I don't use nunchucks. I prefer a bo staff that can also be used as a blow gun.

I prefer .357, .45, 9mm. Either works well when used correctly.

I thought we were talking martial arts weapons, since the context was the fat guy swinging a set of nunchucks. For firearms, I'll go with my 9mm concealed carry.

A&W up here uses paper straws now. They are terrible. Didn’t we switch from paper to plastic in the 80s to save the rainforests? Lol

back in the 70's before they started that silly bracket racing i was at the Raceway Park in NJ whenever it was open.
besides working there, i also ran my 66 chevelle SS
250 6 cylinder, M22 4 speed trans and 4:10 posi rear.
i was track eliminator 4 times. car ran a consistent 11.35 1/4 mile.

needless to say it did not have a stock engine in it.
i actually made more money racing with that car than i had into it.
the crowds got a kick out of the fact i was racing in my police uniform, complete with gun in the holster..





and yall better be careful. they pissed me off in work today, and i picked up a fifth of jack and a 2 liter of coke.
i am already working on pint glass #2.

It was a Chevelle that was the only car to beat me off the line. I did race two different cop cars and beat them both - badly.

Are you still LEO?

no. i was in a really bad wreck in 82 and broke my neck. was in a halo for 18 months, then took another 18 months to relearn how to walk.
that put a real damper on my police and fire department career.
i do heavy construction now. ran a body shop and a heavy equipment escort service for 20 years.
i refused to be a deadbeat disability leach.
it is not easy and i am always in pain, but i make my own way.

Buddy had a 63 dodge dart with a modified slant 6 that ran on or very close to the NHRA record. Name of the car was Six Pack to Go. Ran E/MP... can't remember?

What are you gonna drink when you get done with the jack appetizer?
