Howdy from Central VA

Post by Skeptic »

I live about halfway between RIchmond and Charlottesville, and within shooting distance of 3 counties and 5 different zip codes. I love living in the country and being able to shoot my .22 out in the back yard.

I thought I had joined here before when I saw the place on OCDO. Since that place seems to be down tonight (possibly it was slashdotted by being mentioned on WRVA tonight, combined with the election coverage they are getting) I figured I would take the time to register for sure this time :)

Good to have you onboard. It's always nice to talk to someone who knows what it means to be "Slashdotted" :)

I can sympathize.

I had dialup for awhile but it was so slow (less than 20K due to the lines in the area) then satellite for years. Finally got cellular mobile broadband last year and I am enjoying the net again :)

Howdy! Nice to have you here! I see your arsenal met the same unfortunate fate. My sympathies...

Absolutely. Guns and boats just don't mix I guess.

Oh well it is for the best, I learned my lesson. Guns are just so DANGEROUS. I am rethinking the danger level of inanimate objects in my house right now. I think it may be time for me to ban rubber bands and paper clips. You know together , those could take someone's eye out..

:welcome: to the forum. I've also banned paper clips. Staple guns are much more effective :hysterical:

I already checked that out. Unfortunately the wife is working that weekend so that leaves me with the boys. I might go with my older (he is 6) but for the one under 2, he is a bit of a issue to travel with, and with loud noises too

No doubt my wife planned it that way. She also works every weekend there is a gun show :bangin: :bangin: :bangin:
