I’ve never had a hard time putting a rifle together before. But this time I did. The person came in with a rifle that needed to be set up and ammunition selected. The gun was a common build .25-06 for shooting big game at 100 yards. Culling, not hunting. So why did I have a hard time with this?

Huckabee
Mike Huckabee says that he might give a Presidential run in 2012 a pass. Oh joy! I have a serious dislike of Mike Huckabee… he should stick to his radio show. But I hate his radio show as well. He’s always shilling his Simple Books, Simple Government, Simple Christmas… with his Huck This and Huck that… it really gets under my skin.
Why? Because Huckabee gave us Obama.
He stayed in the race only to make sure Mitt Romney couldn’t win. He divided the votes on purpose to allow McCain to win by such comfortable margins… McCain – the last guy any Conservative wanted to win the nomination. Then with some many people saying that they would never vote for McCain… they stayed home from the polls… Our turn out was low. Obama won each state by small margins overall. If we had a less distasteful candidate things would have been different. Instead, we got McCain and that allowed Obama to ride the Soul Train into the White House.
I hold Huckabee accountable for that. I also don’t like the fact that The Huckster is rabidly Anti-Mormon. Religious Bigotry because one Christian group believes differently than another Christian group. That’s small minded, pathetic, and is not a character trait that we need in a President.
Screw Huckabee.
Information + Time = Value
I’ve spent several hours with an individual who had talked of ordering a rifle from me. We talked ballistics, caliber, BC, trajectory, rate of twist, air pressure, spin drift, shockwaves, bedding, trigger, stocks, brakes, MOA… I educated this guy for a very long time, to the point that other customers were going to other guys at the counter and making other sales.
Bin Laden’s family may sue…
The Son of Osama Bin Laden is saying that they may sue the US Government because of the way the US Navy treatment of Osama.
Uh huh…
Does he know who Bin Laden was? The whole 9-11-01 thing? The whole 3,000 innocent lives lost because of Bin Laden?
Call Seal Team Six again, they have some more work to do.
Editing
So I’m working on editing my book getting it ready for publication. I’ve come to the conclusion that editing on the screen of a Netbook is far more grinding than editing normally is. This makes it slow. As soon as this editing is done, I’ll be working on the cover. I’m going to do a photo type cover. Staging, costume, make up… and asking the Utah National Guard for the use of some Military Assets.
As soon as I can finish the editing. I hate editing. I hate editing on a Netbook at least 3 times as much.
Trade Offer
Browning is sending me an X-Bolt Stalker in .300WSM. Nikon has sent me a Monarch 3-12 BDC. I have the scope, still in the box, and unopened. The rifle will be sent to me, according to Browning, in June. This is a great package for hunting North American Big Game. I’m pretty jaded about rifles, but the new X-Bolts have impressed the hell out of me. I really like the way they feel and balance, and the accuracy has been awesome out of every X-Bolt I’ve seen. However, I don’t need this rifle. What I need is a good laptop for processing video. Oh, I want it… I’d love it… seriously… but I need a good laptop.
One of my favorite reads, for free.
Got a message from my good friend and author Marcus Wynne. He is offering up his first book for free. I’ve spoken of Marcus’ works in the past. He is an extraordinary writer of gritty action, and I enjoy his writing a great deal. It’s actually his fault entirely that I’ve been jonesing hard for a Browning High Power.
The book is NO OTHER OPTION. To get the book for free, use code: KU25Y
If I could pick 5 authors to back me up in a fight, Marcus would be in that small group. That means he knows what it is that he’s talking about. Authentic knowledge. Marcus knows of which he speaks. He has been there, done that. He could be one scary dude if you didn’t know him. But he’s a great guy and one of the most noble men I know. Get his book. Read it. The get all his others.
Bush was drunk? Okay, let’s go there…
I’m tired of hearing from Liberals that Bush was such an idiot. Bush graduated with an MBA from Harvard. Unless you did the same or equivalent, STFU. “But Bush was a drunk in college.” Okay… Let’s go there. Let’s say that’s true. Bush did better drunk than his critics did sober… so again, STFU.
Variations on the death of Osama
You can’t go to a college theatre class without seeing someone doing “The Variations on the death of Trotsky”. I wonder how long it’s going to take for someone to rewrite it to star Osama Bin Laden.
Because seeing an Axe sticking out of his turban would be hilarious.
MHI: The Series
Congratulations to Larry Correia… he just sold the TV rights to MHI. I think a TV show is likely. Larry first gave me word of this at SHOT Show while on the way to get some chow… he said that it was in the works, but nothing finalized. Well, now it’s a done deal. That’s awesome.
All I gotta say… I want to be in the cast!
