Under Obamacare, we can all keep the HEALTH CARE PLANS WE CURRENTLY HAVE….

Sure we can.

Lying sack of socialist shits. If the American people really knew how much you have, and are, screwing them, they’d burn DC to the ground, and no Senator or Representative would ever be safe from harm again.

Read THIS post by Nataog regarding stuff to put in yer long term preps…

Me: I gots them already…..

I might be shy a bit on ketchup and perhaps a bit on booze (“do we have enough chips to go along with all this beer?”)  but other than that I am ok.

And his advice is, I think, sound.

“Dear Laser Enthusiasts,
 
   This announcement is to let the laser community know that our laser
   hobby is currently under attack. Last month, we received a cease
   and desist letter from Lucasfilm demanding that we discontinue,
   recall and modify our laser products they referred to as
   “lightsabers” or face imminent legal action.
 
   CNN – ‘Star Wars’ creator says laser too much like lightsaber
 
   Lasers are have a wide variety of applications in the scientific,
   medical, and industrial fields. We cannot allow George Lucas to
   threaten the livelihood and freedom of laser and flashlight
   technology.  Science developed from decades of research should not
   be owned by science fiction.

    Please help the cause by participating in the Lasers for Liberty
    community and by signing the petition to Lucasfilm.
 

O jesus, you’d think they’d have a clue…

Bad publicity is generally not worth the effort. But apparently Lucasfilms  will do anything to “protect” their image…More likely, they are pissed that they didn’t think of the idea first.

I hope my laser ships soon.

So I get this box today, via USPS…..It is addressed to me. The outside of the box says “Magpul UBR Utility/Battle rifle stock”…Whuttt?

I says to myself……Did I order a rifle stock???? Might be that I did and I just forgot……Nah….?

It’s from some guy in  Knoxville…..? Did I order something from someone in Knoxville? Who do I know in Knoxville? Hmmmm….

I am sure that I didn’t order another collapsible stock for my AR…..I think? Long time backorder maybe?

Could be…..? Nah, I am sure I didn’t order anything Magpul…..I already own half their catalog…..

Wait….Magpul is in, like, Boulder, CO or someplace like that, right?…..So WTF?  Over?

I dunno?

Then, carefully, I opened my pocketknife and slit the tape….

Gently peeking under the flap…..Nope,  no wires or anything like that…..I think it’s not a bomb or anything (I hope)…I opened it further….

To find the copy of “Oren’s War” that is being passed on to me from Linoge at Wallsofthecity.net.

Not only recycling books, but boxes too. Lowering the carbon footprint and all that.

Betcha AlGore doesn’t do that.

Now I gotta send Linoge a check for postage….And handling…..Wonder what the handling fee is gonna be????

Borepatch has an interesting article about averages and extremes when it comes to weather and aging and such.

Read it. Worth your time

Are some of the very few that can work at 5000 ft. Yet the US government and BO aren’t interested in trying to use them rather than ROV’s…. where they MIGHT be more capable.

wonder why?

Perhaps they aren’t clean enough for the EPA or maybe it’s the Jones act thing again….

Whatever.

I’ll begin thinking that this a real catastrophe when they start acting like it is a real catastrophe.

And apparently, the stuff you buy in the store, wrapped in plastic and on a little tray, isn’t really dead flesh….

“I have watched this show from the beginning and after last night’s episode I was so disgusted, I had to turn it off. A lot of my friends have said the same thing and will stop watching the show like me. It is a shame because all of us really liked the show. The Beekman boys have enough money to buy meat and they still went through with slaughtering these pigs after they had raised them from babies. It would be different if they were poor and needed to kill the animals on the farm for food. You probably lost a lot of viewers from that episode. I have no respect for these men anymore or your network. I will be spreading the word. I am forwarding my comment to people who protect animals and not slaughter them when it is not necessary. It is one thing to watch an animal killed in a movie where you know this is not real, but to happen on a reality show and to show the pigs on the ground bleeding was traumatic to watch.”

The truth is a real bitch to those who are city liberals, isn’t it? Apparently, some folks are so isolated that they cannot imagine that that meat which they buy in a store was once a sentient, living, breathing animal.

I was raised in a rural household. We raised chickens and lambs for slaughter every year. Some of them we slaughtered ourselves. My parents made sure that I know where my meat came from…

I like steak, chops, roasts, yard-bird, turkey, venison, etc. I have the teeth of a carnivore, and use them. Joyously.  I like meat, but I understand where from it came.

Apparently, not so with some folks. Do they think that that steak that they eat is grown in a vat somewhere?

So if Obama is against the AZ immigration law “because we can’t have 50 states with 50 different laws” then why is he not going after all 50 states which have differing laws on welfare, eminent domain, drinking ages, or concealed carry?

I mean, for consistency and all that…..

Interesting discussion on bugging-out in a bad situation, or staying in place.

It depends on the situation, IMO.

You should always, if possible, bug-in, and yet, should the situation require it, be prepared to bug-out. 

Best to have options. Preparing for both takes little effort, and most of the bug out requirements can be used in a stay-put scenario as well.
