When you say "Stanley knife" I think of this (in my family, we always
called them "carpet knives"):
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=3359

When you say "Box Cutter", I think of a thin handle for a single
edge razor blade, with a sliding metal sheath, the whole thing is maybe
5mm thick. Can't find a pic of it on the 'net. They were cheap, you could
buy one for maybe $0.25 in the 70's or you could often get a free one as 
advertising.
I had a yellow one with Schweppes' beverages logo on it when I was a wee lad.

 From Wiki:"In Australia, it is illegal to sell a cutting implement such as a 
utility knife to 
anyone under 16 years of age, and proof of age is often demanded of purchasers."

Re: [MBZ] Air guns wielding binge drinking yahoos who are the doom of civilization

2008-06-22 Thread Hendrik & Fay
Not completely sure how they came to that number but I suspect health 
care professionals where behind it, coupled with a government wanting to 
be seen to be doing something...anything about a media beat up that 
teens are drinking themselves stupid every day, which they have been 
doing since the invention of alcohol.
Anyway you can twist definitions around in lots of ways, for instance if 
you are speeding you are committing a criminal act and if you get caught 
you are a criminal.

Re: [MBZ] Air guns

2008-06-22 Thread Peter Frederick
The actual definition of alcoholism is drinking to the point that the  
alcohol consumption greatly interferes with one's life.  Counting the  
drinks isn't quite the same as not being able to keep a job or  
compulsive lying. etc.

After all, four beers for a 95 lb woman is a lot more beer per lb  
that four beers for a 250 lb, fit male.

It's not the alcohol that counts, it's the addiction that counts.

Better be quiet - or one day those people who want to ban everything will 
realize the common factor in shootings, knifings, beatings, etc is the 
hands.  Yep, ban or register hands and the problem will be solved.  Trouble

That's pretty much right, although the current focus is on binge drinking.
Apparently if you drink more than 4 standard drinks in a day you are a 
binge drinker, if you drink more than 4 on more than one day a week you 
are an alcoholic.

Airsoft might have a higher rate of fire than a Crosman 760, but what will
it do to a pigeon, sting it to death?
That Caselman is an interesting toy, but I think this would be more in line
with Wilton's style and dignity.

Now that 20 mm would take care of my squirrel problem, Wilton!  Doubt I'd be
able to find enough squirrel left to eat after the 20 MM hit though.  Might
not find the tree, either.

I think there's somethng about doing something learned years ago that allows 
concentration to take over and remove the tremors.  I'll bet he got great 
pleasure from afternoons like you spent with him --  hopefully others 
stepped in when you were not there -

Course, shooting is a great sport whch is sadly disappearing with the loss 
of more and more easily accessible ranges.   I suspect surburban sprawl is 
making the land more valuable as a housing tract...
