    Mrs njretcop has convinced her doctors and her employer to allow her to return to work on Monday on a limited basis. She is to come home when she gets tired or feels weak.

    It is probably going to be good for her to get her mind back on work and off cancer and doctors and hospitals. We would both like to thank ALL of the people on GunBroker for your thoughts and prayers.

    I am trying to read up on what has been happening since I was gone, but I see that I am really behind on things.

    Hi. A professor gig newly involving administration leaves little time. That promotion comes with some extra hours. So I've been gone from the board for about a week. Any big new issues?
    Closest I've been to a firearm is my office picture of me pointing a Mustang off a bridge (illegal but only a pose).

    Any news about that bill trying to add the Mini-14 to banned "assault weapons"? Saw an edition of "West Wing" the other night, in which a Black Congressman from a tough district opposed the Demo Administration's gun ban bill. "Good," said I. Then the solon explained that he opposed the "insanity" clause, because anybody who even wanted one of those guns was crazy. "@#$$$%' @^&*(%^!" I said.
    I like Martin Sheen's acting, but his real-life 2nd Amendment views stink as badly as his character's, the President. And in the show, their bill passed, after they reduced their demands to certain grip lengths, etc. "Well," said the Vice President, "these things take time." That's real-life strategy we heard. We may be talking generations, although I hear many of you saying a total ban could be here sooner. I like to believe it will never happen, that someome will preserve our cause and carry it forward.

    hellow all.After a year or so hiaidis I'm back with my trade mark miss spelling and empty the clip or give me the gun attitude you've missd so verry much.So to thoes who know me give me a holler and tell me what you've been up to and to thoes I'm meeting for the first time tell me about yourself and I look foward to getting to know you.

    prehaps I should tell a little about myself so you'all know who it is your talking to . I'm a 30 year old man ,I am happily married with 1 son .I work at home mostly as a technition.Iam a live and let live kinda guy mostly exept when others try to tell me how to live. My idea of gun control is you control yours and I'll control mine .If you don't want one then don't tell me how to control mine.
    I was born and raised in south Georiga and moved to Missouri about three years ago .I hunt and fish ,raise my son and try to live life.that's about it .I look foward to talking with all ya'll .

    So much to cover over my 2 week vacation, where to begin?

    Well let's start with what could have been. Week before last I had 2000 rounds of 1981 USGI .45 ammo for sale @ .60 cents a round. And last week I had 1,680 rounds of 1972 Viet Nam 5.56 in stripper and bandoliers, and it too sold it for .60 cents a round.

    This weeks military find is yet another odd ball item, you experts will have to let me know how to price this thing. Here it is:

    While we are talking auctions, here is a slightly used Walther P22 for sale: http://www.GunBroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=343933888

    And for Bamafan and Bama55, one last chance at a can of the 30-06 spam cans I offered a few months back. I had a buyer to run into money issues and has asked me to sell this for him. http://www.GunBroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=344236281

    Let's see what else took place. Here are a few pics of me at the machine gun shoot.

    Me and the suppressed Armalite .50 cal

    Physical therapy is a pain, but necessary.

    Hope it works out for you, as well as it has, for others I know.

    i am going to need a lot of luck.i never had no problems at the hospital with therapy, but since i have come home everything i have tried to do has got harder to do.that little gal in therapy today brought tears to my eyes. and i dont mean tears of joy. the pain got so bad she had to quit manual therapy and wire me to some machine that sent electric pulses through my leg.i guess i am progresing my knee bend today was 97 degrees as to 95 yesterday with a goal of 115 to 120
