Arguing With a Friend . .
Have you ever noticed?
#1 - It's almost impossible to have a good argument without getting to like the person you are arguing with.
#2 - It is MUCH more fulfilling to argue with someone you respect, than someone you don't. Even if you "loose".
. . or am I just nuts?
(ok, in the interest of saving bandwidth and storage space, please disregard that last question.)

Can't argue with that.
I find it real boring to have a down and out argument with anyone who can't handle both sides of the 'discussion'. If we're talking about a .22-250 or a .220 Swift, it just becomes a matter of different learned opinions unless both parties have experience with both pieces, barrel lengths, loads and bullets, but differ on favorites. Same with politics. I have friends who are in politics on both sides of the fence and we know enough about each party that we can back each other into corners regardless of which party we're discussing. Respect is a learning process.

What is fun, is arguing with your GF/Wife/Significant Other. The arguing ain't so hot, but man, the making up is a blast!

leaving them like this --->
back to question 1 from fuzzy: yes, i'm like that with girls for some reason. maybe it has to do with the quote from sam i just quoted
i have a few friends that i cant seem to straighten out though...i wish to 'shed some light' on some of their stupidity but i think i might be too bold with the truth because i get bad vibes when those 'issues' come up.
