    What is a "good-paying day job with retirement and benefits"? I heard about those but just assumed they were the fantasy of some warped mind.

    Back when I was still pushin' a radiator around. I'm glad I left that life when I did. Best job in the world when I started in the 80s. Not so much by the time I quit. Definitely not something I could tolerate now.

    Wow. Thank you.

    This definately caught us as a surprise. This is our third now. I think it is time to quit. The wife is tired of me stocking each kids gun safe. They probably each have a better collection than most of the country, and thr oldest isn't 3 yet.

    Ah neat, are you willing to give rough details on what you're stocking away for them?

    Well, the two boys now each have a single shot bolt .22, a tube fed .22, pump 20 ga shotguns, a bolt action .25-06, one set is Winchester, one set is Remington. They each have a 10/22, a Remington 1100 in 12 ga, each have an AR, and I have a Remington 600 and 700 in .308, but I will try and find another 700 of the same era to match. Each also have a Colt Huntsman .22 pistol, and I'm not sure if I will be giving them a Ruger Bearcat or Ruger single six for revolvers. I have an odd feeling I will be spendig a lot more on the next set of guns. It may have to be Sako or maybe ruger, though I don't care too much for their high power rifles.

    I was trying to keep it fair. I don't know if the Sakos would be fair, unless its a girl, then she will probably be a little spoiled. CZs would be another good option. The ones I have are amazing shooters, including the shotgun.

    I may have a fight on my hands if one turns out to be a lefty. Right now, I don't think I can let go of any of mine. It would give me an excuse to "try out" some others.

    I have alot of the fire guys wanting me to adopt them as well. I think I will have to get a bigger house.
