Dead Goblin..

Oh ya, what a way to start off the weekend. I got this from not one, but two different sources. Cleveland's Action News 19

Jessie Buchanan, 19, of Lakewood, walked into a grocery Thursday evening with a gun, demanded money and threatened the five people inside. Nadim Shalamy, 71, of Lakewood, shot the robber in the head, police said.

WOOHOO!! (waiting for clapping to quiet down)

As the Great Chairman Kim DuToit says, "..old age and treachery will beat youth and vigor, every day of the week -- especially when old age and treachery includes gun ownership."

I just wish this hadn't happened one week prior.

DEAD GOBLIN COUNT: 6

One week..

Well, one week to go. Thus begins the REAL Christmas shopping season. Those of us who frantically race around at the last minute trying to find that most coveted of toys. You know, they should make that into a movie. Oh, wait, they DID!

It's Christmas Eve, and Arnold needs to find a Turbo Man action figure, the craze of the season. Only they're sold-out, of course. So the race is on, and Arnold does fierce battle with other shoppers and merchants alike, all for the prize toy with which to purchase his son's affections.

I loved this movie! Went out and bought it, and the "Turbo Man" doll they marketed after the movie! It is now a Christmas tradition, right along with watching 'Alfie' and his Red Ryder BB gun in "A Christmas Story."

Ummm. The Red Ryder BB Gun. OK. It's not particularly Politically Incorrect, but what the hell!

Red Ryder BB Gun Specs:

• ACTION: Lever cocking, spring air
• SIGHTS: Blade and ramp front, adjustable open rear.
• RECEIVER: Stamped metal. Saddle ring with leather thong.
• MUZZLE VELOCITY: 280 fps.

Oh yes, the boy will be graduating up to one this year. It is a special surprise from Santa. It will be stored in our gun safe, and he will take it with us when we go to the range. Gun safety/education starts in the home.

having a friend for lunch...

"I'm having an old friend for lunch.."
Those were the immortal words of Hannibal Lecter..
Now, meet Gumaro de Dios Arias, the newest addition to the Hannibal family.

"He was preparing stews. There was a grill where he was cooking part of the heart and bits he had cut off the body. It was terrible, terrible," said local police chief Martin Estrada, who was among a dozen police who raided the shack.

Anybody want to go get some mexican...food?

Crazy California..

I got this from a forum I am a member of..

Well, it would appear that the residents of the city of San Francisco will have the opportunity to make their streets a safer place. On the next ballot, they will be voting to make handgun ownership by anyone other than a Law Enforcement Officer, Security Guard, or the Military...ILLEGAL! Hurray! Finally! We will have a true test case in the US, in the 21st century, of how gun bans JUST DON"T FUCKING WORK!

SAN FRANCISCO -- City residents will vote next year on a proposed weapons ban that would deny handguns to everyone except law enforcement officers, members of the military and security guards.

If passed next November, residents would have 90 days to give up firearms they keep in their homes or businesses.

OK, so they have tried this in Washington DC. Believing that they were creating this idyllic, utopian society model. That cities all across the US would follow suit in the next decade. All they succeeded in doing was creating a giant victim zone. It tells all the Goblins that EVERYBODY is unarmed, and easy pickins! Washington DC is also the murder capital of the US. That's right. The smallest state in the union, has the highest murder rate per capita.

I just hope the rocket scientists in Olympia don't get any brilliant ideas... I would HATE to have to move again!

Lap Pillow..

What in the Sweet Chocolate Christ will they think of next? A freakin pillow shaped like the lap of a woman?

Lap Pillow, ya right.

One popular item for holiday shoppers is the "lap pillow," with skin-colored polyurethene calves folded under soft thighs -- a comfy cushion for napping, reading or watching television.

Ok, I'll bite. What do people in Japan think of this item?

At stores, lap pillows gather crowds where people poke and pry at the foam legs.

No Shit. Imagine that. They poke and pry and try to undress it. I wonder if it's anatomically correct?

MICHELLE C. I want one. Please email me your Paypal info ASAP!

PIG Pic..

Well, for our PIG pic of the week, I have selected the nemesis of the M1 Garand, the German M48 Mauser.

This battle proven bolt action rifle has seen combat from Russia to North Africa, from France to China. This particular model, the M48, uses the ohhhh-sooo reliable Mauser 98 action, and can be had for the sum of $299. (For that $299, you get EVERYTHING you see. The ammo belt, bayonet, cleaning kit, etc.) It is chambered in 8mm (8x 57js.) I already have the Walther (Mauser-Werke byf43) P-38 to go with it. This would help to complete my collection of WWII firearms!

If you are interested in buying one, go to Mitchell's Mausers. Just leave one for me!

Still No NHL...

I blogged once before on how this NHL lockout is just ridiculous. It would appear that talks have again broken down, and we truly may have no hockey this season.

NHL Players Association Executive Committee President Trevor Linden (C) of the Vancouver Canucks, and committee members Vincent Damphousse (L) of the Colorado Avalanche and Bill Guerin of the Dallas Stars attend a press conference after meeting with NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman at the NHL offices in Toronto, December 14, 2004. The two sides met again to try to resolve the lockout that has wiped out 414 games of the NHL season. REUTERS/Mike Cassese

Yahoo, had this story about how both sides are whiney little bitches, and need to grow up and be happy with the MILLIONS they are getting paid already.

