Hi All:

Long time lurker here at CC but also at FR and CU, I joined after not being able to access the website today and started to get jittery without my daily fix.  

My first act as a new member was to make a donation to CC and to let the moderators and owner know that I have appreciated their efforts and that I am serious about becoming a contributing member here.

A little about myself.
 1. Life member of the NRA.
 2. Life member of GOA.
 3. I am a huge fan of Sig Arms.
 4. 67 Rover name refers to the 1967 Series IIA Air portable Land Rover that I own and love.
 5. I am an Electro/Optic Engineer by trade going on 25 years now.
 6. I live behind enemy lines in Massachusetts (Ugh) but I also have a place to escape on weekends in N.H.
 7. I am a conservative not a Republican.
 8. My favorite forum here and at CU is Best/Worst.

Any questions you may have just ask me.

Thanks for the opportunity!

Thanks Frank.

 I already feel as though I know you as I have been lurking from the start and I also remember you at the CU.

Thank you, sir, but ooops, that's bad.

I haven't changed since then.

Curious, who did you vote for in last state election?

Brown over Marsha and Perry over Cadillac Deval.  Not much of a choice here in Mass.  :mad:

You mean Baker?    Perry lost to Keating.   

There are only moderates in MA as that is the only Republican that would get elected here.     I am in MA also.   

Welcome!

Yes you are correct, I did mean Baker although I keep thinking Perry was the stronger of the three candidates despite the incident when he was an officer.
