IF it hadn't been for the various history and literature classes in HS I'd never have graduated . As I hated math and science :cuss:

I was the opposite. Every time I'd miss the honor roll it was English that bit me. I hated it, especially the boring drivel they forced us to read. :barf:

I will add that my SR year I took General English instead of CP. That class was great. We would actually do interesting things like choose our own books to read and report on. We would read classic lit in class and we would each have a part, just like we were in a play. We did "Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka. I was Gregor Samsa and had a great time turning into a cockroach. Funny thing is maybe 20 years later we built a house for her and her husband. I was able to tell her how much I enjoyed her class.

Nice job Mike and Sam

Well now I certainly liked Mills’s article on his Grade 2 4 frame 10 gauge , but then I suppose I could be called somewhat of an 10 gauge aficionado . The Roberts pictorial was quite nice as well . As were the Wheaton and Oesterle articles . I gave up my own war against gobble gobble birds a number of years ago , but that article has me thinking I wanna pole axe a gobbler with one of my 10’s or possibly something larger .

Dean, I saw that immediately and had to laugh!! Figured you'd know I saw it when I replied with "THE". BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

Mills article brought me back to my competitive muzzle loading days in the 80's and 90's. There was an article or two on Carlos Gove in Muzzle Blast (the official magazine of the NMLRA) and something in Ned Roberts book. I don't remember a whole lot about the articles but I did remember the name Carlos Gove.
