 I know what you mean  8). The old H&R forum use to get dozens of new posts everyday and it was very popular. Since it changed hands and layout several times it was a pita to use and 90 % of the old members quit posting.
When Graybeard posted his letter of resignation and mentioned this forum I couldn’t believe it is the old forum again but need to get more people to come back. It does feel like home  :).

Another one who left who comes straggling back to the lure of the old forums.

Just caught mention of it in an email.

Feels like home. Reckon I'll pull up a chair and see how it goes.

I have to admit I've missed the H&R talk.

It's still here
I'm happy with the ones I have
they function well and are comfortable 

Hopefully, I'll get to prove up the
357 that got the MAX treatment a
while back. I don't have any doubts
it'll put an animal down, I just need
to do it.  Have to see something
first though.  . .

Certainly is nice to see people returning. :) :) :). I'm currently working on a pair of Handi's. Unfortunately it's that time of year when I have to do the work thing. Testing pretty much comes to a stand still till next year :( :( :(

I came back just to tell everyone that today I begin transition leave for my Army retirement. 27 years, 7 month, and 5 days I survived.

Thanks, Dinny

Thank you everyone! I have accepted a contract position teaching at the Camp Atterbury, IN medical simulation training center. I was hoping to live nearby but the housing market in that area is cut throat. I may have to live an hour or so away.

Thanks, Dinny

Not so far, but maybe someday I will. This is not the same Indiana I left 3 years ago. My liver is paying the ultimate price. I think I'll talk to my primary care doctor about getting on the donor list soon. At this rate of consumption, my liver won't last for long..

Thanks, Dinny
