What are you hoping for or asking for Christmas?

A negative Covid test...

Yes it does. Experienced that with my father.

I made a "extenuating emergency flight" to visit my mother per a phone call from my father. September, about 17 years ago. Spent about 5 hours talking and spending time with my mother. Even though it was September, it was one of the best Christmas presents I ever recieved in my life.

Prayers for your loved one

A verysincere thanks.

If you believe in prayer in the Christian faith, the reality is Christmas is derived directly from Jesus Christ (Christmas is about Jesus Christ no matter what faith you are IMO). I honestly believe that you should have "Christmas" in your heart 365 days a year, which in turn means you should have the love of Christ in your heart every day of the year as well.

Christmas trees, Santa Claus and physical presents take a back seat to the things that really matter.

9 mm Ruger - for the person who has everything - and needs to protect it.

I've got to ask, what Ruger in 9mm is worth owning?

In my defense, I think I have at least 5 rugers, none in 9mm.

Edit, looked at Rugers website. The model 8693 looks interesting, but looks like a Walther (I could be wrong on the operation). I would guess Ruger could be easier to deal with than Walther, as I've never dealt with Walther but in Rugers defense, never had a big issue dealing with them directly.

Wow! That's nearly $100 worth of ammo now days.

What would be cool is this. Take that photo to a sign company. Have them print it onto a 24" X 36" metal sign with "NO TRESPASSING" below. Put that at end of driveway. I bet they'd sell like hotcakes.

I don't think it would be cool because half of the population looking at a sign like that woudn't have a clue of what they're looking at other than reading "NO TRESPASSING".

Now, if you could get a fake human head and put it on a pike, without any words, EVERYONE would understand that.

That's probably true.
The good thing is THAT half of the population wouldn't trespass. The other half that would trespass knows what bullets are for.

I'm going to have one, then I'm going to self-quarantine for 14 days. After that I will go visit my mother.
