Cook, The Dick Act, Sotomayor, Obamacare

Here is an update on Major Cook, who was refusing to obey what he perceived to be an illegal deployment order. Since the Military withdrew his deployment order, the defense counsel, i.e. the government, says Cook no longer has "standing" to bring this suit forth. See how this game is played? It's just like a shell game or 3 card monte. Razzle dazzle, where's it at? Hit the moving target if you can. Are they going to do this for all of the Soldiers that have joined in this suit?
To make matter even better the Defense Department has joined in to the protect Maobama party. After the DOD contacted Major Cooks employer he has been FIRED. My goodness, who would have expected that? Gosh and golly! Backdoor attacks by a bunch of Chicago thugs?

Has anyone ever heard of the 1902 Dick Act? Neither have I. This act basically says that since the MILITIA is so vital to the interests of the good ol' US of A and firearms are vital to their role, they cannot be outlawed or banned. Way to go guys! Now, will this ever be brought to attention of the usurpers in Washington DC, those power mad boys and girls of the beltway? Here is another look at the Act. Read about it and ponder the possible results.

Has Sotomayor been telling fibs? Or just outright lies? She says thing publicly for a decade or more then in her hearing for SCOTUS denies their meaning or even denies that she said them. And none of the asshats interviewing her has the stones to call her on this.

We have our "elected representatives" discussing the the Obama Care Bill. If you read it you don't have to go very far (page 16) to find that the bill outlaws private health care. Have any of the "elected representatives" read to page 16 or is it to big read in the time they have to vote on it? A while back Obammy said he would not sign a health care bill that adds to the deficit. The CBO says that the healthcare plan currently under"examination" will certainly add to the deficit. But, the Chairman says that his plan will pass this year anyway.

A friend of mine sent me this information this morning. It seems like the story of the Chosen One is starting to unravel. Check this out it sounds pretty serious.

AP- WASHINGTON D.C. - In a move certain to fuel the debate over Obama's qualifications for the presidency, the group "Americans for Freedom of Information" has Released copies of President Obama's college transcripts from Occidental College . Released today, the transcript indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro, received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an undergraduate at the school. The transcript was released by Occidental College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by the group in the Superior Court of California.The transcript shows that Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation Scholarship program. To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must claim foreign citizenship. This document would seem to provide the smoking gun that many of Obama's detractors have been seeking. Along with the evidence that he was first born in Kenya and there is no record of him ever applying for US citizenship, this is looking pretty grim. The news has created a firestorm at the White House as the release casts increasing doubt about Obama's legitimacy and qualification to serve as president. When reached for comment in London , where he has been in meetings with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Obama smiled but refused comment on the issue. Britain 's Daily Mail has also carried the story in a front-page article titled, "Obama Eligibility Questioned," leading some to speculate that the story may overshadow Economic issues on Obama's first official visit to the U.K. In a related matter, under growing pressure from several groups, Justice Antonin Scalia announced that the Supreme Court agreed on Tuesday to hear arguments concerning Obama's legal eligibility to serve as President in a case brought by Leo Donofrio of New Jersey . This lawsuit claims Obama's dual citizenship disqualified him from serving as president. Donofrio's case is just one of 18 suits brought by citizens demanding proof of Obama's citizenship or qualification to serve as president. Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation has released the results of their investigation of Obama's campaign spending. This study estimates that Obama has spent upwards of $950,000 in campaign funds in the past year with eleven law firms in 12 states for legal resources to block disclosure of any of his personal records. Mr. Kreep indicated that the investigation is still ongoing but that the final report will be provided to the U.S. Attorney general, Eric Holder. Mr. Holder has refused to comment on the matter.

Show me the ...birth certificate!

A US Army Reserve Major gearing up for deployment to Afghanistan said he was not able to follow that order as the Army is working under a false President due to the birth certificate issue. In response to his claim of illegality the Army rescinded his orders. Now what does that say? There are many other soldiers following his lead in this matter. We'll see how far this suit gets.

The real bitch is that Republicans are joining the lefties in the attack. The good news is that her PAC is raising bucks...730,000 up to this point.

Several years ago I bought a Smith and Wesson Model 36. Ostensibly for my wife I have shot it more than she has. But it's "her" pistol. The Chiefs Special was introduced at the 1950 International Association of Chiefs of Police Convention in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Chambered in 38 Special it had a 5 shot cylinder and was available with 2 and 3 inch barrel lengths and is reportedly approved for +P loads. The new gun was an improvement of the I framed Terrier. Police, military and civilians bought the new pistol in untold numbers and the buying frenzy continues to this day. In 1957 Smith and Wesson moved to the number system for their handguns so the Chiefs Special became the Model 36. These guns are attractive, light and for their size accurate. They also fit in a pocket or purse very nicely.

