B&A Stowaway here! I turn wrenches on Uncle Sam’s fleet of KC135R(BAFT). BAFT stand for Big A** Flame Thrower; some of my more practical and earthy friends (i.e., rednecks like myself) have mentioned that if someone needs a show of force, hook a spark plug up to the end of the drogue and touch it [...]

The Night I Brought Old Dead Jimmy Down – by Chris Morton

Chris Morton, a.k.a. Christopherson Salt Chuthers, has been writing for The Axe now for almost two years.  He recently released his first book called You Kids Quit Pooping on the Lawn.  He’s an epic writer and a good friend of mine.  I read this story and was not disappointed.  Nothing…..nothing says freaky like a Pentecostal church [...]

Call da po-po, Ma…..they got chickens!

The idea of covenant controlled communities drives me nuts. I didn’t grow up that way and upon moving to Colorado, I got a full dose of it. If you want to be a commie, move to frickin’ North Korea. If you own the land and don’t have a yard full of rabid roosters, you aren’t [...]
