Dead...Some how I pinched a nerve in my right elbow. Deadened the forearm and hand. I wear a brace mostly at night now and it is getting better, slowly. The doc said it may take two months to get back to normal. Oh well, I am getting old so it just goes with the territory I suppose.<br />Hope that you and yours are well. I know what it is like to be short on electricity. I've lived through a few big hurricanes in the last 13+ years. Katrina and Rita were the worst and we had no power for some days. I did buy a generator before Katrina hit so we were a bit prepared.<br />Thanks for asking, I just guess that old age is telling me something. Unfortunately, it and I do not speak the same language......LOL. <br />Take care of yourself. I always enjoy your work here. Very informative or entertaining. If I ever win the lottery, I'd like to get your work published as I am sure others who have not found your web site would enjoy your work also.charlie ehlenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05584863034307604847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826101215822428783.post-23620228743260250452014-05-06T19:11:06.731+05:302014-05-06T19:11:06.731+05:30Hope your hand's better, Charlie.

Neve...Bill, excellent story and a damn good lesson. Never leave a person with no way out. Never, ever put a person into a position where they have nothing left to lose.<br />Also, having survived numerous firefights in Vietnam, what lasts on the clock, just a few minutes CAN in fact seem like it lasted much, much longer. They may not change magazines in the movies, I still remember the old 1950's TV Westerns where the good guys AND the bad guys had six shooters that seemed to have an auto-reload feature as they never, ever reloaded after six shots, they fired many times six without the need to eject spent shell casings and reload each chamber in their revolvers. Yeah, a six shooter that shot 20 - 30 times without reloading. Amazing tech back in the late 1800's. <br />Movies are fantasy, real war, well, you Do reload when the magazine is empty. Been there too many times in real war.<br />Once again, excellent story and NO, I'd not want to be on the bad side of this lady, ever.charlie ehlenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05584863034307604847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826101215822428783.post-69631791432022013282014-05-05T15:40:15.007+05:302014-05-05T15:40:15.007+05:30. . the real meaning of a 'freedom fighter'.... . the real meaning of a 'freedom fighter'!Alanhttp://archersofokcular.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826101215822428783.post-37443470977000301832014-05-05T09:29:50.458+05:302014-05-05T09:29:50.458+05:30Wow, Bill.

A great story, all the better because it is true. Fabulous.<br /><br />As a very minor side point, having been trained in the use of firearms, I find that the way they are depicted in the movies and on TV is ludicrous. <br /><br />benni https://www.blogger.com/profile/09942386013237815777noreply@blogger.com
