I tried to take a "higher road" here, as I wasn't sure if any Ladies might be reading my post, but I am sure had I written "pissing contest",......
Francis: You know I'm reading it so had better take the "high road". Cheers, Raimey rse

Yes it did- and that interest got me into Hemingway's life and writings- his concise style came from both Lincoln Steffens' "Cabelese" and his early start with newpaper writing style.. RWTF

This issue got locked down because it naturally drifted into partisan politics. No doubt it will do so again, so why not just leave it locked down...Geo I can assure you and Fox, Geo, that I have said all I am going to say on the subject, and am out of this one. But with 2415 views in a short period before lockdown, it's hard to make the argument that political threads drive people away. That's like saying a magnet drives iron filings away. I'm just so glad that Dave locked Fox's other thread instead of deleting it. It is still there for anyone to read, and there is a lot of stuff within it that shouldn't get hidden or destroyed.
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

Hey Geo., I thought you were okay with those lawyer ribbings. It may have started bowl and then swirled south. Some Parker gun authentication threads are good stuff. It's amazing how much can be discovered about a gun, even when it has a big ole chunk of trigger guard stuck on it.

I rarely agree with much you post, but on this we can agree. It is good for folks to be able read the posts in the now locked post on Cabela's.

Craig, now that I'm retired the legal profession seems a much more noble enterprise. Probably my retirement that upgraded it...Geo

So, George, does that mean you are "Of Counsel"?? I read a lot of John Grisham and my favorite of all his novels is "Runaway Jury"--

I read a lot of John Grisham and my favorite of all his novels is "Runaway Jury"-- Yeah Fox, I'm officially retired but remain "Of Counsel" to the firm mainly for the purpose of directing clients I've accumulated over the years to someone still in the firm. I do retain my State Bar membership and license to practice just in case somebody rubs me the wrong way, or one of my kids needs help with a loan closing or something. I like Grisham too...Geo
