Oldman, I think Gene,you and me would make a good team, but we should hire Miles, to be our coach and spy,he's a smart and sneaky ole boy, and he could shoot a few shots to cover our little slip ups. Miles can shoot I know that for sure. rio7

It'l be great to see you again, Alan! I hope you've been doing well. This talking once a year business is for the birds.  You're welcome to come out before hand if you'd like. I suspect we'll have a couple of others slip in a day or two early, so I don't know how much there will be to do. I just wrapped up a "Firearms For Actors" class here and had a ball. Took two actresses, neither one "country girls" and had them shooting everything from AR15, .22lr revolvers, .38 & .357 revolvers, 1911's, 20 ga SxS shotguns, autoloading shotguns, and my Shiloh Sharps, to traditional archery. One young lady (originally from Madison, WI) had never touched a firearm OR a bow before yesterday. That girl can SHOOT! You should have seen the grins she gave us when she was shooting. The other young lady LOVED the .357 revolver and the AR15. I had to wrestle the AR15 away from her. I think her grin will wear off in, oh, a month or so. She's headed home to tell her husband that he will be buying her a Model 60 and an M4. She is about 5'3", 115lb and had a blast (pun intended) shooting the Sharps. I hope we have as much fun at the Gathering as we have had here for the last two days. Ed

Gene and Blue... What do yall think would be a suitable offering to Miles, for his super secret services? Not that we would need it, but if he was to be the 'official firearm inspector', it could be advantageous (to make sure the other team was following the rules).  I personally know a lady that cooks pecan pies, and could probably get her to cook one... or two... for the winning team.

I've seen Ed's Facebook posts on the classes, and think that's terrific stuff  Wonder if you could work some journalists and writers into the same classes?

...Wonder if you could work some journalists and writers into the same classes? I'm sneaking up on them, Patrick. They follow actors and musicians constantly. One day, they will get curious enough to inquire and then, I'll have them. Ed

Before she bought her place Up on the lake, Sandra Bullock would hang out at his place so as not to be found! Lucky guy!

Well dang it, looks like east Texas isn't in the cards this year as much as I'd like to be there.
Y'all have a Texas time!

I hope we can get together sometime soon.

Before she bought her place Up on the lake, Sandra Bullock would hang out at his place so as not to be found! Lucky guy! Lucky indeed! I dated a girl in college who looked quite a bit like her. Saw her in a movie 20 years ago, and found myself digging up her bio, wondering if she was my old girlfriend. "Nope" was the answer.
