I’ve always carried a pen for as long as I can remember. Ink mostly but a pencil carry too for cold wet note taking. Never a tactical pen, but did have a Rotring ballpoint metal barrel was too slim and the ink had a poor ballpoint that skipped. Why EDC writing instrument? Its quicker to jot...

My passport expired 2-3 years now so couple months ago I sent in for a renewal. Sent them a copy of my picture which was taken from around the same period before the PP expired, 2010 or so. They rejected the photo and sent back the check - I guess the expected me to “age” better… or worse? Maybe...

Never was a big fan, had a buddy that was and on vacation we’d ritually stop in one of those JB chain bars for a s-load of margarita. Caught on with the music as it became synonymous with our annual guys-gone-wild vacation season. We all have our parrot-head moments when we hear those songs...

DJT was not wrong when he said ‘they’re coming for your guns’. Nobody has to look closely or sift for answers to what’s going on, the process is Demoralization > Destabilization > Crisis > Normalization. It’s no secret what they’re the goal is and these are deliberate rule changes based on...

I had my AT&T Uverse dvr box fizzle out which had quite a few noir classics stored on it just for the summer Noir Alley hiatus, lost hours of recordings when I got the new box. But… I did however fill the void with a variety of other classics and a well appreciated encore of Alicia Malone here...

Who are these relatives you speak of. Name names. We want names. (Fade in music… Beach Baby, First Class - 1974) “Do you remember back in old LA, When everybody drove a chevrolet, Whatever happened to the boy next door, Suntanned, crewcut, all-american male?“ But wait, what about… -...

Listening to one of my favorite podcasts today, Dan Bongino went off on these new gun grabbing, made up rules being crafted to screw with law abiding citizens. He mentions that included in these new rules is a clause for violations (and confiscation) anyone that transfers to relatives or...

I’m interested seeing how it compares to the Sub2000, +100 yds. I’m not fond of how the extra mags stowed in the stock looks, but serves a good purpose than having them loose. And now with the base Subs being $290 now, wonder if and when SA will come out with a similar folding configuration...

My dentist had a sign in the office that read… “Only brush the teeth you want to keep“

#8 - not listening to old timers and using random, general home remedies. Had a range instructor continually discourage the use of wd40 and any over oiling, He couldn’t say enough about excessive oils on handguns. One peeve was the too much oil might seep and find its way into the cartridge...

I was watching Wheeler Dealers couple weeks ago. Mike Brewer had taken a worn out dash facade to some hydro place and had it dipped for a nice looking simulated wood finish. Cool process I never knew existed.

Can’t recall what the company system was, likely some late DOS or Win. that was slow, and for me not friendly. I just never “got it”. Never was big into computer tech but the new tech revamp they brought in Windows (98?) which was basic and rather easy. When I converted to iOS 20 yrs ago &...

Who else remembers their first screen saver, after midnight, on the Philco...

By the time I got used to Microsoft they all said switch to Apple for the cool factor. It was also around the same time I had just figured out how to rewind a cassette tape with a pencil.

Florida migrant caught in Mississippi? Or maybe he just got a jump on the evacuation. https://nypost.com/2023/08/28/later-gator-record-shattering-800-pound-nightmare-material-alligator-caught-in-mississippi/

Understand our new mayor was a public skool teacher, so he’s real smart and more smarter than 89% of the city Law Dept scholarship lawyers, so he probably had to draft the suit himself. Did the mayor mention the TikToK Kia boys? Oh no he didn’t. That would be demonizing. Basically All talk...

I usually use the “AA reader” icon and it gets around the paywall. Sorry - here’s a more better’ link and very reliable resource: https://cwbchicago.com/2023/08/gunfire-that-injured-2-sox-fans-likely-originated-inside-ballpark-chicago-police.html

“Out in the West Texas town of El Paso. I fell in love with a Mexican girl. Nighttime would find me in Rosa's Cantina. Music would play and Feleena would whirl….” From the Hannibal Lecter ‘You’re So Close to the Way You’re Going Catching Him‘ School of Criminology, this breaking news just in…...

They (Weather and Climate Change Channel) should stick to reporting the weather and not the politics. I got $5 that JC will make a mention of climate change at least once every cutaway segment he’s on the air when the storm really picks up.

That’s what I’m saying. It doesn’t seem plausible that a fired slug has no striation markings or even a crimp mark? I wonder if this slug is now part of actual evidence recovered or some spectator picking it up for the purpose of taking a selfie. Oh, and get this - some “teacher” spectators...
