To go where no man has gone before I recently talked to Mike. He stated that he is directing his energy to career goals at the present time. If he devotes the intensity he brought to shooting (benchrest book author, hall of fame and world champion) towards his career I am sure he will succeed...

Hey! Thats my possum! Al, That was great. I laughed my ass off and that takes a lot of laughter. BTW my possum's name is Brandy and she dances nightly at The Marsupial Club. Like most of my old girlfriends her signature move is playing dead. Tim

Define Abnormal Dear Alinwa, So you were expelled for "abnormal behavior". In the benchrest crowd that is the norm rather than the exception. Did you jump into the lion's cage at the zoo and taunt a male lion like a woman recently did? Heck, even the lion didn't go near her she was so abnormal...

All chemical reactions need a compatable enviroment and the right precursers to occur Those who have been around Coots are very familiar with "some chemical reaction that caused release of some type of gas". In Dave's case it was beer and convenience store microwave burritos. The results are...

Hey children whats that smell? Powder can go bad mostly due to storage in hot conditions. The acid smell is from nitric acid used in the manufacturing process. Really bad powder will corrode a metal cap, have a strong acid smell and may release an orange cloud when opened. It will burn...

It undermined my authority Mike, "They" wouldn't let me wear my black hood while I was rangemaster in Seymour. I was able to wear the black leather underwear but boy did it chafe. Only 5 people spit on me and there was only one half hearted assassination attempt. This was a vast improvement...

I have heard that Mike Byrant won the two gun at the Buffalo this last weekend. The conditions were described as "tough" by a person who is not given to exaggeration. This covers the hellacious conditions. I would like to address the issue of Satanic forces. Mike won it coming off of his last...

Yes. They may be beady but they see all. Way to go Mike! That's pretty good shooting for some one with small beady eyes that are constantly shifting and a chest hair toupee made from recycled AstroTurf. Tim

A picture is worth a thousand steps. James, You cannot post pictures directly to this forum. You must go through an intermediate step of joining an outside site (photo bucket has been mentioned). Loadi your picture onto that site and then have them put the picture on this site. I am not sure...

The Real Reason Glen has rightfully praised Gary's work ethic in benchrest but he neglected to mention a little secret that Gary has that may account for his success. I snuck a peek into Gary's shop and the place looks like Madame Bougherty's New Orleans Voodoo Emporium. Right next to a black...

About $250 and change I was telling Jackie how much titanium I had in my body. He looked at me and stated: "You're telling me you are worth more in scrap then you are alive." It was the funniest thing I have heard in a long time. Tim

Better yet I would go with platinum or plutonium. Both are denser then any metal mentioned. Tim

Ron Stories I have two additions to Ron Stories: The Ron truck fireball episode: The reason they had to bail out of the truck was that the back window was a slider and open thus admitting flames into the cab. Ron got a nickname after this: Ron Flames. Some of the Americans went to a bar...

I want one For the great unwashed (including me): What company do you represent? Do you have a web page? Tim

Who me? All right this does it. If I get any more insults like this heads are gonna roll. Tim

I am sorry but my sex life is none of your business. Tim

Butch, Alas I will not be at the swap meet. I am recovering from two spine fractures (and subsequent surgery) I suffered in an auto accident. I will be sitting out this benchrest season but plan on shooting next season. Tim

Heads up! Ha! I know that Butch likes to drop burlap sacks of kittens out of airplanes. (Just kidding. I agree with the above quote. However, if he mails me one more dead puppy...). Tim

I've been screwed only once Dear TrxR, All of my actions except one in 30 years of shooting benchrest have been glued in and not screwed. I personally have had one action come unglued during a match. I have seen two others belonging to competitors come unglued. I have had success with both...
