Good morning, and welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day. I started off looking for one thing and found another, so here we go.
Yesterday was Elvis’ birthday, so let’s have a little less conversation and a little more action.
Satisfy me, baby.
This week’s theme is the upcoming movie “Lone Survivor”. You’d best know who Marcus Luttrell is, or turn in your Hostage card. Luttrell is played by Mark Wahlberg, who appeared in last week’s HHD. Also appearing in “Lone Survivor” are:
Taylor Kitsch
Sammy Sheik
Alexander Ludwig
and Eric Bana.
Do we want to see Eric Bana shirtless from the movie “Troy” even if it’s an HHD rerun? Yes, we do.
I looked for the release date, and all I found was “2013″. Summertime, I would guess.
Thank you for your attention, and y’all have a good day.

Oh, I can’t wait.
I’m a tad put off by Ludwig’s birth date being right THERE where I can’t ignore.
92? Yikes. My oldest was born in 94.
*cries
Mmmmm Eric Bana for breakfast. Excellent job, Roamy!
My best for your dad, Carin.
Sitting around in a hospital is no fun. Having a sick dad is worse. Prayers

It’s time to throw away our tv.
Just watched the space station go over my house. Thanks for whoever posted the link to NASA.
Where’s Gabe?
I graduated high school in ’94.
Obama 4th best president ever.
I was just reading that after less than 4 years, Obama has been rated
the 4th best president ever:
Reagan and 9 others tied for first, 15 presidents tied for second, and
18 other presidents tied for third.
Obama came in fourth
What did you google to find this shit?
Papa Bear Jailbait?
*is not saying when I graduated high school.
*there’s no 90 in that date.
Obama came in fourth
You get that when you poll the 1st through 4th grade.
I’d have gone with Madison. That guy was awesome.

I call bs- where was Carter?
My oldest was born in 86
Good news, by the “half your age plus six” rule, I can date Dave’s oldest.
I thought it was ½ your age plus 7. Not that I’ve been close enough that 6 vs 7 becomes a point of contention.
I just remembered something, & in light of the above calculations I’m suddenly never going to speak of this again.
Good morning!
Since MJ isn’t around to weigh in on this poat, I’ll just say Supersonic Faggatronic.
Ga.I*hate* helping my kids with math.
Are you still fucking around with long division?
No.
I just hate it when they want me to do the thinking for them. To TELL them how to do word problems.
I get frustrated.
This ^ just posted on FB by a lib friend who is one of the most hateful, selfish, judgmental people I know.
The irony is unbelievable.
His animals don’t know what sort of shit he says. If they did, they wouldn’t love him.
It’s a her. And she’s gay, really fucking militant-in-your-face-everyone-needs-to-know gay.
How is it that you count this person among your ‘friends?’
In that case, I stand by my gender assumption.
EXCELLENT HHD.
Carin, is your dad still married to your step mom?
I tried to push the thumbs up a hundred times for Taylor’s face, but it only worked once.
mare yes

I love it when I get these people in here that act all offended when I want to charge them money to do something, yet they expect me to do all this work for them.
“Can’t you just…”
No, I can’t “just.” People pay me to do that.
I am not going to miss this aspect.
Do they both live with you?
Are you selling Lauraw?
My step does not live here. no.
Howdy!
Have you explained this before? I’m sorry if you have. Why doesn’t he live with her and why isn’t she taking care of him. Is she infirmed too?
She lives in Grosse Pointe and works in Detroit. He can’t stay at her house because it’s not handicap accessible.
Gotcha.
Leon, knock yourself out.
She’s armed.
I said “date”, not “assault”. Geez.
Armed is a definite plus in my book, gives us something to talk about.
Or is Lauraw just talking about retirement?
This is pretty creepy:

