Yep, recent newletter I got from instructor's assn. had Riddle retirement as front page news. It sounds like she's going to take a 30 day break then come back on in some manner with DPS working security at Capitol building. And article indicated that she might still come back some for instructor skuls ...

Linda- From one of the pages for instructor applications/recerts:

Quote: "Concealed Handgun Instructor Certificate

New Instructor Training Courses are held once a year. Next available class will be on or about June 2007. "

I came across this while going through web site in attempt to use pin number, pay and get packet electronically. Got hung up during "log in" (nothing would happen), gave up and called 'em. The guy said it should arrive in 7 to 10 days. So, until then, I guess "on or about June 2007" is the best we've got to go on for now ...

Re: Riddle humor. Last time I shot at Florence, Riddle was walking down the line "observing". I was at low-ready with PM-9 when she put her chin on my shoulder and said "My, that is a LITTLE gun". At which point I followed the advice of the old test question "Never reply with the first thing that comes to mind" and said "Yea, I wanted a challenge."

Just got renewal school notice in mail recently. And, in putzing around on DPS web site, noticed a statement to the effect that re-cert training could start in June this time ...

That could barely be time for the ink to dry on any new legislative changes. But, it certainly makes more sense than doing the majority of 'em after new laws have gone into effect on Sept. 1 ...
