Apparently the shark has landed.
Nobody yelled ‘‘Fore!’’ at a Southern California golf course when a 2-foot-long shark dropped out of the sky and flopped around on the 12th tee.

I wonder if that is the “Walking Dead” shark or the Zombie Craze shark.
Lt. Dan Band Movie Trailer: For the Common Good
By pure accident, I had the chance to watch it last nite in the Documentary Channel. I’ve been following Gary Sinise in Twitter for a long while now and instead of the insipid Hollywood Star blabber we get from other idiots, his is all about his work and his band helping the troops with a bit of music and raising the morale.
I was surprised that he is really a bass player and a decent one. His band is just a band with good musicians that know they are not there (as in any where the service people are) to stroke their egos but to give a good show. All of them are humble and point out that the real heroes wear the uniform and get in harm’s way but the band’s dedication to bring happiness to the troop year after year is an amazing feat.
Please watch it and have enough kleenex ready as you will suddenly develop allergies throughout the movie. The part where they host a party in Disneyland for 1,500 sons and daughter that lost their parents in action will simply floor you.
This is a long (very long) overdue review. Months ago, I received samples of Super Brush for T&E but it coincided with my slowing down on shooting for several causes and I am not anal about keeping my guns so clean, they can be carried in a OR.
Still I did perform one initial test with the Super Brush but probably not for what it was designed. I have a small frame revolver in .357 Magnum and was having troubles extracting cases smoothly for a fast reload. In one occasion it got so bad that a case couldn’t be extracted by the ejection rod and I had to push it with a cleaning rod. So the first duty I engaged the Super Swab was to be attached to a drill and after a generous application of bore paste I went to town on the chambers to remove any small imperfections present. Bore paste being very mild in its abrasive characteristics might have removed an offending tool mark or the cylinder just needed a good cleaning, but the swab came out black as night and the case sticking ceased…… yes, probably was just dirt. The Super Brush held amazingly well and even though I was expecting some degree of damage or shape change, other than the color and dirt on it, the swab looked normal.
This is the Super Brush for 9 mm. It looks like a tactical q-tip and its diameter is oversized which ensues a tight fit inside the barrel but not impossible to use. The material is some sort of man-made fabric/sponge/foam that works amazingly well. Now that I am going to start shooting IDPA matches again (The steam heat has dropped to human levels) I went over my FNP-9 which was still dirty from my last time at the range. The Super Brush with a shower of Shooter’s Choice Spray once again performed as I expected removing carbon deposits and leaving the barrel clean and shiny. I am saving the used tip for using again because I want to see how much filth it can capture.
Next came cleaning the slide & frame. For that I used the Gun Tips to scrub the carbon deposits again along Shooter’s Choice spray. They come in different sizes to basically reach any surface in the gun. I treated them rather forcefully and managed to leave a cut in one of the one with the green handle but it did not come apart of left any particles of fibers behind. I think I removed stuff that had been with the gun since I got it and shot it first.
Conclusion: Even for a lazy slob like me, these are good products because they make the job of cleaning guns easier. You can find more in Swab-Its.com and even place an order for the babies. Do check the whole site since they have similar products for other industries and it may come handy.
And i want to apologize to Cathy Desorcy whom I promised this review and I failed to deliver promptly. I hope she gets rid of the voodoo doll with my image somewhere in his office. 🙂
Our favorite Reichsministerium für Volksaufklärung und Propaganda has cranked up the flames today. his week, they targeted Second Amendment activist Kurt Hoffman (@45superman) with quite incendiary rhetoric kinda denying the whole “We need to have a conversation” meme. CSGV still insist that expressing your dislike to the actual administration is treason against the government which is not only ridiculous but goes against the definition of treason as stated in the Constitution. (UPDATE: No Lawyers – Only Guns and Money has a great post about the attacks on Kurt.)
Of course, when the propaganda does not catch as intended, they are more than willing to actually engage in general libel by accusing Gun Owners of assassins about to strike against elected officials, LEOs and the Military.
If you are heavily engaged in propaganda, it is always a good thing to ignore the simple facts like it is very unlikely that the police will arrive on time to prevent a crime. Stating the facts is now transformed into a mud-slinging effort against cops.
And I really did not know that guns were readily available back then when we were one with nature as in cavemen times. But I guess I can picture Alley Oop with an AK-47 hunting dinosaurs.
And of course, the CSGV Nuts (A.K.A. Laddites) do not fall far from the tree of Rubbish. Raven would have a heart attack if she was to attend a gun range or shooting matches in South Florida where “minorities” make up the majority of shooters. It is also funny (in a sad way) that her morbid desire to disarm people, including minorities is pretty much the same platform that the KKK she hates so much, sponsors.
I am convinced that CSGV is officially off the rails. And the way the political map is shifting is sending them into a frenzy of idiocy that may culminate into one of them doing some seriously idiotic thing to prove their point. I don’t know if we are at Reichstag Fire levels yet, I wouldn’t be surprised if it is already in some of these people’s minds and the rest are mostly valiant behind the computer keyboard only.
Still, the price of Freedom…..