More of the military clown posse. Bigger than I thought.
Mare, it’s been my experience that general officers tend to be fans of big government, particularly when you get past 2 stars. We sometimes think military = conservative, but at that level these officers are very much a part of the yooge federal bureacracy.
Oh yes, and the general soul selling and ass licking that is necessary puts them in a class all their own. There are some exceptions, a few.
Part of it is they are used to a society of control. Tight control. Trust me, the Army doesn’t trust people with guns. At all.
“ore of the military clown posse. Bigger than I thought.”
Remember that military leaders, especially at the flag level, are used to an amazing amount of control over the day to day lives of their troops and the organization and operations of the post that they command. No where in the civilian world could a beaurecrat order 3000 federal workers to start cutting grass simply because it needs to get done.
They are in many respects high-ranking bureaucrats, managing millions and millions of federal dollars (billions in sum, but rarely does one officer manage multiple billions of bucks), with the same competing interests within government as all the other bureacracies, including lobbying Congress.
They are soldiers and leaders, to be sure. But they are also very much high-ranking federal employees, most of whom will at some time in their career spend a few years or more inside the beltway.
Oh, Colorado Alex. Welcome.
Hotspur has a question for you.
There was an old timer at AoS who went by Timmy in the Well, and everytime a troll showed up (not sayin you’re a troll Colorado Alex, this just reminds me of that), he’d greet them nicely and then say “Tell me about your dad”.
That shit cracked me up every time.
Try not to worry so much, beansesese. Sometimes it is about the journey, not the destination.
Screw this particular journey but thank you for the piggie picture. She looked like my Neva as a little girl.
Am I the only one who didn’t think Brent Musberger said anything inappropriate? She is one of the prettiest women I’ve ever seen. She is a true knock out and I, for one, am happy at least one sportscaster isn’t a femmy pc dick.
Espn was wormy to apologize, for gosh sakes half the people that saw her got immediate happy pants and some of those were women.
[i]Oh, Colorado Alex. Welcome.
Hotspur has a question for you.
[/i]
Sure, what’s the question?
Timmy in the Well was probably my second favorite nic after Tuning Spork.
That’s not a statement on the quality of their comments, just their nics.
“Why does this ‘controversy’ require an article in the New York Times?”
“It’s extraordinarily inappropriate to focus on an individual’s looks,” said Sue Carter, a professor of journalism at Michigan State. “In this instance, the appearance of the quarterback’s girlfriend had no bearing on the outcome of the game. It’s a major personal violation, and it’s so retrograde that it’s embarrassing. I think there’s a generational issue, but it’s incumbent on people practicing in these eras to keep up and this is not a norm.”
The above is from The Other McCain.
Oh, by the way this is what the ugly, bull dyke Sue Carter from Michigan State looks like:
http://msutoday.msu.edu/news/2012/faculty-conversations-sue-carter/
And now beasnette is telling me that the 22 things I had run off at Office Max (cost 98 cents a pop) are only 16 things. I totally didn’t count them when I had it done several days ago as I was rushing through the many errands that had to get done.
*sigh*
The question is: how many bullwhips do you have shoved up your ass?
Round to the nearest ten.
Uh, isn’t she Miss Alabama? I mean, she rose to prominence on her looks.
Timmy in the Well was probably my second favorite nic after Tuning Spork.
My favorite was “Todd Bridges, First to go bad, last to go down.”
By the way, Webb, McCarron’s girlfriend loved that she got a ton more twitter followers. I think McCarron thought it was cool.
As usual the ugly, lib, feminist got it wrong. Must have been hard for her growing up being jealous of the pretty girls.
Someone should tell Sue Carter to eat a bowl of dicks.
Of course xbrad, that’s what is so stupid about Carters comments. Webb is happy to get the attention. Attention for being pretty which is basically what Musberger said.
“The question is: how many bullwhips do you have shoved up your ass?
Round to the nearest ten.”
20. Your mother has the magic touch, apparently.
Why does this ‘controversy’ require an article in the New York Times?”
As Rush noted yesterday, these are the same people who thought that Kathy Griffin simulating a blow job on Anderson Cooper, live on CNN was “edgy” and “hilarious”
Hotspur, she looks like she likes Vajayjay.
20. Your mother has the magic touch, apparently.
OHHHH!!! Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner!
I see Colorado Alex will fit in around here nicely.
The answer to the bull whip question is always a good indicator.
Good point, Wiser.
Welcome Alex!
actually, by the way Anderson was reacting, that was the funniest thing Griffin has done in a long time.
Appropriate, no. But funny to a sarcastic sicko like me.
Only 3 minutes to count to 20? You need to go back to Mensa or wherever you came from.
They cancelled recess for the kids in Newtown, they don’t want them outside without a police officer present.
Is this going a bit too far?
AND, Webb herself was in no way offended by Musberger’s comments. She was flattered.
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1477112-aj-mccarrons-girlfriend-katherine-webb-defends-espns-brent-musburger
Hey, Sue Carter, SHUT UP YOU UGLY, DYKE, SCRUNT!
Griffen was disgusting. Musberger wasn’t.
Well then, she can eat a bowl of vajayjays, but I would not want to watch.
“…but I would not want to watch.”
LOL
“Only 3 minutes to count to 20? You need to go back to Mensa or wherever you came from.”
I thought MENSA was a generic brand of tampons?
A short pause from the levity: my wife is actually in Mensa. I am totally stealing this joke.
Kathy Griffen is the woman who sits at the bar all night, gets obnoxiously drunk, and goes home with the last guy there. Whether he wants too or not.
Man, imagine the face you’d wake up to in the morning after Griffen’s slathered on make-up is blotted off while her face is crushed in the pillow/headboard. IYKWIMAITTYD.
Sad fact: Kathy Griffin has schtuped more hot women that I have. Her penis is also much larger, & she is better at growing facial hair than I am.

