Queen Mamabeth has outlawed turkey pot pies since discovering
she has a turkey neck that shakes everytime she moves her head!

I was finally able to post my summation thread.

not to worry... I already know the under the pillow trick, and also the in the nightstand one too, and the in the shed one, and the under the couch one...... got um while you were sleeping like a baby!

(did I tell you I am the proud owner of 16 firearms?

If you only got 16, you missed a couple... did you check the freezer? Inside the ceramic table lamp base?

better check the chambers, we left all the guns and only took the bullets!!!

Smooth move! Evil, but smooth! You really ought to read a short story I wrote called "Warpaint". It's not at ATS, because it's not T+C friendly, but it IS on the internet, at a site I went to reconnoiter and then dissolved my membership at. They wouldn't "let" me leave or delete my account, so I went in and deleted everything but the account itself, including login info, which I reckoned to be as good as an account deletion.

In that story, towards the end, the "good guy" did that bullet-pull thing to the "bad guy" - as if either were entirely one or the other! Anyhow, the "bad guy" never learned why God gave us pockets, I guess - he had no backup for that ominous "CLICK" sound. Score one for the away team.

My exes all wondered why I always sleep with my pants on - they allowed as how it was to keep them out of my wallet and away from my car keys, but not so! It's because pants pockets are where the backup stuff stays! I always gave them whatever money I had, and they had their own cars, so I never quite figured out why they wanted my wallet or car keys bad enough to rage about me sleeping in my pants!

Maybe THEY wanted to get hold of my backup bullets for some nefarious purpose, too!

Hi guys. Purple, thanks for providing the list! This has evolved so much that it is even better than I ever could imagine.

The support, involvement of all has been overwhelming.

You all are awesome.
