Indeed.  When I called him the first time I introduced myself as his name sake.  He responded, "So, yer the guy causing me all the problems."  Turned out that all his friends were accusing him competing again and calling him a liar when he denied it.

We've become friends, though he charges me for any smith work I want.   :'(

Now, ask me how many Juan Martinez's are in San Antonio, TX...  ;D

That's like looking for a Hispanic Male in his 20s or 30s 5'7", 180 lbs, black hair, and brown eyes  in central Washington.

We can agree on one thing- he went looking for a training aid but he found a game.

We probably won't ever agree that he missed that the game is a wonderful training aid.

Darn, you ain't never right.
I don't know about "wonderful", but I will agree that
A) Any time spent pulling the trigger accurately on targets it's good training.
B) Doing it under pressure of a timer adds a useful stress factor.

I have a similar story concerning my wife and a local fella who has my name as well.  She was working at a local department store and mentioned she was marrying me to a co-worker.  A few days later, the OTHER me came into the store demanding to see the girl who was spreading the vicious rumor!  They had a chat and a laugh and my wife assures me that she made the better choice!
