My wife thinks there is a bear of some sort in the woods behind the

Oh...if a bear was blocking my way to the door, I'd go to another

door.

I wouldn't shoot it. I don't walk around the yard "armed."



It is probably good you think that way, That antique 19th century

technology pistol you bought would just **** a bear off.

I just hope the bear cooperates and does not attack. It is actually

pretty rare for a bear to attack, unless it wants to eat your cat or

something.





Firearms are just a hobby for me, Greg.



Filling a void in your life?





A few hobbies can be fun. Devoting your life to hobbies says to me you

don't have much that is meaningful in it. No one I really know well who

is my age or older and ambulatory is fully retired from what they used

to do for a living or as a volunteer for others, even if they only work

at it a day or two a week.



Why is it that you come across as having the attitude that *your* way is

the *only* way one should live life or enjoy their retirement years?



For example, you should consider once in a while that your past

association and involvement with unions and union causes which has also

manifested itself prominently in your political views are not exactly

"mainstream". You are the oddity, not others.

You obviously don't appreciate perfection.
