Don't you guys know the Armorer's saying. 'The Sun is over the Yardarm somewhere, so it's time for a GOOD bear. Also, Sam will never make a TRUE Armorer. He doesn't drink! But were working on him.

If you aren't praising yourself then you are praising you son or your ancestors. Dont you have any class? Would it break your heart if you found out that your son self inflicted a wound to get out of fighting and received the purple heart or would you cover it up and lie for him?

Oh man...after Orientation we hit the Finish Line...it was karaoke night....some people were inventing pitches to sing it....and since both Mergs and I are musicians (he voice, me brass) it set BOTH our teeth on edge!!

VorpalCat says HI too...she was sitting behind me during sports safety training.

Whoops! Chow hall's open! See ya!

Here you go again ReverseLunge shooting off that big mouth of yours. One Mergs is a freind of the family and a Col in the Army two he knows my son. And if you ever refer to my son wound as self inflicted you will show how big of a idiot you are consider it awful hard to give yourself a self inflicted wound with a 80mm morter round. Plus two other members of his unit was wounded by the same rouind inclueding his boss. So want have you ever doneto promote fencing. You sound like the type when you lose a bout it everyone eles flaunt but yours. You problem voted for Kerry who did demand a 3 Puprle Heart were he could go home from his own Grendre farememnt in his butt.

Ahhhh no....still too close to the festivities....we just went back to the dorms.

BTW...when Dan DeChaine started showing the Carmimari bayonet plugs, I thought of you!

Tim, I passed in the message ot Mergs...I think he'd already heard. RL....idiotic as usual.

:) Actually I use the Negrini plugs, not the Carmimari. He probably showed the Negrini about a minute before or after.

Watch out Tim. Remember when I created an Armorer's list, I was accused of trying to take over the role of the Armorer's committee. I was told to seize and desist. Kathy Walters is the Official keeper of the Armorer's list. If there are those who want to be on the USFA list contact Kathy at Warrior_Conselor@yahoo.com

Is the side gate facing the Finish Line permently locked now? I understood that to be the case - forcing a long detour to and from.

Reverselunge:

Reverse, you reveal only ignorance and bigotry in your posts to Yeoldarmorer.

Many of us remember Tim as a fixture behind the armory table at national tournaments long before he had a stroke two years ago. He's given a lot to fencing over the years, and both his wife and his daughter are rated referees.

And.. How dare you disparage one of our brave young men serving in Iraq?

You owe Tim an apology. Don't bother to reply to me; you're on my ignore list.

It was a couple of years ago when I was there. If you time it right and look pitiful enough though, some of the security guards will open it for you.
