I predict this thread will be just a "flash in the pan."

That was point blank.

 

[cosermann]

Seems like we're taking a "shotgun approach" to this.

One of my favorites, "hotter than a two dollar pistol."

 

[XMil]

That was point blank.

Well, I'm having a blast here.

 

[cosermann]

I think I'm going to "bite the bullet," and give my daugter a "shotgun wedding."
(She ain't gettin' any younger you know. A little long in the tooth.)

Hope I didn't "shoot myself in the foot" with that one.

 

[TopDog]

This has been on mind since it started so a few more popped up.

Sliver Bullet - cure all
Loaded for Bear - ready for something big
Don't shoot yourself in the foot - screwing something up for yourself

Well, keep your powder dry or you won't be able to get a shot off and the young lad is liable to take off like a shot.

I promise, this is my "parting shot" for this thread.

I promise, this is my "parting shot" for this thread.

That one will probably glance off *some* of the people here.

Did this thread finally run out of ammo?

You fired a shot across the bow with that question. Although, being a Site Supporter, I'm getting enough bang for my buck. The rapid fire responses have been a blast to read.

 

[SavageEagle]

Cover me. I'm going in!

Enough with these shots in the dark. I'm cocked, locked, and ready to rock.

 

[brainslushy]

"pull the trigger" - if I'm made up my mind to do something

 

[seamusalaska]

Well, you sure don't want a "ricochet romance".

But you won't if you have 'situational awareness'. WWI pilot term.

Well now, this thread has been thoroughly shot to Hell.

You hit the mark with that one.

 

[christman]

You hit the mark with that one.

BULLS-EYE!

 

[JBusch8899]

BULLS-EYE!

Too late. Post #7.

Or should I have said, "off the mark?"

Thanks for painting that target for me.

 

[JBusch8899]

I believe that I just shot my entire load with the last post.

Excuse me now, while I clean up.

 

[JBusch8899]

A final thought, though.

This thread could be considered a squib. As a short humorous or satirical writing.
