Oh absolutely. In America, you can go and get one of those at the store down the street when you’re 18, in about 15 minutes with an ID and a little cash. I’ve had several in the past. Altogether there was a time when I owned about 40 guns. I have a great big safe that I keep most of them in. A lot of them come and go as I’ll buy them, play with them, and then sell them to go and buy different ones. I’ve shot almost every gun made in the last 100 years probably. I’ve even got an old british .303 enfield from your great nation. It’s an old one. I’ve got a spanish mauser from ww2 that’s rechambered for .308 I can shoot probably 300 yards with it from a bench. It’s insane.
SIATD…can I come and hunt foxes with dogs in England with you? I’m not actually a hunter. I’ve been in the woods once when I was a kid and saw a deer, but I didn’t shoot it because I had no rifle skills at the age of like 8 or 9. BUT…I have gone out before to a place where a friend has a lot of land, and I’ve shot some pigs. You don’t actually hunt them. You just kind of go onto the area where they reside, and then they start to hunt you. The best bet is to be in a tree, so that you don’t get gored by a pig with big horns, and you can just shoot them from up high and watch the heads explode. It’s nasty. I only did it once and I didn’t take the pigs home I let some other guys have em.
You know people go into the woods and kill animals and eat them? I mean, I know it happens, but to have seen it that time was pretty freaky. I’ve been reloading my own ammo since I was a kid and someone taught me how, but almost every round I’ve ever fired has been at a piece of paper hanging downrange.
No, for all kinds of reasons, not least of which is I’m not some landed gentry sociopath who kills animals for fun.
This one, while completely unrelated was from a tv show I saw recently and I liked it. You guys might not know this, but I can play the blues guitar such that tears will form in your eyes. I’ve got my first electric guitar 20 years, 1 month, and a week or so ago. That’s beside the point. But I’ve gotta brag. It’s in my nature.

This one isn’t bad either.

Well if they’re overpopulated, you’d be doing the environment a favor. I think hunting is a little weird myself, to be honest, but where I live, if they put limits on how many deer someone can kill, by the end of the year the fucking things will be jumping around the freeways and in the streets of the cities. They breed like…deer I guess. It’s totally common for people’s cars to get smashed here by them. And they don’t hit the front of the car, the run into the side of it as you’re going down the road because they suck at depth perception and timing. You’ll just be riding along and suddenly, “SMACK!!”, your fucking window falls out in your lap and there’s blood on you. Fucking gross man.
I’d still hunt a fox in England because it’s like…some kind of cultural thing? I dunno. I’d do it. I have some friends who go to Zimbabwe and shoot zebras and lions and cheetahs and shit. They’ve got heads all over their house just hanging on the walls. They actually hunt like mad. Fuckers bought all this land, then fenced it in, then had elk and moose and shit shipped in to breed on the land there, and then they go out and hunt and kill them. It’s fucking insane.
When I was a kid I’d shoot the hummingbirds that came to my mom’s hummingbird feeder with my little bb gun. And for a long time, I didn’t get that it was fucked up to kill those birds, I just didn’t understand why she wasn’t proud of me for being able to hit those tiny bastards. Now I put birdseed all over my yard so that I can get high in the spring and go watch them all munch and do bird things all peacefully and stuff.
It’s gonna be a great one.
In her blood? Are you a famous actor?
Not at all I am not an actor. My daughter tried her hand at it. I am just a regular guy.
Procrastinating for a bit whilst supping upon my home-made vin rouge… before showering after cardio, and then off to post all the eBay items I’ve sold… all 20 of them 
Smears, you crack me up 
If ever you’re around London way I’d be happy to show you the nightlife scene and daytime fun… but anything immoral is down to you to sort… 
Work-out before bed… gotta be up at the crack of dawn for filming for the next three days… I’m really not an early-morning person 
Put myself on the guest-list for parties this weekend, so I can play hard after the week is over 
Drove 12 hours overnight. In Orlando now. Finishing some stuff up here tonight, and thinking of doing a Disney thing tomorrow. Never been, probably won’t go. This town is loaded to the brim with young, fit Hispanic women. I’m going tonight to a bar managed by a friend where I will probably black out. I’ve slept 3 hours, not consecutive in the last 24 without stimulants. I’m talking slow and loosing focus and going out drinking in 1 hour.
Disposed of the weapon before leaving town. I had it less than 24 hours and I got an hour or twos worth of crap table money out of it. Not bad. Wish me luck. If I win, I keep traveling.
That’s some adventure Smears…
Day 1. I’m not even halfway to Miami yet I’ve got two more cities before, then a cruise then Miami then another cruise then another Florida tour of cities or what have you and I guess I’ve gotta be home to chop down trees in November or I’ll be all messed up so the end is already in sight its very depressing really…drinks…yes…drinks
Smears, try to reduce every sight existentially, then the trip will never really end.
Where is xeno when I need him?
OK so now I’m in St Augustine. Beautiful place. I slept some more. Good times.
I am scanning eBay for watches so I can know whether the duty free is a good deal. Anyone know any online sources for duty free comparison shopping, particularly for watches?2
My bro bought a Breitling duty-free and he saved loads of dough, so DF is better value… I think he googled the watch he wanted and cross-compared across many sites to check… I do the same, and it always works 
Oh, and fuck you about not replying back about meeting up if ever you are down London way 
Slept about 10 hours in the last three days, got a day’s rest today, and then a 5am alarm to get to set for 6.30am for the new Keira Knightley film tomorrow in EC…somewhere, so chilling with my wine and a steak dinner for now
I’m plotting a Europe trip for the spring. I’m coming to crash your party!
Also, I was once in the audience of the David Letterman show and kiera knightley was the guest. Or was it Kate beckinsale? Magsj you know most of my friends here do production. Commercials etc… a fun crowd without a doubt.
The watch I want is 1400 at Macy’s, 1000 on eBay. Duty free is gonna have to beat 800 or I’m just gonna wait out how long it takes to snipe one for cheap. I had the original tag f1 in the 90s. They discontinued it, came back out with it and now its got a chronograph. Whawhawhattttt? How can I not have one?
