Haven’t had much time for discussion of late. Most of my efforts have been going into making a living and training for the inevitable. For example, I shot a poor 160 on the AQT today. I am not in the best shape and it shows. When I can get it all to click, I’m making head shots at 250 yards from prone and standing positions, but sitting is a real problem. Aside from my eyes (bifocals), strength and flexibility, I’m just fine.

So wife and I are training and bringing our skills back to and beyond what they were. That’s the trouble with getting old, preoccupied and lazy, I guess.

I may not make the AQT tomorrow, but I’m back to a damn good start.

As for Rand’s Atlas Shrugged, hey - we’re living it. She and Orwell were just a generation or so off.

Which is why I started the book club. Not enough people have read the book because they were daunted by its size.

Forewarned is forearmed.
