You know, after having done long-distance relationships for the past five-six years, give or take a little (both with my previous girlfriend and now with my wife), I have started to develop one hell of a sizeable dislike for airports. I love flying… I honestly do. I like going places …
So, I have to admit, those stupid little five-dollar tool kits from WalMart make all the difference in the world. As a child, I was only able to make use of the tools, knives, and implements I could scrounge up around my mother’s kitchen (and that she would allow me …
… and is damned proud of it. Ok, I have to admit, I firmly believe this “Net Authority” website is a hoax of the finest nature (the varieties that are easily believed because they are just so damned believable). But on the off chance that it is, in …
So I do not actually have any pictures of the flames, but what I do have are some semi-decent pictures of the smoke: This last one was taken of San Miguel Mountain after the fires, though while there was still smoke/ash in the air. There still is today, and I …
Ladies and gentlemen, here are the open trackback posts found on my weblog. These are your chances to spread some of your better work, get it out to potentially a different crowd, and, if nothing else, get more links to your writings and weblog. Feel free to ping this post, …
Here’s how it is. Starting sometime on Sunday morning, fires started lighting all around San Diego, mostly centering around Witch Creek and Harris, and then spreading rapidly from there. Augmented by the wonderful Santa Ana winds, those fires just took off, and by Sunday afternoon, most of San Diego was …
Far be it for me to ask potential atheists and agnostics to pray, but if all of you could take a moment and hope that Better Half and I do not have to evacuate, we would take it as a kindness. We can see the glow of the fires over …

Even after I wiped all of my old MT2.x and 3.x templates and installed the newfangled 4.x templates (look at this shitty thing), they are still all jacked up with the columns and crap. HELP!…
If anyone can help me with the bleeding columns on my webpage, I would do… er… something for you. Gratuitous linkage or something. I have gone thorugh the code twice, ran it through two separate validators, and I still cannot figure out what is wrong with it. By way of …
So Better Half and I are going to go shooting sometime later next week, out at the Carrizo Creek Range nearby. Last time I tried introducing her to the shooting sport, it was at a relatively small indoor range, that was quite crowded the day we went, and the noise …
Tomorrow, Better Half and I have a little apartment-work scheduled, one item of which will be hanging a curtain. Yeah, I know, it must look rather strange for me having been living in my current apartment for quite a few months now without something to block off my windows effectively, …
Well, what with all the advertisements, news coverage, debates, and all the rest, one cannot help but to know that the national Presidential election is coming up about this time next year. One of the things that always amused me about elections as a child, though, are the massive amounts …
A few days back, I asked for suggestions concerning the possible/probable addition of a red-dot/holographic scope to my new M1A. The first response I received was from Brass:
I sucked it up and payed the money for an EOTech, haven’t regretted that choice in the least. I went through Night
So after reading all of the nonsensical laws coming out of Kalifornistan over the weekend, the first thought running through my mind was “I need a drink.” … Well, not really, especially considering how little I actually drink on a daily basis, but it does sound good. Either way, it …
Otherwise known as the Governor of Kalifornistsan, Arnold Schwarzenegger decided yesterday to demonstrate a level of ignorance and stupidity that may be difficult for his future successors to beat. You all remember California Assembly Bill 1471 – the bill that would, starting January 2010, require all semiautomatic (but only…

“The essential characteristic of Western civilization that distinguishes it from the arrested and petrified civilizations of the East was and is its concern for freedom from the state. The history of the West, from the age of the Greek polis down to the present-day resistance to socialism, is essentially the history of the fight for liberty against the encroachments of the officeholders.” by Ludwig von Mises
