    Howdy From an Upper-Middle Aged Newbie

    Hello! I recently emigrated from Alexandria VA to southern Anne Arundel County to be closer to my work - that plus I had an oversized empty nest, what with my wife passing away and my daughter's family moving to Richmond (she's an RN).

    So now I'm in a rural area - I traded the night sounds of police and ambulance sirens for crickets. Nice...

    Of course, I had to learn the ways of MD gun laws, which I can now do as a widower (the Mrs. would NEVER have allowed guns in the house). Got my HQL and bought an H&K VP9 which I enjoy thoroughly; it's an ambidextrous handgun, good for my lefty-ness. Next up will be a revolver, perhaps the Charter Arms Southpaw.

    I go to MSAR in Upper Marlboro - good place. So, nice meeting you!

    I wouldn't call it a rant as much as the truth. Lived in South Carroll 30 years now. While mostly not Randallstown, you can see the bad influence spreading.