Wow, Drudge isn’t pulling any punches today, is he?
Yeah, he kind of went Full Godwin there, CA.
In an ideal world, platinum $1 trillion coins would be outlawed and the governement would order the production of assault weapons. Instead, we have…this.
Yeah, he kind of went Full Godwin there, CA.
but is he wrong?
He’s not wrong at all.
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”
Preserve protect and defend the Constitution is not what us bitter clingers think it is.
He knows better that we do cause he gave a lecture on it once.
I didn’t say he was wrong. Just that he did it.
I don’t think that Godwin’s Law means what you think that it means.
Yeah, it really wasn’t an “argument.”
It’s simply an observation that as any internet discussion grows longer the odds of a participant being compared to Hitler approach 1.
it doesn’t mean that those comparisons are wrong, merely inevitable.
And Obama’s dismissal of the 2nd Amendment will do what?
Or get him how far?
It’s true, if Obama outlaws (certain) guns then only outlaws will have guns, never thought I’d be one of them.
How fat and how stupid does Christie have to get before he keels over?
Always knew I’d end up one of ‘em. Even back in the days of GHW Bush, it seemed pretty obvious.
If we look at Drudge’s headline as a part of the broader “internet discussion,” I think my Godwin reference is appropriate. A Spirit vs. Letter thing, perhaps.
. “As the president said, if you’re actions result in only saving one life, they’re worth taking. But I’m convinced we can affect the well-being of millions of Americans and take thousands of people out of harm’s way if we act responsibly.”
Uh no.
Are they honestly mentally deficient?
How fucking stupid are they?
Well, he did say he wanted to be transformational.
“Are they honestly mentally deficient?”
hahahaha….Carin, At Ace’s I went ahead and called them mentally retarded. Not pc but it’s just hard to get over how weird and stupid they sound.
Kathy Griffen is the woman who sits at the bar all night, gets obnoxiously drunk, and goes home with the last guy there. Whether he wants too or not.
George Orwell, please call your office.
It’s not the power of the NRA that makes the gun-grabbing hard to pull off (although that’s what they need the proles to think, that it’s all that NRA lobbying that skeers Congressmen away from doing the “right thing”)
It’s the millions of gun-owners. They’re the ones with this power.
I just don’t think that invocations of “Godwin’s Law” are any more meaningful than “Your Mom” jokes.
Me: “The Weimar Republic’s 10000% inflation has nothing on me.”
Your Mom: “Godwin’s Law!”
Me: “That doesn’t invalidate . . . THIS!”
I just found .223 ammo in stock at Midway USA. I maxed out the order in my cart as they would only sell so many rounds per customer. Every time I tried to check out, I got an error message saying this or that was no longer available. I think I got the last 200 rounds on the whole fucking internet.
It’s interesting because by dismissing any arguments by claiming “Godwin’s law” -it empowers Obama do push it even further.
It’s just like when they poo-poo’d all the communist stuff.
Boehner and McConnell should have already issued a short, firm (SYWM) statement, basically saying, Mr. Vice President, Mr.President, THAT ISN’T GOING TO HAPPEN and if so, impeachment hearings will begin.
I find Your Mom jokes very meaningful, Stark. And seeing as how your mother’s ass is so enormous that Stephen Hawking has difficulty calculating its dimensions, I would think you of all people would appreciate that.

Fail, fail, fail. Why show up for work?
At this point we could almost have a contest over which particular Obama offense will be the first one to become impeachment worthy.
Benghazi?
Zillion Dollar Coin?
Gun Grabbing by Executive Fiat?
I ain’t talkin about bullshit things now, I don’t care about Michelle’s lunch program or changing talking points on a web site. Any of those could meet the test. Others?

