Calling the Bluff

Calling the Bluff

 

Yes, I do have

a few obsessional traits ..

I also have

a dozen or so machetes,

plus a taser

and a shiny new Walther CP88 ..

So remind me

what is your problem exactly ..

    I hear just a bit of touchiness in this. I better measure my words well in this comment and may already have stepped over my bounds. I always sleep with a machete under my pillow, just in case

    • Neville



      I tend to sleep under the mattress these nights wearing a crash helmet and with both barrels cocked .. N

    • Jerry Reynolds

      I am out of range. But I will watch it for sure. I had a chuckle over that one, Neville

      • Neville



        Cheers Jez ..

        Having watched all the 007 flicks, yes, you Brits would say that. Since there's always more than one way to skin a cat, I think I'll leave it at that. Sweetly rendered in to the point brevity with fascinatingly telling details and a none too subtle poignancy, thank you very much for sharing.

          Cheers Missy .. I'm not really keen on guns but am wondering about a Glock πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

          • Cheeky Missy

            All I have done in the category of firearms presently is secure my foid, beyond that, nothing, since I'm a firm believer in there being more than one way to skin a cat. I've heard glocks are top notch. I've heard other things too.

            Sounds like someone that one would say 'Hello' to, and get the reply 'What do ya mean hello? I will punch ya on the nose for saying that!''

              ............... Maybe

            • Accidental Poet

              Well since you asked, there is a immature delusional maniac running for the office only someone of mature competence is allowed to enter. Have taser, straight jacket and men in white coats ready for acquisition. πŸ™„

                .. Sounds like a plan .. count me in ... N πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

                  P's forgive my delayed response Dave .. I couldn't find anywhere to void .. (it would have been too easy peasy to have just said P) .......... I think it's an age thing ... maybe .. Neville

                • Thomas W Case

                  Lol. I love this, my friend.

                  • Neville



                    Thank you Tom .. N

                    I almost hesitate to say in this judgmental world, but I am also armed to the teeth. Better to have it and not need it...

                    • Neville


                      There are hardly any hand guns legitimately held or owned over here .. there is an increasing number of illegally possessed ones tho' and tasers are a no no unless used by the police .. knives are frowned on and illegal to hold & machetes too unless working on a sugar plantation .. p.s there are no sugar plantations over here .. I used to own a pea shooter as a kid .. Cheers .. Neville

                      Protection perfect eh Neville? I do have a Swiss Army knife. LOL

                      • Neville



                        Good man .. I once had one of those little knives that had an extra blade for getting boy scouts out of horses hooves .. πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

                      • Tom Dylan

                        This one made me smile, Neville. There was almost an Eastwood 'Go ahead, make my day,' ending. Loved it.

                        • Neville



                          it was probably my watching one of his more recent movies that made me think along these lines .. I do by the way know one of Mr. Eastwoods former drivers 'Geoff' who lives not far from me .. Neville

                          • Tom Dylan

                            Very cool, Neville. Clint Eastwood is a legend. πŸ™‚

                          • Ezekiel Olayemi

                            That's so nice πŸ‘

                            • Neville



                              Then I shall not rest until I have thanked you and returned the favour .. Thank you .. Neville πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘
