Weird, I figured with a lot of you being old guys who shoot guns, drink beer, and wear cowboy boots that there’d be more Xbox users.

I started the Glasspar Boat Owners Association more than 20 years ago and used to run the website. Then everyone decided that Facebook was a better option, so membership dropped and finally I closed the site 2 years ago. I'm still a fan of Glasspar boats and will keep the username until I die.

Started with Okie in the military for obvious reasons and when I was riding motorcycles I was on a couple of forums where Okie was already taken so... Okierider.....

I got mine from my CLEET Custody Control/Defensive Tactics instructor John Boren, way back in 1990.

Mine was the last class to qualify with revolvers. Semi-autos were showing up on more and more cop's hips and the Glock was starting to gain in popularity.

John Boren's favorite saying, was that if your in a tussle with a bad guy and he's winning... If you can't knock em down, Glock em down.

I went through John's instructor school about 1985. He wore me out. Tylenol and horse liniment.

In the early 90's OSU had a basketball player named Bryant Reeves who was from the huge metropolis of Gans, Ok. He was nicknamed Big Country by his teammates. We used CB's at work, and apparently coworkers thought I looked and/or sounded country so they gave me the moniker little country.

CBs, the original internet! Do know someone who uses his SW radio call sign for internet forums.
