Title: I'm back
Post by: Ripsnort on June 03, 2002, 07:58:12 AM
Thanks again for Zippatuh, LBE182, Gammaray and Gunslyer for meeting up with me in KC last Wed for a beer, and thank you to Toad and Rude for giving us a tour of the CAF hangar at New Century in Kansas.  Toad, Geeman is still yakking about that day!  Thats a memory that will last a lifetime for he and I.  Thanks again!

Will post pics of our gathering as soon as I get a chance, just rolled in last night from a 3-day, 11 hours a day, drive from Missouri, and trying to catch up on roughly 250 emails here at work :(

After you survive your hangover from Aug 1st-4th (I owe you a few cocktails for your outstanding support)...the name will be branded into the few remaining braincells you have left. :D

Glad you made it back all right.

I would have liked to have made it to Gardner but didn’t have the time.  I thought Toad said it was about time for BBQ anyway. :)

We're sorry but the name "Rip" and "Snort" have been deemed to be either connoting violence, or drug usage and are no longer PC enough for the new LIBERAL O-Club, or LOC.
Please choose a new name more in line with the new LOC.

Might I suggest:

Accidentally Torn and Sniffed due to a Virus Induced Cold.






welcome back

:cool:

you're mistaken midnight

Rip-n-Snort
From a circle that is usually moving, the couple designated goes down the center of the circle and through an arch made by the opposite couple, where the active couple drops inside hands to separate and pull others around to reform the circle. The arching couple will turn under their own arms to face in and the only hand hold that is dropped is the active couples' inside hands. This can be called from a circle of four and end in lines of four. The actives will move out to ends of those lines.


looks like a dance for me ;)

Hey! You would have been proud Tahgut...we had whats called a "Redneck Holiday" last week....$200 worth of ammo, with 9mm pistols, 7mm and .30-06 hunting rifles, .22 target rifle, .22 Target pistol, and "black-silhouette" human targets (We used 3" red bulleyes on the face to protect the innocent) Finished the afternoon with shotguns and skeet, and a nice sunburn on my neck. Haven't had that much fun in a long time!

Hmmmmm. "Black" silhouette targets huh?



That does sound fun. Nothing like blowing things to bits to take the edge off. I could have used one of those targets and about $100 of the ammo on Friday during our Month-end screamfest at work.

Hehe, black is best color to observe during the day for target shooting.  Nothing more unless the manufacturers of those targets have some subliminal thoughts I suppose..

I was amazed how my hand gun accuracy was after not shooting for about 2 years.  Pro Bass Shop has a gun range, maybe I can talk Nate into bringing his piece to the con for some target shooting...better yet maybe they "rent" firearms there?

Skeet shooting I was about 50% with a modified choke 12 guage Browning...then I used an over/under 20 guage Browning and hit 9 of 10! :) I think my next bird gun will be one of these!

We've been trying to convince Nate to carry around only the guns he needs for that particular day.   Now you go and encourage him to bring spares for his buddies :mad:

Nate, if you read this, you should still only pack only one piece for con.  And keep it unloaded so we don't have a repeat of last year's "I hate people who drive Spit's" incident.

Welcome back, Rip. While you were gone Lazs got banned from the BBS for a week by Pyro. Without the two of you posting, things have been relatively tame around here. :)