Tea Party

We attended the Tea Party hosted at Kearney Missouri yesterday. The Minuteman Civil Defense Corps was on site and featured a couple of speakers. Other speakers included a civic leader in Kearney, a Representative from Congressman Sam Graves office, a fired up retired Marine, as well as citizens from every walk of life. When the featured speakers were done the organizer's let anyone that had something to say take the stage to make their point. One of the neatest things I saw was the number of young people there between the ages of 14 and 21. There were a couple of teenagers that really had their act together.

I did a quick count at one point and came up with 149 in attendance but the number fluctuated from a low of about 120 to a high of 180. That not to shabby considering the weather was like the government...oppressive. Mid to high 90's along with the same numbers in humidity. The crowd started out in the open area in front of the stage but quickly took possession of any shade that could be found. The overall consensus was...less government, less tax, less control. The central theme seemed to be a return to a Constitutional Republic. Do yourself a favor and try to attend a Tea Party when one comes to your area. Support our Constitution and your right to free speech. Here are a few pictures of the event.

One very pointed comment was made by a speaker. Congressman Graves could not make it to the event but sent a staffer who read a letter from Graves. As soon as the letter was read the staffer left, post haste. The comment the speaker made was... That's what's wrong with Government, they tell you what you want to hear then run away. The crowd wholeheartedly agreed with his comment. At least the staffer could have stayed for a half hour or so to hear some more of the speakers and take that info back to the Congressman.

Changes

That job I have been speaking of...it's no longer a job. A parting of the ways had to come and it did this morning. It's one of those things that you would have preferred not to happen but when it did you breathed a sigh of relief.
__________________________________

Since I won't be working tomorrow morning I will be able attend the Tea Party in Kearney Missouri. It is being sponsored by the Mid America chapter of the the Minuteman Civil Defense Corp. There's to be a host of speakers lined up for the day. I really wanted to go to this and now it's possible. More to come.

As a younger man I would have called him on it the first time and done what needed to be done. Now I have taken this treatment 3 times. Because it is a job.

Ron Pauls bill (HR1207) to audit the Federal Reserve got a Senate bill (S604) for the same thing started. When it got attached to another bill being voted on it was thrown out because it was legislating on an appropriations bill. Senator DeMint pointed out that there are several audits called for in that appropriations bill. The Senate leadership agreed and still threw it out. What senator is getting supplemental income from the Federal Reserve? The Fed is run by a bunch a private banks. Obamas to largest contributors were from Goldman Sachs. Is there a link in that?The USG wants to know every cent we make so they can tax us to their will and if they suspect we are not playing by their rules they will audit us from the inside out. Now we want to audit one of their biggest tools and they are going to prevent it. Wake up folks! WTF is going on here? They mortgage our lives and the lives of our children and grand children for generations to come for a "bailout" and the banker seems to have misplaced 15 or so billion and refuses to answer any questions about where ANY of the money went. The longer they can stall this action the longer they get to cook the books. I know of a few good trees. Who's got the rope?

All of the above is just another reason for all Americans to fight for a return to a constitutional government. Get a copy of the Constitution and make yourself familiar with what the government is allowed to do and not to do. Make sure that it is being taught in your kids schools. Make sure that your local and state officials know what their rights are and what the government is not allowed to do. 99 percent of what the government does is specifically delegated to the States. Which makes their actions illegal.

