IF a woodchuck could chuck wood, a woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a wood chuck could chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood.
I personally think it's more fun to say the answer than to ask the question

I like Pie .... cherry ... or cobbler ... but not the leather shoe making cobblers. However, my dad made boots in Lubbock, taught Willie Lusk how in the 1940s.... and dad was nice.

Re: Trying something out
You know, I wonder if Obama has any guns, wouldn't it be cool to have a range at the White House. I guess he could just ask the secret service for one of their guns if he was so inclined. I know I would if I was prez. LoadedLiberal '12i8godzilla wrote:I like this one.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31. -- "After a little practice, I am coming along strong," declared President Roosevelt to-day, after he had hit the bull's-eye at fifty yards on the shooting range of Surgeon General Rixey's farm, near Cherrydale, Va., just across the Potomac River from Washington.

Re: Trying something out
Or you can go back to the Lincoln White House...

http://www.mrlincolnswhitehouse.org/ins ... ubjectID=4" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
One night early in the war, according to biographer Ida Tarbell, a Navy Department clerk was working late when he was interrupted by "some one striding up and down the hall muttering: 'I do wonder if they have gone already and left the building all alone.' Looking out, the clerk was surprised to see the President. 'Good evening,' said Mr. Lincoln. 'I was just looking for that man who goes shooting with me sometimes. The clerk knew that Mr. Lincoln referred to a certain messenger of the Ordnance Department who had been accustomed to going with him to test weapons, but as this man had gone home, the clerk offered his services. Together they went to the lawn south of the White House, where Mr. Lincoln fixed up a target cut from a sheet of white Congressional note-paper. 'Then pacing off a distance of about eighty or a hundred feet,' writes the clerk, 'he raised the rifle to a level, took a quick aim, and drove the round of seven shots in quick succession, the bullets shooting all around the target like a Gatling gun and one striking near the centre.'" The President then adjusted the gun's sight with his own self-whittled sight addition and improved his shooting considerably.4

Re: Trying something out
Human Decomp?
The Casey Anthony trial, and may CSI-type shows often refer to the smell of "Human Decomp".
So I have to ask, is there something distinctive about "Human Decomp", that smells different from "regular" decomp? Why?

I think they jury did it's job, I think she did it but they did not prove their case and the burden of proof lies with the prosecution.
