Humbled....
« on: January 21, 2011, 01:52:33 AM »
Tonight I received a Lifetime Achievement Award in special presentation at OC's Golden Moose Awards. The award was presented to me by Larry Potterfield and was a TOTAL surprise. This comes after my award Tuesday of the Grits Gresham Communicator of the Year award  from NSSF and POMA at the State of the Industry Dinner, with Tom Gresham presenting me the award.

I'm back in the room now, and I feel humbled with maybe a tear or two. Been a long haul.

I wanted to post this tonight because I think of you guys as family.

Thanks for all you've done.

Shoot, thanks for putting out such great shows that personally I have picked up some great info on

Do you have any idea how many folks we had to bribe to make this work?  ;)

Thank you Michael B, for all you share and provide.

It's truly appreciated.

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

It is more than just the shows - the work you do behind the scenes as well as within the political spectrum has been recognized as well.

Good for you, MB, Congratulations on both awards. Savor them with your Sweetie over a beverage of your choice.


And then get back to work!!!!!! More videos, more commentary, more slide racking!  ;)  ;D

Michael,
I know you work hard at your passion and you work hard for us as well. You stand up and keep at it, and I think I'm safe in speaking for all of us (anyone disagrees, write me a letter) when I say that we appreciate all you do for the firearms community and for us as a group....AND as individuals.
Congratulations- you deserve it.

As others have said, my friend, you worked hard for this.  All I did was consume your product.  That said, congrats on a well-deserved accomplishment. 

You're not planning on calling it quits now, are you?
