What I was doing was applying a deliberate exaggeration in an attempt for a touch of humor. I guess I "failed" in my attempt.<br /><br />Neither of the guns on the table is particularly valuable, Kaya, but as years pass and they become ever more rare, the intrinsic value rises and they become more treasured by their owners. This rifle was only made by Fabrique Nationale in 1950, for instance, and the pistol for a few years in the 1970s. They both are increasingly desirable among men like me.<br /><br />Yes, everyone should have a handgun or two, in my opinion, know how to use them and be mentally prepared to use them if necessary. I am not certain off the top of my head what Utah laws are concerning handguns, but all you would have to do is find a gun shop, walk in and inquire.<br /><br />Yes, White Bear is a fine companion.<br /><br />Although in a general sense I might not seem to be such a person myself, I agree with you about style and elegance. In Poland, for instance, the average people on the street were both more interesting and more attractive to look at than are typical Americans because of a somewhat more stylish manner of dressing over there.<br /><br />To be blunt about it, I think too many Americans dress like pig farmers on their way to do their chores. I do not mean dirty, but simply sloppy, messy, with no appreciation of or concern about the image they project. <br /><br />In America, I also think wearing what is in style has replaced wearing stylish clothing. A vivid example of that is when someone chooses to wear trousers, slacks, jeans, (whatever) so large that underwear and more is the view they leave behind. Just as a person is what he eats, so, too, is he what he wears. Most of the habits my mother gave me were good ones.<br /><br />I am glad you liked the words and the music today.Fram Actualhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01540773153894050197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8989613902205547683.post-46708002975269035772010-09-28T19:53:26.725+02:002010-09-28T19:53:26.725+02:00It seems that lately I am always in a hurry.

I like the pistol and definitely would like to have one similar to your pistol even not knowing how to shoot. Just in case....<br /><br /> White Teddy Bear is for sure your boy, your friend and companion, he is so relaxed among your guns. <br /><br />I read about shopping and liked your story very much. I didn't get why you called your mother ruthless.... <br /><br />About style. I love style and elegance. When I immigrated to US it took for me almost 5 years to use to casual American style. I am ok with it right now but not completely. Once flying to Paris a few years ago I had a conversation with a French girl. She looked sarcastically at my sneakers (worn only for a flight to Paris and comfort) and said that I live by habit. When I asked her what does it mean she simply explain that wearing casual clothes and shoes all the time is to live by habit. This is French attitude toward style and elegance. Or just one person attitude. <br /><br />Anyway, I enjoyed reading this post a lot.Kayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15586230889058400189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8989613902205547683.post-34245827123693891902010-09-28T18:00:03.288+02:002010-09-28T18:00:03.288+02:00I am certain that my memory of these shopping trip...I am certain that my memory of these shopping trips include more of the elements which made me unhappy than those which pleased me, Mag, and the boundaries grew as I entered school and moved up a grade or two. Even before I was eight or nine, we would do my clothing shopping first, and then I would be cut loose to run free for two or three hours until it was time meet her for a meal or to head for home. I think most mothers who have only one child have a tendency to keep the leash short.<br /><br />I am certain you will make a fine mother when you decide the time is right, and have many happy shopping trips with your children.<br /><br />Yes, White Bear is becoming quite an independent young man. There is no need to worry about him.Fram Actualhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01540773153894050197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8989613902205547683.post-3822407796753094052010-09-28T16:28:23.824+02:002010-09-28T16:28:23.824+02:00Oh, Frammy, what a big guy now White Bear is!

I wish I could be a Mom, like your Mother was, in this regard, to my kids. Girls would like it for sure, and a boy could learn a bit about fashion, too, it wouldn't hurt him at all, from my (mom's) point of view :-)Magda Machnickahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09085981524180271107noreply@blogger.com
