Howdy, I'm new around here. Just learned about this place tonight.
I'm 46 years old, live in Texas these days. I've got two sons in the USAF. I ride a Harley and drive a Toyota 4x4 pickup. When it comes to guns I'm a faithful follower of Elmer Keith. I don't hunt much any more, just the annual deer hunt and a little hog hunting since I moved to Texas.
Some of the organizations that I belong to: NRA Life Member, TSRA (Texas State Rifle Association), AMA (Am. Motorcycle Assoc), VHA (Varmint Hunters Assoc) and the Texas CoC (Confederation of motorcycle Clubs)

Welcome to the fire, grab a stick and stir gently.

Welcome to the fire. You missed a couple of interesting Elmer Keith discussions by a few weeks. There is a search function if you care to look for them. Prepare to be addicted!

Lookit you--you're just a baby at 46, and you've already learned to do italics!
You'll fit in around here just fine, even if you are an NRA member.

Azle Texas, just NW of Fort Worth. My job (Aerospace QA) moved me here a little over a year ago. Before that I was in northern Utah, and after the long hot summer we had I'm looking for a way to go back!

Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

Before that I was in northern Utah, and after the long hot summer we had I'm looking for a way to go back! Welcome to Texas and welcome to the fire. Don't worry much about the hot weather; you'll get used to it and no matter what anyone tells you. This summer was hotter and dryer than most. One thing though; there is an unwritten law that if you live in Texas you have to have a deer lease that cost way to much. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> DT

Welcome! Sometimes Rick forgets to notify new members, but your initial dues are to send a six pack of beer to everybody that responds to this thread. I like Corona! Its a one time dues payment that lasts a lifetime. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
