Thats my favorite excuse for my wife.

And for him to grumble??? I hope if you're not at that company anymore, and you left on your own terms...Not just because of the "gun" thing, but just that it doesn't appear to be condusive to your personality and personal beliefs, which I figure you are way above the curve at that place...

I still work there. I'm slowly working on the boss. I'm taking him and his daughter shooting this week, actually. I think there's a gun owner in him just waiting to come out, once he learns that if he touches one, he won't automatically become an evil mass murderer, and the gun won't blow up in his hands or anything.

EDIT: Since I grew up an Anti, from an anti family, I have a lot of experience with them. I've found most Anti's arent staunchly anti-gun, they are just ignorant, and a little afraid of guns. Once they get some exposure, 95% of the time their attitudes do a 180. I know mine did about 10 years ago, when I first was exposed to a real, live, gun and shot it for the first time.

He grumbled about it.
