The CZickness XLIV Girding our loins for 2022

[hANNAbONE]

Over yonder with us'ins we are looking at heavy rain then 1-8" of snow. Luckily for this snow event, I don't have anything scheduled outside the office after today (yet).

so what day is this snow rolling into you folks in Canada..?

I keep checking here in the Arid Belt and we get rain but nothing about SCHNOW.!!

They made me start acting more civilized. Supposedly people were complaining.

Those weren't complaints

Spicyweiner is wearing pants now sometimes? What the hell has happened since I've been gone?

There was a smell…..

 

[Leadeye]

I've got two guns, one for each of you.

He had a Colt Lightning and an SAA in the Tombstone movie, nice looking guns!

That's not what she said

Something I've never done before is learned how to fan a revolver properly.

Not to mention the restraining order.

You’ve got the perfect candidate to try it out.

 

[T-DOGG]

Not to mention the restraining order.

That only applies in Amsterdam.

Something tells me the times you have done it were probably very improper. LOL

There's no "proper" way to do it and it's always hard on the mechanism. The two handed holds the cowboy action people use are better and much more accurate, but doesn't look as good.

Old Colts have twice the mainspring power of anybody's repros and require a serious hit if you want to fan them, I would get an Uberti for having fun.

Something tells me that some good leather gloves would be helpful for this as well.

Sissy. Calluses are your friend.

Very true.

It's tougher to do than it looks because you have to get the hammer all the way back unless you do it hard enough to spin the cylinder faster. The hammer can end up not hitting the primer. Hitting the gun at an oblique angle to get your hand to slide over the hammer and carry it back doesn't help keep it on target either. It's fun though just to see how close you can get to hitting something.

Good morning
Flocks of cranes returning yesterdsy. Early spring?

No early Spring ... Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this year, so we have 6 more weeks of winter.

If the rodent hadn't seen his shadow, Spring would be here in about a month and a half.

So the fix is already in.

Winter came late this season.

Oh, and I forget Crepes......wife's dad made an "industrial" Crepe maker. You just fill the batter hopper and can make Cremes 8 or 10" wide by.........almost 24" wide....... runs on 220v just like everything does in

Czech Republic......CZ!!!!! they even know how to do breakfast right!!!!

 

[Lee11b]

......Crepes 8 or 10" wide...... guess I got hungry typing this up. Wife's parents were originally from CZ, defected to Australia, in 1968. Her dad was an engineer.....so I got the best of the world. Wife can cook traditional European dishes BUT.... cuss and sware with the best of ya blokes!!!!
