If you would not be forgotten as soon as you are dead and rotten, either write something worth reading or do things worth the writing. ~ Benjamin Franklin ~

Spirit in the Sky

May 31st, 2006 1 Comment

When I was just a lad in 1970 I heard a song on the old transistor AM radio that stuck in my head. I’m 44 years old now and still sing this song, (…to myself for safety’s sake…), everyday. Now that is a catchy tune! Norman Greenbaum made a huge impact with this song and [...]

Remembering…

THAT is what Memorial Day is all about. Yet even on this day, while our Armed Forces are in harm’s way in far away lands and while our borders leak like sieves and our Border Patrol officers are totally overrun, most Americans will grill hot dogs, eat chips, and watch various ballgames on the tube.

Hunting? When you are Disabled?

May 25th, 2006 4 Comments

I love to shoot. You all know that.

I also love to flyfish, backpack, and hunt. Especially hunt! Doesn’t matter to me if I make a kill or not. Just being out in the wild, seeking the beast on terms Nature herself wrote eons ago. In my case, I prefer to use the ancient flintlock [...]

A Piercing I Wouldn’t Even Consider!

May 23rd, 2006 No Comments

Look, I’m not exactly “normal”. I shave my skull to the skin. I have several, (actually seven), tattoos. I’m a Pagan in the “Bible-belt”. Finally, I also have piercings. Just three at the moment though one of those is prominently displayed in my septum, (That middle part of your nose, hence “Bull”.) I had more, [...]

A New Domain for “The Bull Speaks!”

May 22nd, 2006 No Comments

Finally!

I’ve been wanting to do this since seting up this blog. An easy to remember, self-explainitory, address. Oh, the old one worked just fine, but was terribly long.

Now we have the only one that makes good sense: “TheBullSpeaks.com“.

While either address will get you here for the meantime, please update your links to the new [...]

Minuteman Flag Raising May 20, 2006

It was a clear, hot, windy day. The Minutemen sat the end of the flag pole on the ground, tilted it skyward, lowered it in its foundation hole, and sat it permanently on a hilltop looking back at America and directly at Mexico across the border.

The BEST Black Powder Cleaning Method

May 21st, 2006 No Comments

I thought I’d post this here just in case someone down here has not heard of it yet. We all used this religiously back home in the foothills of South Carolina.

It WILL NOT rust a bore. In fact it tends to protect the metal.

It WILL NOT harm your stock. I use it to clean the [...]

Confusion: The Thin Blue Line Decals

May 20th, 2006 9 Comments

Have you ever noticed those “Thin Blue Line” decals on car bumpers and alternative license plates? Usually these cars belong to an officer or a family member. Understand that I fully support Law Enforcement, (Heck, I damned near married a cop from Staunton, Virginia! (Hey, Karen!)), even when I’ve been caught in speed traps. After [...]

Well, there comes a time when you’ve got to stop and see the truth, no matter what the hurt.

Our Exotic Pet Rescue, Chaos & Critters, is nearing that point. Not there yet, mind you, but we are getting there. We’ve spent quite literally thousands of dollars to save Exotic pets that were abused or were [...]

Abe spoke the Truth!

I was cruising through the blogosphere today when I came across the Blue Star Chronicles. They had a post concerning the Pennsylvania 12 District Congressional race (vs. that perfidious puke, John P. Murtha) that contained - right at the top - a great quote from one of our most cherished Presidents: Abraham Lincoln. That quote, [...]

The U.N. attack on the U.S. Constitution

May 18th, 2006 No Comments

Update: When I posted this earlier today I wrote down the wrong date! You see, this is not the first time the UN has attempted this kind of action. It’s not even the second time. This year’s date for hearings on a Global Gun Ban is - of all dates - July 4th, 2006. They [...]
