I'm getting old...really old...

[Beemerguy53]

When I was a kid I remember really being impressed with old farts who talked down to me to make me feel stupid. Just kiddin'.

I'm sure the kids today could name a lot of movies, actors, and attractive women that the old farts don't know and make them feel out of the loop too, so I suppose it works both ways.

When I'm in the supermarket, and see the celebrities on the covers of those magazines and tabloids at the checkout, for the most part I wonder just who these people are? Same thing when I watch SNL (which isn't often)...the hosts and the musical guests might as well be Martians.

At about age 4 I picked up my mothers Colt, pointed it at her and said "I am going to hoot you mother". I could not say the letter s at that time. I only heard about the time I almost shot my mother fromthen until I moved out of the house at age 19! When I was 16 sneaking into the house one early morning she took a shot at me thinking I was some criminal. That one was my fault also!

I still have the pistol and original box of ammo minus one round. May shoot it one of these days.

Can't say I know too many people who have pointed a loaded gun at their mom AND been shot at by her.

Yes, the same 1903 Colt, probably the same round in the chamber, about 11 years between events. I also had to fill in the bullet hole in the plaster wall and paint the hall to match the patch job way as punishment! Some skills we learn as kids come in valuable later on in life.

I love the Colt Pocket Hammerless! I have one in each caliber and carry one or the other fairly often.

They are also great for keeping the kids in line.

When I go into a restaurant and have to wait to be called (over the intercom) I say my name is Donner

then I usually hear ...(Donner Party of 2)

Hopefully one of your friends or relatives is not on the menu.
