I just heard today that Bob Kern and his son are dividing up to show at both DSC and TTHA to cover all the bases that weekend. That should tell you something.

Yes that IS Big news!

Will there be cake?

 

[Ontario Hunter]

Sorry, I can't make it which I'm sure will upset everyone greatly (don't slip in the puddle of tears). Can I have Skip-the-Dishes drop by?

Try to enjoy yourselves without me.

What's the point of posting that? That's a rhetorical question...there is no point in posting it.

Funny… we were just talking about that today…

Considering Juniors Cheesecake bites for a dessert…

For those unfamiliar with US restaurants, Juniors in New York is considered by many to be the best cheesecake on the planet…

Which will make you a diabetic in a heartbeat

I just saw the vendor list for TTHA Dallas. Lots of folks who regularly show at DSC. Not the same size as DSC, no "gun" area but the rest of the floor is full. The seminars however look awful. DSC really screwed up. It will be interesting if they can get back in KBH convention center once they leave Atlanta. I did not see Europe outfitters, so I will be most likely passing. Lots of Africa outfitters are on the list Dave you should have a good turn out.

Thats no gun area in ATL this year or in the upcoming TTHA Dallas show?

TTHA map shows that they are not using the area where DSC normally has the guns.

More cool stuff continues to get added to the door prize pile!

Thank you @Mark Biggerstaff for arranging a Streamlight Waypoint 400 for our giveaway!

This is the same rechargeable floodlight used at Bos en Dal for nighttime needs... built like a tank and bright like the sun.. Streamlight makes some extremely good stuff (FWIW I carried surefire and streamlight products exclusively during my LEO and MIL days... they're bombproof.. and mdwest proof products )...

Looks like ya'll are having a snowy welcome for us. We are heading south and were hoping for a bit better weather. We can handle the snow alright, just don't like ice. A bit uneasy about the TX drivers on the snow. See ya'll on Sat nite or at the show Friday or Saturday.
We are not far from the Marriot and can hook up with anyone on Thurs or Friday nites to chat and have a drink.

and another shout out and thank you to @Mark Biggerstaff and @R&M Firearms ...
we have a $150 gift certificate for R&M that we'll be giving away as a door prize!

I really wanted to go this year. But with the cold weather and sorry road conditions for a five hour drive, I’m gonna have to pass. Bummer.

Keep watching the weather… some channels are backtracking now saying rain on Thursday and MAYBE some limited snow on Friday… all clear by Saturday…
