Mrs Rembrandt and I were in Kansas City to catch a flight, decided to stop at Cabela's for a couple of hours. Left her in the womens clothing department while I checked out the gun library. While kneeling down looking at some nicely engraved SAA Colts, someone grabbed me by the ear and began pulling..."come on dear...it's time to go". Other connoisseurs of fine firearms began snickering as I was led out like a misbehaved child...women can be so cruel. [B)]

    They were snickering because they have probably been through the same thing as well.

    Just 2 hours to spend in Cabelas? Thats cruel and unusual punishment.
    I love that gun library, it's fun knowing that those guns could be bought if you only had the money. I live about 40 miles west of K.C. Cabelas.

    Rembradt. and throw that Rolles in reverse. IF my wife gets in a bookstore.. forget it. Get the wallet out and think about the firearm you could have had.

    I'd have been whining and stomping my feet like a spoiled brat.The ear pulling would have been appropriate.

    That is a nice library. I really enjoyed all of the mounts that were in the store. That besides seeing family that was the highlight of my recent trip to Independence, MO. That store is bigger than the Bass Pro shops in Lawerenceville, GA and Concord Mills, NC.

    Why can't they understand this is a illness we can not control. We need help, Not physical abuse.

    A fine Colt would do wonders for you're over all heath. I really think the HMOS should foot the bill for at least four guns a year.

    Rembrandt - Those Cabela's gun libraries do cast a spell. Did it kinda make you want to let her have the ear, while you stayed at the library? (And Cabela's offers a useful safari vest that lends itself to concealed carry in several of its many pockets. I've been going through 2 safari vests a year, what with wallet, check book, pens, flashlight, extra glasses ...yup, better than a knapsack. It's worth the "witticism," "Duh ...goin' fishin'?")

    It wasn't the pain of being drug out by my ear that hurt as much as the giggles from everyone in the library....gave the appearance that I don't wear the pants in the family...excuse me while I go stoke up my chainsaw and lift weights...

    Only cover I can figure, if a woman's pulling you by the ear, is something like, "Alright, honey, you see how easily I can push you with one ear, so pay attention to me in the future."
