Animal Rights Dorks Vandalizing Duck Blinds
“Extend the circle of love to all creatures.” You know, except for duck hunters I guess. You know who else eat ducks? Foxes. You don’t see the animal rights loons spray painting foxes, do you?
Still on Vacation
I’ve been off work almost two weeks. Feels good. Especially after such a stressful December. That’s why posts aren’t following the normal schedule. Normal blogging schedule resumes Monday. This weekend, I might look around for a match to shoot.
Zootshooters
J.R. found some practical shooters that have a whole 1930s theme going.
S&W 637
I’d say “Nice Carry Gun,” but he lives in Wisconsin. Someday, Peter. Someday. You have to get rid of Doyle first though.
New Years Eats
I don’t know how many of you have figured out by now that Bitter is now a food blogger. Her crazy Oklahoma traditions say that black eyed peas on New Years is good luck. Here, for Irish families at least, it’s Corned Beef and Cabbage, and since that is my ancestral heritage, we’re having that in addition to the black eyed pea dish. The corned beef cabbage can be cooked in the slow cooker. Boiling things for long periods of time is the basis of Irish cooking. While this cooking process tends to dull flavors, that’s nothing an unhealthy amount of salt (provided largely by the corner beef in this dish) can’t fix. Once you drink enough whisky, you won’t care too much anyway. Corned Beef and Cabbage is also the traditional Irish-American dish for St. Patricks Day.
Happy New Years
Happy New Years folks. You know, I just don’t really feel it. I think 2009 is going to suck, in a big big way. I hope you all enjoy the New New Deal.