My Day Off

My day off. Roll out of bed early, feeling all my old sports and fights injuries pounding through my body. Watch the news until I can't tolerate all the democratic crap then stretch, get dressed and make a killer breakfast of hot sausage and egg taquitos with onions, cheese and the ubiquitous picante sauce. Mow the neighbors yard, spray her poison ivy, mow my own little piece of earth, fix the front door frame so the storm door actually fits in the frame. Made lunch of smoked chicken breast and potato salad left overs. Mess around with the 2 wedge headed shit dispensers and ponder dinner. Hot Damn! I had two beautiful ribeyes that I cut special for me and Cherry Pie. Fire up the grill, wrap a couple of spuds and toss them in. An hour later gently place the offering on the brazier, slip in my own drool. Oh damn they were good! As you can see there is not much by way of news here today as I am having a Breda moment. I can't stand to hear all the stupid shit coming out of the news channels that is being channeled in from the cesspool of Washington DC. Oh yeah, I had the water department out this morning to try and figure out why I have an intermittent loss of water pressure. They are going to vent a few of the mains and come back on Monday and check the pressure again at the meter. If that doesn't work I will get to spend an outrageous fortune replacing all the old galvanized pipes in my house with copper. I can hardly wait. At least I can go to work in the morning and get a little rest. I do have one great question though, Does the hardware store sell more, well, hardware if the teenage girl checkers all show a lotta cleavage? I got a hell of a show while I was there this morning along with the "Oh I didn't mean to let you see all that" smile. Damn I hate getting old.
speaking of old, my son will be here in the first part of August along with his lovely bride. They are driving in after she gets back to shore. She is on the Eisenhower. She is not with the ships crew but is with a squadron.
I have to say this, the Dimocrats are going to try anything they can to get the Maobama health manifesto converted into law. I don't have any full coverage health plan, I do have a major medical plan and a knee that needs replacing and I will say for the record, I do not want anything to do with this socialist health mandate they are trying to get in place. I mean if it gets into law where will all the Canadians go to get good health care?

Foreign Patrols?

We all appreciate the police patrolling our neighborhoods, right? Well, FEMA is inviting foreign troops to particicpate in a program where they patrol various US cities and states. Can you believe this? The folks in the states listed should be looking at these guys through a telescopic sight. This is like reading a disaster/doomsday novel. What other kinds of shenanigans can we expect. Is this a hint of what's to come if Barry doesn't get his way? Seriously, this needs to be stopped ASAP. Deliver verbal spankings to the politicritter of your choice.
It's things like this that keep me stocking up on all the right stuff. If you have some shooting buddies that will back you through hell or high water, start some 2-4 man action drills and get proficient at doing your own patrolling. Do you have a local militia? They offer some very good training and they offer some great services to the community. If this is your kind of thing see about joining up. Believe me, Militia is not a dirty word as some folks would have people believe. The one in this area is the Missouri 51st.

While doing this Barry did call Medvedev by the name of Putin. Whoops!

4th activities

Well, I got to work on the 4th of July until 7pm. Then I drove like the hammers of hell to get to my fathers place about 35 miles NE of my work. Arrived just in time to wolf down a semi warm plate of food and commence preparing for my annual fireworks show. When I shoot my fireworks, it is not a haphazard event. I prepare a pictogram with all shots sequencenced and walk it through with my helpers. This year I used the last of the fireworks I had left over from our efforts at selling retail fireworks for 3 years. We had a great show with a splendid finale shot. The crowd loved it as well as the neighbors. And my elected Representative was in attendance. For the finale we had about 111 shots in the air over the course of 45 seconds. There are a few different classifications of fireworks, the most common being 1.3g and 1.4g. I have shot professional pyro in the past for about 3 years but I do get a kick out of doing these small 1.4g type of shows. As a matter of fact I would enjoy doing these for extra dough but folks don't usually know what kind of entertainment is possible from the retail type of fireworks. Then, when you add up the dollars for the material and the cost of the labor it is higher than you would think. If I had to pay retail for the things we shot last night it would have totaled over a grand. So if that was a paying gig I would have had to charge in the area of 1200 or so dollars. For a 10-15 minute production. If I cared to get the official BATFE Pyro Techs permit with fingerprint and backgrounds check I could do a small 1.3g show for the same money with a much bigger bang. But, I would need a much larger area to shoot from. And a firemarshall inspections and all the other bureaucratic crap that goes along with it. Now get this, If I could get someone to purchase a retail type of show using fireworks that anyone can buy and shoot I would have to get a license to do so. A license to add organization to what everyone does every year on the 4th. What a wonderful place this has become.

I hope everyone had a safe and happy evening to celebrate our nations independence.

What's Sarah up to?

On July 26, 2009 the next Goddess of the US will step down as governor of the great state of Alaska. That's right, Sarah is stepping down as the Gov. She is citing at this time that she will no longer cost the state of Alaske money to defend her against all the frivilous lawsuits that have sprung up since the 2009 Presidential election cycle. But... she has also said to tune ito Twitter as she will be providing more info via that means. Could it be? Will she? 2012?
________________________________________

I have asked on several occasions about Barry's actual cititzenship and whether he is actual legally qualified to be sitting at the Presidents desk. This guy has a good idea.

