A friend of mine called me out to his truck this afternoon and handed me this.  He thought it was a cannon ball but it had no hole for a fuse. The ball is iron and appears to be cast.  It has the number four “4” imprinted on it and a small indentation beside the imprint.  Its about 4 inches in diameter and about 4 pounds. &# [...]

Ok.  I don’t know what is up with Facebook but the “new” look is even more weird than before.  I can never tell whether what I am looking at is accurate, old, or made up. I opened it up this morning and this is what I saw: Click on the graphic to display it full size in a new browser window. So to make sure I am seeing the “freshest” o [...]

RULES FOR KICKING ASS

Dear Civilians, ‘We know that the current state of affairs in our great nation has many civilians up in arms and excited to join the military.  For those of you who can’t join, you can still lend a hand. Here are a few of the areas where we would like your assistance:

1. The next time you see any adults talking (or wearing a hat) during the playing of the National Anthem – kick their ass.

2. When you witness, firsthand, someone burning the American Flag in protest – kick their ass…

3. Regardless of the rank they held while they served, pay the highest amount of respect to all veterans. If you see anyone doing otherwise, quietly pull them aside and explain how these veterans fought for the very freedom they bask in every second. Enlighten them on the many sacrifices these veterans made to make this Nation great. Then hold them down while a disabled veteran kicks their ass…

4. If you were never in the military, DO NOT pretend that you were.. Wearing battle dress uniforms (BDUs) or Jungle Fatigues, telling others that you used to be ‘Special Forces’.  Collecting GI Joe memorabilia might have been okay when you were seven years old, now, it will only make you look stupid and get your ass kicked.

I get so tired of people, mainly the Virginian-Pilot and other media outlets calling this the “gun show loop hole”.  Its not a loop hole.

The bill would have required prospective buyers to undergo an instant criminal background check before buying a firearm from a private seller at a gun show.  -=SOURCE=-

How can the General Assembly write a law that would control the private sale of firearms?  Are they only concerned with the sale while at gun shows?  Come on people.  Private sales are just that.  Private sales. Read the rest of this entry »

I am just speechless. An animal rights group wants organizers of Pennsylvania’s Groundhog Day festival to replace Punxsutawney Phil with a robotic stand-in.  -=SOURCE=- This of course isn’t the most outlandish stunt PETA has done.  In fact this doesn’t even rate as being a stunt.  Simply a statement of preference. But come on. [...]

Ok.  This stuff is really making my head hurt.  Now some folks are saying that all the work to help replenish the ozone layer is contributing to “global warming”. OZONE HOLE’S HEALING MIGHT SWELL WARMING By Sindya N. Bhanoo The New York Times That the hole in the Earth’s ozone layer is slowly mending is considered a big victory for enviro [...]

Yeah it is. Obama administration this month awarded a $25 million federal contract for work in Afghanistan to a company owned by a Democratic campaign contributor without entertaining competitive bids -=SOURCE=- nepotism – favoritism shown to relatives or close friends by those with power or influence Obama said in 2008: “I will finally [...]
