I haz a happy.

Last Saturday was one of the best times I've had in quite some time, Met a bunch of new people. Some of them I knew already from online, others I'd only heard of before. The first annual NorthCoast blogger shoot was a blast to say the least! Thank you Breda, Heath, and Amanda for putting on such a great event. Thank you to everyone else for attending and making things so very interesting.

I'm only going to post one photo from it at this time as everyone else has covered that quite well... mostly because I've been a lame duck waiting a whole week to actually blog about it.

So today I'm here to officially start my "bloggers I've met" list.

Oh and it seems my Apple Pie was quite the hit amongst everyone who tried it!

Form 4473

I filled out my third one today after walking in my favorite funshop, pointing at what I wanted, waited for the "proceed" and promptly paid for both the firearm as well as a box of Sellier & Bellot 92Gr. FMJ .380

We thanked each other, I headed out to my truck, opened the box, loaded the gun and placed it in my center console. What firearm did I purchase you ask?

Thanks to my grandfather for the nifty NASA ERTS chart dated about 1970. It's from his travels to South America looking for gold & diamonds.

Progress goes boink


Guess I got somewhat lucky here, I have a halfway decent sword to my left.

Yoinked from Breda

Hey lookie there, I actually blogged! Bonus, I'll have another post in a while pertaining to a new purchase. :D

Local area crime on the rise.

A student of UT was murdered this past weekend just off campus after telling the scumbag he didn't have change or cigarettes for him. The area where this happened is covered with security cameras, and "emergency call boxes" for students to use in such a matter. We should all know by now that no matter what, Protecting yourself by means of being armed is far better than relying on over-worked & understaffed police forces.

Just yesterday an officer attempted to pull over a suspicious vehicle. One of the passengers decided that shooting at the officer was a smart move. all four passengers of that vehicle are now in custody.

It's starting to look like Toledo is the new Detroit/Chicago when it comes to arson. The lady in the video is a friend & neighbor of mine, she's a great ally in getting to know local .gov officials and local officers.

PS: My other half keeps getting mad at me for stocking up on ammo... *sigh*

Prep thyself!

Times are tough, When more and more houses set empty, arsons and robberies go up. Every time I leave my home and know that no one else is there, I'm nagged by the feeling today just might be the day some desperate loser gets the itch to see what we have the he "needs" My only hope is that I'll be as lucky as this guy and return back home before he/she is gone. You ever feel that way? Or do you feel your neighborhood is plenty safe?

Not very long after I bought this house and was working steady on renovations, I made a run to the local hardware store less than half a mile from here and was back within fifteen minutes, Upon my return a young neighbor kid approached me to warn that someone from across the street had walked up to my home and had themselves a peek through my windows.

That pissed me off! I thanked her for the info and stopped all my work for the day. Which lead to me sitting on my enclosed porch (which at the time had our huge bathtub temporarily placed there till we could carry it upstairs...) laying out a piece of plywood on top of the tub for a makeshift table I got out my AR15, fully stripped it down and cleaned every "nook & cranny". Then after I was done with that the Mossy 500 was next. And when that was done with that I loaded them both back up and sat out there a while drinking a soda & smoking a couple cigarettes.

I'm not sure if that did it or We're just lucky, but so far not one shady fuckwit has messed with our stuff.

Toledo is filled with "WTF?"

Not too long ago A woman assaulted a McDonalds employee because she couldn't get her McNuggets. And today you've got a guy who stabbed his own mother over a cheeseburger.

Tomorrow will be a shooting over someones fries being dumped over in the bag rather than staying in the container?
