Tell us what you are gonna accomplish in the next 6 weeks.
And it better be good.
|
| Let's see...I will go home on R&R from Iraq for 2 weeks (spend time with the family and buy more guns, ammo, and a Larue scope mount), change bases in Iraq, change of command property inventories and take command of a Recon Troop. It should be the best 6 weeks of my life! |
| Well, if things go as planned, then I'll get to hold my new son in the (latter end of) next 6 weeks. I get to name a human being and introduce him to a wonderful, albeit sometimes nuts, world. Also during this time I plan on taking my 7 yr old shooting a few more times, but that's not as cool as seeing my new boy. |
|
Hmmm, lookin' good.
I'm makin' sure y'all wuttin' just a bunch a damn bums waitin' on the sand to dry.
ETA - You guys that got pushed yourselves out of gainful employment, grab yourself a push mower and get in shape mowing lawns by exercise. If my wife's favorite TV show is right, women would pay to see a shirtless guy push-mow their yard. |
I will go through approximately 600 rounds of 12 gauge bird shot as well as (hopefully) an exactly equal number of clays.
I will then spend a week with the Boy Scouts at Summer Camp going through approximately 1500 more rounds/clays, teaching the next generation how to safely and accurately use a shotgun, the rules of firearm safety, how to clear, clean and service their shotguns and (with any sort of luck) showing them what fun it can be to shoot as a sport/means of provenance. I can't begin to tell you how excited I am about this, i.e. being able to share my love of firearms/hunting. |

I'm going to drive from Melbourne, Victoria to Adelaide, South Australia to Darwin, Northern Territory to Cairns, Queensland...In a 1993 Toyota Camry station wagon. It will be a long drive. Draft behind one of those land trains you THEY all have down there. Texan transplant on a 1 year Work and Holiday Visa. Personally, I'm more worried about the dangerous critters up in NT and QLD, salties, King Browns, Taipans, funnel web spiders, and the damn sharks... And I really want some croc boots. And maybe bbq croc. |
|
In the next 6 weeks I will be camping in hiking in yellowstone and the grand tetons. My wife will hopefully know if she has been promoted. I will hopefully have two Form 4's approved for some suppressors.
I will hopefully myself get into a middle management program, do some kick ass offroading, and enjoy time with the family. Oh yeah, once summer hits I never stop going!!! |
|
I will have lost the last 10 pounds I've been aiming for.
Hire two young people and one older gentleman that have been out of work to help with my business. Hope to keep them working until at least Thanksgiving or until they find something better for themselves. Wish I could take on more. Try and convince at least 1 more Obama voter that they made a huge mistake. I've managed to convert 2 at my office in the first 100 days
