The extremely disturbing thing is.....

I learned what the "baaaaaad" reference is about!!!:D:D

DANG!! There are some mental pictures that just do NOT belong inside my head!!!!:shock::shock:

As for who is who? Yooperlady has the pink gun.... and I am the man in black.

I don't mean to equate myself with the original "man in black" Johnny Cash 'cause I can't carry a tune in a bucket... nor am I a space alien hunting member of the "men in black" 'cause I can't tell the difference between space aliens and some of the weird people I meet... I'm just so lazy I filled my closet with black pants and black shirts... even black socks and black shoes... so I don't have to bother deciding what to wear in the morning. Much easier to just bleary eyed grab what ever shirt/pants/socks/shoes that hit my hand in the morning............... secure in the knowledge that everything will match.

:celebrate He's not joking...everything he wears is black. That's the way it was when I met him so why change something that looks good. But then again I like to wear black to. I have always liked that color.
Sometimes he wears a red shirt then the black gun would show up better. He only wears the red when I want him to.

It was a fun afternoon. With all the things happening in our world today, it is nice to get together and enjoy friendship and laughter. It is good for the soul.

So when is the next get together...once a month would be nice.
And different places. Gets you out of the house because with winter here...Jan, Feb, & March is going to be dulldrums for us senior citizens.

As long as the weather is nice, roads are clear...bikenut and yooperlady are ready to rock and roll....lol :celebrate

It was a fun outing even with that BAAAD guy Brian making all the BAAAAAD mental images.

It was nice to meet everyone. Just for the record I was the guy behind the camera for the picture. Gotta love needing privacy to keep the money flowing into your pocket. And with the folks not knowing and the sister-in-law being a google freak maybe its best to stay in the shadows online. Never know who is out there looking around. (no tinfoil hat here).

Yooperlady, the next get together that I know is planned right now is the dinner next Sunday at National Coney Island in Roseville. Its located right on the corner of I-696 and Gratiot Rd. Starts @ 5pm I think, Mikestilly is the organizer and it should be in the events thread too. I should be there as long as I have my christmas shopping and wrapping done.

There are those folks who don't mind having their real names on the internet... and there are many more who, for many very valid reasons, don't want their real names on the 'net. Although I realize that a computer savvy person can always find a way to connect internet posts to a name there really isn't (at least for me) any good reason to make things easy for them.

So my friend... nothing personal (and I have a horrible time remembering folks' names too) but the next time we meet I'll be sure to give you my real name in person.:D

Hey! I remembered one other thing I learned at the Ponderosa meetup......

Never, ever, not even once.... get Venator's........................ goat.:what::shock::D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

You should do your own local gathering.

There is nothing to organizing your own event. Just start a thread, tell everyone where it will be, when, what to bring, and if possible put an image of or a link to a map.

Please do not do that Lil. There are exceptions to this but extremely rare.

Asking permission leaves a lot of room for denial.

Starting out it may be best to attend as many OC events as possible until you get a bit comfortable OC'ing in public. Or, OC with one or two people you know who--preferably have CPL's--can carry for you until you reach your destination.

may be best for me to stick to the sidelines for awhile on this.

Keep the questions coming and we will help you get to the point where you are comfortable with the law and the responsibilities of carrying!
