I too looked at the subject line with tongue in cheek...then saw it was Tim posting!    My heart hasn't beat like that since the neighbor lady was gardening in a thong.  :o   I have overcome both now.  ;)  Good one Tim.

I read the subject and thought "another rumor."  ::)

I read who posted it and cried "OH NO!"   :'(

The man is destroying his reputation. Can he ever again be taken seriously?

Also, it isn't very nice to trick an old guy because now I want revenge.

And by the way, I just read that Obama's popularity rating went way up.

Tim, that was not right.  Us old men with bad tickers can't take that kind of thing.  We'll get even one way or another.  Got me, with all the other bad news lately about Marlin, I thought it might be true.

You just about caused me a few nights in the doghouse. When I saw you posted it, I almost didn't even read it and reached for my wallet. The local FFL has a 22 Hornet SL, a 357 synthetic, and a 20ga USHL that I was headed to buy had it not been a joke.

I saw the heading and I was on my way to the classifieds to put a 22 Hornet barrel for sale @ $495.00!! ;D

Man, I finally thought I had an investment that was going to make some $$$$$.

When the Moderator starts harrassing us who do we complain to? ::)

thanks for the chuckle Tim.
