Some good logic, especially in OV!

This is from a friend of mine who got it from some other site, which supposedly came from an episcopal preist. I am gald I can claim episcopal on my dog tags. Thanks CB

Marksmanship
1) Beware of the man with one gun.
2) Fancy guns, sights, and gadgetry do not make up for a lack of marksmanship.
3) If you can't do it with a .30-06 you probably can't do it with anything else.
4) If you can't do it with a 2 MOA firearm you probably can't do it with anything else.
5) Sight picture and trigger control are life.
6) Practice, practice, practice!
7) A close miss is still a miss.
8) Smoothness first, the speed will come.
9) Most gun writers are pathological liars.

Internal Ballistics
1) There ain't no magic powders!
2) Details! It's in the details.
3) Tiny increments in velocity are meaningless.
4) Most gun writers are pathological liars.

External Ballistics
1) There ain't no magic bullets!
2) Divide the range at which someone claims to have shot their deer by 4 to get the real range.
3) Always get as close as possible.
4) Don't believe manufacturer's claims.
5) In the battle between velocity and accuracy, accuracy always wins.
6) Most gun writers are pathological liars.

Terminal Ballistics
1) There ain't no magic bullets!
2) Only center hits count
3) Make the biggest diameter hole you can to let blood out and air in.
4) Make the deepest hole you can to insure that vital organs and nerve centers can be reached from all impact angles.
5) "Service" your threat until it is no longer a threat.
6) No small arm can guarantee 100% instant incapacitation of a determined adversary--man or beast.
7) Don't believe manufacturer's claims.
8) Most gun writers are pathological liars.

Gunfighting
1) Bring a gun. Preferably, bring at least two guns. Bring all of your friends who have guns.
2) Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive.
3) If your shooting stance is good, you're probably not moving fast enough nor using cover correctly.
4)Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral and diagonal movements are preferred.)
5) If you can choose what to bring to a gunfight, bring a long gun and a friend with a long gun.
6) In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived.
7) If you are not shooting, you should be communicating, reloading, and running.
8) Accuracy is relative: most combat shooting standards will be more dependent on "pucker factor" than the inherent accuracy of the gun.
9) Use a gun that works EVERY TIME. Don't trust an untested gun.
10)Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.
11) Always cheat = always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose.
12) Have a plan. A bad plan quickly executed is better than no plan.
13) Have a back-up plan, because the first none won't work.
14) Use cover and concealment as much as possible.
15) Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours."
16) Always tactically reload and threat scan 360 degrees.
17) Watch their hands. Hands kill. (In God we trust. Everyone else, keep your hands where I can see them).
18)Decide to be AGGRESSIVE enough, QUICKLY enough.
19) The faster you finish the fight, the less shot up you will get.
20) Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun, the caliber of which does not start with a "4."

Life in General
1) Good manners are always in good taste. Treat others the way you want them to treat you.
2) Better to be over-dressed than under-dressed.
3) Be kind and courteous to everyone you meet but have a plan to kill them.
4) One can not have too many good books, to much good wine, or too much ammo.
5) Cats are a good judge of character.
6) Learn something new every day.
7) Good grammar is a sign of a sharp mind.
8) Your word must be your bond.
9) Stay alert!
10) True friends that will stick by you no matter what are a rarity. Cherish them.
11) YOU are responsible for what happens to you.
12) You are NOT entitled to an easy life and luxuries.
13) Always do the right thing. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest.
14) Flowers say "I'm sorry," chocolate says "I love you."
15) Don't do stupid things, don't associate with stupid people, don't go to stupid places, and don't live in stupid areas.
16) Do not rely on the government for anything, especially your survival.
17) Don't be upset by people who don't like you or who speak ill of you. They are the ones who have lost your friendship.

Faith
1) God is the one in charge, but don't expect him to just do everything for you. He gave you a brain and muscles for a reason.
2) Pray daily.
3) Showing Christ's love does not mean you have to accept as "OK" every behavior of every person. It just means that you have \r\nto treat everyone with respect and compassion."
4) You will be a better witness by example than by bible thumping.
5) God doesn't care if you are Baptist, Catholic, Episcopalian, or whatever. He cares about how well you follow his directions.
6) When you talk to God, remember to listen.

Cooking
1) Don't overdo the seasonings.
2) An unwatched pot usually boils over.
3) Simple, hearty food, is the best--especially when shared by friends.
4) A day without red wine is not a complete day.
5) Fresh baked bread negates the cholesterol in butter.
6) Use fresh ingredients.
7) The most critical ingredient in a recipe you are working on is the one you ran out of last week.

Woodworking
1) Don't buy cheap cutting tools.
2) Measure 3 times, cut once.
3) You can make a board shorter, you can't make it longer.
4) A properly aligned table saw will get out of alignment at the most critical cut of the project.
5) Don't believe dimensions given in a project's plans until you have checked them.
6) A sharp pencil will always be on the other side of your work area.
7) Before beginning to screw and glue check the fit of all pieces.
