Hi Deb. I'm sorry you're feeling under the weather. I hope you get to feeling better. I've had a little setback myself with an infected lump on my neck, but I went to the hospital, and of course because I go so often, they could not find any record of my still being alive. Anyway to make a short story long, they of course, gave me an antibiotic that I was allergic to, and I ended up taking another trip to said hospital where they gave drugs that made me very high for an entire weekend(best damn weekend I've had in a year). Although my wife said doing wheelies on the lawnmower was a little overboard, but then...we, as adults, must take our fun where we can find it, don't we?? You take care of yourself and get to feeling better...be sure to ask for lots of drugs, and to anyone reading this under the age of 18, in the immortal words of Hilary Clinton..."That is not what I meant to say"....Hugs...Dan 07/02/2008 22:54
Never read that one by Dr Wayne, but read "Your Erroneous Zones" years ago and it was GREAT, but then I am a SUCKER for self help books.. :) 07/02/2008 19:11

You're welcome Ginny! I pray your mom is doing better! I'm hanging in there. Really ticked off at the doctor's office....left message on Monday for doc to call...they call and say, "call back....clerk took incomplete message." So, I call back early this morning...not call still by 4:30 pm, so I call and say "wassup" and they say...well, they're gone for the day. So, I told her how unhappy I was with their ineffiencies and if they were in this type pain/discomfort, they'd understand...and to boot, doc ain't in office until noon tomorrow. I hung up and cried...and then cooked our evening meal. A mom's work is never done...... Have a great 4th. 07/01/2008 22:02

Here is a great place in Dallas http://www.dfwgun.com/CHL1.htm Just to give you an idea on what it takes to start as far as prices and all. From what I understand if you take the course with a revolver you can only carry a revolver and if you take the course with an automattic then you can carry a revolver or automatic. 06/20/2008 23:29
The guy I was talking to said he personally carries a 44 revolver, five shot. He said he would not carry anything less than a 40. Although he was showing me a 38 that he thought highly of. I have neve owned a gun either but it might be time. I wish I could remember the name of the gun. I think a gun store would have info on upcoming classes. One suggestion he made was that if you could borrow a gun to the class, then you might be fortunate enough to have people in the class let you try their gun before making your decision on what you would like. I got four guitars and I'd like to find someone I could trade a guitar for a gun. I wish you well. I am not one who has ever had a strong opinion on guns. I mean here in America where guns are legal we have by far more homicides than countries that don't allow guns. But then again, if only the bad guys have guns and we don't, that is not a good scenario either! I think I am getting a gun too! 06/20/2008 18:20
Okay...thanks for the info Ely! Steve and I have talked about doing it, but with young children in the house and their friends coming over...we just have not wanted to have one around. But, we're getting closer to the empty nest days...so, it's getting high time to look into it! Thanks again! 06/20/2008 20:47
I was in a band too in school and I wanted to be the drums but my mom said that was for boys, so I missed out :( .....but now I can play them again...sort of lol! 06/20/2008 16:46
I just happenned to have a good chat with a local gun dealer a few days ago. They are having a class this weekend. My understanding is that after passing the class you can apply. I think the class was $85 and $130 or so to apply for the concealed handgun permit. Prior to taking the class you would need either a revolver or semi-automatic - and your licence would be for one or the other as I understand it. That is about all I can remember on that. I was hoping to trade him a guitar for a handgun, but he was not interested, so I probably will not be taking the class now. I wish I knew more. 06/20/2008 12:45
