I am in the cattle business and will have you know That I resemble that remark.

Gerard,

Its a joking way of saying that I am like whatever the statement was or that it applies to me

In joking i was saying that at times I to am full of bullshit-

This is a fun thread and we are just playing, IMHO you have to be able to laugh at yourself. Otherwise you run the risk of becoming an arrogant ass. I can and do laugh at myself not just others.

American humor I guess but I hope it applies other places also

Amen Cross. I'm not sure weather this fellow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNZczIgVXjg actually figured out the essence of Sectional Emermentum or was just poking some fun; in any event his colleagues could certainly stand learning not to take themselves quite so seriously. Good point Cross!

But sectional enermentum is a very serious topic. Otherwise we wouldn't be discussing it in such depth.

I refer you to the work of Dr. J. Livingstone Smythe Sectional Enermentum as primary determinant of post-subsordian trauma. Have you all forgotten that or did none of you make it to the fourth grade? How about the combined work of Suzuki, Yamaha, and Kawasaki in An overview of post-pharyngeal bullet necrosis in laboratory testing Ring any bells? I thought not!

Since none of this applies to you, I advise all of you to all to bone up on your bull$#!t!

SOG

4th grade?? Out where I was raised ya only get 8 seconds to knock the shit out of a bull. Then he knocks the shit out of you. I will match your Suzuki,Yamaha and Kawasaki with Gay, Shoulders,and Roughstock in life in eight seconds or WTF am i doing

I have not weighed in on this very serious topic as of yet. I have been contemplating all of the intricacies involved with the complex, very dynamic issues that are inherent with sectional enermentum.

I have boiled it down to this...

Sectional Enermentum is by far the most comedically unique thread I've seen on AR....GENIOUS!!

Sure! Everybody go on and have your laughs now! But don't come crying to me when you discover that your cartridge of choice doesn't have enough sectional enermentum to knock the dew off a flea's behind!

Your school went all the way to fourth grade?

I'm jealous!

Through my advanced study of SE in the summer session (6th grade) of a well known private school for the study of bullistics and other little known torque related phenomanae I learned that increased SE is in a geometric progressional proportion to barrel twist. Attaining optimal SE with any odd number metric caliber may be achieved by increasing the twist rate, as conversely decreasing said rate on even numbered calibers will gain similar results. This theory was all the rage in 1966. Subsequently I had my 7mm rem mag rebarreled, despite much protest from the smithy to 1:3. At my first trip to the range with my newly fitted rifle I chose a test round loaded with a 175 gr. projectile hoping to achieve max SE results on a 55 gal water filled drum. At this juncture things become a little bit fuzzy; for upon squeezing off the round, the rifle went spinning uncontrollably out of my grip while at the same moment the 55 gal drum inexplicably vanished! Upon my recovery from the injuries sustained (2 fractured wrists and 2 fractured fingers on one hand) I set about trying to reconstruct exactly what had transpired. Being a bit young, (and it was during the 60s) and foolish I immediately attempted the test again, however this time I anchored the 55 gal drum firmly in place using a system of chains, welds, and a 1962 GMC 3/4 ton PU truck. Much to my chagrin,.. same results,.. although the chains & truck stayed in place. This is the first time I've ever confessed this to anyone other than in group therapy. I'm sure some of you guys must have run into similar experiences, hopefully with some measure of success in your own quests for optimizing SE. Your help and sharing your own endeavors will be appreciated.

Yes, you'd never have guessed, would you?

The fourth grade is where I got my Master of BS degree.

Oh. You had undoubtedly studied the dubious works of the three defamed scientists, Dr. Moshe Moe, Dr. Louis Larry, and Dr. Jerome Curley. That would have been the infamous Moe, Larry, and Curley tests, no doubt.

I was afraid that I never bought into their works for a very important reason. They never used the phrase "In summary" at least ten times during their presentations!
It's tragic that you had to learn the hard way about their lack of qualifications in the field of sectional enermentum.

Glenn, Right you are. Buffoons! I just wonder what happened to those barrels?

I think they used one of them to replace a busted 3/4" water line underneath their mobile home.
