Back in 'The Day'. . . "Hillbilly." One too many of them, so, a friend that called himself "Penny Hustler" re-named me "Tennessee Hillbilly." (I'm originally from Tenn.) DUH. That was a no-brainer.

Years later, after competing in PPC, IPSC, NRA High Power, IHMSA, NRA Hunter Pistol, Trap, Sporting Clays. . . and winning a FEW matches, friends started calling me "Gunslinger".

It stuck.

Still have a bunch of stuff in the basement workshop. Cell phones have less noise. Nobody trying to fry your stuff sittin' in traffic.

I go by the handle of "Caveman" (from my spelunking hobby). Most of the locals have taken to calling me "Caveman & the Danger Ranger" . (a ploy on my truck)

Cell phones are ok I guess, but they cost money and their too damn small. I can hardly see the numbers on them and when I try to dial, my big ol' fingers press 3 or 4 buttons at the same time. I took my daughter to the Mall a couple of weeks ago and I had to laugh, 7 out of every 10 people that walked past me had a cell phone up to their ear.

HEE HEEE i know what you mean nightowl we have the same thing here in my town malls and all 4 of my kids and wife have cell phones except me..i only carry a pager.But i can use a cell if needed only in a emergency if i decide to buy one. How ever i miss my CB radio and im getting close to having my way putting it back in my truck to enjoy old times sake..still my wife thinks its the 70s erra and i say well its fun and cheaper to run a CB and not worry going to the store and buy a phone card every time its needed...she thinks its funny and she never used one before and talk about nothing stuff..we are both having fun talking about it and maybe i should get her one for her vehicle and see if she will use the CB more often than the cell phone.. i will give her a handle and call her HOUSE BOSS he hee
