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. I just checked the non-existent rules here, and didn't find one that stated you have to agree with my opinions. I will admit that my years of working with labor unions and their members taught me that working men and women are not serfs, and that being in favor of decent wages, safe working conditions, easily available health care, a reasonable retirement, et cetera, puts me on the correct side of those issues. Capital is not on a higher plane than labor. You aren't very convincing. Go peddle your crap to the chimps you get paid to manipulate. |

Being retired means you probably have enough life experience to know what's right and what's wrong, what is opportunistic BS talk and what is the real deal. Being retired means you can judge people on individual merits, not as members of a group that can influence or affect your livelihood and means of making a living. Being retired means you never have to kiss anyone's ass. I like being retired. === What he said. |

I'm sorry, Bilious, but I don't see Tea Party types, born-again John Birchers, politically active superchristian fundies, racists, women haters, gay bashers, et cetera, as anything more than boils on the body politic and commonweal. |
