4. Dislike most gun shops.

If I could "ZOT!" you, I would. Anybody old enough to know what "ZOT!" refers to is probably old enough to be annoyed by 1-7. :mrgreen:

(And no, it isn't the Zot comic book! :evil2: )

Are all 40 year olds equal? Ask that for each age group. The answer will be no.
Exercise, eat right, good gens and a lot of don't do's will get you to my age.

Perhaps because a lot of young ones are still being brainwashed about the evil of guns, while most of the older ones are still wondering what an innernet is. :???:
