Quick question…
I’m looking at maybe buying a used Garand this weekend (local ad, too good to pass up). Anybody have any good pointers on what to look for? I know the stock is a little battered, so I’m not looking for a collector’s piece, and I do like to shoot my guns.
Interesting find in my grandfather’s dresser
This last weekend, my grandparents moved from the home they lived in for 50 years to an assisted living facility near my mother’s house. As a part of that, I got a couple of pieces of furniture that they bought when their house was new. A couple of days later I went to go put clothes… Read More »
Pro-tip, WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED Edition
When trying to do a multi-line insert in Notepad++, remember: The keyboard shortcut is ALT-SHIFT-DOWN. Doing CRTL-ALT-DOWN is completely different.
The damn things keep following me home!
So, this past Friday, I was kind of depressed. I think it’s because my birthday was Saturday, and I didn’t have much planned because just about all my friends had already made plans to be out of town or with their families or moving family members from out of town.

I’ve had recent cable speeds slower than that! It averaged out to about 14 after several tests, but it beats the… Read More »

What size tires does the Dark Knight Batmobile have?
Freaking HUGE ONES! (okay, the answer is 18.5/44×16.5 Interco Super Swamper IROKs) Yesterday I took my lunch break to go see the newest Batmobile, called “The Dark Knight Tumbler” and that piddly little bike thingy called the BatPod. It’s neat. Unfortunately, they didn’t let me test drive it. Protip: Don’t stand 6 feet away from… Read More »
Why YOU should call the cops if you ever display your weapon
I came across this story this morning, and I’ve got some thoughts about what happened. The reporting is pretty slim, so I could be completely wrong, but here goes. “Victim” and “suspect” are being mutual assholes on the highway. “Victim” decides to teach “suspect” a lesson, and gets out of the car to, er, administer… Read More »
