Woweeee this day just keeps kicking it! Hubby just got a call from his youngest sister, yup, breast cancer! Apparently she had just called the other brother, and the wife that was diagnosed today answered, now can you just imagine how that conversation went! Good news is it's tiny, operating next Monday, then radiation, hopefully won't need chemo.
I think I'll take the phones of the hook now

Phew, deep breath. Talked to hubbies brothers wife, she clarified, it's not bowel cancer yet, it's high grade dysplasia, so almost cancer, still a big 4 hour operation to take out the 2cm tumour, but thank God, they should get it in time.
Seriously though, how old are you? Do you get your blood checked out once a year? How's the cholesterol?
Over 40? Had a breast screen / PSA test?
How about ordering the free bowel cancer screening test? I did it last year, it's too easy.
If you have got to around 50, awesome, nows the time to start being smart.
Women: blood tests, including hormonal, Breast check, Pap smear, bowel cancer screen.
Men: full bloods including PSA, get that finger test, order the bowel cancer kit, it's easy, you just prong off a bit of poo and post it in.
Have a good look at your skin in the mirror.
Yeah I'm a nag and a downer. And I'm literally surrounded by people with cancer! And let me tell you this, its $£$%^%%$ terrifying. You may just draw the short straw, but there are things you can do to help yourself. Please, if it's too hard to do it for yourself, think of your children. Your wife, your husband.
Cancer is a family disease, it hurts you all.

Shit reporting.
Big hoo hah over a lever action shotgun with gun control advocates and reporters either having NFI what they're talking about or deliberately talking shit.
Examples
| Quote: | | The Turkish-made Adler A110 — which uses a lever action to load cartridges into the barrel — has many similarities to pump-action and semi-automatic firearms, but is classified as a shotgun. |
It's classified as a shotgun because it is, you imbecile. It fires shotgun shells FFS. The cartridge you load in contains shot and the barrell is a smooth bore, no rifling, so it is unmistakably a shotgun regardless of how the cartridges load.
It has zero resemblance to a semi automatic, a semi automatic by definition is a self loading weapon not a manual one that just requires you to keep pulling the trigger without needing to manually eject the case and load a new cartridge, like in a bolt action, lever action or pump action.
| Quote: | | Gun control advocates argue the modified A110 — which can rapid-fire five 12-gauge cartridges — should also be classified as semi-automatic. |
Except it's not a fkn semi auto, it's a lever action. Yeah, you can repeat fire quickly if you're any good, same as with a pump action, but the average mug would still need to steady the weapon and re-aim after loading each shell.
If the problem is how many shells the magazine contains, fine. Magazine size is already restricted (although not difficult to overcome if you know how) but stop misrepresenting a manually loading gun as a semi auto, phucktards.
here's the article I quoted from, saw the same shite on the news.

So much for Buddhism. Poor bugger, nearly had me in tears. Get some enjoyment in life with your new mates little fella. May the rest of your life be bananas,peanuts,swims and clean water. |
OMG, that's so disgusting,
I don't understand, if the zoo wouldn't take him, and the guy could not afford to have him, why wasn't something done a lot sooner? Imagine living in a cage less than a metre square? $£$%^%%$ barbarians
And please don't take offence, I know you live there but u less I thought I could save some animals I can't see me ever having the desire to go to an Asian country again, unless this gets sorted: from the bottom of that heartbreaking article
"Recognising the widespread issues facing the wildlife and pet trade in Asia, he finished with a note of caution: “I am afraid there are more cases to come.”
Life seems to be so cheap in some places, not just animals but people too. How did things get so £$%$ed up?

Faster to fire 6 shells from a double barrel. Also impossible to cut down into a sawn off which is by far the most popular shotgun for criminals. Gun control is getting ridiculous, but then that's what it's all about, not guns but control. They just wait a few years then creep the control even further along. |

There was once, and people were even more violent to each other than they are now. |

I've got a short barrelled (legal) double barrell. I'd back that loaded with slugs against some dick with a lever action
