OK I had a great wake up call this morning... it happens very, very rarely in fact this is only the 4th time in over 7 years that the wife yelled "Get the Gun" ....Talk about adrenaline punch and instant wake up !!!!!
But don't let anything even remotely threaten her little darlings, that other people call dogs

So after getting to actually take a shot this morning
(details only by PM, don't want to offend anyone)
I was wide awake and ready to shave....

Still trying to use real American steel this week, and not just American brands....
