Yeah, a lot of gun shops did a month's worth of business in the 10 days after the election. They're happy now but they're worried about what may happen after Jan 09

The two local shops that I was in on November 3rd and 4th, you'd swear theat they were giving the stuff away. Grown men with enough facial hair to make both Santa Claus and a Hells Angel biker dude intimidated, hurriedly rushing through the aisles like biddies at a Macy's housewares sale!

We have one of our three annual gun shows this weekend in Salt Lake City. The November show is usually very busy, but I bet this one is gonna be a doozie.

I may even carry a few guns around and see if I can sell a few I haven't used in years...

the computer problem

is know as the Ed Rendell Syndrome, named after the jerk some people in Pa voted for as govenor, the man screwed up phliadelphia now he is doing a good job on the rest of the state, just take a look at our highways and roads pathetic,he stopped funding of the rebuilding of the dam across Bradys Lake in monroe county back in 2006 , since then it got straightened out, the game commission got involved now the dam is finished and the lake is up to capicity, but this guy is anti outdoor sportsman all the way, only cares about his damn tv sports talk show and the lousy Eagle football team, and how he can get his hands on the revenue from the slot machines from the casinos that have opened up across the states , he states my city and several others near mohegan sun have earned x amt of revenue yo EDDIE where in the hell is it , instead i get a tax increase
