“The right to punch ends at the other person’s nose”. This is a common saying among us freedom-loving types. And I get it. It’s succinct and demonstrates the principle well. But I’ve always had a problem with it. Doesn’t that imply that my right to block ends at your arm? Or that I am […]

Kickstarter?!!
I just for the first time in my life pledged money to a Kickstarter project. I am still in shock about doing that, but this product is unique and looks to be an incredibly well-executed work of art. Ian McCollum maintains the “Forgotten Weapons” website. He knows his weaponry. He and two other folks got […]

Leaving National Review
I decided to finally cancel my subscription to National Review. Below is the letter I sent to them requesting my cancellation. I also worked in Customer Service jobs enough to know he will never look at this. Chances are this will get passed around by a few entry level reps who will get a good […]

Flashpoint
It’s been about six weeks since the Parkland Incident and since then, I’ve tried to encourage honest, constructive dialog on the subject of firearm ownership. I’m not going to do that anymore. I’m done trying to persuade. I’m eulogizing, now. It has become increasingly apparent to me, that the anti-gunners are not interested in civility […]

Ilhan Omar
We found out yesterday that IIhan Omar spoke on diversity at an MN middle school, not far from us, on April 26th. It was very disturbing, to say the least. These young people, ages 11-13 are very impressionable which makes …in our mind… foisting a talk on diversity from someone such as Iihan.unconsionable.We have grandkids […]

Nice image from Mars
This is just a really artistic image and I had to share it here. I didn’t take it, unfortunately, as I didn’t have the opportunity. But NASA’s Opportunity did and whipped out its camera to look back over its shoulder at a Martian dust devil chasing it through the valley below. The view looks back […]
Tomorrow’s launch has been postponed to no earlier than Friday at 3:11 a.m. EDT (0711 GMT). A problem with an electrical distribution system on the space station cut one of the two redundant power supplies to the robotic arm. NASA rules require both to be available for any operation, such as docking, that might require […]
I usually write this sort of thing, but I would be hard put to put it better than this astute vlogger. I have been told it is my age or my conservative stand that causes me to see civil war coming, but Tim Pool is half my age, and a Democrat…

Amerika
This is not the country I grew up in. In America, people of good conscience could argue and fight, debate and disagree, sometimes vociferously, and still remain friends. Here in Amerika, things are different. In Amerika, the robust free exchange of ideas between rugged individuals has been replaced by the bleating conformity of the herd. […]
