Pretty little thing like that lying next to him, and all he can think about is his rifle holding zero? If she can't distract him, he has a lot more serious problems and isn't even smart enough to realize it. His rifle probably figured that out and is just messing with him. :mrgreen:

It takes work to communicate. If you don't put forth the effort, the results are seldom satifactory. A lack of imagination and an overactive one is a bad combination.

She could probably help with his lack of zero...

If nothing else he'd have been much more relaxed on his next range trip. Maybe it wasn't the rifle, maybe he was just full of pent up frustration.

I get this a lot with women who come in trying desperately to 'lose weight' or do something to see if they can get their husband 'interested' once again. When she's getting in bed and ready for romance, he's in his 'den' on the internet, looking for digital romance... :roll:

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.
