"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”
~Winston Churchill

Turkey Shoot was cancelled
So I drove 70 miles for nothing.
I suspect I would have spent $10 and still not won a turkey, so I guess maybe I made out ok after all...hehe.

Well...
I am back...sort of.
I am in the process of moving and I have limited Internet access. And limited time as well.
I have a lot of unpacking and sorting, etc to do while I'm not working.
I have been following most of my regular haunts when I can, but posting...now that I have it working again will resume in the not too distant future. I hope.
So....some news since I had that long running isssue with blogger.
Still working for the sdame organization, but I've moved 3 times in the last year. I'm now working logistics. I am enjoying it although the pay is much less than when I was a tech.
Hence the move.
This weekend is the annual turkey shoot and I'll be going to that. $5 per event, 3 events proceeds go to the VFW. I haven't got much rangetime in the last year so i don't know if I'll be walking out of there with a turkey or not, but for $15 that goes to VFW, I don't much care. It'll be nice to hang out with some gunny folks for a change.
December 17th is our local Appleseed shoot. Myself and few friends will be attending it.
I will likely have pictures to post from that. I'm really looking forward to that shoot.
On the political front...I'm pretty well disgusted with it all. I pay attention, but it just pisses me off. We just need to vote all the bums out. I doubt that will happen as the sheeple in this country have a habit of forgetting the sins of the past and believing in the rhetoric of the now.
On the "distraction from real life front", The D&D campaign I've been playing is now a year old and we're still playing. That's quite the accomplishment. And I will be starting a Conan RPG campaign shortly. I am quite excited about that. I've been the DM/GM/Storyteller for decades and although it's nice to just play once in a while, it's been a few years since I was able to find a group to run anything for. So a few of my compadres are up for a new setting and Conan kicks ass. So I am hopeful this will be a fun and exciting change from standard fantasy for us.
I was going to disable my WoW account, but just when I thought I was done, they announced the addition of Panderia and the Pandaren asd a new playable race. My first thought was..."Is this a joke?" But no, it's not April 1st, and they're dead serious. I've only been wanting to play a pandaren for about 6 years now and they FINALLY do it, just when I'm about to throw in the towel...oh well. What's $15 bucks a month? really.
And...just when I've given up on having any sort of meaningful relationship with a woman, wouldn't you know, one just pops into my life out of the nether and she's the most wonderful woman ever! Yeah...I'm a happy guy ;)
So, in the meantime brothers and sisters...keep your powder dry and Die with your boots on!
Scouts out!

Back in the Saddle...so to speak.
Well, i've been quiet for a long time...RL being the bitch that she is...
But I'm glad to see my fellow bloggers keeping up the good fight.
Seriously.
Things are going to get a whole lot worse before they get better....and things are tough here.
I know I won't be nearly as prolific a blogger as I have been in the past, but I'm still here!
Die with your boots on brothers and sisters!

And we have issues with gun control?
I'm just gonna let you folks read the article and ponder it...
The excerpt below is what pisses me off...
Zapata was shot five times in the chest. Mr. Avila was shot twice in the leg, but survived. Neither of the agents was armed, as the Mexican government does not let U.S. law enforcement personnel carry weapons in that country.
here is the link
WTF over?
