    I have never done that before but I could be up for that UU. I will need to check with the Minister of Social Affairs and get back to you.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I'm off hunting the weekend before so won't be allowed out for your trip north.

    If you want to go Rushy I can leave my blind with Uplander.

    That is mighty generous of you Barefoot. I don't know that I can get away yet.