Yeah, that’s a hard one to call. Do we have to wait until he rolls up 100 non Constitutional infractions to take action?
Boehner, McConnell I’m talking to you.
oh, duh. Fast and Furious.
Well, I’d wish I had said this:
438 “As the president said, if you’re actions result in only saving one life, they’re worth taking…”

The Constitution is really more of a set of suggestions these days. That, and penumbras. (Penumbrae?)
D’OH Fast and Furious indeed.
Hey, McConnell and Boehner, kiss my ass.
Impeachment worthy? How about Government Motors? That was pretty early on in the administration.
Seems pretty tame these days, but government takeover of private industry to the detriment of stockholders and political rivals (when they picked which dealerships to close based on political affiliation) was kind of a big fucking deal.
Mare, if anyone is going to be assigned to kiss your ass, it’s going to be me, not that clown car in Washington D.C.
Well, okay then.
I agree Pups. And didn’t GM ask to buy back stock and President dumb ass said, “NO.”
I’m too lazy to google it but I know he put the hammer down on that one.

It qualifies, but the trail on that one is so cold I don’t it gettin many votes for First Place in the Impeachment Sweepstakes. Besides, could it get all the way to him?
Personally I think gun grabbing by EF is the only one that’ll have his fingerprints on it. But this is fun, keep going!
Obama is trying to collect enough impeachable offenses so he can trade them in for a giant stuffed panda.
“In my opinion, this is a douchier move than the original douche move:”
For God so loved the world, that he sent his only begotten son…and when that didn’t work he tried a fat woman who gave away free cars.
How about the cover-up? The imprisonment of the film maker?
Biden in is charge of the gun grabbing, so I don’t expect it will amount to much.
“Biden in is charge of the gun grabbing, so I don’t expect it will amount to much.”

What cover-up? Who has lied to Congress under oath? As for the film maker, he violated probation. Sure, it’s bullshit and an abuse of prosecutorial discretion, but no letter of the law violation took place. After all, it was a member of the judiciary, a federal judge, who signed off on it.
Who has lied to Congress under oath?
If that is your standard for impeachment, we are never going to get this done.

Biden won’t be the one giving the executive order.

MJ – Why are you in Puerto Rico?
“My honor is called loyalty” is the best translation. It literally comes across as “my honor is named loyalty” as the verb is heissen = “to be named”.

Oh goodness no, “lying to congress” is not the only impeachable offense there is. But to be impeachable you gotta prove Obama did (high crime and misdemeanor, fill in the blank), not some underlings.
The reason I like gun grabbing by Presidential fiat is the crime has his signature on it.

Beef jerky *recipe* was for 16 – 20 hrs in a 90 degree oven. Ours was all done in front of the pellet stove in half that time.
Came out okay. Classic jerky flavor. Meaning, too much salt and chili powder. Too dry, too. Sahara dry. Next time I want to make a moister product with less salt and a somewhat different flavor. But it is still pretty nice to bite down on, I tell you whut. And I didn’t have to run the oven.
NOW the pellet stove is really paying off for me.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X48G7Y0VWW4
Laura try a Orange Ginger Soy marinade for jerky add herbs and a little heat it is how I make jerky
How little heat, vmax? The racks in front of the pellet stove blower were registering about 105 degrees.
He means spicy heat, not warmth. 105 is as hot as you should ever use for jerky. Any hotter and you’re cooking the meat, not drying it.
I have candied ginger and a crate of tangerines. I guess I need to buy another roast and some soy sauce.
and a box of wine.
Ah, okay, well no. I don’t like hot peppers anymore.
…and a box of wine.
Proof that pot is a gateway drug. Legalize pot in CO and your gonna get the big time munchies.
http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/local-news/colorado-man-accused-of-smuggling-230-pounds-of-cheese-into-the-us-from-mexi-2
Yes Leon was correct. I add crushed red pepper to my jerky marinade. I do not want to scorch but I like a background heat
Let me guess MJ will check in from St Martin next.
.. and maybe some Cheetos
I finally heard a good counterargument to the “alcohol is legal, why not pot?” argument the other day, and I should have thought of it myself. We’ve got ethanol in us all the time from various natural processes, so we have machinery to clear it if the concentration gets too high without any serious repercussions. Nothing of the sort exists for THC.
Also, I am presently drinking wine from a box.
Where’d MJ go???
When I was in San Juan I went to the Bacardi Factory Mare. My guess is some fancy dinner with Mrs MJ only to check in while she powders her nose.
You should just go ahead and put it in a glass, Leon. Looks less like the way mare does it.
Leon – I have brain receptors for THC, non?
You have brain receptors for meth, too, MCPO. Doesn’t make it a good idea.
I just saw a commercial for a show called Double Divas, it is apparently about women who fit other women who have bizarrely large breasts and need custom made bras.
My new reality show I’m selling to lifetime? It’s about a woman who fits Chippendale dancers and football players for specialized neck wear and athletic supporters.
I installed a heated birdbath outside our bedroom window while Hotbride is away down south.
She gonna flip.
There is nothing wrong with wine in a box besides the fact I don’t have any.
Heated bird bath? Neat.
Oh, I agree. But you really shouldn’t open the spout directly in your mouth.
Why not? You’re kind of a snob.
Yeah, evidently it helps the birds cope with the cold because it cleans their feathers which aids in fluffing them up for insulation.
Who knew?
Where would they find that in nature? Hot springs in Florida?
Every morning we drink coffee in bed and look at the feeders outside our window.
I think it’s what old people do.
Your cannabanoid receptors are meant to link to intrinsic cannabanoids. Those are produced naturally and can be cleared out when finished. THC is an exogenous toxin that happens to have a key to the same lock, but you don’t have any cellular hardware to eliminate it afterward in the usual manner, which is why it can linger for so long causing cognitive problems.
In nature they would be the hell out of here for the winter. But we feed them, so they stick around.
They’re on welfare.
You’re an enabler.
I’m old too, Hotspur, I’ve taken a particular interest in birds the last couple of years.
Cognitive problems?
Like what?
Wait…what were we talking about?
Where would they find that in nature? Hot springs in Florida?
Only if they’re retired.
Loss of short term memory, for one, but I told you that last week, Dave.

