Interesting thing happened in class today...

My eighth grade history teacher did something similar.
During the F&I war lessons, he had two re-enactors he knew come in. They were dressed in full period dress, complete with weapons. One had a PA rifle and the other had a Brown Bess.
Our teacher brought a Brown Bess in again during the Revolutionary War lessons. He also brought in a Henry, a Spencer, and a '51 Colt Navy for the Civil War lessons.
For the rest of High School, history was still my favorite subject.

Last wednesday in my IPC (InterPersonalCommunications) class I and everybody else in the class had to walk around with a sign on our chest listing our hobbies.....

I'd say a good 2/3 of the class wouldnt meet my eyes

Had: pistol shooting, long guns, reloading, beer and reading about chemistry.....=nut?? I think not.

One of my good friends is a history professor at a smallish college. He's a Veitnam veteran, 2 tours, USMC Gunnery Sgt. Written several books and they have been published and gone through multiple printings. During his Texas history classes ( I took them during the late 80's-early 90's period) he brought in a Brown Bess, Missisippi rifles, a Trapdoor, and several of his collection of revolvers. He collects firearms which he has documented as belonging to the famous and infamous of Texas and western United States history. He and I have sat in his office many afternoons over an old Colt or S&W talking about his latest research or acquisition. One of the most impressive stories is that of his purchase from the family of General John Bell Hood of the Generals' saber and personal shotgun.

Oh, by the way, his classes always make and are always overflow.
