Jeff’s Back

Alphecca is back up and running again.

Who Wouldn’t

I’d rather have Ann Coulter supine with her toes curling than have Helen Thomas in that position. Who wouldn’t?

Point Blank Range

There is some talk about point blank range going around. I’m not going to go into a discussion of definitions, everyone I talk to has seems to have their own. That said I’m going to briefly talk about sighting in range, specifically what range should you sight in a weapon.
Pistols: All [...]

Free Advice

I was talking to an old friend about the problems I’ve had with my adoptive children from China. One day my television and DVD player along with all my DVDs went missing. I found them at a pawn shop and from the owner I learned it was my oldest son that had taken [...]

Blogspot Bloggered?

Earlier today I couldn’t get my own blog now I’m having a hard time getting blogspot blogs. What gives?

I’ve Been Busy

The Cragfont Gala is a yearly event. It’s an outdoor formal dinner party to raise money for a 200+ year old house in Sumner county, Cragfont. It always takes place in August with drinks followed by dinner under a tent. I think they have it in August to give us some appreciation [...]

Global Warning

Global warming is a train out to flatten your tearful grandchild - unless we do something about the increased energy output of the sun.

That’s My Flight

On the 4th (September) I’ll be on flight 112, debarking at Shannon airport.

A New York man was arrested yesterday on charges that he conspired to support a terrorist group by providing U.S. residents with access to Hezbollah’s satellite channel, al-Manar.
I think this is a B.S. charge and violates his First Amendment rights. By this standard the .gov should arrest anyone who provides “U.S. residents with access [...]

Quote of the Day

If Bill Clinton was the first Black President, then Jimmy Carter was the first Woman President.
Found at Alphapatriot.
UPDATE. A museum even has a bust him as a woman.

Box O’ Truth 29

Box of truth #29, kevlar helmets. All I can say is even with a kevlar helmet on I still don’t want to be shot in the head with a .357.

Glock

Josh the South Park Pundit is contemplating the purchase of a Glock pistol.
Head on over and convince him a)that Glocks are useless pieces of tupperware and make the baby JMB cry. b) that Glocks are simply what St. Gaston says, “perfection.” c) of any other strongly held belief.

Fake Video

All your fakes are belong to us.

Example of Bane’s Law

“If I had not had a firearm, the odds are very likely that a physical confrontation would have happened. There would have been a fight, they would have attacked me, and since I am a black belt, I probably would have had to kill two of them with my bare hands; but instead I had [...]

It’s a Start

Radley Balko shows us some good news. It’s a start.

The city of San Jose has agreed to pay members of the Hells Angels $800,000 for the several pet dogs needlessly slaughtered during SWAT raids.

Nashville is Gearing Up

NewsChannel 5 has introduced the first news helicopter to the Nashville market. That means we are primed for live car chase video. I can hardly wait.

This’ll Make Some People Madd

A Highway Patrolman waited outside a popular bar, hoping for a bust.
At closing time everyone come out and he spotted his potential quarry. The man was so obviously inebriated that he could barely walk. He stumbled around the parking lot for a few minutes, looking for his car.
After trying his keys on five other [...]

If you save loose change in a piggy-bank.
If you doubt whether it’s politically correct to stone rape victims.
If you believe that the earth is round.
If you think there’s something weird about a 50 year old man marrying a six year old girl.
If you object to being a second class citizen in your own country.
If you [...]

Airgun Moderators

Wonder if those are legal?

The subject of airgun silencers is hotly debated on the airgun forums. There is no agreement about the legality of silencers on airguns in the U.S., and the issue is far more complex than it seems at first.

Seen in Traffic

HAVING BEEN irritated for ages by those “Baby on Board” labels you see on cars (What am I supposed to do? Decide not to crash into you?), this week I came across a people carrier with a sticker reading “Princess on Board” in its rear window.
I steered well clear of that one, assuming that the [...]
