Bottom Dealin Mike, SASS #22273 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I JUST got my June Chronicle (don't get me started on that subject ) and I saw the article by Long Johns Wolf on Colt Army Conversions. It's a very nice article, and it's in English, so I get to understand it this time. The last time I saw an article by Long Johns it was in German in "Europas großes Waffen-Magazin" and I couldn't read more that a word here and there. But the Germans were able to spell my name correctly on the photo credits. Something the Chronicle couldn't seem to do. So where the captions read Mike Beloiveau, Etter PA, USA, it should be Mike Beliveau, Etters, PA USA. Overall a nice article by Long Johns.

Just realized something... some women get bent out of shape over being called names like that. ...and if it's said in a condesending way then it would bother me too. I know you meant it only in a very polite way soooo thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabez Cowboy,SASS # 50129 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 You are not only Pretty ,,,, but very smart as well !!!! And you seem to be very nice as well ..... I once got a black eye from opening a door for a young person (she wern't no lady)to walk through ,,, have I stopped opening doors for the Fairer sex ,,,,,,,, nope I'm just ready to duck if needed .... It's a shame when men fear to put forward off their best behavior for a lady for fear of it being taken as an insult ... Both men and ladies miss-out on true concern and care in this manner ....

Jabez Cowboy I agree that manners have changed and not for the better. I was raised by a Southern Lady. I can still hear her voice telling me "If you expect to be treated with respect...treat others with respect" It works most of the time. I have learned who to stay away from.

Chickahominy Charlie Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Well thank you sir That's because you are a gentleman. Just realized something... some women get bent out of shape over being called names like that. ...and if it's said in a condesending way then it would bother me too. I know you meant it only in a very polite way soooo thank you After readin' this post, I had to chuckle.....and share this little "it's really true" story on CC.... I've had the pleasure meetin' CC a couple of times, but the last time was at the recent Texas State Shoot last month. Most folks I shoot with just abbreviate my alias as "Chick" since it's kinda hard to say, and a mouthful if you do say it. Well, it was the side match day and I was puttin' somethin' in my cart when one of my shootin' pards from my local club saw me, and yelled "Hey Chick!" Well, CC was standing a few yards away and turned around with the darnest look on her face! I think she thought he was talkin' to her! I think this type of instance would fit into that "condescending way" she mentioned above. After she realized what was happenin', we all had a good laugh.
