Glasses..
Just found out I will have my eye surgery the Tuesday before the National, so you know I will have my glasses on maybe even goggles on..they may not be PC but I only have two eyes and we have to take care of them..I would get me a pair of yellow lens bubble molded wrap-a-rounds like Pancho but I afraid they would get Pancho and me mixed up on the shooting line.. ;D

'Historically correct',

When I joined the AF, reciprocating engine aircraft were still regularly flying, and one could tell what position in the aircraft the person flew by which ear he was deaf in ... wearing ear plugs or ear muffs were considered 'sissy', and any REAL MAN would just tough it out and bite the bullet about hearing ... now any time that I am in a noisy restaurant and cannot hear what is being said, I curse myself that I was not more of a 'sissy' and wore those ear plugs ...

The same for safety glasses ... I have a pair of polycarbonate bifocals that I shoot with ... without side pieces ... and everytime I go out to shoot I wish I had bought side pieces to fit on my glasses for the same reasons that I wish I would have started wearing earplugs on C-119s and C-47s  ... not to mention HH-43s and HH-53s ...
My moniker is my great grandfather's name. He served with the 2nd Florida Mounted Regiment in the Civil War. Afterward, he came home, packed his wife into a wagon, and was one of the first NorteAmericanos on the Frio River southwest of San Antonio ..... Kinda where present day Dilley is ...

Does my wife have to be a member of NCOWS to stand and hold the umbrella over me while I shoot   ??? ???


Brother Cash, if I were the King, I'd say no.

Just found this in a magazine today..guest my glasses will be clear..  ;D

During the Civil War, glasses with colored lenses were used to treat disorders and illnesses. Yellow-trimmed glasses were use to treat syphilis,   :o blue for insanity,  :o  and pink for depression.  :'(  Thus we get the expression, "to see the world through rose-colored glasses."  ::)

... And a little later, blue glasses enabled card cheats to see certain markings on their decks of "special" cards.  After a while, blue glasses-wearing card players were no longer welcome in many places and even had to fear for their lives!
