Happy thought of the day

Damn I've got a lot of ammo!

Feel free to add your own happy thoughts if you are so inclined . . .

I'm glad I bought most of my guns years ago...before the prices went up!

My boss tells me I should be glad I still have a job, despite the decline in my salary. I am just glad I still remember all the escape routes, safe houses, water caches, and E&E routes "we" set up out of Phoenix in the late 70's and early 80's! (Welcome back, "Carter"!) I just wish I were still on the "Eastside" instead of the "Westside"!

The only time you can have too much ammo is if you are trying to swim.

Keep collecting when you can.

a little here... a little there... trying to find all the components is becoming maddening.. but not impossible.

Of course there is tons of .40 ammo everywhere.. thinking about buying another pistol just so I can get some of the .40 ammo.

I paid attention in a class once.... under report writing 101...

My happy thought... both my bikes and truck are paid for and I'm debt free (other than my mortgage)...

I got this advice the other day: If you are forced to choose between your house payment and your car payment - make your car payment. You can sleep in your car, but you can't drive your house to work!

My kids turned 18 and I do not have to give any more money to the Ex.

Another

I give my money to the kids now instead of the Ex so they really get it now

No she is my second wave. She is #3 and 13 years younger than her Big Sister and 16 years younger than her Big Brother. I often refer to them seperate due to them being so far apart.... Oh and different mothers.

I got my parking refunded from when I paid $10 to park for an hour the other day. The owner's new employee didn't realize that I don't get charged, so he came up to me today and gave me my money back.

An extra ten bucks got me a nicer cigar today
