Well I'll be back in Pullman the 19th or 20th, and I know Dave the Welder should be there around that time as well. We'll figure something out.

Just shattered strongside elbow and wrist riding my bike on Chipman. I'd like to meet up with everyone but may have to do so unarmed...

Somebody finally got it. "That makes me a Sad Panda" is a line that me and my buddies use alot and because I am so cautious on COD4 they nicknamed me Shy Panda. I'm glad to see that someone finally brought it full circle and reincarnated the original Sad Panda.
Or should I go by "Sexual Harassment Panda"?

Don't worry, I got it a long time back. I just never said anything... wouldn't want to have to send you to the Island of Misfit Mascots.

So I have some actual OC news to put on here for once. I have heading over to moscow and around pullman quite often cause there is NOBODY in town yet. Over the course of the last week I have on several occasions gone into (Pullman) Dismores, Ace hardware, Shopko, Safeway, HHP (my rentors who are screwing me), Bookie 2, Tokyo Seoul, Taco Time, and Crimson and Grey; all of which I have had no problems. When I went into Crimson and Grey there was a Whitman County Sheirffs car parked outside so was curious to see if today was the day I get confronted by LEO; nope, just walked past and checked up on book prices for the fall (highway robbery... mabey thats why he was there). As for Moscow I frequented Goodwill, Walmart, Hastings, Winco, the Palouse Mall to include Zumies, Hot Topic, several jewelry stores, Macy's?, a poster shop, Buckle, and a few others while trying to find a new watch. No real incidents but a few quasi conversations. When I was in Zumies the female behind the counter was really nice and came and opened up the case even though I said it was unnecessary and another store employee walked up and mentioned a specific watch that he liked and proceeded to ask about my Cobra Commander shirt.
After a brief chat he walked to the back for something and after being stopped by a third employee he walked back up and said "the guy back there just asked if you had a gun, and I told him 'I'm sure he has a permit'" So I told him that you didn't need a permit for either ID or WA as OC was legal.
He was unaware of the fact but seemed cool with it and went on to say "Yeah he said something about you're not going to pay for the watch, you're just gonna pull your gun and take it." I didn't know exactly how to respond other then in a dumbfounded manner with something to the effect of 'Really, like I would do something like that.' He interupted me and basically said that he knows and that the other guy is just sort of like that. I didn't get a watch but they were very good salespeople non-the-less and I suggest shopping there if thats your style.
While at hastings picking up some movies I started to pick up some of the conversation from the couple behind me which I decided not to join in on because the guy seemed to have everything covered so far as I could tell. I didn't get all of it so here is the jist.
F: Is that a gun.
M: Yep
F: Is it loaded
M: See the red dot on the side, that means its ready to go if he wants to.
F: But isn't it safer to have it on, I don't know safe?
M: I think so but it also takes a little bit extra time to take it off.
F: But what if somebody tries to take it.
M: Well I guess that somebody is going to have a pretty bad day then. Cause I'm sure he knows what he's doing.
Again approximation, but it was a really cool conversation. Other than that an extremely uneventful week... jerks.

I don't actually have a revolver yet... I'll have to get on that if I am not to disappoint.

I will be in Pullman for about 2 hours on Friday before I head up to Coeur D Alene for the weekend. I'll be spending all of next week with my girlfriend in Pullman and sometime at my fraternity at U of Idaho before I head off to Air Force Basic.
If we can get anything going during next week I'll be there.

It's a shame it wasn't Army BCT, I just got back from DSS and could use someone to practice on.

Again the basic OC day, hit up the following with no problems; Shopko, Hastings, Walmart, the Palouse Mall.
I also went to Dismores to pick up a six pack of Kokanee Gold and the bagger mentioned something about needing more ammo. It caught my attention but then realized that him and the cashier were having a rubber band fight and he needed more... that is until he noticed my beretta and said "well, i'll bet this guy doesn't need any more ammo." We then conversed about the M9 and his family sponsored military training at the age of 13... . I had places to go so I attempted to end the conversation as politely as possible. He seemed very knowledgeable and quite nice, had no problems with OC obviously.
Today ran into Higgins furnishings? here in pullman and tested out some new beds with a friend who needed help deciding on what she should get. I have a feeling that one of the employees didn't care for my firearm because after he walked up and asked if we needed any help he proceeded to walk to the far side of the store and sit on his fourth point of contact twiddling his thumbs. We were promptly helped by another employee who didnt seem to mind, or notice, at all. I must say despite the massive influx of people which I don't particularly care for, the scenery here in town is getting much better.
I am surprised at how many women don't seem to have a problem with men OCing. Mabey I have just become complacent though.

So I haven't been on in a couple of days and what a great couple of days it has been. Was hanging out with Dave here in Pullman and we ended up having to go down to Dismores to pick up some more drinks for a party so we walk back to the beer cooler and pick up a case of cheep beer. We were passed by two guys as we walked out and we proceeded up to the register to pay for the beverages. The same two guys got behind us in line and the first thing out of their mouths was; "Hey! You guys are open carrying!". Dave and I both look at eachother dumbfounded, which if you know Dave, it doesn't happen very often. We proceded to have a conversation about how unusual it is for us to run across people who even know what OC is and they kept going on how we were awesome because we were standing up for everyone's 2A rights. Dave has the whole thing on tape so hopefully he will be on shortly to provide a better description of the events as the transpired.
In other news, the Palouse mall remains a fun place to OC as does walmart. Ran into Big 5 with no problems, again Safeway here in Pullman. Pizza Perfection doesn't seem to have a problem with it, but I don't think that the girls behind the counter were paying too much attention seeing as they were hitting on myself and the roommate. Some parents of incoming freshman were not to excited to se my beretta, but I think that they were more worried about their sons when we explained that they "would have a really good time their freshman year" at which point our conversation shifted to some of the local bars (at this point we were talking amongst ourselves). If anyone gets a chance to go into the new mongolian grill (Mongolian Fire) the food is amazing and they could care less if you are OCing, I think the only notice they took of it was when we walked in and the glance was all but non existant, and they were more than friendly the whole time we were there. Yet again another wonderful relatively uneventful few OC days.

I need to hurry up and get a holster so I can open carry. I am suprised that I havent seen any of you guys OCing. I have frequented the same places and I bet that we have passed each other and I didnt even notice.

You would be suprised how often people don't even notice when I am wearing a white ARFC jersey. You would think that nothing would stand out more than black on white but I guess not when you are in your own little world. (Not directed at you computerfish)
