It's funny. There's a guy in Brazil by the name of "Marcio.Israel." He's a tour guide and publishes video shorts of IDF and Israeli Border patrol soldiers (mostly females and mostly a$$ shots) taken all over Jerusalem, but primarily in the "Western Wall" plaza.. I attribute that to his being Brazilian. Remember, where folks in North America / Europe focus on "boobs." folks in South America (Argentina and Brazil) focus on the "derriere." Brazil even has an annual "Miss Bum Bum" pageant.





Sheesz, the guitar guy is pretty damned good!

Now, a question. If you look at a lot of these videos of the soldiers in formation, you'll see that most of the ladies have their hair out in a free fall or a long pony tail. I believe US Military (especially the Marine Corps) requires long hair to be "bunned up." I think also US LE also requires that hair be bunned up. THe logic being, if you're engaging in Hand-to-Hand combat, a long pony tail is an easy thing for an opponent to grab onto to gain an advantage. With the hair in a bun, it is much less so. And for LEOs in class "A" uniforms the tie is a "clip on" for the very same reason... if it's pulled upon, it comes right off.

Is there some skill IDF soldiers have to counter an attack with full hair?

trivia: Cali area of Colombia is along the west coast of Colombia. 200 years ago or so African slaves were introduced to this area for various reasons (Colombia ignores this history for the most part), so many women have naturally big bootys in this part of Colombia
 

An old warhorse rides again:

A Colt M1877 'Lightning' revolver built in 1902 chambered in .38 Long Colt and exhibiting major rust and pitting from being stored inside it's leather holster for decades is restored back into operating condition.




In the black powder and 1911 shooting circles, it is well documented that blued steel and leather holsters do NOT mix when it comes to long term security and upkeep of conditions. Genuine leather holsters have a tendency to wick ambient moisture out of the air where the accumulated water droplets will then interact with the firearm stored inside in a negative fashion. When stored for long periods of time, it is common wisdom now to store guns and holsters/gun socks and sleeves separately inside a moisture proof display and transport case with a few fresh silica gel packs tossed in and rotated as needed for the best reliability.

keep em clean and dry and you won’t have them problems

Brother in laws bachelor party and one of his moron friends like those guys…I’m not. My brother in law actually jokingly said “Brian doesn’t really screw around”. In hindsight he knew what usually happens.

After a bunch of drinking he started fucking around with the other guys, I was kind of the odd man out in the crew.

He came up behind me and hit my balls with his club while I was setting up

I turned around a hit him with a elbow, his cheek swelled up like a balloon at the strip club..he looked like the elephant man
 
As you are walking home on a hot afternoon clinging to the shade of trees along the sidewalk and desperately trying to keep the cone that you had just bought from the Mister Softee truck from melting too quickly, your chances of being suddenly struck in the buttcheeks by an Atlatl Powered War Dart is very slim. But not zero... LOL

 
It's funny they blame the union when the main reason bad teachers can get another job is they have a license and places have trouble finding enough licensed teachers to fill the jobs. So anyone with a license can easily find 10 jobs. Just one more example of how government intervention and licensing has ruined something.

My wife gave me an atlatl for my birthday a few years back. I never played with it much because I lived in town at the time. This reminds me it's time to bring it up from the basement.
