It's a bit hypocritical of me as I spent a substantial portion of my childhood playing Army in the wooded areas that snaked through the town I grew up in (Denison, TX) but I'm not a fan of kids with guns. I'm not talking about the song, I like that, but children playing with fake guns. All I have to do is look around at the violence that sometimes plagues the community I currently call home to know that our youth has become beyond desensitized to gun imagery; I actually saw a a kid no older than 12 at the corner store last week wearing a pair of jeans that was polka dotted in Glock 9's.
Having said that...I sooooo want a fully-automatic Nerf vulcan cannon. No, I NEED a fully-automatic Nerf vulcan cannon. It shoots three darts per second and that is nothing but a good thing. I wonder if Nerf products are on the list of items banned from the HDC?

I know what I'm asking for....
and i thought my brother was crazy for putting that on his wedding gift registry...
Denison, Texas? Holy shit, I grew up in Sherman. This blog may be one of the better things to come out of that part of Texas.

Small world. I was actually born in Sherman (Wilson N. Jones Hospital). But screw the Bearcats...the Yellow Jackets OWN the Axe!
Uhh...DD Eisenhower was born in Denison. Although I love this blog very much, I would have to say that it is eclipsed.
True indeed. And they LOVE them some Dwight David in Denison. EVERYTHING is the Eisenhower Memorial something or another.
Ha, I was born in WNJ, too. And I think Sherman's got the all-time lead in the Battle of the Axe (though apparently y'all got it this year).
And I said "one of the better" things, not the best thing. I might also put Buck Owens on that list.
No doubt, the chap is totally fair.