Dave’s not here, man.
I got a couple of dozen dove on my electrical highline wire back in the alley most evenings. I don’t know that they eat but I don’t feed them. Don’t bathe them either. They may be stealing cat food.
Leon, I’m one of the few people of my generation that I know who never smoked dope. I was askeered of it. Plus I liked beer. A lot.
Herself still buys her wine the old fashioned way. . . by the case.

So anyways junkies, pot is legal but imported cheese not.
Ironic, nest pas?
FUN. The fuel pump cut off trigger failed and I have an extra 3 gallons on me and all around my truck.
I stink.
Now would not be an ideal time to relapse on quitting smoking.
Dave’s about to be a Screaming Alpha in a Blazing Bravo.
Dave understands.
shut up I know better.. stripped the clothes in the garage and hung em over the fence before I even think about washing em.. shoes in the driveway.
Time to scrub a dub dub.
THEN I might have a smoke.
*pushed my truck away from the mess in neutral, didn’t EVEN think about starting it for 50 feet*
I hear sirens now. Heh.
Ugh, Dave. Sorry to hear that! Please don’t light anything/ blow up.
If Dave blows up, I call dibs on his Wayfarers.
Dave, we already have a commenter named Chrispy.
That happened to me once, late for a meeting, running on fumes and had to pee so bad my teeth hurt. When I came out of the gas station there was gas everywhere and the attendants were scowling at me. I paid and left before they attacked me. My shoes stank (stunk?) like gas for my meeting
I scrubbed cleans.. the suit is hanging out in the air (if it rains more I’ll put it in the garage) Shoes are well away from any damn thing.
And I’m smokin.
I don’t just mean a cigarette either, rawr.
*hotspur, the Wayfarers have corrective lenses in em*
I wasn’t in the store, I was on the other side of the truck emptying out some beer cans and bong water. I knows you supposed to watch it, but I also knows if I’d been standing there I would have gotten an even bigger gasoline spray to the face and hair. THAT would have askert me.
In Michigan it’s illegal to leave the hose unattended. Some stations take the stopper things off so you have to hold the trigger the whole time.
Sucks when it’s 20° and you forgot your gloves.
Dear Taylor Swift,
in June when their baby is due, you simply must barge in on Kim and Kanye and say:
“Yo Kanye, I’m happy for you and I’ma let you finish having your baby, but Beyonce had one of the cutest babies of all time. ALL TIME.”
We have the lock thingies in Maine. I’ve never had the auto stop fail except this one time I wasn’t there. I have no idea if it sprayed since I was having piss shivers in the restroom. Learned my lesson….I now stand there obediently like the sticker on the pump sez.
That’s the law in Mass. Some towns actually banned self serve gas because JOBS. If I can’t turn it on and walk away I get cranky.
We should all get electric cars.

