Range Report.

November 27th, 2005 1 Comment

Since Lady Beth was working open-to-close at B&B Pet Stop yesterday I decided to keep the van and drive over to the rifle range for a bit and burn some powder. My eldest, Clancy wanted to shoot a bit too, so she tagged along.

Right away we knew we had problems. Not bugs this time, but [...]

Leave it to PETA…

November 27th, 2005 No Comments

Only the flaming idiots over at PETA could come up with this horse shit…

First, all you Dads out there are blood-thirsty monsters who get off on hooking and gutting fish. PETA is telling your kids this in comic books and then adding that the kid’s dog or cat is next on your hit-list.

I shit [...]

The Trapper Finally Gets To The Range.

November 23rd, 2005 3 Comments

Finally got to take my new Winchester Trapper .45 Colt carbine to the range yesterday. Since I bought the thing I’ve installed a full set of Marble’s sights, (1/16″ ivory bead front, a folding rear, and a tang mounted peep.), bore-scoped the barrel, slugged it, and got to working up loads.

Happy Birthday, my Brother. More than that, my older brother.

You taught me much in our too limited time together. How to shoot and actually hit a target. The best places to fish, even if it did cost a broken bone - or two - or more! The small things you taught me are endless [...]

Wednesday, November 09, 2005 No, your holiday binge drinking hasn’t gotten that out of control so early — that Christmas tree really is upside down.

November 9th…

November 9th, 2005 No Comments

November 9th… Now there is a special day! Why? Simple. It is my oldest childs birthday.

Clancy Breeann turns nineteen today. That’s right, nineteen. The big 1, 9! It’s a weird age as I recall. In the eyes of most of society you are no longer a kid, but still not quite an adult. Heck, I [...]

Happy Pagan New Year!!

November 1st, 2005 No Comments

er… Give or take a couple of days depending on your Tradition, that is.

Yep. It’s New Years day for me. No resolutions, no wild parties. Just lots of wholesome family fun that we enjoyed to the fullest. Oh, we did have a party on Friday night, but it was mellow and lots of fun. The [...]
