Winchester is closing their last US factory which manufactures the model 70′s and 94′s. Now that they’re starting to get it right…. I love my little 94 trapper and intend to add a .30-30 and/or .32 Special to the collection along with an 1886 in .45-70. I wonder if this will also be the end [...]
Stick a finger in Wendy’s Chili as a scam and get 9/12 years in prison but if you are a teach who has homosexual sex with a student get a suspended sentence. I guess the several cases of women sleeping with male students who are serving prison sentences made the mistake of being hetrosexual.
I am very sad to see Lugar run for his sixth term unopposed, though there is still time for a conservative challenger I doubt it will happen. But for my money I don’t want a republican that I cannot tell from the democrat for if that is the case if I would happen to vote [...]

One of the more interesting documents is one submitted by our neighbor to the south: Illegal civilian possession of small arms usually starts with weapons that were brought and produced in [...]
It looks like there will be a User Friendly style of sitcom coming soon. To India. Naturally it won’t be as funny.
It only took a week to get a day I could actually do it but the new television antenna is finally mounted on the rotor mast. The antenna is our Christmas present from my Father. And it is huge as the photo shows… Note that little bitty thing behind the big one? That’s the old [...]
The site has now been upgraded to WordPress 2.0. Sadly my favorite plugin doesn’t yet work with the 2.0 version. Fortunately the 1.5 themes work with 2.0 though I noticed a dozen or so other themes I want to checkout so maybe I’ll finally dump the Kubrick theme for something more interesting. Or maybe not…..
