    ... but you'll never be as cool as the guy from Turkey at the pistol event at the Olympics, wearing no special glasses, ear protection, with both eyes open, his hand in his pocket...

    ...and winning a silver medal.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Turkey has a healthy firearms industry. Some of their weapons are so-so, but some are very good.

      I hope he was using a home-grown pistol.

                  If you watched... he actually hits a number of 10-pt "bullseye" shots in a row as others are failing around him. It was incredible. Sadly he hit an "8 pointer" on his last shot where a 9 or 10 would've won him gold.

                  And further... have you seen the size of the actual targets? I believe they are 10m (30ft) away, and a diameter of 17cm (6") with the center 10-pt ring less than a 11.5mm (less than half of an inch).
