And since it's Sunday, and you're probably getting annoyed at me, well, here's just a couple scriptures to support my behavior:

Luke 11 5-8
Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose you have a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread; a friend of mine on a journey has come to me, and I have no food to offer him.’ And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is already locked, and my children and I are in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything.’ I tell you, even though he will not get up and give you the bread because of friendship, yet because of your shameless audacity he will surely get up and give you as much as you need.

 and

Luke 18 1-5
Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. He said: “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared what people thought. And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, ‘Grant me justice against my adversary.’

“For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, ‘Even though I don’t fear God or care what people think, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won’t eventually come and attack me!’”

See? Being annoying is biblical! So change your links!

Viva la Resistance!

Just saying no to Google's descent into evil!

Thought for the day

I don't know what kind of black magic they put in the stuff, but I swear that BG44K fuel cleaner gets the job done.

Oh, and also, I am no longer buying the cheap gas at that particular station.

And I hope the bad gas is all my problem is...

Thought for the evening

Just say "No" to gin and coke. Please.

Another Random Picture

This one is a screen capture from somewhere, but my brother sent it to me:

Honestly, that would be pretty awesome.  Some of those quips just write themselves...

.22 Bleg

So I am trying to decide what I want to save my pennies for--or use the tax return for, more likely, as a BAG-day gun. I know I want it to be a .22, but I can't decide. So here's the

What I want most is tied between a Ruger Single 6 or a lever action .22 of some sort (probably a Henry since I've wanted one of those since before I even had any guns!).  It's kind of funny to me that all the guns I really wanted before I started into this hobby were the old style single and lever actions, but when I actually got going everything I bought turned out to be more of the blacktical stuff... but I digress.

However, what I really ought to get, if anything, is more of a pocket .22, because lugging the Buckmark around to dispatch varmints in the trap is more difficult (and conspicuous) than I would like. On that front I would probably want either one of the new LCR 22's, but then I have an absurd desire to have one of those Taurus PLY's (ugly as sin, but who ever said wants were rational?). However, you all know Taurus' hit or miss reputation, and I know Butch, you really like that Beretta 21 Bobcat (I think it is) that the Taurus is modeled on. But then, looking around on the gun forums (for whatever that's worth, probably just as much as you paid for it), it appears that the newly made Beretta's don't really have a much better reputation than Taurus. (So, Butch, I was wondering what year the one your wife has was made--newer and the forums are blowing smoke like usual, or an older one with presumably "better craftsmanship"?) Now, all that being said, the smart choice would probably be to look for a S&W J frame type .22, since, well, I actually have a J Frame, and I could get some crossover use in terms of training.  But then again, what kind a features do you need on a double action revolver?  The manual of arms is pretty much identical across the board...

And then, all of THAT being said, the really smart choice would probably be to just spend the equivalent amount on 9mm and .308 ammo...

Anyways, that's what's on my mind, and I'd welcome hearing whats on yours.

Only 30 seconds or so, but you should like it:

In case you needed it.

There exists, apparently, a walkthrough for PacMan:

So the next time you find yourself at the arcade, and need to impress someone, memorize it, and triumph.

Just back the pallet up and put it right here...

If you don't get the joke, you weren't raised on old Nintendo games.  Don't feel bad, it's probably a good thing.

But I haven't, so there.



What can I say? I really like things going in slow motion.

Life

My grandpa, who hasn't been to town for maybe nine years (he lives out in the boondocks an hour away in [very small agricultural town]), is coming down today to get a small skin cancer removed at St. [Big Town] Hospital.  I guess spending half your life on a tractor and the other half on the country mail route will get you that.  Hopefully it all goes well and he gets to see how much town has changed since the last time he visited.

Facepalm is right

I'm not sure that I really consider myself a "Libertarian," but I think this picture is still applicable:

I don't know about anyone else, but I've been in facepalm mode for a loooooong time.

On the Tube

Watched that "Full Metal Jousting" show last night, because Netflix wasn't cooperating for me to watch a random documentary about some WWII battle, which is my usual entertainment. Have to say, I was actually mildly entertained. There must be something about big mean guys dressing in 100 lbs of metal and running into each other over and over with polearms that keeps me interested.

An applicable song

Yes, it's a love song!

Ummm...

I'm pretty sure this isn't a real sport...



...but the way some of those british things go, I'd guess there's still a 10% chance it is.
