These three guys drove a van to all the ‘lower’ 48 States in just 97 hours and 7 minutes, starting from the Idaho and Montana border and ending the trip in White River Junction, VT. I’d like to do a ‘road trip’ with the boys this summer. It would be pretty cool to beat a [...]

From Texas Fred: Bank of America to gun company: Find another bank. Traction Control asks our 80 million gun owners to tell Bank of America to “find 80 million other customers elsewhere“.

The “X” at the right of each map marks the approximate location of the Sooper Sekrit Shootin’ Spot. Looks like we dodged most of the heavy rains just before noon today. The forecast for Saturday is Sunny, but there will be mud. Vehicle with high ground clearance will work best there. The plan is [...]

I just ordered 1,000 ORM-D labels from ULINE.com who for some reason sent me a shipping supplies catalog. I hope to run out of these soon and place a larger order next time. ORM-D labels are required for shipping things like ammunition and nail polish remover, and I’m all out of nail polish remover.

Selective coverage of reported ‘facts’ before facts are known. (See NBC video editing scandal.) Quote from Barack Obama: “If I had a Son, he would look like Trayvon Martin” Both Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton calling for protest rallies and people are now being beaten by ‘nondescript mobs’ in the street.
