That's a really cool thing to do. I use to use the name "Rockefeller" when put on the waiting list at a restaurant. Everyone, including my date would get a good laugh out of it.Started out shopping the other day and my girl friend wanted to stop at Starbucks since she got a gift card from work. Not a fan of that place.
We told her we would go in on one condition and she was happy to do it for us. The little snowflake asked her to repeat the name about 4 or 5 times and then spell it for her. She then ran back to tell the other other girl. It was really funny when the boy (?) kid called out the name, not once but several times since we sat as far away as we could and it was crowded. A couple darted really mean looks back at my son until they saw me and then both immediately diverted their looks directly to the floor.
All in all it was a very pleasurable dining experience

I've been tempted to use the name "Trump" as well. The only thing that has stopped me is the fact that I cannot see them preparing my order. Who knows what they are going to put in it.
To me, it's not worth the risk of some snowflake hocking a loogie in my food or drink.
That's my public service announcement to fellow conservatives who share my sense of humor.
Gotta another stand in for the casting couch of rin tin tin.

I saw this on the hide earlier and thought it funny as hell.
Had the daughter help me whip this up as a side dish to the 12# rib roast yesterday. Presented it to a packed table.

Knock it off.
Little known fact: During the latter half of the 19th century it was common for undertakers to wear a holstered sidearm as part of their professional attire. This practice was especially prevalent in the western frontier and may have originated from the Civil War.

The possibilities are endless.
Was this the practice for the necrophiliacs only, or was it generally en vogue?
Shhhhh... this is a picture that we secretly took at AJ's house!

Well an armed cemetery groundskeeper certainly would have discouraged grave robbers. These scoundrels specialized in other crimes too during the lawless days and would have been just as dangerous as your regular bank robbery crew.
From what is known, the practice became common during the Civil War. The scale of the conflict changed the entire face of the American funeral industry. Most undertakers are civilians contracted with the military forces. Wearing a sidearm may have inferred status and special permission to be embedded with a combat unit in the field.
This is right on...
One of the best documentaries of the past few years. It's not Ken Burns, I don't think. But seems like one of his protege's.
A fascinating look at how the Army tried to deal with industrialized death.

That is an incredible documentary. Thanks for posting
Before YouTube you would have to go to one of these huge central library branches like the ones on 42nd Street in NYC to get top quality educational material like this.
A birthday gift from my wife. My father in-law drew this of Gus McCrae and Captain Woodrow Call.
Knock it off.
Target acquired, ranging.....
Triangulation ? I'll help.....
That is some INCREDIBLE talent right there. Much kudos to your father-in-law man. It took me a lot of close looking to see any traces of this being drawn. I thought it was a tintype done with period equipment.
Knock it off.

Oh, here, let me help ...
Death from under a card table...
When many frontier towns started passing ordinances against the carrying of loaded guns in the town limits to try to curb the high levels of drunken violence, gamblers and those who want to defend themselves were left with limited options.
Existing pocket and vest pistols were puny and underpowered...Until folks simply obtained spare barrels for their '51 and '60 Colts and cut them down to snubbies.
Now you got something just as powerful and deadly as a full size martial Colt, that could be easily concealed in a vest or under a hat.
Many of those who succumbed to the urge to cheat at the poker table often discovered that it was the last game they would ever play again:
