Alaska started the whole MOB thing. Thanks alot, guys.

Now that explains a lot looking over at your avatar.

LOL! Better than comparing her to the chick from the recent "V" series. OMG I was watching Alla take off her make-up VERY closely for a few weeks. Seems I am OK, though.

I have been to Alaska. It is similar to Vermont, but I think it is bigger. And there is even less woodchuck women as a percentage of the population. OMG Shawn, I bet you just love Russia! But no doubt a similar percentage get miscounted as bears by the DNR in aerial surveys in Alaska.

Been married a year and already off the market too long apparently I never went to bars or clubs much anyway though. Old, bald women could be running amuck all over the clubs here and I wouldn't have ever known it.

What are "woodchuck" women?

What are "woodchuck" women?

Exactly what it sounds like. Woodchuck means сурок. I never heard the term before coming to this forum but it makes perfect sense to me. It's a trifecta of ugly, stinky, and overweight. Remember that woodchucks are dirty, round around the middle, stink, and have sticky out teeth.

Meh, I don't go to bars.

Probably just as well. Who knows, maybe the bars cause you to turn into a woodchuck, or wombat, or something.

What are "woodchuck" women?

Native women of Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. They live in the forest (woods) and are good for carrying buckets of water, chopping firewood, boggin' for cranberries, and Maple "sugaring". They wear steel toed boots, wool pants, red plaid shirts, drive muddy pick-up trucks and say things like "a-yup" and "Nope, Can't get there from here...gotta go through Cambridge first" They have an accent like Katherine Hepburn, or a French accent, kinda like the cartoon "Frenchie" lumberjacks. Virtually indistinguishable from the male counterpart... "woodchuck men" It could probably be applied to women from the Adirondack region of New York, but they are from New York and we rarely refer to them at all if avoidable. New York woemn are a whole 'nother breed and we are none to happy about them puttin' in that ferry boat and allowing them to just cross the natural barrier of Lake Champlain (Vermont's "moat") like they were landing at Normandy or something.

They are rough, tough and stout and can wrestle with bears. They are named after one of our common local animals, the woodchuck, already described by SMR. In general we just call them "woodchucks" Alla came to call them the "woodchuck women" which is like an Alla-ism, along wth "lub" (her word for "pound")

I don't even drink...at all. So bars weren't my place either. But I did have that experience of going to a club one night that had some stand-up comediennes and was pleased to discover that it was like 100% women there (this was before I met Alla, Brad! In my unenlightened about Ukraine days) and then come to find out it was the monthly "First Friday" (probably some menstrual reference) gathering of lesbians. Once again my hopes of making it with a woodchuck (woman, not the animal) were dashed on the rocks!

Alla says women here are either "lesbians or those woodchuck women" Many are both.

Can you guys carry in restaurants/bars in NH?

We're currently unable to anywhere alcohol is served although legislation has been introduced to change that.

I'm getting to the point where I'd rather stay armed (and the sobriety that comes with it) than kick back and enjoy a beer at a bar. When it's all said and done, I just feel better that way. - And it's cheaper!

Not sure in NH. We can in Vermont. There is no restriction whatsoever, except federal laws, in Vermont. Here we can carry anywhere except schools and federal buildings. There are NO "no firearms allowed" signs anywhere except thos places.

Kentucky (I used to live there and had a CCW license for many years) at first did not allow you to carry where they serve alcohol but then changed it to allow it if the place also served food. It it was a "pure" alcohol only place, you still couldn't, but what bar doesn't serve food?

You mean you don't have an armed posse that travels with you while you get your drink on? Not how I pictured you Slim...

I think we have the same law in Kentucky about firearms in places that serve drinks. Seems almost un-Amuricun to me. I guess police get nervous about regular folks having a few too many and taking their problem outside (or not) with guns. Of course, drunk cops can do that any time.

Kinda sorta Brad. In 1996 they did, but it changed in 1998 to include places that primarily ONLY serve alcohol. If they also serve food, you can take your gun there.

Kentucky and Indiana are the only states I know of that recognize ALL states concealed carry licenses...including recognizing my Vermont driver's license as a valid concealed carry license!

[slim 1,533]

Not sure in NH. We can in Vermont.

Sorry for the mixup. Late posting. I get kind of lysdexic late at night.

I'm usually the armed posse.

I travel to both Indiana and Kentucky quite a bit. It's weird, but when I cross that river or see that big Hoosier sign, I feel just a little more sovereign.

I was working in Vincennes Indiana once, legally armed with my KY CCW and took a wrong turn heading back from lunch and went across a little bridge...into Illinois! It was like a cold war nightmare having suddenly found myself behind enemy lines. The mere act of driving across the bridge had converted me from "law abiding citizen" to "dangerous armed felon"

I quickly turned around and headed back to FREEDOM before the gestapo/KGB in Illinois saw me. Think about that in case you want to ponder the ridiculousness of fireamrs laws.
