No not the debate. Jack Daniel’s whiskey is being watered down!
If you’ve noticed that your Jack Daniel’s is carrying a little less kick these days, you’re probably right.
The famed “sippin’ whiskey,” which advertises a recipe traced back to the nation’s first registered distillery, has lowered the alcohol content of its flagship brand, Old No.7 Black [...]

The sequence goes one, two, three, four, and a five thrown in for good measure. That’s getting the job done.

Pollen from a genetically modified grass has blown on the wind and pollinated other grasses up to 21 kilometres away, says a new study. This distance is �much further than previously measured�, say the authors, and is thought to be a record for any GM pollen.

Jeff at Alphecca has his “Weekly Check” up
He found another nabob nattering about treating guns like cars and registering them. Ya know I’d take the nabob up on it.
As with an automobile I could walk into any gun dealer and as long as I could afford it I’d drive away with an “assault [...]
Kerry aides parody candidate’s manner of speaking
In a spot on parody of Kerry’s speech the candidate’s aides filled out a questionnaire during a private gigglefest. Reportedly several aids were ROTFLMAO after writing:’”My favorite gun is the M-16 that saved my life and that of my crew in Vietnam, I don’t own one of those [...]
If your Instalanched and your servers aren’t there to feed it how do you count the extra hits?
Update: Less than 1/2 hour later I was able to get through.
Jeff Soyer our friend at Alphecca has suffered a loss.
Drop by his “nicer blog” to offer your condolences.

Things to do:
Order two stripped AR lowers. - Done.
Decide which uppers to buy.
Thread barrels on existing rifles and buy muzzle brakes.

Things to make anti-gun bigots crazy:
Beta C-Mag. Note - check around there are better prices.

Semiautomatic Assault Weapon Update
By statute, the prohibitions relating to semiautomatic assault weapons and large capacity ammunition feeding devices expired on September 13, 2004. As a result, certain sections of the Gun Control Act, 18 U.S.C. Chapter 44, and its implementing regulations, 27 CFR Part 478, are no longer in effect.
As the so called “Assault Weapon” sunsets into a well deserved retirement it’s now time to remember the good it’s done.
Before the ban we had a surfeit of “wonder-nine” offerings. Shooting magazines featured the high(normal) capacity “flavor of the month” pistols on their covers, most gone now. It became boring to pick up [...]
Michael Crichtons’ speech “Why Speculate?”:
Media carries with it a credibility that is totally undeserved. You have all experienced this, in what I call the Murray Gell-Mann Amnesia effect. (I refer to it by this name because I once discussed it with Murray Gell-Mann, and by dropping a famous name I imply greater importance to myself, [...]
So I leave Tennessee for California just when CBS outfoxes the blogosphere
Dan Rather and his cohorts produce some memos that have been “reproduced” with modern technology. The blogosphere does the legwork for CBS to “produce” the original documents.
With all the pitfalls pointed out forging the “originals” will now be a cinch.
Update: This really [...]
