It’s best to
a: Match your speed with traffic
b: Look and see where cars are
c: Try to find an open spot in the traffic flow, and speed up or slow down to get into it.

Do NOT run down the ramp and match your speed to a car and just change lanes while talking on the phone, forcing the person you are changing lanes into to slam on the brakes to avoid being hit.

Or I will kill you.

Understand?

Over here, steve is talking about meeting a woman who more or less introduced herself by telling him he needed to change.

This reminded me of a woman I met ages ago who did the same to me- told me I should stay away from meat, altogether, be a vegetarian, or perhaps even a more enlightened vegan.

Here’s my reaction to that. Vegetarians are food. Let’s look at the animals in nature:

Vegan animals:

Elephant.
Cow
Pig
Moose
Deer
Elk

Carnivores:

Lion
Wolf
Fox
Coyote
Tiger
Puma
Panther
Cougar

Me? Wolf. Not a cow. In nature, vegetarians are fat, lumbering, slow. Carnivores are muscled, fast and sleek.

Nuff said.

Last issue on the marlin solved last night. The sucker jammed every time you jacked a shell in, and it dawned on me that the cartridge stop wasn’t anywhere near the cartridge. It was still set for a 30-30 shell, and the short size of the 44 mag shell would allow about one and a half shells in the pre-battery position.

So I glued in a spacer.

And it worked like a charm. I jacked ten rounds through it in quick sucession.

I was so tickled I could have cried. And then the glue broke off and it jammed again. But i know what I have to do, and now I’ll pin the spacer in place. And then it’s off to blue.
