Ever wonder why the ladies back in the day had such wonderful butts and thighs? (Legs!)

That’s because they generally WALKED everywhere.

I’m sure there’s a lesson in there somewhere, ladies.

Tells nothing yeoelkang? Looks like something to me.

And you gotta love Musdar Effy Djinis. Mussy old chap, you have to work on that whole abstract concept of 1953.

These are the guys that see a map in a shopping mall that says “You Are Here” and then spend ten minutes wondering “How do they know that?”

Why do I love crossbows?

Well, for a start, they don’t make a huge noise like a rifle or shotgun does when in close proximity to your prey.

All prey animals get ‘gun shy’. It’s a fact of life. They become so used to the ‘bang’ of a powder weapon that it becomes near impossible to go back to the same spot and hunt again.

But with a bow or crossbow, you get in so close you can ’smell’ the target animal. Then you draw a bead on the animal. Then you depress the trigger. Thump! And your prey is dead, it just hasn’t had time to assimilate that fact, plus, it has no idea where the shot came from. No noise, get it?

An animal will, after the herd member has been shot, will go back to eating or grazing, not sure why one of it’s kind has fallen down and died. So, you get another shot, which doesn’t happen if you have a noisy cannon with you.

Dear Mr. Grassell, I like your cross bow, and in recent time I hope will be built it for shooting monkeis in my cacao plantation. I think it is a sophisticated yet cheap weapon which suitable to developing countries for hunting vertebrate pest especially wild pigs, monky etc. Thanks.

This reminds of some of the wonderful projects I saw in some old DIY american book in my school library. Pretty nifty and detailed toys like a paddle steamer, an old wild west steam locomotive and others. All our of wood. I don’t even remember the name of the books now.
