Well deserved break, stay dry. If there is any way I can help, deliver food / water, etc. in remote areas, let me know.
Thanks for all your efforts, I wish it had not been so painful.

I'll keep this brief. Thanks for all your hard work, seen and unseen. Thanks for keeping us in the loop when you were able to and for putting up with us when you couldn't.
Much obliged, sir.

Re: SB11 & HB910 This week....
He got his time on the microphone (after the removal of his amendment had been discussed and approved) and said he was "disappointed" that it was removed, but had "signed the committee report" and approved of its removal and the bill. It was a short speech nearly as (bite tongue), well, um, hmm, as (bite tongue), as the amendment fiasco. I understand why he felt compelled to add the amendment, I understand why the body gave up and let it on, I still don't understand why he couldn't hear his fellow members telling him to withdraw it.Ruark wrote:Real quick..... in the Senate, how did Huffines vote?
Re: SB11 & HB910 This week....
I am excited that HB910 made it. It is a good bill that all of us will benefit from at times (for me, it is primarily when I go to the range to instruct). I am still hoping that we get SB11 passed. My day job is at a very big local University that will restrict us from conceal carry if they can. I really do not want to continue doing what I have to do when I am going and coming from work. Many people state they don't see why campus carry is that important but when you are a person that carries at all times except when you are at work, you would understand the frustration of working at an institution that you pay taxes to that doesn't allow you to carry.
