Well, Mr. Blankenagel has provided me with the first real impetus to
give up my anti-gun bleeding heart stance. I agree with him fully about
thinning the herds. Now, all I need to do is get myself a penis-substitute,
uh, I mean, gun, and a plane to Beaverton, Oregon, and a Beaverton phone
book, and a Beaverton map....

And if perchance, I should see a small tear ebbing from the beedy little
eye of the misguided young hunter, I shall leave him to stew in his own
very thin juice.
