Monday Motive: Muscularity

The weekend is over, and thank Heaven it is. I socialized way too much, spent far too much time talking, and nearly lost my voice. I told the opossum story three times on Saturday to different groups who had yet to hear it. Even I am sick of it now, but at least the trauma is finally past. I made it through another family gathering without starting any serious arguments or eating any of the devil gluten that was prominently offered. Threading the needle of the weekend, I passed through the madness, and once again welcome the warm embrace of renewal that is Monday. Now, on with the show.

Send me an angel.

Muscular Monday Motivational

Greetings to all, unless you voted for Obama, in which case I’d prefer you self-immolate (right after you pay your taxes, assholes).

It’s Monday again, and that means it’s time to go back to work (congrats again, Vmax). Here’s a little something to get you going.
Failing that, it’ll at least get me going. Close enough.

She looks tired.

Old Guns

This is the oldest one I have.  A Remington Model 33 in .22LR.  A single shot bolt action rifle.

My dad’s uncle (who raised my dad, his parents died when he was very young) gave it to him in 1942.  Dad was eleven.  He gave it to me in 1977,  just before I left home*.

This was the first firearm my father taught me to shoot with.  It was the first firearm I taught my girls to shoot with.  Always good to start with a .22 rifle, it “plinks”, it doesn’t jump or hurt.  It gets a new shooter used to the idea of firing a weapon.
