I Feel Naked!

I took a new job in Germany. I got here three weeks ago and everyday, I nearly jump out of my skin when I'm driving down the road and think that I've forgotten my pistol at home. I feel completely naked without my .45 ACP on my hip!

Congrats (I think) on the new job. Hope the pay is enough to make up for the difference in cost of living. While you are there, try the veal. (No comedian jokes, just a reminder that the Germans do like their food. They also take their beir quite seriously - be careful it does not sneak up on you and clobber you on the back of the head.)

Just keep reminding yourself that while you can no longer carry that .45, the cops all carry MK-5s and know they are allowed to use them any time they want. All in all, al is in ordnung.

stay safe.
