Keep on Snappin'!
I liked #210 a bit more, but this one had its moments. Particularly when Glynn was goin' after "The Poopie Man"- LOL @ that one. Liked the Cuban(?)-sounding music bit in Break A.
Oh- and that thing about frightening a bunch of yahoos by firing blanks at 'em with a muzzle loading rifle? Been there, done that. When I was in college, there was a rowdy frat house next door and they used to party all night. (Typically annoying college frat boys, right?) So one night their partying went out on the lawn and woke me up. Well, at the time I was part of a group doing historical Civil War reenactments (yeah- I'm a nerd), and so I just happened to have this working replica of an 1863 .58 caliber Springfield rifle... with some black powder and caps...
