We're (in)famous

Thanks Cityview, from me and about 5k other people for publishing the carry holder's names. Nice. I've noticed a ton of blogs talking about it too. I'm not sure if it really matters, now the Register will feel all silly and second to the table and stuff when they do it.

Well, I make own <*> at home.

Guess this is step 1.


Look out zombies, I'm waiting....
for more parts.

It's a hobby, I figure.

For shame......

First rule of going to the gun range- bring enough ammo to fill 1 hour of time. This is about the first time I walked out with 'zero' rounds for what I wanted to shoot. I was even sitting there going- dumbass, WTF are you going to put in your carry piece. I wasn't totally out- the Anaconda was biting as hard as usual with the Hogue grip and the right hand shooting glove was missing from my range kit. I laid off after 10 rounds of 300 grain to avoid the backstrap grooves in my palm. I must say the LCP was a hoot. Wish it locked back after the final shot, but at least I don't flinch with it.
 Even the AR ran like a top. The suspect pmag worked great, not one FTF thru 2 full mags. Ran it wet. And my  groups were about were they should be, even though the 25 yard target holders were broken. My pet peeve- no holders at 5 or 7 yards for the pistols, broken holders at 25 to zero the AR. Time to join Ikes, I guess.

When you've lost Karl Rove......

Hell, if Karl Rove doesn't like The Donald, that makes Trump THE MAN in my book. Getting marked by 0's staff on Sunday and Bush II's hatchet man on Friday. Do they think he is Sara Palin or something?

Not Romney(D) is a good start. I may switch from no pref to R this time just to hang at a caucus site and see what kind of D crossover stuff happens. Not that Romney (D) is dumb enough to waste 5 seconds in Iowa after McCain (D) used that tactic in '08. Hey, New Hampster, focusing on losers who ignore Iowa gives you a sucky candidate. Buy some bandwidth and read other states birdcage liners once in a while.

Not that I don't have my doubts about Trump, but they are in areas
A: I don't frigging care about
B: That's what the Iowa circus caucus is all about
Get these ladies 'n gents out with the people to see if their stories stay the same. At least he didn't let Willie Horton pardon a serial executioner because he bought some BS reform story. Huck will have fun with that one at some point. I know that any mention of his name on a cop blog invites quite a few comments.

Holy crap- does he ever rest?

The first thing I thought of when I heard Johnny Mac also does firearms training was this....

Too bad there is no application for that in IA. I guess it is legal in TX for hog hunting (There I go again).

I cannot believe some of the Google results that popped up while searching for this. Not about him, but about what other people search for using KCCI+<insert random personality here> + <state of dress> as a search term. Creepy.

Yep, I'm blog dumping today- internet no worky sux.

Edit: SO says- you mean he can teach me how to use this thing? Yes  I don't what courses he teaches, though.

Less habanero = slightly less hot

Fresh pot of chili. I think I have my fast and dirty chili down. Stock must be bought in the Rotel diced tomatoes and habanero mix.
1 lb pork + 1 lb beef browned  with applejuice and 3 tbl spoons chili powder (off brand, out of chili 9k)
Onion powder 1 tbl spoon (normally one big yellow onion)
No jalapeno - too lazy this time, normally 3 peppers cut up.
2 cans chili beans
1 can Rotel diced tomatoes with habanero
1 can Diced tomatoes with onion and pepper (left over)
2 tbl spoon chili powder in pot.
15 oz can tomato sauce - I just like that way, may not be needed.
My 3 hour crock pot sample is not hot enough to need a kleenex or make Pepsi TB taste like cinnamon. That was the last batch with 2 cans of Rotel plus 4 large jalapenos. I'm trying for something that has a kick even reheated at work.
Next time venison and pork.

Intermittent internet

I knew not voting for Algore would bite me in the butt. Guess I get to play the 8 to 12 game waiting for a tech to see what's wrong. Woo hoo.
 Here I thought it was watching Grey's on Hulu that killed it. Hell, Callie had to be brought back- does that make her a zombie? People on IMBD seem to think the whole episode needs to be put down for the count. Karev's lampshade was awesome- "She works at Seattle Grace Mercy, she'll either go crazy, get cancer, get shot by a gunman or hit by a truck, so don't get your hopes up." Yeah, I'm really current with my TV. Give me a break, other than sports and Sponge freaking Bob, it's all I bother watching. Oh, and NBC's crap reality on Sunday. Can't explain why on that one.

I don't know what is worse

That I look at sit and read hog hunting threads for hours or that this is stuck in my head the whole time.

I prefer the old version myself. 'What's in the bag? I can't read!!!!!!'

Shutdown FTW.... Huh, what?

Crap. I had this all MS painted and everything.















I spent minutes fooling with that. Now I need to find a donkey kicking an elephant in the........nevermind.
ETA...
Lol. I have a cable channel to run and it might screw with my ratings.

Failure of a second post

I was all set to post about my awesome zombie not killing skilz in DR2 when I found out my SO deleted the pic of the proof. Ending S, 0 zombies killed. 65 survivors, if you believe it. That should be an achievement. Bloop, You played the game for 8 hours straight and didn't kill one zombie. Candy ass CURE member.

The second hardest part was the ass on the bike that had the crush on you. Took some hits until the tool thinned out the herd. After that, I could open up on him with a decent weapon. Hardest of all was just not going, oh, look, a zombie, face smash. Damn, now I have to reload. It was like breaking conditioning. Honestly, were they not needed to kill the survivors psychos, I would love to do a full run with no weapons once.

My survivor crew was awesome, they looked like the poster for Sucker Punch w/o the mecha bunny.

Fail upwards

One of these days I will have this down. Using the failtop does not help. Or it is my router.
