I try not to read too deep into anything paranoid.

Having previously worked at Intel during Andy Grove 's "only the paranoid survive" days, we used to make fun of being "paranoid" all the time. I think (just like us back then) people use the word "paranoid" a lot w/o really mean it (as defined). More of a joke kind of way, so no need to over react.

I carry when I think I may go to a less safe part of town or if I take a long road trip. However, sometimes I forget to carry or am making a spontaneous trip while not carrying, and I don't feel uncomfortable or unsafe w/o my gun in these situations.

Some people have asked me why I feel the need to carry, and I just tell them it's better to be more prepared than not.
