Why Is It That...?

And I, for one, am glad that you do share with us, Craig!

I think we can see by the recent loss of our Forum that is is an important link to others and to significant information.

Fortunately, years back, I got busy and never found the time to sign up for Facebook.
Now, if someone suggests I contact them through FB I can happily say that I can't do that.
My quiet revenge for all the noise that is out there, is to tune it out. We don't have a television. The few publications that come to the house are "Parker Pages" (at the top) "Lancaster Farming" and a few other farming magazines.
I can't remember the last movie I went to. So when all the stuff come out about the decline of the film industry or the print newspapers, I am immune.
When I drive the truck at night, the radio is mostly off. I have 68 years of thoughts to ponder. I hope I have another 20 or so to add to them.
The phrase "Life is short" keeps coming up as I get older. I am thankful that I have found truly wonderful friends here on the Parker site.
Honestly, Beverly and I look forward most to seeing those friends at the Southern, or Ernie's or Mike's. It's like family. There is much love amongst us, even if we don't say it out loud.

Facebook is a double edged sword and it is what you make it. FB has allowed me to reconnect with many people I served with in the USAF 40+ years ago. I have also connected with distant relatives, some of whom I didn't know existed. In spite of it's negatives I am glad it exists.

Clark, you are, as my Pop would say, “Livin’ Right.”

And…what the heck is Facebook???!

If you want to see misinformed, low information posters on a gun website, look at the "shotgun" section of the Winchester collectors forum (WACA). Even the chief moderator is way down on the knowledge ladder. NO, I do not post to correct their errors. I let them stew in their own juices. True Winchester collectors deserve better than what they get on their forum.
