What?!? I love semi-automatics. I haven't had one in a while, but not because I don't like them.

I had a Colt Woodsman Match Target, and like the dumba$$ I am, I traded it away. Then I sold a Ruger single action .22 to my brother, and all I have left is a Colt Diamondback .22 revolver. That Colt is also becoming expensive and I want to keep it nice so I don't plink with it. This little Ruger auto will just be for fun plinking.

I haven't bought a handgun in so long that this was my first Handgun Safety Certificate. Now I can buy 1 a month for the next 5 years

What's that? Do you have to pay a fee in order to buy a new handgun? Fingerprints, DNA...what all is involved?

You have to have an HSC to buy a handgun. You get the certificate by taking a test that the dealer will sell you. The test is based on the study guide that I linked below. The fee is $25 ($15 + $10) and the card is good for 5 years.

Just got back from the stupidest thing I've ever gone to.
A golf club meeting...
But hey, it had free food, so it wasn't all bad.

Good Evening Southern Cal. Thought I would stop by & say hello. I traveled into your area last weekend. The wife & I traveled to Julian. It was a beautiful drive. Next we want to travel into San Diego. I found city maps for there. Thought we would check out a City neither of us have ever been. I did touch down in a plane once in San Diego but never got off. I hear San Diego is a beautiful City with kind of a small town feel.

It depends what part of San Diego.
There are some very rough areas down there, so be careful.
But then there are also some very nice parts there.
Make sure you go to downtown SD, I love going down there and,
just looking at all the shops and going to the Ghirardelli Ice Cream and Chocolate Shop over on 5th Avenue.

I remember walking downtown San Diego in the early 70's, wino's everywhere. It's improved a lot since then!

I'll take your word for it. It's stopped now anyway, so things are looking up.

For those of you who care about such things, there's a new fastest Power Stroke as of last night. Rudy's Diesel Performance's 6.4 went 9.75 at almost 138mph.

YouTube - 9.75 @ 137 - 4/23/11

Damp and cold over here. Guess I get out of mowing today.

Happy Easter, and be good to your bunny.

That's how Red Green makes egg salad.

Speaking of Red, Wayne Robson, the guy who played Mike Hammer the convict died last week.

Wayne Robson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I guess it was a couple of weeks ago, but I only learned of it last week.
