Kicked all my buddies asses shooting skeet with my Mossy 500 tac rig. Who says 18" barrels can't shoot skeet? Oh yeah, 100 rnds through a Mosin Nagant M44.
Actually I guess all I did was bruise the shit out of my shoulder. Oh well. |

Cleaned house. Went to the AIRSOFT store (Airsoft Extreme) to get my boy a new M4 carbine. Oh yeah. Almost forgot. I broke up with my girlfriend! Had a busy weekend! |

I did a lot of mowing at the ranch.
We had one field that had not seen the shredder for over a year and the brush was taller than the tractor. I got about 30+ acres taken care of this weekend. Some had to be done in first gear since it was so thick. Used a 15ft. Rhino shredder with a Ford 6600 series tractor. Thas sucker sure was trying to over heat! I also changed the blades on the smaller Bushhog mower. It took an eight foot cheater bar and lots of WD-40 to break the nuts loose. On the nature side, the field rats were running and the hawks and quite the meal. My wife said I was the farmer on Secret of Nimb.

I went to my national guard drill. There we did a live fire excersize with unzeroed weapons. Nevertheless I still managed to kill every target presented to me, albeit I did use the three round burst function.

Uh, lets see... I got called in to work twice on Saturday. Once at 8:30am, got off at 4pm. Then again at 4:30pm, got off at 12:30am....
All I've done today is eat breakfast and dinner, watch a movie and smoke a cigar... I think that puts my accomplishment list just above NOTHING for the weekend. Jonathan |

If I'm not working, I try very hard to do NOTHING on saturday and sunday. Since the Jews think the Sabbath is Saturday, but the Christians seem to think Sunday is the day of rest - I figure I'll play it safe andand rest both days. Don't want to piss off God!
Other than biking 40 miles on Saturday and Sunday, I pretty much did nothing at all. Mission accomplished! |

Washed the kitchen floor, cleaned the hamster's cage, cooked, washed dishes, washed clothes, fed the family, and made out all of my Christmas cards! I also did a little scrapbooking. My hub doesn't seem to understand why I want him to take me out someplace for a fun afternoon. I made out all of my Christmas cards for heaven's sake! I need to get out more.

It will happen! I just have to get some motivation together. I haven't been in a long time, and don't understand why I keep putting it off. I will be going back up to north GA this week and may be buying another AK, I saw some in a gun shop I had to go into for work (I love the way that sounds), that had attractive prices, but I was in such a hurry I didn't even notice what models they were, or even what caliber they were. I will also be getting up to Kodak TN and paying Inrange a visit, so I may have some AK building to do, which reminds me, I did do something this weekend, I went to lowes and picked up a bench top Drill Press, which should do wonders for removing old Rivets from trunnions (now I just have to get it out of the car trunk and put it together). |

I introduced a noob to the wonderful world of gunz. We expended countless hundreds of rounds of 9mm, .45, .223, .308, .22 LR, .410 and 12 ga. through more than a dozen guns. Also burned up a few ounces of black powder (not in a firearm) and finished off the leftover fireworks from the 4th of July.
Got some great pics of BlammO Jr. shooting, then realized the the little rodent had his safety glasses on his hat instead of his eyes. Terrible oversight -- bad BlammO! Great pics, otherwise.

I didn't do jack this weekend, but I did get to have lunch with Capt Chontosh and Corporal Armand McCormick. I (and I think the other arfkom guys) didn't catch on that Capt. Chontosh's buddy was the driver of the Humvee who was awarded (I think) a Silver Star. They were both extremely modest and down to earth gentlemen.

Drove to the Pocono Mountains with Mrs B and a recently married pair of friends. It's near Mrs Friend's birthday, so we did the driving, bought dinner, etc.
Mrs Friend (and Mrs B) are both crazy about candles, and you can't swing a dead cat in the Poconos without hitting a candle shoppe. Highlight of the trip: Mrs Friend also likes the VW bug. We drove past one on a dealer's lot which was approaching monster-truck proportions (big wheels, about 5 feet off the ground). We had to stop and take pictures. (A car dealer on Rt 209, a few miles east of Kresgeville.) Got home around midnight. Mrs Friend's question: "You are going up again, yes?" I guess so. |