"Very Interesting questions. More questions, and this time some good questions.While I've little interest in getting in the middle of the Obama birth issue, Paul Hollrah over at FSM did so yesterday and believes the issue can be resolved by Obama answering one simple question:What passport did he use when he was shuttling betweenNew York , Jakarta , and Karachi ? So how did a young man who arrived in New York in early June 1981,without the price of a hotel room in his pocket, suddenly come up with the price of a round-the-world trip just a month later?And once he was on a plane, shuttling between New York , Jakarta , andKarachi , what passport was he offering when he passed through Customs and Immigration?The American people not only deserve to have answers to these questions, they must have answers. It makes the debate over Obama's citizenship a rather short and simple one.Q: Did he travel to Pakistan in 1981, at age 20?A : Yes, by his own admission. Q: What passport did he travel under?A: There are only three possibilities.1) He traveled with a U.S. Passport,2) He traveled with a British passport, or3) He traveled with an Indonesia passport.Q: Is it possible that Obama traveled with a U.S. Passport in 1981?A: No. It is not possible.Pakistan was on the U.S. State Department's "no travel" list in 1981.Conclusion: When Obama went to Pakistan in 1981 he was traveling either with a British passport or an Indonesian passport."
What do you think of that?

Talk about letting the cat out of the bag! Barry AKA The Chosen One is letting a passel of potential terrorist come to this country funded by ..............you and me! They will get free air travel, housing assistance and more direct from our pockets. $#%*^%$*&(*(&#*!!!!!

"Whether you are an Obama fan, or not, EVERYONE IN THE U. S. needs to know....

Something happened... H.R. 1388 was passed yesterday, behind our backs
You may want to read about it. It wasn't mentioned on the news... just
went by on the ticker tape at the bottom of the CNN screen.

Obama funds $20M in tax payer dollars to immigrate Hamas Refugees to
the USA. This is the news that didn't make the headlines...

By executive order, President Barack Obama has ordered the expenditure
of $20.3 million in "migration assistance" to the Palestinian refugees
and "conflict victims" in Gaza.
The "presidential determination", which allows hundreds of thousands
of Palestinians with ties to Hamas to resettle in the United States,
was signed on January 27 and appeared in the Federal Register on
February 4.

Few on Capitol Hill, or in 20 the media, took note that the order
provides a free ticket replete with housing and food allowances to
individuals who have displayed their overwhelming support to the
Islamic Resistance Movement
(Hamas) in the parliamentary election of January 2006.

Let's review....itemized list of some of Barack Obama's most recent
actions since his inauguration:

His first call to any head of state, as president, was to Mahmoud
Abbas, leader of Fatah party in the Palestinian territory.

His first one-on-one television interview with any news organization
was with Al Arabia television.

His first executive order was to fund/facilitate abortion(s) not just
here within the U. S., but within the world, using U. S. tax payer
funds.

He ordered Guantanamo Bay closed and all military trials of detainees halted.

He ordered overseas CIA interrogation centers closed.

He withdrew all charges against the masterminds behind the USS Cole
and the "terror attack" on 9/11.

Now we learn that he is allowing hundreds of thousands of Palestinian
refuges to move to, and live in, the US at American taxpayer expense."

How come we never heard anything about this piece of crap? What is this guy trying to do to this country?

Lotsa Junk

We all know that some people want to do away with guns. Some folks are even scared to travel with them, fearing some leftist search and seizure routine. I regularly carry in my personal autos and due to Missouri's CCW law I can even do it concealed with out a permit. Since I quit flying when they decided to treat average Americans as the enemy, I have no experience with air travel and guns. This guy does.

This is my favorite holiday. Independence Day. All it means, all it can mean and all it has meant. I view the awesome displays as re-creations of the battles that bought our freedoms. The next time you witness an fireworks display, think of it as echos of cannon and musket fire from the past. And remember that it may all come to pass again. If you think that it takes special people to fight a revolution, well you may be right. That is if by special you mean farmers, mechanics, lawyers and such. Because that's what the signers of the Declaration of Independence were. Common people who gave up everything to state their convictions. Would you do the same?

FINALLY! I got to shoot the XD 45 today. Not bad at all. I do need to work on my trigger finger placement as I'm pulling to the left. I don't have this problem with a 1911, but then I've been shooting those for 20 years or so. It's just a matter of practice. I was shooting at 7, 10 and 15 yards and turning in 2 to 2.5 inch groups nicely centered but to the left. I will look at my finger placement on the trigger and then, if needed, the front sight will be adjusted. Nothing but good times. Just what I needed with all the bs coming from DC, Minnesota, the courts and the world.
A little .45 inch therapy. And by the way,with 13 round magazines, a box goes by awful fast.

