She makes them ask me for permission. I interview them with a Mossberg 590 in my hands. LOL

Indeed, and it is all too rare these days.

Well done, Dad.

That's just wonderful, and something of which to be truly proud. Congratulations.

My brother's hair grows really fast, he gets it cut at the beginning of summer, donates it to Locks of Love, then let's it grow for a yr, & does it all over again. Every year. I tried donating once but at the time, my hair was dyed & they couldn't accept it

Awesome of her to do that. I'm sure someone will really appreciate her kind deed.

That's great for the person who'll be getting her hair. Can't say much anymore. My allergies are coming on.

"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

LOL I like the way you think. I have one for her when she wants it. She's been shooting .22 Ruger in matches with me... tomorrow is her first IDPA match shooting a 9mm. Probably a G19 or M&P.

And while you're at it, buy yourself one, too... A father/daughter set that will remind you of her kindness and remind you both of each other, every time you take them out.

Best regards,
Nick.

She won junior division at the IDPA match! First time shooting IDPA, with unfamiliar pistol and gear. Pics later

I agree with every bit of that.
