Ed_B, we'll start calling you the "Lone Ranger", his calling card was a silver bullet as I recollect! "Who was that masked man?" "Hiyo Silver,away!" I think I am showing my age!
LOL! Not bad, Hock. I've been called worse!

I watched a lot of that show on TV, which was new to our family back then... with a small round B&W screen at that!
Actually, I liked Tonto too. He was a pretty cool guy. He got into trouble sometimes but TLR was there to pull him back out of it... in the nick of time, of course.

Ed_B,your 41 magnum reference got me to thinking about a metaphorical silver bullet(the public owning and trading in silver)being the death knell to the corrupt currency system we now have.Silver will be the"honest money"that kills all the corrupt demons and creatures in our monetary system. Interestingly,they are finding one of the qualities silver has is it fights infection,maybe that applies both literally and figuratively!
Indeed so. Perhaps silver IS the cure for the common currency? lol
I have some eye-drops that are great for eye infections. I checked the label and it is a very dilute silver sulfate solution. It works really well too, especially if an infection is coming on and I can nip it in the bud with a couple of drops of this stuff. As effective as it is, it is also inexpensive. A small dropper bottle costs about $10 and lasts for years. Unlike a lot of organic antiseptics, this does not seem to deteriorate with time.
As to the .41... yes, it is my favorite handgun. It shoots flat, shoots far, is accurate, hits hard, and is still controllable... unlike the .44 mag I have.
