  1. I've had it for quite some time as well. My cardiologist said many people live long normal lives with it. I simply take my meds and haven't experienced any problem I can attribute to it.
  2. I admit to being ignorant on the topic. However, an old family friend went into the hospital on 10 May for ablation, and experienced a heart attack, apparently due to a bubble in his catheter. He was put on life support and given a very low chance of survival (1%-5%). He's been hooked up to various machines and is slowly improving and being weaned off them, one at a time. Not posting this to frighten you, just might want to discuss with your physician to get the complete scoop on all possible eventualities.
  3. The receiver looks antique, but the barrel is new. Does it need to go through a licensed dealer?
  4. Beautiful gun. I'd be interested in trading my side x side 12 gauge percussion shotgun straight up for your Mortimer. Mine is in the same condition as yours and is labeled Navy Arms but looks like it, too, was manufactured by Pedersoli. You appear to be near Shreveport. Don't know if you travel within the state but, if you're interested in the swap, perhaps we could save shipping costs by meeting up somewhere. I'm in Thibodaux. Regards, Cleburne
  5. Nimble,

     

    Just a quick note to confirm receipt of your payment in today's mail.

     

    Thanks & Regards,

  6. Not near as weird as the politicians in Washington, D.C.
  7. Times change but people remain the same through the ages. Very neat to see. Thanks.
  8. +1 Those rolled up cuffs collected all kinds of dirt that'd empty onto the floor when we got home. Would draw "evil eyes" around the two little rivet holes on the sides of the Keds tennis shoes. Great memories.
  9. Good one, thanks! Boudreaux & Thibodaux jokes rock!
  10. Wonderful story and exceptional interview and article. Thanks so much for sharing! I've passed the links onto friends and family for their enjoyment.
  11. Thanks for sharing your very special memory. My wife and I were blessed to have attended a John Denver concert many years ago in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. As I recall, it was the same night the US Olympic hockey team upset the Russians, and he broke the news during the concert, eliciting cheers from the crowd. John always struck me as being a true Western gentleman.
  12. I have one in .54 caliber. It's surefire and a true tack driver. Someone will get a good deal on a great rifle.
  13. Neither .... Sam Elliot.
  14. Beautiful! Gotta wonder how much dinero is charged for one.
  15. Was always one of my favorites to see in WWII flicks. Good luck on your search. Would love to see it in the flesh when you locate one.
  16. Hellgate, I'll take the Walkers. Just let me know where to send payment. Do you require a money order, or will a personal check be acceptable?

  17. Just a quick note to again thank you for your stories on the SASS Wire. The lastest one about Ol' Reb touched a cord with me. Though I never got to speak with a Confederate veteran, I look back at my childhood in the 50's, and my family and older friends of the family with great affection. Your posts help slow down today's busy schedules and put me in a better place.

  18. Gotcha. Thanks for the reply.

  19. Would Throckmorton happen to be your actual family name? I knew a young lady in college with that last name here in Thibodaux, Louisiana back in the late 60's, early 70's. Married my best friend at the time.She an her family weren't originally from Louisiana though. Don't remember her home state, but it was Northern.
