[Do you think the school would do this?]

was an elementary teacher for 35 years

 

we wouldn't do it--anything dealing with minors must have parental permission.  We didn't publish anything without written documentation

[I'm a bit lost about the rules]

from the rules at the top of the page under SASS Wire, last four lines:

 

 . . . fundraising efforts, links to other bulletin boards or chat rooms, and plain rude behavior and will delete such posts without notice. Repeat offenders will be banned from the SASS Wire without notice. SASS in no way endorses or guarantees any information posted on these pages. All postings are deleted after 30 days.

guess I don't understand what qualifies as a "posting"

[Cleaning shotshells]

I use a MEC Super Sizer on all mine first thing, and that's where I wipe them off and check for "bad" hulls.  Probably don't need to use it, but it gives me something to do while the wife is figuring out my next set of chores

After each session.  It's part of my routine, and at my age, I don't need to mess with my routines

little 2-bladed nondescript one I've had forever.  If it had writing on it, it's long gone

 

also a P-38 on my car keys

 

[An Error was Made.......updated with solution]

one thing to add, I don't overload the strainer when doing this.  small batches seem to work better than a big mound of powder/shot

heard Alberta might want to leave Canada and join us, but then, not everything you see on the internet is true

[The fifth jump]

had a Mae West on my first jump--the reserve worked fine.  Then I noticed it was headed into the main.  pulled it down a bit and tried to shake it out like a bed sheet.  It slowly rose and finally inflated, this time outside the main.

 

funny thing, with the reserve deployed, your attachment points are on your front chest so you'll hanging at an angle with your feet, butt and back closest to the ground.  The good news, I didn't miss the ground.

 

The remaining 4 went fine.

 

and Caprock Kid is right, a night jump is wonderful, the moon shining through your main making it look gold in color.  And not much wind

[Scoring Applications]

we use Practiscore with cheap tablets also

 

my one gripe is you can add categories but they go at the bottom of the list--this means you can't alphabetize them and with all the categories SASS shooters can up with, it's hard to find these club-added ones.

 

small gripe

[Rotator cuff surgery]

and agree with Blackwater:  do the PT,  it will make all the difference in the world--some fellow patients didn't and basically have lost use of their arm

[Rotator cuff surgery]

how about having it done twice?  yep, left shoulder, tore it again when I tried too much, too soon.

 

with the second one, 6 months and I could do "normal" light duty stuff around the house without thinking--before was always very aware of doing too much.

 

after 9 months was back to the best it was going to be.  Can do shooting and reloading without problems, but no longer do any heavy work with it

[April 19, 1775]

 

Concord Hymn

By Ralph Waldo Emerson

 

Sung at the Completion of the Battle Monument, July 4, 1837

 

By the rude bridge that arched the flood,

   Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,

Here once the embattled farmers stood

   And fired the shot heard round the world.

 

The foe long since in silence slept;

   Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;

And Time the ruined bridge has swept

   Down the dark stream which seaward creeps.

 

On this green bank, by this soft stream,

   We set today a votive stone;

That memory may their deed redeem,

   When, like our sires, our sons are gone.

 

Spirit, that made those heroes dare

   To die, and leave their children free,

Bid Time and Nature gently spare

   The shaft we raise to them and thee.
