They're back? When did they leave? I ran the range for the Canada National Modern Pentathlon Championships, a couple of the classes shot on Laser Targets. Might I say what a pain in the a$$, these system are nowhere near ready for prime time. Almost half of the targets we couldn't get to work. Then I noticed that the hit lights on the barrel do not always correspond to the hit lights on the target. Which one is correct?

Then to top it off the poor gun handling that the lasers are fostering is pretty appalling.

A man was hit by a cab in the street. He was brought to the hospital. His wife who was standing up by his bed, said to the

doctor: "I think that he is very ill." "I am afraid that he is dead."said the doctor,Hearing this, the man moved his head and

said: "I'm not dead. I'm still alive." "Be quiet, "said the wife. "the doctor knows better than you!"
Just then a voice called from outside the door, "If you do, I won't go."
