Sheilajeanne Report post Posted March 9 (edited) A good Canadian joke: Two priests died at the same time, and met Peter at the Pearly Gates. St. Peter said, "I'd like to let you guys in now, but our computer's down, and we can't get it fixed right away. You will have to go back to Earth for about a week, but you can't go back as priests. What will it be?" The first priest says, "I've always wanted to be an eagle, flying high over the mountains!" "So be it," says Peter, and off flies the first priest. The second priest mulls it over for a minute, then says, "Will any of this week count towards my salvation?" "No" says St. Pete, "I told you, the computer's down, and there's no way we can keep track of what you are doing." "In that case," says the second priest, "I've always wanted to be a stud!" "So be it!" says St. Peter, and the second priest disappears. A week goes by, the computer gets fixed, and the Lord tells St. Peter to recall the two priests. "Will you have any trouble locating them?" he asks. "The first one should be easy," says St. Peter. "He's somewhere over the Rockies, flying with the eagles. But the second one could prove to be more difficult." "Why?" asks the Lord. "He's on a snow tire, somewhere in Saskatchewan!" Bet you didn't see that one coming!

Sheilajeanne Report post Posted June 24 I went fishing this morning, but after a short time, I ran out of worms. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a cottonmouth with a frog in his mouth. "Frogs are good bass bait," I thought to myself. Knowing the snake couldn't bite me with the frog in his mouth, I grabbed him right behind the head, took the frog, and put it in my bait bucket. Just then, I realized I had a problem, how was I going to release the snake without getting bit? So, I grabbed my bottle of Jack Daniel's and poured a little whiskey in its mouth. The snakes eyes rolled back and he went limp. I released him into the lake without incident and carried on fishing using the frog. A little later, I felt a nudge at my foot. There was that same snake with two more frogs in his mouth. Life is good in the South. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredk Report post Posted July 4 An old cowboy was sitting in his favourite bar having a drink In walks a very pretty lady motorcyclist. Puts down her crash helmet and orders 3 fingers of scotch. neat The cowboy thinks, this is my sort of woman, so he goes over and asks if he could buy her a drink The woman says no, looks at him, up and down, and says 'I'm lesbian' Whats that asks the cowboy 'I work hard, I play hard, I drink hard, I ride my motorcycle fast, I make love to women, and I have no truck with men' The next day a family calls into the bar for eats. The young children are excited and run over to the old cowboy. They ask him ' Mister, are you a REAL cowboy?' The cowboy thought for a moment then says 'Until yesterday I thought so but today I think I'm a lesbian' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fredk Report post Posted July 5 What size of ball does it take? a friend had a 3 pounder and it sent his retriever dogs crazy when he shot off a ball - they wanted to fetch the ball back but couldn't find it, it was about a mile away! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bladegrinder Report post Posted July 5 It has a 1" bore. I haven't shot any ball out of it yet, I load it with 180 grains of 1F blackpowder and ball up a slice of bread and jam that down. it's a hoot! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredk Report post Posted July 5 That would make it 5 or 6 gauge, about 2.6 to 3 oz ball. That could do some serious damage Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bladegrinder Report post Posted July 5 I'm a knifemaker and have a nice heat treating oven, it actually came with programs for clay work. I've thought about making some hard clay balls for it, it would be cheap ammo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sheilajeanne Report post Posted July 5 Oh, the stories I could tell about my late husband's love of black powder! He and his brother and a group of their engineering student friends are the reason the cannons in front of Hart House at the University of Toronto got filled with concrete! Fortunately, the black powder charge did not cause the barrel of the ancient cannon to explode, and the ball only made it as far as the lawn of the legislature buildings at Queen's Park! Do NOT underestimate the ingenuity of the U of T engineering students!! They are legendary for their crazy pranks! And they still love to play with black powder: https://www.utoronto.ca/news/uoftgrad17-kaboom-u-t-engineering-students-celebrate-convocation-cannon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
