Hey Harry,

It's me agian, and unfortuantely, still no great words of wisdom to share - If I had 'em, believe me, I'd spread 'em around.

On the less deep, more practical side - I have to admit, my first thought when I wrote you last time was in the same vein as what bob & noa said...

You scared me a bit with the 12 guage comment, and I really wanted to say "Harry, you don't need one of those around the house - none of us do... but especially those of us who fight these kinds of battles" (NO pun intended! - believe it or not)

I don't mean to be an alarmist, but I think bob's right, ice cream is a much, MUCH better idea!

You're obviously an adult, and gonna do whaterver you want, w/respect to the gun, but personally, I wish you'd trade it in for several gallons - I'd recommend custard though, it's richer, and worse for you, but I like the taste better (and I think you will too)...

Honestly Harry, I hope you'll think about it seriously. If not ice cream or custard, go w/cd's, or whatever...

All kidding aside, we don't mean to meddle and tell you what to do, but then again, I guess we do. Believe it or not, it's not an anti-NRA plot, we just care about you!

I hope I don't sound too glib - it's late, and past my bedtime, but honestly... seriously, I hope you'll think about it.

If you've got as diverse a bunch of guys as bob, noa and me thinking along the same lines, there might actually be something to it.

Hope I don't sound too goofy, Harry, like I said - it's way past my bedtime, but I hope you'll think about what we've said... If you want to compromise, skip what bob said about the napalm - keep that, but ditch the 12 gauge.
