*swoon* Colt woodsman set the standard for semi auto .22 pistols. I "had" one once, too.....The old High Standard was good. until they all got eclipsed by the Ruger "standard" and then "MKII".........functional, accurate and cheap.
and yup, we're on the same page........nothin happens if you don't hit the target (horseshoes and hand grenades excepted)

Hehe, I enjoyed that.

Hey! Simon 's gotta deal with the consequences of his actions. If he has a BBadger nametag, he is going to get hugged. Period.

Mmmm, nice gun, I'd love to try it. I have MyLarry's shotgun at hand usually, big ass pump 12 gauge. Hunting shotgun, really too long for me, comes up to my chin. I can kill the hell out of milk jugs... I blasted, the jug flew into the air and I keep it off the ground until I ran out of ammo. I can't hit shit with a handgun though. So if you break in my house, and I yell Catch! and you're suddenly holding a milk jug, so long sucka.

Guess I'm feeling genki because I went to the gym. The pool was closed, but they have new recumbent bikes I can use, even in street clothes. My back and knee aren't too happy, but then, they never really are.

Piney, we'll be coming in on the weekend of January 26 (not MLK Weekend like the last couple of years). Anybody want to join a whole bunch of burners from Sacramento-Auburn on the snow train to Reno (all you can drink, catered lunch, room at the Sands [where else?]) PM me and I'll shoot you off the info. And this year I won't disappear. I promise.

You can either "upload" an attachment. The link to that would be right below your Submit button. You can pick a file and add a comment.
Or, you could upload the picture in photobucket (or one such website) and just "Img" the link. If it's some random picture off the internet, just "Img" the link.

If you're on Windows, grab Irfanview to resize/crop your images and/or convert them into proper formats. If you're on a Mac, well, I can't help with that.

That's also a facebook image- the settings on the picture have to be set to "public" on facebook, flickr, and some other sites. I just checked by following the link & whoever uploaded it didn't set them that way.

If you've got a free tumblr account, you can upload pics there for hosting and link to them on any site without people who view the page needing to sign in or sign up to anything, or worrying about hitting some kind of cap for views.

I thought the shuttles weren't going up any more? Or is that just to the space station? And do I actually care?

It's strapped to the back of a 747, as they normally transport it. My sister's chasing it, I may see it fly over during my lunch break here at the salt mine.

You know... I copy paste links to Facebook images all the time, and I never check the image privacy settings. I wonder how many times I linked a broken image to other people, while smiling and nodding at the image displaying on my end.
