Hey there, Dee. Dave and I made it to Hays, KS for the night. Should be in Denver by noon. It was great to finally meet you, Joe and Dustin after all these years BS'ing on SC. Yeah, it was another fine match put on by the Snake and his trusty sidekick Pat O.

My only bitch about the match is 120 shots per gun is not enough. Lets talk about a 160 for the future. 8) Another complaint is I got there a little late for supper and all the potato salad was gone and.....all of Mrs.O's famous ham hock green beans were gone, too. :( Snake, see to it next year we get a double batch of greenbeans, please. :ymparty:

PS. Snake, check your email sometime late afternoon Monday.

PSS...tell O'Malley thanks for the tip. Zarda BBQ in KC was fantastic! It will be our new "go to" food stop to and from your match.

Wow, that was a great match! It is permanently going on the match schedule (Snake, save me a spot for next year; the check is in the mail :twisted: )

While having to change scopes on the fly in the middle of a match is not ideal, I cant imagine a better match experience or a better venue for a big match. The operation of the relays and the work of the target setters was a lesson in efficiency. It was great to see friends and meet new ones. Dave Bonner is a highpower machine.

Can't wait until the 2014 MO HP regional!

Dustin

P.S. To Scott Dahms, thanks again for saving my @$$ with the extra scope! I will make that one up to you!!!

Thanks to all the fine competitors who made it easy...no whining, no sophomoric babble. A big thank you to Adam Braverman at Lapua, Matt Reams at Sierra Bullets, and Redding Dies for their generosity and support...they went above and beyond and that should tell all of you who to patronize with unflinching loyalty :ymhug: These folks are the best. Drop them a line!
McAlice...I have already alerted Mrs O about the green beans and O'Connell's Pub about the 'tater salad :D ......and the media about your personal victory over the infamous Goodnight :p
TO ALL OF YOU WHO READ THIS: Bob McAlice actually took 1st AAA and the results posted here are being corrected :-o

OK..OK, I will report on the sex toy. x_x

Right after the morning pre match pep talk, prayers and safety meeting, the Snake announces that a special award must be presented. My name, for some reason unknown to me, is called to the podium. The award is for the most deserving pain in the a$$. Me?, but why me? :? There were certainly more deserving folks present. Either way, many thanks to you Snake for my award. Not sure about how it should be used, but my friend Kevin has good connections to the dark side of the internet. We will figure it out. I am seeing a trend here, Pharr gets a big tube of Preparation H, what could be next?

I may have to re gift this one at our HP state coming up soon. Maybe I will just run it over to my favorite deer hunting spot.

Culpepper was all stary-eyed about Camp Perry this year and I had to put the brakes on my $$$ flow. I also had a mandatory biology class on Friday so unfortunately I just couldn't make it happen this year.

That CornHoler had to be dreamt up by some Deep South Deliverance m'fer. The crap we humans come up with!

McAlice, did you smell that thing before you accepted it? Snake may have given it a few twists himself. :shock:

Trent...if you were here I would have tested it. After all when there are rump issues (splinters etc) we all think of you and your home spun surgical techniques :D What was disturbing was after he received the award he started checking it for an on-off switch... :ymdevil:

Ohhh those are threads. At the match I figured it was just "ribbed" for ummm, his pleasure. :shock:

Was great to meet all of you that I had not yet had the fortune of meeting from Colorado, Missouri and Arizona. We will be back next year if all goes as planned and might have a few more coon asses in tow with us too!.

I hadn't actually clicked on the link to watch the YouTube video until just now, so it wasn't immediately obviously what such a thing would be for. My perception of you guys having some serious issues is only slightly less after seeing the video... 8-} 8-x :-t