I just read that the Royal Canadian Mint is missing 15.3 million in GOLD. A recent audit concluded that it is not a paperwork error but that the physical inventory is a liiiitle short. The RCMP is investigating of course. How do you miss 15 million walking out the door? 17,500 troy ounces are not accounted for. They claim that it could have been lost in the refining process. I guess anything is possible.

I guess it really is a comedy act now. I'm referring to the Senate, now that Al Franken is movin' on up. So now the funny act is...the senate is locked up by the dimocrats. My mind is blank. All I can think is now Maobama can do any thing he wants to us. Anything. I'm done.

guns, coup, crooks, guns again and the promise

Why have gun sales gone up? This article presents an interesting view from a group not usually heard from...the cops. It seems that the cops have the same fears that a lot of regular folks do. Fear of government, fear of seizure, fear of anarchy. Yes the ones that are supposed to "serve and protect" are hoarding firearms, ammo and supplies like a bunch of crazed squirrels putting away nuts for the winter. Maybe those of you who haven't started this process should start now. Think of it as a fire extinguisher. No one questions you about the fire extinguisher in the garage, car, boat or kitchen. It just prudent precaution. Why should a supply of food and supplies be looked at any different?

There has been a coup in Honduras. The president decided he would re-write the constitution and the supreme court told him he couldn't, that the power to do so was in the hands of the peoples representatives. He ignored them. The Attorney general told him to cease his actions. He ignored that warning. The general of the army came to him and told him to cease or he would be arrested. He fired the general. The attorney general, acting on direction from the supreme court, had the army arrest the corrupt president and sent in to exile. The socialist leaders of the world are condemning these legal, constitutional actions. Chavez, Castro, Ortega, Hillary Clinton, and yes, Barrack Hussein Obama, the One Sitting in the Presidents Chair are all crying foul over these moves. I get the feeling they're all afraid that it could happen in their countries next.

I still haven't shot the new gun yet. All sorts of shooty goodness still awaits. Maybe this Sunday. I may even spring for a box or two of new ammo to avoid dipping into the reserve stocks. I do have the laser aligned with the iron sights now I just need to actually fire it to get the thing dialed in. The light/laser combo will ride it during the evening hours as the bedside companion to the 12 gauge 590. I will be paying close attention to the ammo prices and availability at the next couple of gun shows. I am still shocked at some of the prices I am seeing in catalogs such as Cheaper Than Dirt. 7.62x51 at a dollar a pop for fmj? F***M*W***A S****! (that's my sooper secrit cussology phrase whose meaning can only be determined by contacting me). A friggin' dollar a shot! I need to dust off the press and prepare to gag on the prices for reloading materials. I am still socking away the available 22 long rifle like it's going out of style. Good for shooting, good for trading. In really bad time it's as good as cash, mebbe.

What happened to that constitutional promise of a republican form of government? Read this for a good point of view.

RINO's

The House passed the so called global warming bill yesterday. Once again a major piece of legislation was passed without any one reading the damn thing! House minority leader Bohnert used his short time at the podium to read selected passages out loud. Of course the Dimocrats tried to cry foul over that but it was ruled to be legal, but these same Dims tacked on an additional 300 pages of crap to this bill overnight. The vote came out to be 212 v 219. That was tantalizingly close. The real bitch is that 8 Repu...RINO's crossed the aisle and voted for this cap and tax bill. The really good thing that happened was that 40 yes 40 Dems crossed the aisle to vote NO on the bill. Congratulations to them for voting with their mind. I say good because that shows how the Dems are divided on the Maobama program. If this monstrosity passes the Senate shall we all start billing the RINO's that vote or voted for it, the difference in our electric bills? Some say our electric rates may take a 25 to 50 percent rate hike due to this bill if it ever becomes law. In my area we are already looking at a 25 percent increase due to the construction of new power plants or the upgrading of existing power plants. So I could possibly see a 50 to 75 percent rate increase. Hey, does any one remember ol' Maobama say in if you make less than 250 thou you will not see your taxes go up? We are passing a bill that is so overloaded with junk pork that there is no way it will move without every one paying some extra taxes in one form of another. If you are represented by one of the 8 RINO's get in touch with the douche bag and voice your displeasure, on the same note, if you are represented by any of the 40 Democrats that voted against it call them and thank them for this action.

