Retirement?

[Netpackrat]

Seems most everyone has moved on to something else. That's how internet things seem to go.

This, and apparently some were only here for the dramas; others who took one side or another in the dramas took their ball and went home when their side in the dramas got banned.

That's a shame, too, as this forum was the best for quite a while until the drama seemed to drive damn near everyone off.

Think the golden age of the gun acquisition thing has passed, too, at least for me.

Anything not already had is either too beaucoup or interfered with by the government.

It was born in drama, so....

The older I get, the more I am convinced that you just can't put people together without drama.

That is true.

That's kind of where I am.

Hey Tom,
Great to hear from you. I've wondered about that adventure of yours. Been through and stopped on the west side (Ashland) of you several times in the intervening years. In Texas now with my own list of home/rental "great ideas and incomplete projects" going on. Can hear the local range from our front porch but haven't got all my "CA felonies" relocated to Texas yet. Some have been recovered and relocated after tragic boating accidents. But there's new hope for them in small town Texas.

Hey, big D. Just checking in to see who's still around. I haven't looked in for a couple years. Congrats on taking retirement while you're still young enough to drive Mrs. M crazy.
We got our 20 acres of pine forest in southern Oregon and am working on building our 3000 square foot log home. Our initial "Log home package" burned up in a wildfire before I could get the logs stacked. So now I'm harvesting the trees on the property and running them through my sawmill to make lumber.
I don't remember if we've talked since we had breakfast at Black Bear Diner.
Anyway, now I'm telling all my lies on Northwestfirearms.com under the same "handle". Check in if you get the chance.

"God is good!"
Blessings, Tom

I count the start of the decline from late in the tenure of He Who Shall Not Be Named. He was generally domineering and really chilled conversation with his list of verboten topics that were hot buttons for him or triggers (apparently) for his wife. Things might have been a been dramatic here at times but the conversations were varied and wide ranging. That's the fun of the Wild West. But you bring civilization and "Karen" to town and our types tend to just move on to new horizons.

Given his forbidding discussion of vax and vax injuries I wonder where he stands now after the past 4 years. Wonder what he'd have to opine about RFK Jr and Trump. It's be a many 1000's of word post. That much I'm sure of.
