Quixote's Achievements

Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Ethel and Edith shared a room at the rest home. Ethel went on a one week cruise with her son and his wife and reported the events to Edith upon her return. "Oh Edith," she exclaimed, "the things I saw, the things I learned!" "Tell Me, " said Edith. "There are women on the outside who live with and sleep with other women" "No!" said Edith, "Yes," replied Ethel, "they call them lesbians". "Not only that but there are men who live with and sleep with other men!" "No," said Edith. "Yes, replied Ethel, they call them gay." "What is this world coming to?" asked Edith "That's not all," replied Ethel, "there are even men who will put their mouth on a woman's private parts!" "Oh My!" said Edith, "What are they called?" "Well," said Ethel, "When I could catch my breath I called him Darlin'!'"
  2. My wife is a Diet Pepsi FIEND. She starts and ends her day with a glass of Diet Pepsi. After being advised by her doctor to "cut back" on caffiene, she switched to Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi (essentially brown bubbly water). She quickly learned that one 12 ounce can of regular Diet Pepsi each day was just enough to keep the dreaded caffiene withdrawl headache away.

  4. Clay 1 As a USAF enlisted retiree, disrespect for the anthem ticks me off as well. I have sung the anthem at many events, award ceremonies and sporting events. I sing it as it written. I consider "changing" the national anthem to sing it in a blues/rap/soul/country etc. manner disrespectful. Sing the darn song the way it was written. I also disagree with those who insist the song is "too hard" to sing and should be replaced by "America the Beautiful."
  5. It looks like a bullet hole in glass to me, but then again I'm not exactly known for my knowledge of Zen practices...

  7. After losing my wife's 45 year old sister to a massive stroke in February, I learned to celebrate and treasure the small day to day moments in life, for they are often what give us the most solace, and fondest memories...

    Top 10

    TOP 10 REASONS WHY MOST MEN FAVOR HANDGUNS OVER WOMEN. #10 - YOU CAN TRADE AN OLD 44 FOR A NEW 22. #09 - YOU CAN KEEP ONE HANDGUN AT HOME, AND HAVE ANOTHER FOR WHEN YOU'RE ON THE ROAD. #08 - IF YOU ADMIRE A FRIEND'S HANDGUN, AND TELL HIM SO, HE WILL PROBABLY LET YOU TRY IT OUT A FEW TIMES. #07 - YOUR PRIMARY HANDGUN DOESN'T MIND IF YOU KEEP ANOTHER HANDGUN FOR A BACK UP. #06 - YOUR HANDGUN WILL STAY WITH YOU EVEN IF YOU RUN OUT OF AMMO. #05 - A HANDGUN DOESN'T TAKE UP A LOT OF CLOSET SPACE #04 - HANDGUNS FUNCTION NORMALLY EVERY DAY OF THE MONTH. #03 - A HANDGUN DOESN'T ASK, "DO THESE NEW GRIPS MAKE ME LOOK FAT?" #02 - A HANDGUN DOESN'T MIND IF YOU GO TO SLEEP AFTER YOU USE IT. AND, THE NUMBER ONE REASON A HANDGUN IS FAVORED OVER A WOMAN... (scroll down) #01 - YOU CAN BUY A SILENCER FOR A HANDGUN! __________________
  9. Nope. I rememebr Andy Devine in those roles!
  10. Yes, the BLS is loose in my kydex holster. That's why I figured I might have to find something smaller/tighter. I guess it is time I invested in a good leather IWB holster.
  11. Thank you sir. I was just concerned the fit would be loose/sloppy. I'll start checking out "commander sized" IWB holsters.
  12. I'm the proud owner of a new STI BLS9. (Range trip tomorrow!) But I'm having difficulty finding a IWB holster to fit the narrower (.765 across steel 1.06 across wood) frame. ANy suggestions?
  13. Shooting is one of the few ties I have to a father I lost when I was 13. His love of the sport has kept him in my mind, and passing on his lessons to my children have kept him "real" in their hearts.

    As far as I'm concerned, Redheads can get away with ANYTHING they like! I've always had a soft spot (maybe that's not the right adjective) for Redheads
