Refugee from the peoples republik of Kalifornski

Post by 1911jerry »

Wooo!

Made it out of California alive and well. I have been in Texas for one year now and got my CHL last week. Did the Wally walk, no nachos or Hot dog.....

Just glad to be in a free state, and glad to find this nice forum.

God Bless Texas....

Welcome, Bro and Congratulations!

I also celebrated a year out of CA (LA Area) recently.

But I lived in San Antonio years ago, so coming here felt like being back home.

Hi. I'm Skiprr, and I've been able to stay out of Kalifornski now for 14 years and seven months. :grin:

Jerry,

Echoing "Welcome!" - my wife and I came here from California in 1990 (from Chicago, originally) and I have never been so happy to be anywhere as I am to be here.

Watch the Wally's nachos, they are toxic. Try the BBQ instead, it is mighty good (not a Wally World - look for a smokehouse in a small town).

Regards,
Andrew

Edited to add: This Forum is a great place full of really good, helpful folks.

The NRA & TSRA are a bargain; they're much cheaper than the cold, dead hands experience.

Welcome to the forum and to Texas. I have to say that I am lucky, I have never been more then 3 months, at one time, outside of this great state.

Welcome aboard Jerry.
My name too & there are a few on this board that think I believe a 1911 is the only pistol platform in the whole world.
Well it is for me anyway. ;-)
Good screen name. Read all of you posts. Glad to have you.
