When I applied for my CCW the deputy was telling me of all the techno geeks applying for CCW permits. I used to be a System Admin / Architect and got into sales and business development. Majority of my friends are same and everyone has at least one handgun and rifle.

If you browse the posts here you'll see its not just techno-geeks...

We have chemists, pharmacists, physicians, nurses, PhDs, MBAs, attorneys, military men and women, and many many more.

There are alot of well educated and well informed individuals. This is the side of gun ownership that the Anti-Gunners don't want you to see. They want you to think everyone with a handgun is a backwater inbred bucktooth moron with a neo-fascist or overzealous Christian agenda. For the most part that couldn't be farther from the truth.

Yeah, except that I mostly play Sci-Fi or fantasy games, almost nothing with real guns. And I don't have a bow or sword, nor do I have plans to acquire them.

But I'd sure as hell take a shock rifle if I could get one. Lob -- zap -- BOOM!

(For the uneducated philistines among you, that's a weapon from Unreal Tournament, the greatest FPS series ever created.)

Best game ever: the original StarFox on SNES

I don't know how many countless hours I spent on that game as a kid.

I was originally planning on being in sales, but since I got the XD and found this wonderful website, I have decided to take up computer information technology. I want to fit in. That's a joke btw.

I've got a degree in information technology, now if I could just find that elusive job outside of California. So when I'm not looking for work, I'm generally here, or I'm doing both.... I'm highly skilled in mutitasking
