Many references to the Shot Show on several threads, no reason to start another, Bump.

Taking orders, three weeks out.

New Thread For Each Year
New thread started. It's something of a tradition to give each SHOT its own thread. A lot happens before, during, and after, that warrants the dedicated bandwidth.
__________________
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C)

Tatonka316 and I will be assisting Freedom Hunters again, book and pen sales for the SOWF. I can watch a booth for a spell if one needs a break or attend a meeting somewhere.
I'm considering renting a room for those traveling on limited budgets. One can always throw a bed roll down behind the sofa.
Hot showers, food, coolers, etc.
