Though I will admit, I never understood the phrase "they can have my gun when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers".  If someones intent was to take my gun from me, then they would recover it as soon as possible after killing me for it, and therefor I would most likely still be warm.  So wouldn't the phrase be more acurate if it was "they can have my gun when they pry it from my WARM, dead fingers"?

Actually the adjectives aren't needed.  They just clarify the originator's point.

I don't know how wise a public admission that is anymore.

That's ok because everyone here already understands Fodder's Cannon and his taste for long hard thick black barrels.

He's obviously intimidated by Dongs.

Pot and the Right to Pursue Happiness

"Pot smokers smoke in the privacy of their own home, or in their backyards, or on their porches at night, simply to enhance their spirit and enjoy their lives. Some use it to relieve pain, ease stress, and tame diseases which were not of their own making. For some it is recreation, others medication. What matters is that the choice is theirs, the right ours.

Our government protects many rights, and our country was born with a bill of them. The first of these is a right to pursue happiness, one our courts have somehow forgotten to guard or jealously protect."