Anyone buy a WaxVac yet? The infomercial says its quiet, clean and effective. No more dangerous Q-tips!
There’s no self serve in OR. I think one other state as well.
Applications submitted!
Fer wut scott?
Did anybody put the kibosh on anybody else’s idea today?
No self serve in New Jersey.
*gently balances a kibosh on the top of Sean’s head*

Carry permits Jimbro.
Cool, hope it works out well for you. I just signed up for the class to begin the process.
I BLOWED UP
>>No self serve in New Jersey.
Yep, any bad idea that comes along, NJ jumps in with both feet.
But gas is chaper in NJ than most other places. So I am not going to complain too much. Besides, it is great in Winter.
NIEW GAME FOR YE FAGGTZ: GUESS MY BAC. (hint: there is no emprical, exogenous authority you can appeal to)
I LOVE those full stop deals on the gas pumps.
Scott, did it cost you $205 a piece?
Comment by Sean M. on January 9, 2013 8:51 pm
Twice.
You know, Drudge can be pretty clever. Young Lincoln holding a gun in reference to Obama’s “executive order” plans….hahahahahaha
(based on previous legal entanglements, I’m at 0.35, at the very least)
SHUT THE FUCK UP, YTOUR OPNION HURTS MY FELIGNS
Today was only the part to make the town happy. It was $136.50 each. If the town approves us we apply with the state and pay them another $70 each.
Wow, scott, that’s harsh. It was only $100 here in the socialist utopia of MA. Will need to renew this year.
It’s not cheap in Texas which disappoints me, but it appears (and makes sense) that CT would make those who want permits jump through a ridiculous series of hoops and not be cheap.
I’m glad you and Laura are exercising your right. Imagine if everyone did. This talk of (any) gun control would be even more difficult politically than it is now.
Scott, in the off chance the town isn’t made sufficiently ‘happy’, do you get your money back, or is there some sort of appeal process?
My goal now is to stock as much ammunition as I can. To me it makes the most sense for the feds to tax/regulate/issue permits for ammo to make it spectacularly expensive. Do an end around guns and make the ammo the target, so to speak. That’s what I would do if I was a liberal asshole.
Governor Rick Perry should (right damn now) encourage ammunition manufacturers to relocate in Texas. Offer 25 years tax free. Free land. The manufactures pay for the building and of course hire locally. Aim (heh) for 2 to 3 manufacturers. Pretty decent instate customers plus fight any federal legislation preventing cross state sales.
So, you dicks register your guns?
That’s a phenomenal idea, Mare.
Ugh… I’m afraid to even price ammo right now.
No refunds but we can appeal. I had to list a former employer that is a total control freak psycho jerk. If he is called I am doomed.
It will make his day.
None of my firearms (which (hi, Mr. Govt agent) I do no thave) are registered.
If you try to get into my house, the term I use will be “mystery holes”.
One of us coulda been a former employer.
*gives giant wink*
To me, ammo is already expensive. Because of the weather it’s been on and off but in a week 400 rounds is not out of the question. And I’m sure for the shooters here that’s low balling it.
A good deal is $10.99 for 50 rounds. Or a Cabela’s box for about the same. But MAN that adds up fast. I don’t go internet shlepping for ammo, which I probably should, but I like to put several boxes in my cart….it may be the woman in me.
When I formerly employed Scott, he did an awesome job. I still have pictures.
Some form of strange, ethereal magic must have spurted down from the heavens & punched those holes in that perp. I have no idea, because I was on twitter when i happened.
I have nothing to register. Really. Swearsies.
Oh, God. Marry me.
Okay. But will you buy the ammo?
Mare, take a look at luckygunner.com
they sent some PMC steelcase ammo to my coauthor URR that he’s going to review, but from what I’ve seen, they’ve got some good prices on most stuff.
Just sayin’. . .
http://tinyurl.com/a8nbx3s
Thank you, xbrad. Like I said, I’m not checking out enough places. By the way, when I go to a Cheaper Than Dirt store (not internet, they’re different), they sell NATO ammo, what does that mean?
I thought about it Cyn but they were very clear that any omissions would be grounds for rejection.
He’s an ass. Any cop that knows how to read people will know he’s an ass. Plus, I know things about his business. Illegal things.
Excellent point, MCPO.
xbrad, look at the prices:
http://www.luckygunner.com/handgun/9mm-ammo
Yeah, have to be careful about that crap. So long as he knows that you know, Scott, I think you’re good, you know.
Mare, are those prices high? I haven’t spent a lot of time looking around for ammo, especially not 9mm.
Don’t worry about the NATO thing. It’s mostly to distinguish it from 9mm Makarov, which you can’t use.
Huh, thanks, Xbrad.
He doesn’t know that I know.
I have files that I have saved for 6 years because I know his assholeness has no limits.
$10.99 for 50 is better than what they have…right now. I know it changes for those who sell second hand.
Smart Scott. I’m soooooo sick of those who are control freaks because of their own issues.
See: Democrat Party
yeah, OK, I see what you mean, Mare. Plus, all the 9mm they stock right now is JHP, whereas most of what you want for the range would be FMJ.
Maybe he should know that you know. To help encourage his pleasant and eager cooperation.
Xbrad, you’d love this range. It’s hot. They have an area for semi’s and any of course JHP and FMJ are allowed. We have moving targets, a car, restaurant recreations and night shooting.
…any ammo…
Oh, and yeah, good for you for keeping it. I just got rid of some similar stuff (not illegal, but could have been civilly damning) not too long ago.
