I remember having those as a kid. It’s interesting that something so cheap (the cap pistol) had a mechanism that advanced the roll one cap at a time each time the trigger was pressed.
Mine usually detonated the caps as the lever advanced them. Still, it worked well enough to leave me wondering what “single action” and “double action” meant IRL…
I also had very strict parents, yet we girls did have cap pistols.
In fact my big Hopalong Cassidy one was a treasured possession…
With no knowledge of real guns, I slept with it under my pillow for “protection” from about 8 to 11, when my father took it away.
…
Oddly enough, I grew up into someone who doesn’t like guns, and wouldn’t buy a toy gun for a child…
And my father, a strict disciplinarian Air Force officer, Goldwater Republican WWII veteran, who bought us cap guns, told me in the 1980’s that he hated real weapons, and had always supported gun control.
I got all but one also. I looked at it, but dismissed it. Too tired I guess.
As far as the illegal paper, if the Paper Police knock on your door, you can always burn it – it burns fast. Oh, and I usually don’t stand on it. I might try it when I need a new experience, though.
Thanks for the solution and the laughs!!
Cos, you know, it feels really similar, and there’s no threat of discovery.

I’ve noticed that cats will sleep on either.
They don’t seem to care about the legality, but my cat did prefer paper that I was currently reading or writing on, or at least needed in some immediate way.
From yesterday.
Thanks for that “Last Week Tonight” episode.
Ticketmaster may be legal, but if that’s all one can say about a company, there’s not much there.
As the New York State attorney general was mentioned several times, I went looking for an outcome.
There’s a short article at the link below.

The now sadly departed — x_Tech, posted a recipe for Sweet Bacon Cheesecake and/or Cupcake directly to the page. It sounded good when I first read it, and today’s my reason to make it, although it won’t be until Monday with a report on Tuesday. LINK
Who’s the cat here?
I like the way the bird looks away while still grabbing the cat’s tail. Can’t fool the cat!
does he do massages, too?
If the currency is anything to go by, this was shot in Taiwan.
Good eye!

Off to the lower right, is that a related sculpture?
It looks too big to be what I thought it was when I first saw it.

my little brother had them as a kid. us girls were never allowed to play with them. too unlady-like.
I also had very strict parents, yet we girls did have cap pistols.

I had cap pistols as a kid. I remember my grandmother using them to try and scare the birds out of the fig bushes we had at the time.
I got all nine! One required getting my ruler out to verify it.
Good evening, Cleopuzzlers….
Tonight’s … Well, ok, today’s… subject worries me.
I’ve always been a lover of paper.. All kinds. Writing paper, drawing paper, construction, crepe, and computer paper.
And of pens and pencils and markers… Glitter and glue..
I own more cards than I’ll ever send, especially now that I usually communicate by email, text, and comics comments.
…
Well, I just know that most of the paper in my house is not legal size.
I never even thought about it.
Who knew you could get arrested?
What to do, what to do?
….
I’ll tell you what… I don’t have a solution to that dilemma…
But I can offer you a solution to
tonight’s… Er … today’s puzzle.(So hard to remember most of you will see it Saturday morning. Still dinnertime Friday right now on the west coast.)
Anyway…
If you’ve tried hard, you can go ahead and check your solution against mine…
…
In trade, if you know of a solution to the problem of illegal paper, let me know, please.
Meanwhile I’ll let it hide out in the… Oh… never mind.
I can’t tell you, cos I don’t know where you stand on illegal paper.
(Um… no, not at the illegal paper stand.)
Not happy with myself. Missed an obvious one, and thought there was a difference where there wasn’t one.
I got all but one also. I looked at it, but dismissed it. Too tired I guess.

Would you stand on legal paper?
Cos, you know, it feels really similar, and there’s no threat of discovery.

That’s a cat for you. They always want to be involved in what you are doing, even if it is sleeping on it.
Mine too.
Time for Nighthawks to change the title again.
and I found nine others, so I thought “nah.”
…
I got the puzzle a bit later than usual this week, on a busy day, so I was kind of hurrying…
but I really should have taken time to measure.
Oh, say… Nighthawks… ♪ … a word?
Don’t worry – the possession isn’t illegal. Not even giving it to anyone as long as you don’t sell it.
But … but what if I sell something printed on it?
Like a greeting card…
am I safe as long as they don’t recover the paper for another use?
A legal disclaimer should fix that…
“The paper is free, anything additional isn’t.”
Like
I missed an obvious one.
i still only got 8. the 2 i missed were real easy! do i get credit for the difficultness?
How can you get difficultness credit if they were “real easy?”
Now, if you’d said they were terribly hard… microscopicly tiny, unfairly hidden… Then yeah, maybe.
Maybe you could score it like figure skating? More points for the hard maneuvers than the “easy” ones?
so, are we looking for nine or ten?
Well, Mr. Sherman found a tenth, and Nighthawks changed the puzzle to say “Ten”
So I’d say ten.
…
That last one IS hard to see, so IMHO, if you don’t find it, but you find the other nine, you’re doing as well as originally expected.
If you DO find that one, you still need to have found all nine of the others.
And of course, you won’t know which one I mean till you’ve done your best…..
then compared with my solution, then read Mr. Sherman’s spoiler comment…
So you may as well try hard to find ten.
well, I found nine including Mr. Sherman’s first one, but missed a rather obvious one, oh well, this was a tough one!
I finally got nine (including the late entry) but #10 eluded me…

Okay! Letting me read all this twenty minutes before suppertime is cruel and unusual punishment…!
