the War of Southern Aggression Soldier shot in head survives for decades. His picture is pretty wicked looking

    Actually he did rejoin the fight. After his platoon retreated 2i safer position, and left him for dead. He used his rifle as a staff and went back to his cartoons position, found the nurse to fill his canteen so I can resume. fighting

    Goes to show you that a Yankee can function just as good as a rebel with a hole in his head... The only difference is that rebel are born with holes in their heads... A Yankees hole in their head has got to be put there by traumatic Force[:0][:0][B)][:p][:D][:D]

    My experience is that most Yankees could well indeed benefit from a forceful traumatic Southern applied Hole in the Head. [:D]

    Great shootin', Reb! Give that marksman a cigar.
    Speaking of cigars, the Yank could carry a spare one in that hole! Looks like a .69 or maybe a .58. How was his brain not affected?

    Being from Utah, (?) I'd consider you a NorthWesterner. [^] Yankees are in my mind, typically from the New England States.

    If encounterinh a p p yankee requiring a forceful (Southern applied) traumatic application of a hole in the Cranium, (If it were me) I'd bring my trusty single shot Bull barreled bipod equipped NEF 17HMR.

    Given the amount of brain matter usually exhibited in most Yankees, that round should do just fine taking care of the Walnut sized Brain matter usually encountered. [:0][B)][:D][}:)]




    Of course with that Walnut sized target rattling around in a full sized human head, it might be a challenge. [;)]

    Well if you're talking about New Englanders, their Walnut size brain doesn't rattle around in their head. It's surrounded by fecal matter[:0][B)][:D][:D]

    Very strange. I guess it (the autocensor) thought I was attempting to spell something that required (3 times) the use of (h a p p y) instead of what I kept typing. One word ended with a G followed (seperately) by an A, then the next word began with a Y.


    Too funny.
