Guns, ammo, and perceptions
You may have heard on the news about a southern California man put under 72-hour psychiatric observation when it was found
he owned 100 guns and allegedly had (by rough estimate) 1-million rounds of ammunition stored in his home. The house also featured a secret escape tunnel.
My favorite quote from the dimwit television reporter: "Wow! He has about a million machine gun bullets." The headline referred to it as a "massive weapons cache".
By southern California standards someone even owning 100,000 rounds would be called "mentally unstable. Just imagine if he lived elsewhere:
In Arizona , he'd be called "an avid gun collector".
In Arkansas , he'd be called "a novice gun collector".
In Utah , he'd be called "moderately well prepared", but they'd probably reserve judgment until they made sure that he had a corresponding quantity of stored food.
In Montana , he'd be called "The neighborhood 'Go-To' guy".
In Idaho , he'd be called "a likely gubernatorial candidate".
In Wyoming , he'd be called "an eligible bachelor".
In Southern Delaware, he'd probably be the guy next door. There is only 6 of them in Northern Delaware.
And, in Oklahoma , he'd be called "a deer hunting buddy".
In Ohio, he would be called Ghurd! ;D
No, I'm not "back" but found this interesting.
Just to lighten the mood.

With the price of ammo and reloading components going up It sounds like a better investment than gold.

After reading that, and having a good chuckle, I made myself a large note, and posted it on the wall
above the computer.
It reads"Do Not, repeat, NOT, annoy Ghurd for any reason whatsoever".

If this works, just proving I wasn't bluffing. Also to try and figure out attaching.
guess it worked
