Various things. Cowboy Blob and others have had lousy results with Wolf ammo in their M1 Carbines, but it shoots damn well in mine, no jams, misfeeds or FTE problems and accuracy at least equal to the GI spec stuff I've tried. Some firearms can be so damn picky about what they digest, and others shoot almost anything in the proper cartridge well.
A bunch of people who follow a religeon that advocates slavery, wife abuse and murder are pissed- this time- that movies don't have the 'proper' respect for Arab and muslim culture. As the lady says, then make your own damn movies. If you can figure out how to work the cameras and recorders and...
Falling on ice has an amazing ability to demonstrate how interconnected the various parts of your body are. And not in a good way.
The things kids come up with. He's right, by the way; animals aren't actually smart, but they're sneaky little bastards.
I read a couple of years ago about one of the damn near uncountable members of the Saudi royal family- being in Switzerland for medical treatment- asking an official about a spot near the hospital "What would it take to build a mosque there?" The reply was "First, allow us to build a church in Riyadh." Why the hell isn't that the response from more officials?
From Mark Steyn:The famous photographs of the departing choppers lifting off from the US embassy in Saigon with pleading locals clinging to the undercarriage are images not just of defeat but also of the betrayals necessary to accomplish it. “In reality,” writes John O’Sullivan in his splendid new book The President, The Pope And The Prime Minister, “the betrayal was truer than the defeat. America had not been defeated on the battlefield and South Vietnamese ground forces had themselves defeated a full-scale North Vietnamese invasion in 1972 when they still enjoyed US air support. Not only did the United States withhold such support in 1975, but Congress also refused to supply even the ammunition and military supplies that it had promised when the American forces left. For some perverse psychological motive, the American establishment acted as if the United States would not be genuinely free of involvement in Vietnam until its allies were conquered and occupied.” And many of the chickenshit politicians who had a hand in this are doing everything they can to make it happen again. Rope, lamppost, politician...
Why does anyone give a rats ass about celebrities in the first place? Naomi Campbell has denied she has asked a witch doctor for help.
The supermodel has rejected claims she is interested in Brazil's African-based Candomblé religion, which has rituals likened to witchcraft, after claims she was seeing a witch doctor to curb her temper. Maybe she'd learn to control it if that five days of community service was five months in jail?
It's bloody wonderful how a college president can fire a coach and throw students under a bus, and now act like said students are wonderful people. And how many of the NAACP clowns seem to think that putting somebody in jail even if they didn't do anything(to make up for the past, you see) is a good idea. And defend the kind of bullshit by a DA that, when it was/is practiced against blacks, has them howling in the street.
It's not amazing, but a friend taped the first episode of The Dresden Files, so I'll be able to watch it. Look for a review when I can get off my ass(actually, on my ass in front of the tv) and see it.
Heard from the male offspring, it's now back to normal weather in Germany: snow and cold.
It's late and I'm tired. More breathtaking observations to come.
