      Max Michel USPSA Training Class - Nov 5-6, 2011 near New Iberia

      Ditto. Max gives a great class. I walked in being a doofy recreational shooter and learned so many good fundamentals. Met a bunch of great guys too boot. (Hopefully will see you all soon! Life is getting in the way.)

      Not real bright, that one.

      You can buy one off the shelf. I have a Springfield EMP that fits my little hands and is a 9mm. And one-third the price.

      Max Michel class

      Yay! Thanks for posting the photos jayd...and D and I can't that everyone enough for helping out up newbies. We had a great time and everyone was so great about helping us out with the most elementary of things. Hopefully we will see some of you at some of the local matches soon!

      Max Michel class

      Nope...my whole body hurts. So glad cruise control exists - didn't want to use my legs for the entire drive home.

      Was awesome. Awesome instructors, and everyone I met there was great. Just wanted to share.

      Heather Speaks out against TV

      It was awesome until today...when it poured during the Max Michel class and I had to be concerned about my mascara running AND trying to shoot straight. Sometimes it sucks being a girl. But most of the time it doesn't.

      No firearms allowed signs = No money business cards?

      Awhile back, a BS member wrote a very thoughtful letter to the manager of Whole Foods in Metairie about their no firearms sign. The result: the sign was taken down. I think it's important to engage in intelligent, meaningful discussion; otherwise pro-gunners can come off sounding like...

      Why can't people just say they enjoy shooting?

      I don't think the OP was referring to the same conspiracy theorists. He's talking about graduate students in professional school, and at risk of sounding like an elitist a-hole, they're just not that stupid. Well, maybe I'm sheltered, but the MD / JD / PhD students I know have the same ideas I...

      I think my wife has depression

      If you're not financially in a position to go on vacation, why would you add a financial stress to your life??? Or get her a puppy to take care of when she doesn't want to take care of herself??? I don't know a psychiatrist either, but now would really be the time to find one. We can all...

      I think my wife has depression

      Anti-depressants help depressed people every day. They don't "correct" depression the same way, say, antibiotics kill of the bacteria in an infection. Stopping medication when a person is not over their depressive episode will result in continued depression until the episode is over, and you...

      I think my wife has depression

      Talk to her. And/or someone close to her like her mother or a sister. If that doesn't help, talk to her doctor. There is no shame in trying medication for awhile. Most people don't stay on medication forever and there's no reason to be so unhappy for months at a time just because your brain...

      Why can't people just say they enjoy shooting?

      I love shooting. I also live effing New Orleans. Maybe you're just lucky, but some of us getting our MDs or whatever graduate degrees haven't had the greatest experience living here. We've had friends shot during Mardi Gras, a car stolen in front of a friend's house, home invasion in next...

      St. Mary Parish SO Range Report.

      So I attempted to go to the Franklin range this morning. I called the number of the sheriff's office to make sure they were open, but the woman on the other end was lass than helpful. Me: Hi, is your range open today? Woman: Uh. I don't see why it wouldn't be. Me: Do you know what the address...

      911 Emergency Calls in NOLA going unanswered

      I once called 911 in New Orleans because a creepy dude was standing in front of my house and flashed me. The dispatcher just laughed.

      Where to find a decent woman?

      It doesn't have to be friends you hang around with. 2 of 3 of my single guy friends were traveling and met their girlfriends and they've just been traveling to make it work. The other one met a girl who was a friend of a friend's brother visiting in NOLA, and they've been flying back and...

      Where to find a decent woman?

      I'd have to agree with friends. They know your personality and your principles. I've found a lot of good relationships in people where originally friends, and then got to know and like much more later. It probably also helps to look somewhere more populated, say, not northern Louisiana.

      LA National Guardsman scores perfect fitness test

      It does take quite a lot of strength to carry 250 lbs. Just think how many pull ups you could do carrying 60% of your bodyweight.
