Over the weekend we learned from one Mr. Joe Biden that an AK-47 is not able to protect us from a tyrannical government. According to him, there is just no way a rifle could possibly defeat an F-15 armed with Hellfire missiles which apparently he will be willing to use against the American people, all … Continue reading And I Bring you Fire… and F-15’s
Mixing Uppers and Lowers
Last week a story was printed about a man in California who had been "illegally" selling AR-15's getting off the legal hook because prosecuting him would have jeopardized the current laws around said rifles. Now it was a little difficult to divine what exactly happened as the authors of most of the related stories have … Continue reading Mixing Uppers and Lowers
Skywang Skywang, Do Not Answer
Truly, a national tragedy So I guess the mystery behind this amazing sky art has been solved. Okay "mystery" might be a little strong of a word, we all knew what happened. We gave a couple young, military minded men a multi million dollar jet fighter and they had some fun with it. Color me … Continue reading Skywang Skywang, Do Not Answer
Playing dress up
Yeah, you don't look like Doctor Evil at all Bill. Does anyone else wonder why Bill Nye dresses like a Neo-fascist dictator all of a sudden? Talks like one too, how odd... Oh wait, no it isn't. He dreams of a Neo-fascistic future for our country where we are all ruled over by, presumably, him. … Continue reading Playing dress up
Ladies and Gentlemen
Life is full of choices. In fact it could be argued that life is nothing but a string of choices and the results of those choices leading to yet more… choices. I’m lousy at making decisions, but it’s a reality of life and we all have to live with it. Everyday you make judgment calls … Continue reading Ladies and Gentlemen
Southern Hospitality
So a couple weeks ago I drove from my home in Colorado to see my grandfather in Southern Oklahoma. It was a lovely trip with perfect weather the whole way, but I had one bizarre experience in Texas. I had left Raton, New Mexico on the morning of my second day and was enjoying my … Continue reading Southern Hospitality
Why You Should Love Metal
I really like heavy metal music, and now I'm going to convince you to like it as well. Okay I probably won't be able to do that but I'm going to at least give it a shot. First off, let's define what metal is: It's anything a metal musician says it is. Clear as mud, … Continue reading Why You Should Love Metal
On Words and Meaning
So we all heard about that lady getting ejected from a public hearing after getting spotted sending a text alluding to shooting some of the opposition. “If I had a gun, I'd blow away Sampson and a large group of NRA” is the quote. Clumsy grammar aside it's a pretty grisly thought, but are we … Continue reading On Words and Meaning
Persona Non Grata
I'm really bored of talking about the weather. Unfortunately it's the only thing I'm allowed to talk about with anyone I know anymore, I don't get to take part in interesting conversations. You see the problem is that I don't hate the right people, which makes me... hateful. Confusing, I know. It's actually rather amusing, … Continue reading Persona Non Grata
An Ode to my Honda
Who else hates CVT transmissions? We just got a new company car at my work, a 2019 Honda Fit, and it's a really nice budget car aside from that miserable transmission. I admit I'm pretty biased out the gate, I don't like automatics in general except for a few applications, but man the new tech … Continue reading An Ode to my Honda
