At times i find myself hob-nobbing with the intellectual upper crusty types due to my ties with classical music. Saturday night found me at a little wine and cheeser that was being held as a fundraiser for local arts organizations. As always my CCW was in my pocket and I was giving it no thought. Next thing you know I'm being last minute invited to another function for sunday morning but I'm already all planned up to try out the new range i just joined. So i decline saying I had already made plans. Then the absolute most excitable of all the ladies present says to me, "What could you possibly be doing tomorrow?"
To which I replied, " I'm goin' shootin!"
"SHOOTING?!?!? YOU SHOOT GUNS!?!?!" (lots of eyes on me now)
Then she says. "Do you have a license to carry guns?"
"Yes I do." says I
"Do you have a gun on you now?" she asks.
To which I replied with a slow shaking of my head and the word, "Nope."
"Good," she says, "because if you did I would be very frightened."
and we moved on to other subjects.
What would YOU have done?
Lets say I am absolutely SURE there would have been quite the scene had i said yes.
I did manage to hook up with her Sunday evening where she was telling me how hard it was to open new CD cases.
So I told her (with the other SMALLER ccw in my pocket now) that next time i would bring my gun and she could shoot them open.
we chuckled about THAT idea for a little while...
