    Most eggcellent wrapping right there.  Too funny.  I hope you have a recovery plan once the humor wears off ;)

    @dmchicagoWe so badly want to do that trip and area of the world.  The question is how?  Land? With a tour? On our own(what we usually do)? What exact areas? etc...

    When you go please send pictures, if you can, with updates to your adventures. Lot of people are interested in other people's trips and what they are doing.  Jus took at the "what are you doing right now" thread as proof.

    I am saying goodbye to the guy in the office next to me. He is never coming back. Ever. 

    He he going with a weight loss theme for his wife. Apparently she has been saying for the last few months she wanted to lose 30 lbs.  He wants to support her as much as possible, so he got her 5 hot wraps at the spa, a membership to weight watchers, sneakers, pedometer, and a treadmill.  I kid you not.  If I did not see the receipts for them (all dated within the last 10 days) I would not believe it. He even got the new WW calculator they have out.

    4 others were in trying to talk to him about getting at least something fun or an exciting experience, but he is holding steady to that theme. 

    Good intentions, but......

    My wife has always wanted a hand gun to kee at home. So I finally got her a sccy (sky) industries 9mm pistol.

    made in America (Daytona beach florida) with a lifetime warranty that stays with the gun. Even if it's stolen, they will replace it.

    here a picture from Google. It's all wrapped up right now or I would take a picture

    A pink gun got one of my X-ray techs out of a speeding ticket!  The poor cop couldn't keep a straight face when he saw it. She has a concealed carry permit, presented it and informed him of the weapon location. He asked her to produce the gun so he could secure it, but lost it when he saw a pink aluminum stubby 38.....

    needless as to say, Kim is my favorite X-ray tech!

    I'll do a post trip report upon return. There is no cell and very weak wifi down there. 

    I loved following along on your trip recently so I'll do what I can to return the favor!

    There's no duty to inform in Georgia. No way I'm handing over my handgun.

    When taking my conceal and carry class last weekend the class instructor specifically said not to mention anything (within reason) if getting pulled over and carrying.

    What could possibly go wrong?  Right?

    Now my wife is saying she didn't want the Vacuum that she said she wanted but can't remember what she wanted. I wish I could get away with saying stuff my wife says.
