You Learn Something New Every Day
« on: February 02, 2009, 05:24:42 PM »
I am SO excited by a couple of recent discoveries.

1)  From watching the TV show "Cowboys" a week or two ago I learned that there is an organization called "NCOWS"  (National Congress of Old West Shootists) a cowboy action group.

2)  From perusing the NCOWS website I learned that there is a "posse" located within an hour's drive of my home!!

I can hardly wait for spring!!
I love waking up every morning knowing that Donald Trump is President!!

Do you know about SASS, the Single Action Shooting Society?  http://www.sassnet.com/
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington.

Sass and the coverage of the organization on "Cowboys" was what originally got me interested in CAS.  However, the closest SASS club is 3-1/2 hours away.  :(

Looks like all you have to do is put on your cowboy hat and hop on your "goldwing" is it?  New avatar pic.
What a great way to spend the weekends.

It is a Goldwing.  Old one.  3 bikes ago, but I can't find pictures of the newer ones.     lol

Besides, I still have a couple of hairs that hadn't yet turned grey when that pic was taken.  ;D

That's been something of a challenege the past few years, too.  Mrs. T has referred to it as "a race between grey and gone."