No new meetings have been scheduled, making it quite possible that the NHL will become the first North American sports league to cancel a full season because of a labor dispute.

What the fuck. I think I am gonna be sick. No regular season, no all-stars game, no play-off, no Stanley Cup...

Hey guys, what do you think Lord Stanley would say about how both of you are acting?

Raining Deer..

You heard it said, "It's raining cats and dogs outside!" Well, how about if it's raining deer? That's right, DEER! Check this out!

You will notice there is NO damage to the front of the truck. That's because the deer hit the truck, not the truck hitting the deer.

Raining Deer, The Story
So, our young hero is driving down an interstate highway in rural Minnesota. As he passes under the overpass, a deer falls through the windshield of his new Durango.
WHY? It was finally determined that the deer had been standing on the overpass, as another car crossed it. It scared the deer, and in his attempt to get away, he simply leapt over the side, plummeting down, until he encountered the passing Durango.

HOLY SHIT. I would have pissed my pants. Can you imagine? It's one thing to hit a deer in the road. You see him, he sees you, you both have time to say "Fuck" before the impact. But to have one fall out of space, and through the top of your truck? Jeezzz!

Happy Birthday..

Happy Birthday to me,
Happy Birthday to me,
Happy Birthday Rescue Mike,
Happy Birthday to me!

Yes today is my birthday. I am thirty-muffereruff - COUGH! Well, over thirty. I feel 21, I am in just about the best shape I have ever been in, I have a wonderful family, good friends, I truly am blessed.

So, In honor of MY day, blogging may be a little heavy today. I am going to goof off, and relax, and post some interesting things I have seen. Kinda my present to all of you! ENJOY!

Pin-Up Pic

I'm sitting in bed, watching MASH re-runs (thanks Peaches!) and as they ended, I flip over to the Late, Late Show, and who should greet me but the beautiful Sara Rue!

This 25 year old actress has starred in several sit-coms and movies, including "Can't Hardly wait" and "Pearl Harbor." What more can I say about her, other than "Woof Woof!" Holy smokes! That is a WOMAN! And a redhead to boot! Yes I have seen the topless photos, No, I will not post them here.

A Dangerous Christmas..

Oh, this made me laugh. As a shining example of just how far down the toilet the fucking brits have gone, you must go read THIS!

"Resist the temptation to photocopy parts of your anatomy," RoSPA and the Trades Union Congress (TUC) said. "If the copier breaks, you'll have Christmas with glass in painful places."

"Dancing on desks could do them and you a lot of damage," they said. "Likewise, the boardroom table is meant for weighty documents, not overweight executives."

Candles, flaming Christmas puddings and cigarettes should be avoided at all costs.

What a bunch a freakin moonbats! Although they may have a point about the glass in a painful place, but hey, it's the office Christmas party! This is the time of year you get to paw at that busty secretary in the miniskirt celebrate with your beloved co-workers. I say, throw caution into the wind, and Xerox your ASS!

My Blog..

I recently have had several people at the station asking me, "What is your blog all about?"
That is not a difficult question to answer.. It is about all the things I like and all the things I dislike, and any other amusing tidbits I find in the mean time.

I Like (In no particular order, except the first two):
My Lovely Wife
My Son
America
Freedom
Firefighting
Guns
Search and Rescue
Rock Climbing
Hockey
Beautiful Women (chauvinistic I know)
All Branches of the Military (More Admiration than anything)
Cigars
Single Malt Scotch
Pick Up Trucks
Hunting
Republicans and most Libertarians

Things I Dislike:
Michael "Fat Ass Liar" Moore
Demoncraps
Goblins who prey on helpless Sheep (people)
People who are ignorant (especially about guns, "Ewwww Guns Kill People!")
People who take advantage of other people
Mc Donalds (They contributed about $3 million AGAINST the Rocky Mtn Elk Foundation!)
Rap Music (Some is OK I guess)

So, expect more of the same! I explained that I have 2 weekly posts. One is the weekly PIG picture. PIG stands for Politically Incorrect Gun, and is generally posted on wednesday. The Second weekly post is the Pinup. This is any 1940's or 50's era pinup, and usually goes up on Mondays, (yes I know todays picture is late.)

They usually look at me like I'm insane... The voices in my head told me to ignore them and go back to sharpening my axe.... bwaaahahahahaha!

Scotch..

I have recently become somewhat enamored with Single Malt Scotches. Now I now this will come as even more of a surprise when I tell you my heritage is Scottish.
Questions I alway get..

1. Yes, I own a kilt.


2. It's none of your business if I go Regimental under my kilt.


3. Yes, I am a member of a Clan.


4. Yes I have competed in the Highland Games, (including the tossing of the log. It's called a Caber, and it is MUCH tougher than it looks.)

Way off track.

What I would like to do is spark a little conversation regarding the benefits/downside to Single Malt Scotch, and what brand of Scotch you prefer.
At this point in time, I am rather fond of Single Malts. I started with Glenlevit, but recently got to sample a dram or two of Glenfiddich Special Reserve, and may have found a new favorite.

So, what's your choice, Single or Blended?
Scotch or something else?
