YES!!!!
OLN is the reason I switched to Direct TV and left Time Warner in the dust. Firearm shows and pro bike racing... I get all sweaty just thinking about it.

Jim...
"I had a comments chat forum for AS in Compuserve. (Anybody remember Coupuserve?)"
Do I remember Compuserve?
DO I REMEMBER COMPUSERVE???
Slowly I turned and crept, step by step, inch by inch...Whoops! Wrong skit..
As a matter of fact I do. I remember being reprimanded by SySops for poking holes in many of the anti-gun postings of the Firearms Forum manager (forgot his official title). I remember havings posts moved to a "quarantine" area because they embarassed the anti-gun people who hung around the forum. I also remember a lot of great pro-gun people there. I'm afraid that I don't recall running across your chat forum... I guess that was my loss.

That's Incredible!
I've been through (trashed) at least 10 computers since I last logged in to Compuserve!
(My notebooks usually give up after one year on the road, but the one we backed a test car over was only 4 weeks old at the time.)
I couldn't find my number if it was the lottery winner!
Now, the guys who never were Compuserve users or AOL back about 10 to 12 years ago are wondering what the heck we're talking about. So I guess we ought to cut it out.
But the point was, I want to hear your comments. It really helps.
Finding out whether the dogs are eating the dogfood or not.

Well I'm glad OLN is going to be carrying the shows and I believe there should be even more firearm related programming on OLN as well as a few of the other cable/satellite stations.

Wow. Flashback. I hadn't thought of the Firearms Forum on Compuserve in a long time.
Joe Reynolds.
There was some heavy-handed moderating going on there years ago.
Jim! Great news. Congratulations. OLN is a good outfit. I've done a bunch of stuff for them, and they run my radio show on their channel on the Sirius satellite (radio) system.
Others, if you don't get OLN, just call Dish Network or Direct TV. Both have it. Both have the Outdoor Channel, also. I have Dish in addition to cable, because my cable company wouldn't carry all those good hunting and fishing channels.
See ya in Orlando, Jim.

Tom:
That raises an obvious question for the cross promotion PR types... when are we doing a story on you?
And when am I turning up on radio?
BTW: Have all you guys been following the Press Releases turning up on my site and heading for distribution at the SHOT Show?
The USPSA release is already up as of this morning...
There's an NRA Competitive Shooting Division release coming in the next several hours.
We're tying up rights and planning the series.

Heh, heh. Obviously, we need to talk in Orlando! No doubt we will be at many of the same events.
I know what you look like, and I look just like I sound.

Jim I love your work!
I used to wake up like a kid on Christmas morning to catch your show. Of course I'm 35 but the enthusiam is the same. I think we get the Outdoor channel I'm not sure about OLN. I sure hope so.
I will share the news with all my gun nut buddies. We just watched you last saturday night. The little woman even likes it.
Hats off and keep on keepin on -bevr
Ps. How about a small blurb on every show that has famous progun quotes from notable figures from yesterday and today.
Thanks

I just viewed your website. Congrats on your new contracts.
I loved your instructional segments on A.S. I've been thinking about a unique segment for your new show. I believe that many individuals buy their first firearm for self-defense. Real life self-defense situations are always instructional. I always read the "Armed Citizen" page in the "American Rifleman".
How about a weekly "Ayoob Files" segment?

I like that idea about famous quotes from famous people... I can find a place for those, but we have to have them verified as accurate and attributed to the right author. So get your books out and e-mail me directly with what you have found:
"Give me Liberty of give me Death"
.... Patrick Henry (?) was it? you see the problem.
On the other ideas, like the frequent suggestion we update current pro and anti gun legislation each week.... you got to understand these shows must re-run... at least three weekends over a year. So I really can't put in anything that is tied to a known event: "This week the senate is..." won't work, cause it will be flat wrong in 17 weeks when the show runs the second time.
So grapple with that issue as you suggest. It's not like a live nightly newscast.
Jim
PS: Another press release is posted on the website... go see if your brand of NRA competition will have TV coverage this year.