I think I’ll take Herself out to lunch again tomorrow. . .
http://tinyurl.com/bgm39uo
What is 1k rounds of Federal 223 55g FMJ go for now?
I have 1 box I paid 135 for and another 145
It’s expensive but on Wednesday nights for two hours they have SWAT or Police qualification courses. They teach, light behind, in front, no light, moving targets, changing targets, several flashlight techniques, prone, knee, running, etc.
Mare, you just volunteered to host the next TX meetup.
I miss the days of 50 rounds of .45 for seven bucks
He is an interesting guy.
He hired me to fix his company, and then wouldn’t let me change a freaking thing.
Just keep in mind that . . . oh, you jackasses know about the mass & velocity & energy stuff. Why am I trying to preach to physics nerds?
HA! I had to do 5 push-ups (SON OF A BITCH), load and make ready, move to cover, find the thrown color of target to hit, hit the color choice, hit twice a far metal target, run to next cover, shoot the next thrown ball color of target and lastly shoot twice the far metal target, using a flashlight, in darkness.
Kind of embarrassing when you miss the far target because others can’t hear the metal being hit. New Glock 19 gen 4 NO night sights which all the hard cores had.
Most proud of being the only female doing the 5 push-ups when 2 guys got out of it saying they had back problems. My fat is a problem and I still did them perfectly.
The only female in the group of 12.
Yay Mare!
Wow Mare!
That is awesome. Good Job!
Sincere applause.
remind me not to piss you off when you’re doing pushups.
well done
Using a flashlight?
Smokin’ hawt, Mare!
I was a bit embarrassed about missing the far metal targets but honestly it was only the third time I’d used that gun. Like most people say, the grip on a block is thick and I’m shooting right and down. I believe accounting for the shape and size of the grip. As my instructor says, FRONT SIGHT MARE, FRONT SITE. (can’t see it in the dark)
Need to do some range stuff but the weather has been gross and depressing and just haven’t done it.
Thanks for the encouragement!
See, that’s what was so great about being a Bradley Commander. I had a gunner to do stupid shit like shooting.
That freed me up to concentrate on stuff like making Top Ramen on the stove in back and scrounging a cup of coffee or talkin’ smack to the First Sergeant about how he was taking his sweet ass time haulin’ chow up to us.
Dark is your own home is your friend.
There are two people in the world that can run through this house in the dark.
No disrespect, but those guys needed a serious dickpunch. Probably still do.
& you rock, & I probably would have cried at trying to do pushups.
(Okay, I just did 5 pushups, & you are more of a man than me. ow.)
Mare,
Once upon a time, I loaded-up a thousand rounds of .38 wadcutters for punching paper with the Colt Cobra and Dan Wesson .357. Then I found that all the indoor ranges here will no longer let you shoot anything with exposed lead!!! WTF,O? Well the local air quality authorities are “concerned” about aerosol lead exposure…
On the other paw, I wrote my Rep about the “Gun Control” shit. Dave Reichert responded with a lengthy(what else) tome that included this:
“However, I believe the best way to deal with crime is not to limit the availability of firearms to law-abiding citizens, but to enforce our laws to ensure that criminals do not obtain weapons in the first place and are penalized for their misuse. These criminals must be held accountable to our laws. “
Mare Willis will always be welcome at our Christmas parties.
Scott, it’s all done at night.
They are trying to teach (well, that was SWAT training, we had a guest instructor) generally it’s about real life shooting. In a parking lot or other circumstances, using the light available. The object is of course to give you experience in as many situations as possible.
“Dark is your own home is your friend.”
You totally get it. We do a lot of shooting from the “hip” rib cage…gun close in as opposed to full extension. You’d never go through your house that way. Someone could knock it out, see it etc..
>> FRONT SIGHT MARE, FRONT SITE.
ROOK EYE! AWRAYS ROOK EYE. NO CAN DEFEND.
not a block a GLOCK….idiot.
“ROOK EYE! AWRAYS ROOK EYE. NO CAN DEFEND.”
LOL, I swear, Dave, I thought of that.
Mare could be Bruce Willis.
A scattergun with #9 buckshot relieves me of the “tight group” issue inside the Hobbit Hole.
No one wants to kill with a firearm. We don’t have that in us.
I’m glad my kids are ready
A fat, slow, dumb, needs work on my shot, Bruce Willis. Sure.
But honestly, I wish I had a picture of the 3 hard core guys that were wearing tactical pants and the cool under armor tight shirts that look like this:
http://www.hessenantique.com/v/vspfiles/photos/RC90020-2T.jpg
Really, they’d been in combat and just loved having the SWAT guy giving instruction on a hot range.
I’m thinkin’ I need a Glock 27. I winder if there are any to be had, or any ammo for them. I don’t have dies to reload .40 though, only .223, .45. 38.357, 9mm…
Dave, you’ve hit the heart of the real gun culture. I’ve never met a more reasonable, conscientious, hard working group of people. Truly the salt of the earth. Much of the intro to classes is spent on problem avoidance and there isn’t one person there who hasn’t reasoned out the responsibility of carrying. Safety is number one and anyone who says differently is full of shit.
I’ve had my CHL for months, almost a year and don’t carry because I want to be confident and smart when I do it. That’s my personal decision. Others can do what they wish.
Chrispy – Six to nine month wait here for a 27. . . I already checked.
I peed a little at the term “tactical pants”. My wife is going to suffer because that term is suddenly coming in to currency here.

