Chaim here. You may have seen me at TFL and THR and I am the Chaim that started Taurus Talk as well. I figured I'd drop by, but you may not see much of me outside school breaks and an occasional weekend post. I'm a second year teacher so there really isn't such a thing as free time (50-60 hours a week, plus classes I have to take, pretty much leaves time for just an occasional meal and 4 or 5 hours of sleep a night). Anyway, I haven't had enough time to put into my site lately, but I did want to say 'hello'. You'll probably see more of me in about a month (Thanksgiving Break) then again during Winter Break. Well, I should get back to my lesson planning since I have to be up for the day in about 6 hours :'( (though I'll probably stupidly browse a little first).

Welcome aboard!! I understand (very well ) the minimum sleep deal!! It's a rare, rare day I ever get 8 straight.

Yeah, today is even worse than normal too. I was rear-ended this afternoon- it was raining, and some woman in the car behind me slammed into my car (I was stopping at a light, she didn't seem to even slow down). Now my back is in absolute pain and I can't sleep (despite a handful of Advil)- I can't wait until tomorrow and filling my painkiller and muscle relaxer prescriptions.


As for a proper gun board introduction:

I am a proud owner of a couple Taurus handguns:
Taurus 85CH (I love it)
Taurus PT140 Millennium Pro (same)

I've had (also good guns):
Taurus 82 (first handgun that I stupidly sold when I bought my first .357mag)
Taurus 605 (sold because I didn't like .357mag in a small snub)

But I'm also a fan of several other brands and styles (without a full list), especially S&W revolvers, 1911s, and SIGs (and of course- lever rifles, my favorite).
