aiding and abetting criminals

“Gun control” activists are willing accessories before the fact.
What am I trying to say with that sentence? Well, consider the world around you. There are always going to be predators in this world, whether they bear more of a resemblance to the mountain lions that occasionally pick off…

that time of the year again

What with Christmas, Hanukkah, and the rest of the gift-giving holidays coming up around the corner, I thought I would take the opportunity to remind all of you, my readers, of the various products being offered at my CafePress Store, The Philosophy of Firefly.

it ain’t that hard

Ok, I admit – I am not exactly the most vocal Second-Amendment-rights activist, neither am I the most intelligent person, neither am I the most versed in Constitutional legalities, interpretations, considerations, and nuances. To put it simply, I tend to be a man of rather shallow thoughts, and literal interpretations…

green for a price

Far be it for me to be a tree-hugging nancy, spouting off nonsense and gibberish about the impending end of the world due to global warming, or whatever the new cause celebre may be. That said, when shiny new technologies show up that also, coincidentally, help out the environment, I…

blame the spammers

For the longest time, this weblog did not receive anything except the occasional trackback spam… unfortunately, over the almost-two-years of its existence, that “occasional” has increased to “basically minute-by-minute”, and comment spam has thrown itself into the arena as well. There is nothing I can really do about the trackback…

Being Taxed into Oblivion V.1

I have been doing a lot of thinking about CRV lately. In California we have container deposit legislation called California Redemption Value which is basically an incentive to recycle, and to a lesser extent, not to litter. Customers are required to pay $.05 cents for glass, plastic and aluminum containers…

PSA

Somewhere in comments of one of Kevin Bakers posts in the last month or so he mentioned washing your hands after shooting to avoid lead poisoning. This alarmed me because it was something that I should have been aware of, but had never occurred to me before. I don

remember the armistice for the veterans

In Flanders Field
Captain John D. McCrae

IN FLANDERS FIELDS the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

I do not know what it is about this movie, but no matter how many times I watch it, no matter how upset or depressed I am at the beginning of it, and now matter how much…

Noteable Quote

I have been busy as all in the office today and one thing kept creeping into my tired brain:
“Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price…

took them long enough

For all of their meaningless, holier-than-thou posturing over saving the Internet from all that is evil and mean in the world, those Net Authority folks surely are damnably slow. I submitted my site over a week ago, and they just now got around to adding

Happy anniversary babe. Here is to many more!

Please allow me to introduce myself:

Linoge has been nice enough to allow me some time polluting his fine blog with my kooky ideas and aimless ramblings, so I figured the least I could do is give you an idea of who I am.
Born and raised in Southern California has done nothing if not…

Been sitting on this for a spell, but I figured I would go ahead and post it up, just for the fun of it.

too funny

Did anyone notice how in “Transformers“, the evil police car of doom (a.k.a. “Barricade”) had “to punish and enslave” written upon its flank? One almost has to wonder, considering this day and age, if that saying was not stolen from some “enforcement agency” somewhere….
