Hi lads
Hope you all had a grand Christmas, n I hope we all have a good 2012
I just wanted to post something along the lines of how we're all lucky to not be in the Silent Guns section, n how we all dearly love out hobby of shooting or collecting these masterpieces of an age passed by
Lets try to all be nice is all I mean
It was rather ugly there for a while, though better lately.
I have said a few not so nice things to RWTF & ol'Ed, & I would like to apologize for them in the spirit of a new & friendly 2012 here at this lovely place where we can come chat to people with the same interests.
I had a dumb row with Le Fusil/Dustin a while ago, but after an Email or two we got it sorted & I would say we would be friends now, if we met ...I was real happy about that, so thanks Dusty for being a gent!
I think so much of so many of you guys...lets keep it cosy this year, eh?
And thanks to Dave Weber for letting us visit
Bless the lot of ya
Franc

I'd like to be the 1st to 2nd Franc Otte's post. Life is entirely too short to be anything but kind and gentle. I believe that everyone here has something to offer: A story to tell, a bit of knowledge about a particulary obscure subject or perhaps just a compliment to share. There is enough animosity and ill will in our world today. Let this forum be an island of good will and respect. Kudos to Dave Weber for putting up with us.
Best Regards and a Happy 2012.......George

Well ok, but let's not get too sappy about it. The physical threats and so forth have to go, but a little difference of opinion is good for all; thats how we learn....Geo

Well said, George. IMO=-every Vet who posts on this here Dave Weber web-site thingy, owes you big-time for sharing the story about the twice decorated Purple Heart soldier- who tried to pawn his two medals recently at a pawn shop in Holland, MI--
As far as Franc (Frank?) Ott and his comments- No Big Deal. I get ridden hard and put up wet by the major league %$#-holes on the Professional Golfers Caddying Assn.-- but I still have my set of Haig Ultras and a 3 handicap-- I rather like reading all the negatives that get posted here (and on other sites), because it keeps me sharp and alert-too easy to get in a groove and only BS with those few that might agree with you- what's the fun in that-- and also, I buy 100% 24/7/365 the words of wisdom from Vito Andolini-- "Kepp your friends close, and your enemies even closer"!Salud!!!

Geo' n RWTF,Of course , nothing wrong with a bit of colourful argumentative discourse ,but not to long ago a few folks were talking about leaving due to alot of crap on here.I didn't visit much for a while myself. I'm just hoping we can all be civil thats all,as most have been. I meant it in a positive ,well meaning way . But we don't need Sappy...now I will be right back with Hot Chocolate n cookies for all the gang, lol My NY resolutions never seem to last very long anyhow, you mean bunch of !#@@&%'ers you, haha cheers Franc
