They merely copied Dio....

I hadn't seen that one before.

I do think the Killswitch Engage one was funnier, though the cheesyness level was about the same.

We start talking about guns and gun safety as soon as they can possibly grasp the concept. The older ones haven't shown much interest in shooting, but at 9 and 11, I think they're old enough to learn how to handle a gun and do target practice with supervision, if they wanted. We keep the rifles locked up 24/7, but they've watched DH clean them. Neither of them seem much interested, though.

that's sort of how I handled it. Since I am shooting daily around 5 or 6ish is when kev first took interest. Other than target practice he is uninterested in guns and has learned there are some that just plain hurt to shoot. He won't mess with my shotguns or handguns, as he's learned that they hurt his frame. I was curious though, cuz he's worked his way to his own .22, pellet gun and co2 pistol at 11 years old. by 12 I am hoping to give him a 20 gauge for his birthday.

We started gun safety with the boys as soon as they could understand as well. DS#1 started target practice with the .22 when he was 9, and shot his first deer last year at 10 (we have a DNR program here for that).

Gotta keep those sirens working. Never know when you might get a tornado in a blizzard.

Hey Orchidbritches! Did everyone hear about the national emergency test that is going to happen on November 9? It's weird. http://www.wtvm.com/story/15722687/national-emergency-alert-system-test-on-nov-9

I heard something about it on the radio the other morning while I was getting ready for work, but since it wasn't funny nor did it involve animals I didn't pay any attention.

That would do it.

When I was a child, I've only seen my mother cry once and that was at the funeral of a family friend who died in his mid-30's from cancer. It was scary to see her cry. I've never forgotten that moment.
