The Officers' Club: The Essence of being Pro-Victory

The Officers' Club: The Essence of being Pro-Victory

This is so well worth reading and I wholeheartedly agree.

Dwight Silverman says it's lame to link to something and then say "yeah, what he said", but in this case, there is nothing further I could add other than to say I agree with everything John Noonan wrote.

Moonbat? Sunrat? Do What?!

Up until 20 minutes ago I was the only one on the blog planet that didn't know what "moonbat" meant. I finally broke down and googled "moonbat" and this is what came back....

Definitions of Moonbat on the Web:

Moonbat is a political epithet coined in 2002 by Perry de Havilland of "The Libertarian Samizdata," a libertarian weblog. It was originally a play on the last name of George Monbiot, a columnist for The Guardian, but now the term enjoys great currency in the libertarian blogosphere as an all-purpose insult for modern liberals, peace protestors, and other ideological opponents. It is similar to the epithets Feminazi or Idiotarian.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moonbat

Oh, now I get it.

Oddly enough, I was there when the term "Feminazi" was born. To the best of my knowledge, it was Muy Grosso aka Dave Dahlman that coined the term. I used to think like him on a lot of subjects, but I think we're probably poles apart now. I've gotten, I don't know, older?, more conservative?, less energetic?

Or maybe it's just that one day it dawned on me that it's all about money anyway. Only money. I don't care what side of the issue your tissue is moistened on, the bottom line is moola. I'm NRA and they want dough. Those on the other side, the gun grabbers, those that would unarm the armed need money to spread their guff too. M-O-N-E-Y. Same thing for the right-to-whatever.

I can't think of a 'cause' that isn't because there's money needed to fan the flames. Republicans, Democrats, same deal only the hook is in the emotional lures. Once they get you on the line, it's easy to get you in the money net. Even the Boy Scouts and the Girl Scouts are all about money. And everything has a pro and a con. Name one thing that isn't motivated by dough? They say "put your money where your mouth is" and they aren't just whistling Dixie. They also say "give until it hurts". Ouch.

Back to the reason for this one though...... moonbat. The leading contender for Moonbat of the Century is that goofy woman that's using her hero son's death to gain influence and, guess what, make MONEY! I think calling her a moonbat just adds to the cash reserves too. I think she should just be a plain old TRAITOR. Take the shine off the label. Or perhaps just shine the light ON the betrayer. I'm not even using her real name to denigrate her because I don't want to give her any further glory. So there. I'm glad I got all this off my chest. And I'm glad you took the time to read it. Thanks! I don't want any money for it either. It was freely given and can just as freely be ignored. I like the way that works.

Heads Bunker: House Guns

Heads Bunker: House Guns

Interesting, thought provoking article that leads to an equally good link.

As for me, I've made it a point to hide guns in every room in my house. My favorite gun to qualify for my CHL is a Heckler & Koch P-9S 9mm semi-auto. If someone was breaking into my house, I'd reach for my .357 Colt Phython revolver because I figure I'd be just a tad nervous and would feel more comfortable with a revolver. For concealed carry I use a S&W Model 36 revolver with Cor-Bon hollow point ammo. I've got several Colt .45s that I inherited from my "gun nut" husband, but they are just too much gun for me to handle. Like Head said, "if you can't shoot a particular weapon properly, etc." then you should find one you are comfortable with. Guns are good, it's people that you've got to wonder about.

One More Worry For Cops

Gun designed to look like a cellphone

The CellGunphone is a pistol disguised as a crappy old cellphone. Press the keys, 5, 6, 7, 8 in succession, and it will pepper your assailant pretty good with four .22 caliber rounds. Link, includes video of the device in action.

Humping's Not As Good As I Thought!

When I wrote about my daughter's new puppy humping her all the time, I thought it was cute and that it meant he loved her. Or, at the very least, that he was just being a sexual being, canine style. (Note I didn't say "doggie"! Yea, me!)....well according to her vet, it's not a good thing and should be discouraged posthaste. Seems it's cleverly designed to show her he considers himself large and in charge! (Isn't that just like a male!). Since he's planning on growing up to be rather hefty, she does need to get him used to idea that he's just a MEMBER of HER pack and not the other way around.

Come to think of it, I think too many people make the mistake of letting their doggies rule the roost and then can't understand why they misbehave. Dogs, like kids, need structure. It's a sign of love and caring to put your foot down (unless it's ON them, then it's a sign that therapy is needed, for YOU!). It's not easy, because both little kids and little dogs are so cute and it's easy to just sit back and watch them have fun, but then one day you turn around and they are not quite so cute and then they think the rules and boundaries don't apply to them and all hell can and often does break loose. So, the bottom line, seems to be, YOU should be humping the dog!
