CJ USPSA March 8th 2015 (CANCELED)

[Vlad G 345]

Ok, winter is slowly going away so we are going to try having a match next weekend.

Currently my plan is to run 4 classifiers and 3 real stages to get everyone warmed up and get some folks classification on the books. That does however mean I need 3 stages submitted so if you have ideas for a stage send it me a stage

Obviously, keep an eye on the cjrpc.org for weather related news as we get closer to the match.

And here is the pre-registration form: http://cjuspsa.coffeecup.com/forms/CJ_12082013_Form/

 

Canceled because stupid weather is stupid.

I've got a stage design in my head that is inspired by this effing winter.

 

It's called...."Miracle on Ice." lol

Let me guess.. Shooter pull starting a snow blower with strong hand while holding a shovel in weak hand. Gun unloaded in bucket of salt. 1 procedural for each grain of salt spilled outside the bucket when retrieving gun

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

Still working on how I can integrate Ice Skates into my equipment for the stage.

 

There going to be necessary. lol

I'll remind you that CJ owns a backhoe and acres of land so disposing of the evidence will be trivial after someone brains you with your own skates.

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

After this winter I'd almost welcome it. lol

[Brian B 2]

Six months since I shot! Time to dust off the cobwebs.

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

We shot steel yesterday.

 

First time we've shot anything in 2 months.

 

Didn't do too bad considering it was freezing and my hands don't work well when they get cold.

 

Then it started snowing.

 

Bailed after 4 stages.  

 

I'm so done with winter.

[Vlad G 345]

And my hope for better weather might be stomped out by 1-3" of snow on Thu. Anyone live close by so they can check the pits on Sat so I don't have to drive down there?

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

I think Mikeythumbs lives pretty close, and Br@yn.

 

We can torture them into checking.

Holy crap ! You're still alive ? I thought you got shanked at work or something.

[Mikeythumbs 1]

Ill let you guys know when we get closer to the weekend if I can run over I am only about 15 mins away 

[Vlad G 345]

Thanks Mikey.

[Brian B 2]

Holy crap ! You're still alive ? I thought you got shanked at work or something.

I am still among the living. Can't you tell from all of my activity on the forum. I have been posting like a madman!

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

I'll remind you that CJ owns a backhoe 

Can we get them to use it to clear the pits so we can shoot?

[alec.mc 180]

i vote for non-movement classifier match ! 

 

moving to arizona, this blows. 

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

I'm about ready to give my wife half of everything, cut my losses, and get the hell out of here.

 

I'm done.

 

So done.

[Pizza Bob 1,488]

Soooo, looking out the window this morning, and then perusing the forecast through Sunday, should I even waste my time registering?

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

Was it over when the germans bombed pearl harbor?  NO!

 

It's not over until we say it's over.

 

its over

 

Register, so at least this way you can say you tried. lol

[louu 399]

Lets all get there at 8 and start shoveling

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

Lol.

 

Shovel...

 

So cute.  /gives louu nuggies on his head and tossels his hair/

 

On Sunday the ice was 6 inches thick in spots and the parking lot covered in snow and ice.

 

Didn't see the smaller pits so if those are clear I could see pulling off a bunch of classifier stages.

 

Otherwise we're gonna need a LOT of salt.

[JonF 79]

Oh well, just another day sleeping in with schmoopie.

[Vlad G 345]

Yeah I don't think it is shaping up the way we would want it.

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

Yeah I don't think it is shaping up the way we would want it.

I don't know...Jon's plan sounds good.

 

I mean, sleeping in with my schmoopie.

 

Not his.

 

I mean...I'm sure his is nice.

 

Its just that I've got my own.  Schmoopie.  To sleep in with.  

 

You know.

[Mikeythumbs 1]

Um being i am 15 mins from the range and just blew 6-8 inches of snow i would have to say the range is a no go plus its still coming down 

[Brian B 2]

When did everyone become so soft? 19 years ago we would shoot in the snow and just call it a lost brass match!

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

We've shot in the snow before.  Vlad remembers. lol

 

Makes scoring impossible and breaking down the match a pain in the ass,  Plus, yes...lost brass.

 

It's not fun, and for me at least, once the hands get cold and I lose dexterity, it's boarder line not safe.

When we got older and wiser?  I remember seeing one match at CJ and when we got there we debated whose truck thermometer was right -- the one reading 0 degrees Fahrenheit or the ones reading -1 and +1 respectively.

 

Now I would just roll over on a morning like that.....
