Where a Hispanic Catholic, and a Computer Geek write about Gun Rights, Self Defense and whatever else we can think about.
Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

Heh. Too true by far.
Of course, when your lower-half wardrobe consists of cargo shorts and sandals, well, below 60 degrees, high humidity, and windy just plain sucks. Especially when it gets down to 35 degrees and all the Yankee snowbirds who left their homes for the winter to escape the cold start acting even more stupid than normal because Cold.
Five below this morning, 60 degrees on Monday. I love Ohio river valley weather, the randomness of it keeps me sharp and keeps me guessing.
There have been days in the past week that I actually wore pants, instead of just cargo shorts. And sandals with socks (it’s OK, I wear the socks ironically). Most days my “bathrobe” is a long sleeved denim shirt over my tee shirt. Putting on a tee shirt that says something is “getting dressed for the day”.
Yeah, we had a couple of days here that I was forced not to be barefoot inside the house.
-22 this morning outside of Chicago, furnace broke last nite, snow blower broke after 8″ of snow on Monday, waiting for locust or plague of frogs over the weekend
Damn… I’d be waiting too.
So true. I remember driving from the Midwest to Miami one January for a job interview, and stopping in Orlando on the way back. I sat in a fast-food joint on a 55-degree evening and watched people coming in wearing parkas. Later, when I lived in Florida, I still marveled at people who couldn’t handle cool (not cold) weather. (And I hate cold and snow as much as any Floridian.)
I’m from Idaho. When I’m in hurricane country, my meme is exactly the opposite. Zero degrees, snow, blizzard, bring it on. Hurricanes, I’ll be 200 miles inland if you need me.
