Do you run around 'half naked' ?

[ironglowz]

   
     What ever happened?  It seems at least 4-5 times a week I am asked, "hey Gramps, loan me your pocket knife" ?  Why doesn't every man carry a pocket knife?  It seems that any man caught without a pocket knife in the 1950s or 1960s, may as well have been partially naked! ...And some women carried purse knives too! Why not today? Do you still carry one, or do you run around "half nekkid"?

      I carry one 98.6 percent of the time, but I lose them too often when I am doing garden or yard work.

  Can't think of when I don't have one in my pocket. Maybe when I'm lounging around the house with my lazy shorts on.

I carry one just about all the time, and have all my life.  We traded them in highschool and junior high home room.  To answer the question, schools have banned them as "bad" "evil" weapons that kill people.   

I wasn't allowed entry into the local court house because I had a small pen knife.  Seems these days, little makes and sense.

There?s one in my pocket almost 100% of the time. I have a drawer full, some I bought 40 years ago. It?s a natural part of my attire.

Don?t worry, they have DEI hires there to protect you. When you need help, cops are generally only 5 minutes away.

My wife was in the hospital earlier this year. They wouldn?t let me in because I had a small muti-tool on me. Absolutely stupid. There were a hundred tools in that place I could have grabbed if I?d wanted to do real damage.

     Up here, if  you are going to the Trauma Center, a place where you sit for one half hour till they get to you, real often, you have to empty your pockets.

     If you have an appointment, you can just walk right in to the waiting room, no pocket checking.
