You're going for those good "christian" survival rations, huh? Water into wine, loaves and fishes......that sort of stuff. Alex Jones' profit margins must be tanking, while Jim Bakker's 'prophet' margins are going sky high! Just a little pre-apocalyptic humor there.

is to be as fit as Alex Jones, you might want to raise that bar just alittle higher. That's said in jest, just to make myself perfectly clear.

The man's a walking heart attack. They say you can hear his arteries harden clear across a crowded room. Not that it would be a bad thing, mind you.

I saw that chocolate drink crap he sells. Made from all natural chicken powder, if I'm not mistaken. Whatever the hell "chicken powder" is, beyond vomit inducing.

I found out what the "chicken powder" is. I'm not sure if you REALLY want to know but you're going to anyway: They put chicken bones in a pot of water and boil the fuck out of them until they dissolve, then put the resultant mess through a dehydrator to get chicken powder. Apparently there is a huge fad of people drinking boiled-to-extinction chicken bones.

NEVER joke about something as disgusting as "chicken powder".

I saw that episode of Oliver's show on HBO (they had a 'free' weekend on DirectTV) It was hilarious!

She runs our sideline business, selling custom shirts and stuff. She works a few gun shows, which we are getting out of really. I go and help if the show is in my area, she lives in another town.

This show is way down! Last year when the "Hillary for Prison" shirts were all the rage, I tried to tell some of them. My girlfriend and some of the other vendors I trust. Be careful what you ask for, we need that boogieman to keep the shows going! If Hillary had won, this show would be packed to the walls! As it is, they had trouble even getting vendors to come.

get away with it, he'd be as likely as anyone to go after guns. His type would feel much safer if we were like Australia and some of the other countries that are sane about guns. They just can't tell the base that.

The garbage disposal under the kitchen sink had a small leak that was starting to get larger, so I wanted to fix that before it became a major issue. Can’t have dirty dishes piling up.

And we did it all without one weapon (because liberals don't own guns)

Sent them running