Me, too.
I want a Glock 20 or 29 Chris
I will check to see if I have more than 1 set of dies for the short and wimpy. I do not know if I do
Roamy, I kid you not, they had that V from the shoulders to the waist and I was trying to focus on my limp wrist while thinking, “I’m right, our boys in combat are STUDS!”
You should have seen their push ups. Fast and low.
Now is the worst time to try and buy guns and ammo. Because of Obama’s reelection and the school shooting, everybody is going full retard on guns and ammo and prices are through the roof. It will all shake out in 6-9 months, unless the assholes start banning stuff.
WOW, from Drudge, that last one is interesting:

I figure by then, they will be banned. Tomorrow, I’ve gotta make phone calls.
Here, in the Blue state of WA, a “Must Issue” state, it cost me $42 to renew my ,
license to killconcealed carry permit until 2017. Anita, foolishly, allowed hers to lapse.That will cost more. One of the benefits here is that, if you go buy a firearm, show the license, there is NO waiting period. You pays your money and walk out with the gun. You have already passed the background-check…
V, .223 is over a dollar a round in some places. Shoot me an email if you are looking to, uhm, divest.
Quick, look, this screen snap of Drudge is awesome:
http://www.drudgereport.com/
The last time I bought .223, it was $0.125/round at the gun show in 1,000 round pack.
I should have bought more.
Well, I should have bought Microsoft in 1985, too, for all the good that does…
I talked to a former co-worker, and he said one of the pistol and pawn shops here had $3 million in gun sales alone last month, not counting ammo sales.
It makes me happy to hear that Roamy. The more that have them the harder it will be to….”confiscate.”
Pups
If I get the job in ND I am golden. If not selling 223 will keep me from living under a bridge a little while longer.
I applied for a job in Alberta yesterday. Is there any trick for ‘mericuns to work in Canada eh?
Quick, look, this screen snap of Drudge is awesome:

Mare, the heart of CHL training in Texas, as you know, is how to use a weapon to avoid killing, avoid the traps of the law, and yet to know when you have to use force to “stop a crime”.
Those are the words we have to use. I used force to stop (the bad thing).
Lawyer up afterwards.
