Meh. Never terribly fond of watermellons myself. How about just a normal melon?
So air pistol, rifle, trap, and skeet? Not a bad showing for a game intended to promote world peace .
Of course, the thing that disqualifies me from being a Type A is that I am remarkably laid back person, unless I get really riled up. Tend to avoid conflicts, avoid making decisions, etc. etc. Type A.5?
And that is exactly why I figure that “gun thieves” would be a better moniker than “gun controllers”. Of course, then you get a little confusion between those people, and criminal thieves… eh, they both fit in the same category.
As for chess, I would wager that no one plays it any more simply because it is hard. Our society does not like hard. Gotta love it, eh?

PS. Why doesn’t anyone learn how to play chess anymore? Now there’s a game! What does that have to do with anything? It is another form of therapy that demands complete SILENCE.

I must object to shooting out the watermelon. I’d rather eat it! lol. I found a site I think you might like: Olympics: Shooting. I was also good archery.
That’s cute. That means you are a type A, like me. I am listening to the radio, checking to see if I have any more trackbacks I need to add to the front page, adding your site to sidebar, watching tv (yes, sometimes I do both at the same time), thinking of my next post, going through my email, calling Congress, rounding up cats and that’s on a slow day! lol. You have that mouth problem, too? If only I could learn NOT to tell the truth so often…lol.
I used to shoot pool for my ‘therapy’. It’s amazing how many rude people there are that have no idea about the rules of this wonderful game.
Hmm, gun thieves? I like it! We worked for the money. We paid taxes on that money. We paid for the gun(s), and they want to STEAL THEM? OUT OF MY COLD DEAD HANDS? Not a chance.
Plurally yours,
Rosemary
PS. Have a great day.
