Off to shoot a round or so tomorrow.
I suddenly came down with anal glycoma (sp?) today.
What's that you say?
I can't see my A$$ going to work tomorrow. 
Gonna hook up with a friend from Fla that's up and spend the better part of the day in Pa spreading lead around and hopefully breaking more birds than we don't.
Now, what gun to take. Citori, Merkel 1 or 2, Fox, forgive me but maybe a 12ga. NOT.
OK, Merkel #2 tomorrow. Sporting Clays deserve a true field gun.  |

Nope. They said they were going to finish it up last week and get it back to me. Haven't seen it yet.
That's OK, I've got the blue steel one I bought when that one went out.
I'm actually shooting this other one quite well. |

Well we shot this AM. Only 3 people ahead of us on the course. Beautiful day to shoot. Temps in the low 60's, not a cloud in the sky.
Shot the Merkel 1620 today. Didn't do bad but missed some targets that I know I should have hit. 
All in all though wasn't bad. We shot the A course all the way through and I ended up with a 73. |

| Damm, Tjc, to have a public service job, so you can leave anytime you want. Great to see your still(sometimes) at work and out playing. Specially since you could have retired what 8-10 years ago when you became eligble for SS....And don't get on to many of those hilly course, without the golf cart(like last time) wouldn't want you to have a major heart attack, this time. |

Hey Huns aka thudddddddy, in a very old saying, SIT ON IT AND ROTATE.
Going out again tomorrow to shoot some clays. Gotta burn up some of this 40+ cases of 16ga ammo. HEE HEE HEEE HEEE HEEE
Hunsy my dear friend, it was only 2 years ago that I was eligible for max pension. No need to go anywhere with 11 weeks Vac, supplied car, come and go as I please (but I must put my 40 per week in), don't answer to anyone really etc etc etc.
I'll stick around for another 2 or so and then most likely you'll find me in Maine.
If you're nice, yea right, I'll let you and that swamp mutt come stay and we'll hunt grouse and woodcock. |

PGG, as long as you don't have another Swamp Mutt to bring.
In fact, we may ban all wondering, so called flushing dogs. Only high quality finely tuned German pointing dogs.  |

Flushing dogs ??? The key word is "flushing" here. But seriously, don't blame the dog here... |
