San Antonio Highland Games 51% Sign
I carried at SAHG yesterday. There is a 51% sign posted at the ticket booth, but I came in through a service entrance which was not posted. I have to go back today (disarmed), but I'd really like to know if this is a bogus sign because I go every year. I'm almost sure it's bogus for two reasons: 1)T...

Re: Please don't use the term Wally Walk
I won't darken the door of a Walmart, so I did my Wally Walk at Starbucks. I only called it a Wally Walk because "Starbucksy Walk" just does not have the same ring to it.

Re: Texas Knife Laws - New Info
I just can't believe that Bowie knives are illegal in Texas. That's just wrong.

Re: Mailed "How Long"
Mine changed to "Mailed" Thursday, and I got it today (Monday, 4/1). It was postmarked 3/29. I didn't even check because I didn't think there ws any way it would be under a week. My daughter brought it to me.

Re: Jim Carrey Video & tweet
I liked Carrey in The Trueman Show, but I think they got another actor to play him in that.

Re: Applied Online
I applied online and had fingerprints and everything all in 1/24. I've been watching this board fairly closely and I think it's a wash. In fact, some snail mail people seemed to move along faster. 6-Feb, Thirteen days after my "all-in" i got an email that acknowledged recept, but the statu...

Re: january apps
While I'm waiting... Is "manufacturing pending" poor grammar? It sounds like, "making waiting." I think it looks wrong because "manufacturing" could be either a noun or a verb, so maybe it's OK. It's just that when I write it, I get the feeling that a nun is about to hi...

Yep, I was in background review (+fingerprint review) since 3/1. I check every morning and it changed to "manufacturing pending" this morning. Yay Sunday batch!

Re: january apps
I went into background review March 1st, and just went into "Manufacturing Pending" stage today. That's 24 Days in Background Check (with fingerprints under review). Throwing out the absurdities, that seems about average for what I see here regardless of email vs. snail mail or the additio...

Re: january apps
I've been in bg check with a "fingerprint under review" since 3/1. I think some people who went into bg check without the fingerprint thing have already received plastic. I have lots of tiny little scars on my fingertips from soldering work, and these never fail to furrow the brows of fing...

Re: Explosive Exchange at Gun Hearing Between Cruz and Feins
My Facebook friends who are anti gun are just loving how Diane just stood her ground and made a fool of Ted. Isn't it odd how two people can read about the same incident and come away with two different views. Made a fool of Ted? You need better facebook friends. :) DiFi seemed to lapse into some s...
