because of this, I have perhaps avoided a serious life error; however, despite her encumbrances, she is really good looking and I am now reduced to shopping for cell phones tonight as I have nothing else to do. I hope you are all happy!

Try the cell phone store..pretty safe. I will not be going to Idaho for a while..which is a bummer because I am a dry-fly nut.

Now for something more manly. A computer wargame!

Allied Aces to date:

23rd and 24th FG USAAF have been doing some heavy lifting in the CBI theater. 23rd FG include pilots from AVG which was folded into the 23rd.

Speaking of mineral supplements and the like. She called me again last night and wanted me to meet her again. It seems she is in town
for her adoptive father's funeral..and it was the next day (today in other words).

Aj caramba! I begged off but I think I just entered a hex with 20,000 sea mines and have no minesweeper. If I don't post anything for 7 calender days without explanation please call the Orange County Sheriff's Dept. and any taxidermists you can find in the phone book.

Cool idea about the Viking funeral but make sure you file an EIA. The Coastal Commission will eat you alive if you don't. Also, don't forget Snuggles, my teddy bear and the copy of Killer Angels on the nightstand. I shall be wanting something to read in Valhalla.

Please note, the generally accepted spelling for the envelopment of military target is "siege". Our research does indicate; however, that
among certain inbred groups "seige" is an accepted alternative. Under no circumstances is the spelling "Japanes" correct for the residents of Japan. Thank you for you kind cards and letters.

margin note: Please make sure that cretin, Terminus, is off the invite list. Also, make sure the secretary doesn't include any more margin notes in the published text. That can be God awful awkward.

Mr. Hoover peruses a field report on Operation Clean Sweep. He leans back in his chair, the binder resitng on is lipid laden belly. He seems impressed. He picks up the microphone for a wire recorder and toggles the switch.

"Miss Whitehead, remind me to hire more Mormons. They are very thorough and are most unlikely to be Communists or homosexuals" <he stiffles a giggle and briefly toggles the record button> "Also, get the author of this report in here. I want to know how MacArthur got on this list. I thought he was dead or abducted or something"
