Keep in mind guns aren't really a part of culture as they are in other areas. (Well, except for LA). So the gun cleaning thing seems kinda strange. I'm a lover, not a fighter. :)

Well frankly, i can't ask them for money because they both work at a sheltered workplace because they have some limitations. I really don't need 20 bucks from kids who don't make what i make if they throw both their paychecks in the scale.
I'm sure they could pay me 20 bucks, but i could never accept it.

And i know , that i could help them because of this, but you know, they never listen to me anyway and never asked me what or where to buy the laptop.
Every so many months something is buggered up and they only call me when something is buggered up.. they never call me for something else.

Since he has the cash to buy one at a store, that store can do the customer service. It's only been a week, so they really should. BF says, well the store is not to friendly.. Well that's a bummer, but i did not pick the store, nor am i responsible for their customer service.


I have to block things like this off from time to time, else i can fix computers for free every evening.. And it really isn't a hobby.

So Rick, what's the status with Possil these days.
Is he still Possil, or did they do the smart thing and bugger off?
If not buggered off, any fun plans you are developing?

Just a friendly word of advice, that is the same advice I have passed on to the BF's of the past and have had to back up with POSSIL.
You may call her your GF, you may call her your finance, and you may even one day call her your wife but she will always be my little girl and you may be younger then me, and you may be faster then me, and you may be stronger then me but I can always put a bullet into you at 500 yards. Don't try me.

When I drink tequila, I pick fights with marines. My success rate in that endeavor is only 50% so I try to stay away from tequila.

The buggers got the better of me one day, when one morning I was in the kitchen making breakfast, heard a noise and looked up, there was the now son in law, it took me by surprise but my only response was, 'morning Philip, would you like some breakfast?'

Bugger all you can do about it really. Relationship with my daughter was just starting to come good after all those trying teenage years.
