Yep, Skeet got it right as usual. So, you guys in for shooting next Sunday? I have been fighting some cold this entire week and trying to get work done, but I am still going to make it out if you guys are going to be able to make it. If I still have this thing on Monday, I am going to the doctor and getting some prescriptions. Heck, I should just take the wife with me to the doctor's office since she is a pharmacist and should know exactly what I need.
