Annie Lee,

Thanks for the invite Darlin'. I guess they were so upset over there at the SASS Wire about my PWDFR Posse, they suspended me! They claimed it was for other infractions, but it never happened until the PWDFR posts. Anywho, I'll do as ya suggested & post on here where I should have stayed the whole time!

Much obliged,
Badlands.

Howdy Badlands,

I heard what happened to you at SASS from Slim Silver. Sounds like that moderator overthere is acting heavy handed. That's a shame since I thought we were all supposed to live by the Cowboy Way. Sounds like he lost his way, especially when anyone posts anything about you and it goes away in about 60 seconds.

Parson Oneless and Badlands Walker, I understand your concerns, but this is a forum to praise and discuss our wonderful Rugers. Please keep the other conversation to PMs?

Yep, I'm tsking...

Joyce (AnnieLee) · June 03, 2005, 08:58:40 PM

There was no tapping on the door, no light banging, just a single, loud **WHOOMP** that caused the door to the RATS Hole shake on its hinges. The door to the peep hole flew open.

"Well, I'll be, a BIG Ruger fan. Come on in, D'Ranged, you've got number 189!"

The wagon is loaded with the supplies and she is just slipping into her nightshirt for some sleep before heading out to the match in the morning when the door to the RATS Hole starts thumping.

"Dagnabbit, go to sleep! Go shoot your Rugers in the morning! Let me get some rest!!"

But the thumps continue.
"All right, all right, keep yer drawers up, I'm coming!"
The peephole opens and her grumpiness vanishes as she spies two new RATS at the door.

"Chick Brewster, you've got number 190, and let us know when you slip over to the darkside so you can be a DIRTY RAT! Missouri Bountyhunter, yer # 191! Come on in, grab a corner and a bunk for some shut eye, we're shooting tomorrow! Welcome to the RATS Hole!"

JD Trampas · June 05, 2005, 10:23:45 AM

AnnieLee, sent you a message, let me know

All for now JD Trampas

Joyce (AnnieLee) · June 05, 2005, 03:26:12 PM

JD, even RATS make mistakes, including the two of us! Nice to know you really want to be one of the RATS! You are still #50.

In the quiet of the night, while taking care of chores, a quiet man leaned to whisper into the listkeeper's ear. She gave a nod and scribbled in his name.

Welcome to the RATS, The Raven, you are number 188!

AnnieLee

JD Trampas · June 05, 2005, 03:53:27 PM

Thank you Annielee, it is hard getting old I guess, still feel young, sometimes any way, I guess you got my message, sent you another one, disregard that one, lol,

All for now JD Trampas

Adirondack Jack · June 09, 2005, 03:18:46 PM

Howdy. I shoot them roogers, .45 flavor. Usta wuz a smokeless warthog, now I guess I'm a dirty rat (but it's 777, so it cleans up easy) LOL.

Joyce (AnnieLee) · June 09, 2005, 07:20:03 PM

There came a scritching at the door to the RATS Hole. The peephole opened and beady eyes looked around, but all that was seen was the darkness of black. The peephole started to close, but was flung back open with a hefty kick from the outside. The eyes searched more carefully, then the door swung open.

"Well, it's about time, Adirondack Jack, one of the DIRTY RATS! It's about time you showed up, come on in and welcome! You have number192!"

AnnieLee

Big John Denny · June 09, 2005, 07:41:06 PM

Ms AL,

I'm already a PWDFR. Can I be a RAT too? I own a bunch of them Rugers and thats all I shoot at SASS matches.

Joyce (AnnieLee) · June 09, 2005, 07:59:18 PM

Of course you can, Big John Denny, Ruger lovers are Ruger lovers! Welcome to the RATS Hole, you have number 193!

AnnieLee

PowderRiverParson · June 09, 2005, 10:09:11 PM

Been a RAT since I picked up a used Single Six flattop in 1976. Blackhawks in .357 and .44, Vaqueros in .45, Standard Model .22s, #3s in .22 Hornet and .45-70, M-77s in .30-06, .270 and .308 have followed (and come and gone), but that 9 1/2" flattop will have to be pried from my cold dead fingers. Where do I sign up?

Powder River Parson

Joyce (AnnieLee) · June 10, 2005, 11:04:52 AM

The person outside the door seemed weighed down as he tapped at the door to the RATS Hole. The peephole flew open.

"Waddaya want?"

Without saying a word, the pard opened his duster. What rode inside that duster caused the listkeeper to gasp.

"Holy Tamoley, lookit that mess of RUGERS!! Come on in Powder River Parson, you are RATS number 194!"

AnnieLee

McLintock · June 10, 2005, 11:49:40 AM

I started shooting CAS with a pair of Colts, 1 2nd gen in .45 and a 3rd gen in .45, but finally decided to go Old Model Rugers for dependibility and four click actions. Never looked back since and have expanded to the point I have 7 Old Models I use for Black Powder, and other classes, and four of them are certified Warthog specials. I've put their pic's on the pic's thread so now will join up.
McLintock

Joyce (AnnieLee) · June 10, 2005, 12:52:49 PM

The man walked up, set up a table, displayed all his wonderful Rugers to the world, then tapped on the door to the RATS Hole. This time, the peephole didn't open, the door did.

"Come on in McLintock! Gather up all your fine firearms and come in, you are RATS #195!"

Annie Lee,

Thanks for the invite Darlin'. I guess they were so upset over there at the SASS Wire about my PWDFR Posse, they suspended me! They claimed it was for other infractions, but it never happened until the PWDFR posts. Anywho, I'll do as ya suggested & post on here where I should have stayed the whole time!

Howdy Badlands,

I heard what happened to you at SASS from Slim Silver. Sounds like that moderator overthere is acting heavy handed. That's a shame since I thought we were all supposed to live by the Cowboy Way. Sounds like he lost his way, especially when anyone posts anything about you and it goes away in about 60 seconds.

Maranatha,

Parson Oneless

Sorry AnnieLee, I thought I did this in a PM. Been awhile since I was on CAS City & I guess a blundered!
