This is why people are fleeing the Northeast

Funny that someone else feels the need to carry 2 guns in St Louis as I do.
When I go to Chicago,I carry at least...Wait,I don't go to Chicago... for any reason.
Never mind.

Alright Duke now I'm jealous. When the wife and I go out I'm the one that has to 'pack'. Do you realize how heavy a 45 is with 2 extra clips. No wonder my back is bad. And here you are , you have 2 female bodyguards. I'm doing something wrong.

Why do you carry two extra clips?
I don't think you are going to hang out and be in a fire fight are you?
If you can't kill them in 1 clip worth of bullets or get out of there by the end of one,you may have a problem.
Re loading and firefights are in movies, not common in the real world.
Well I guess in your world it may be that way.

Let me tell you something Doug. Number one I don't carry hi-cap magazines. These days its been a XDs in 45ACP. The mags only hold 5. So with 2 mags and the gun with mag I'm still only carrying 16. That's not a lot. And I don't like people putting limits on me. Its not like the movies where you shoot them one time and they fall over dead. You might have to shoot a crack head 3 or 4 times to keep him down. To each their own.

Nobody retires, packs up and moves North. No word on the bike yet but I will keep you posted. Anyway sitting in the lobby of the VA today I strike up a conversation with an old vet sitting next to me. Turns out he's 97 years young, has a walker but gets around and was in the first wave at Normandy, the most humble person you ever wanted to meet.

Shooter,
calm down brother.
I was messing with you.
That is why there was a laughing smiley at the end.

Picked up the bike today and observed the tire damage. It was a nail hole, with a piece still in the hole it made. $389.00 later it's all better.

Keep an eye out on ebay, you can buy a brand new wheel with a brand new tire mounted up for 275.00. I've done it twice in the last 12 months.
