RIP. when i was a teenager, everybody i knew had at least one of their albums. Knights in White Satin helped me get through my freshman year.

i just bought a used Kimber Custom II .45 and a Springfield Ronin Operator in 9mm. also about 300 rds of ammo. this is the 1st 9mm i've ever owned and had to lay in some.

every two years or so, i go on a kick where all i want to listen to is the Allman Brothers for about a month. my favorite by them is "Hot 'Lanta".

good natured fun is fine with me, but i was told by moderation that this thread violated rules of this forum. i ain't smart enough to stay ahead of such picky rules. you're all a fine group of folks.

apperently, this thread of mine violated the delicate rules of this forum. excuse the heck out of me and i'll see you elsewhere, or not. exactly where is the "cleaning" section of this forum? nevermind, i don't care.

UncleEd: i just don't get you. you think it won't shoot after 11 rounds? or what? excuse my ignorance, please?

they stopped inviting me to the reunions. and it's just as well. if i go to one, i am going to figure out who in the crowd was the biggest bully jerk to me back then and throw a drink in their face. or some other anti-social move. my HS experience was pure waste on every level.

i must admit, it can be very plearsurable just to line them up and look at them. though my lineup is not too big right at the moment.

i thought Omar Liddel was the coolest and the baddest. i hate to hear this.

an observation that pertains to this: i have just in the past couple of months "gotten interested in guns" and from the various gun forums, i have noticed that lot's of individual gun guys have a lot of guns. apparently dozens. that is striking to me. i'm not critisizing this, hey, you have the...
