Mighty Quiet Around Here

Wow. Nobody has written anything since yesterday afternoon. Trust everyone to be alive and well? As the Terminator said, and General Eisenhower promised the Philippines, "I'll be back".

If I remember that was when he left Corregidor?
You have great day and shoot straight and may the Good Lord smile on you.

It has been quiet.

Nobody even wants to talk about shooting pins, everyone must be busy with work/kids/hobbies, I guess.

My kids are gown, and live a long ways away, I'm retired from $$producing work. I do however have hobbies (they mostly go BANG). I also have an old house that I bought for retirement which keeps me busy too.
However, I've found that it really doesn't take much to keep me busy anymore! I think that's right, can't remember much either.
I do browse the site often, but just as often I can't really contribute much either. Good days to you all.

Sometimes the forum has its ebbs and flows. Usually the folks here are looking for specific information and are not necessarily very chatty. Works for me either way, the forum is here for everyone to enjoy - no matter how frequently they choose to do so.

I wouldn't like going somewhere I had to bring my own air....... :shock:

SCUBA is better than being an astronaut. though. Those folks have a l-o-n-g trip to the surface..........much braver than me.

I wouldn't dive in Kill-boa - every time I'm at vertical reality they're talking about another body recovery from the water

Well, Its waaaay better visibility than I normally get... 30-50 feet of crystal clear water vs. 0' of black murky coldness. and the fishing folks out part goes with people not following basic safety procedures. Kinda like most firearms accidents.... :?

Thats ok. you can ride your murdercycle and I'll swim under water. if there was no danger involved in our fun activities, we would have very boring lives.....