With all the name calling and finger pointing that has been directed towards Sarah Palin since the 2009 Presidential Campaign it was nice to read a decent article about her and her ethics. If she keeps up the public appearances and good work and develops a good base in foreign policy she could be a real contender in 2012. Now if she just had some community organizer skills. HA, HA! And a fake birth certificate. And a bunch of terrorist friends. And a bunch of friends that are walking the legal line. And stuttered and stammered when confronted with an unplanned question. And made an unethical real estate deal. You know where this is going don'tcha?

Things are looking up?

WE are finally hearing from various pie holes in the government that the Economy is finally lookin' up. Where the F are they getting this info from? My sister-in-law works for Butler Transportation and says that in a normal week they bill out about 300,000 bucks. Lately they have had to scrape up 100,000 a week. The ports of Longbeach and LA in California saw a drop of 10 percent in 2008 and expect another 5-7 percent drop in 2009. The Newport News shipping facility is very nearly idle as the product they have in the warehouses are not selling. They are only expecting a few ships between now and October and this is putting many people out of work. Construction is down, housing starts in most places are non-existent and food and fuel prices keep rising. So I ask again, were is the gummit gettin' their info from. Crap! I forgot The Big O has a pet Unicorn that craps magic poop. Kinda like pixie dust but chunkier..

It's there when you need it

When you need a gun, you really need a gun. Don't leave home with out it. You never hear on the news about people successfully defending themselves and others with a firearm. As they say...sight unseen, blah, blah, blaaahhh. People use guns every day to fend off thieves, robbers, rapist, assaults and burglars. Finally a nice piece on this aspect of firearm ownership has been acknowledged. Read on and take pride in the courage and determination of gun owners across the country. Some day you may need to take the same action so practice and learn. There is a lot of good programing on the Outdoor Channel and one of my favorites is The Best Defense. Catch a few episodes on the DVR and practice what you see. It's not the same as personalised training but any thing you can gather as far as skills go, goes a long way. By the way those practice bullets can be in the form of the humble 22 rimfire. Just make sure to get plenty of practice with your main defensive arm so you can develop the muscle memory needed to make sudden accurate shots. 22's are still relatively inexpensive and won't break the bank to get a couple hundred rounds of practice in with. In regard to free video training there are a multitude of gunskill demonstration on You Tube featuring all the top shooters. As I say, when it comes to knowledge...get it where you can. Shoot on, folks!

Is it the heat or the humididty?

Damn it's hot! Today in our area it was 96 degrees with a heat index of about 110. The dock area at the store I work at must have been 90 or more. Thankfully, I stand alone in a 38-40 degree cooler all day. Just me and the meat. We have had a sale on ribeye steaks for $5.99 a lb. I have been cutting like crazy. Tomorrow, the sale on boneless pork chops begins. Ha Ha, It's my day off. I did cut 3 pork loins this afternoon to get them started in the morning. I had no help today so I was doing the stocking of the case every hour, the cutting and packaging and answering any custom orders. One old lady came in and ordered 15 ribeyes. Yes, mam, I will take care of that right now. Just give me a few minutes and I'll have it done. Of course I had already started cutting pork so I had to change gloves, move to a clean table, open a new box of ribeye loins and get to cuttin'. Yaho0!

I sure want to get the new gun out and do a little shootin' but I told my brother I would help him a little with the issue that has arisen. So maybe I can get the new one out next Sunday.

What to say?

It's been a long day with little to no contact with the rest of the human world so I haven't a thing to say. I got home to find I have a house guest who is here because 1, because I told him he could stay as long as needed and 2, a crazy, physco bitch has made it necessary for him to stay with us.
Needless to say, life is working in its weird little ways right now.

Let's see...the North Koreans are threatening to launch a missile toward Hawaii, our Navy is tracking a North Korean ship that may be carrying nuclear material or even rockets and Irans air force is practising maneuvers over the ocean. Now, Al Queda says if they can get their filthy little hands on Pakistan's nukes , we will be on the receiving end of them. When will the USG drag their nuts out of the safe, install them in the correct place and get on with the major ass kicking that 2/3 of the world is asking for. F*&# political correctness, the UN, The IMF and all the other worldwide do gooders. Give 36 hour notice to the jerk off of choice, the then lower the hammer and repeat as needed. We need to have our war material factories running day and night to stock on the good stuff a fight like this will need. The Chosen One seems to prefer to ignore any situation that has presented itself to date in his administration. Don't we have radar avoiding aircraft, supersonic bombers, radar evading cruise missiles, bunker busting bombs and all kinds of other crap to bust a nuke facility or even the power station that it needs?
That all I have to say on it.
