In a prime example of shlock reporting, KSL News has managed to screw up a simple story. They talked to a 3 people in putting this story together. 1. Another KSL Reporter. 2. Some dude from back east. 3. An Anti-Gun Reporter named Gunn. They didn’t talk to anyone else in Utah… like Utah Gun Owners. They could have gone to any of the Dealers in Utah, talked to some Utah Instructors… But they didn’t. It’s as if they wanted to keep distance from the topic as much as possible. The other thing that bugs me… KSL has called Utah, “Gun Land“. This is a tag I’ve never heard. So I did a search and the only reference to Gun Land, other than the Deseret News bit that was mentioned, was another article… this time from the SLC Tribune Blog, in an Opinion Piece. Continue reading Utah is Gun Land?

Battle LA: I enjoyed it a lot… I thought it was very well done. It felt like you were watching someone play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, but it was fun. It even had the short vehicle stage. Overall it was a great recruiting effort for the US Marines. Which is a good thing, so I don’t begrudge them that at all. But where is the movie about soldiers where they sit around and wait all the time? Like in real life?
Sucker Punch: Distill all awesomeness and unfiltered imagination and mix in heavy metal and hot chicks… and that about sums up Sucker Punch. The phrase Eye Candy doesn’t cut it… it’s Eye Crack… Zack Snyder did it… he made Crack for your Eyeballs. I can’t go into any detail, because I’m still blown away by it. Fight Choreography is something that Zack is very good at, not only that, but he’s very good at actually showing you the fight. Not like some movies where there is so much happening you can’t tell what’s going on (GI JOE) but he actually shows you the fight. Like his previous masterpiece “300”, this one is going to rock you. It’s required viewing. You have to go see this one. ASAP.
Hunting Guy or Tactical Guy.
A big chunk of the shooting community seems to be in two camps. Hunting Guys and Tactical Guys and I’ve heard arguments between the two about who is better and all that nonsense. I know guys on both sides of that line in the sand.
One side buys long brown guns and fire rounds never used by the Military. They will also use pointy sticks and strings to bring down big game. These guys can load their guns backwards and then kill an Elk with it. They camo up and blend in with their surroundings like the Predator and will mimic their prey and get within spitting distance.
The other guys buy guns that are Black or Coyote Tan and they fire rounds by the bucket loads and practice shooting their Semi’s with speed and accuracy that is unprecedented in Military History. They will rip into a target like a hurricane, dominate a situation, and counter any threat they come across. Both sides have strong points. Continue reading Hunting Guy or Tactical Guy.
Horrible Horror
I love horror movies… But lately I’ve found no good scary movies at all.
“Devil”? No. Come on, the Devil is really in an elevator? Stupid story to begin with, but at least that one had… Okay, I don’t know what that one had… Paranormal Activity… started out good… had potential.. then the ending totally ruined the whole movie. Paranormal Activity 2 was even worse… the super slow build up that lead to nothing but bitter disappointment.
I just watched “The Last Exorcism”. This flick was semi interesting… A fake preacher doing a fake exorcism that turns out to be real… at best, it got “interesting”… had some potential… and then the ending was the worst of the retarded cliche endings that made Paranormal Activity look brilliant.
Ewe Boll could have made better horror movies than these. These are “Pants On The Head” retarded. I want my Dollar Fifty back from the Red Box.
Where are the good new Horror movies? If this is what American Horror Film Makers are doing – they need to go back to Remaking Japanese Horror movies. Or just quit… and go away. Second thought, yes… do that. Go away…
A 3 rifle battery for sale or trade for a bike
I need a motorcycle. This isn’t a “want” anymore… I need one. Bad. I gotta have a bike.
I’m putting up 3 of my favorite, best shooting rifles, for sale or trade so I can get a bike.
1. A Remington 700 Stainless CDL .223 with a Nikon Monarch scope on it. Yes, this the new new one I just got.
2. The Savage model 12 with a Leupold VariX III in .22-250. Harris bi-pod. Serious accuracy and was my best Coyote Murder Weapon when I was hunting them. Use Hornady 55 grain V-Max loads and nothing is getting away from it.
3. This one shows how serious I am… Savage 10FCP topped with a Vortex Viper 6.5-20×50 Mil Dot scope and a Harris bi-pod.
2500 bucks for all three or for a decent cruiser style motorcycle 750cc’s or bigger. If you have a nicer motorcycle… I’ll throw in a couple more guns. Another reason, I have got to have a second vehicle. My truck is the only vehicle we have. The wife can drive it when she’s staying out in the country… but when I need to come into town, I need something more economical anyways… and I bike is impossible to beat for that. I gotta have one.

The UK has become a nation of pansies
There was a new article about a fox of unusual size that was trapped and killed. The fox is suspected of eating a pet cat, so the man of the house got a trap and took care of the predator problem.
Japan
We have friends in Japan. So when we first heard of the massive quakes there, we’ve been glued to the news and have followed every story, and watched every video. Contact has been made with everyone and all of our friends are alright. Thank God. We continue to pray for the people of Japan.
I’ve been asked by a few readers, how they can help. The answer there is the same as in all the other disasters… The Red Cross.
After Katrina there was some stink about the Red Cross in their use of Katrina funds. You know what? I don’t care. My Grandparents where Red Cross Volunteers for years and years and they went all over helping people in dire needs… that’s what the Red Cross does and outside of Governments, they are the biggest dog in the fight. They are a great organization. If you want to do something to help Japan, contact the Red Cross.
Japan has been an important ally to the US and our Economies are tied together like we were a married couple. Even tighter than our ties with the UK. We need to help Japan to stand back up… get them on their feet again. Japan is a part of us… and they need us… Please, donate everything you can. Do what you can.
Rest in Peace, Mike
A co-worker just passed away… Mike Jensen. A good man.
He will be missed.
