What do you reckon he gave Putin...a sealed copy of "Dr. Zhivago" on VHS?

I read his speech this evening and this was the best line. I can just see Pootin smiling and nodding. Makes me wanna buy more bullets, but I'm having trouble finding the damn things.

So THAT'S what he gave him.

Wish he would have just kept it simple...maybe a case of Colt .45 and a carton of Kools.

Get yourself one of Russia's own Mosin Nagant long rifles....7.62 x 54r ammo is dirt cheap.....60 rounds for $19.95

I used to have one of those, oblong muzzle, only ammo I could find was Norma @ $1 a pop, couldn't hit a five gallon bucket at 100yds. But I did manage to kill a deer and a big assed turkey with it.

Reckon I'll just stick with my M77 Ruger .25-06 with a 3x9 chunk of Bausch & Lomb glass. I can hit something with it, a ways off, too.

Slim Pickins, "Doctor Strangelove".

Now how many of them "bonus points" am I gonna get?

Now if I'd have written the score to that movie, I'd have replaced "Johnny Marching Home" with "I'm a Good Ol' Rebel". But that's just me, and it wouldn't have worked as well.

I can see why I ain't never got a job out in Holleyweird. Slim was a class act, huh?
