Hey, I'm old alright, but I ain't movin' to Florida just yet....I kinda' like it here in Savannah, good fishing, pretty women, great friends, etc. Why would I want to have to arm myself to go to the grocery store or drive thru town? I work down there all of the time and carry (permitted) the whole time. My friend got robbed in St. Augustine a few years ago as he was checking into his roonm at the hotel. They made him open his trunk, were he kept a .357 w/8" barrel, and he opened up on the three robbers, shooting all of them twice!(3 kneecaps, 2 in the butt, and 1 in the hand-the dude with the gun) He forgot to tell them he had been an Olympic pistol team member in the 50's. He taught me how to shoot, so I am prepared.

LOL! Some crooks just don't have any luck at all. Kinda reminds me of a story I heard on TV news probably 10 or more years ago: A bad guy breaks into a house and surprises the husband and wife occupants. Bad guy is beating on the husband and winning. Unfortunately for the bad guy, wife is a former female professional wrestler and she nearly kills the bad guy while defending her husband!
