I know, I know

I didn't blog at all this weekend. That had something to do with it being drill weekend, and me being the only guy with the time and inclination to teach people how to shoot.

And dear g-d, I needed help.

There's something about living in a culture where guns are practically forbidden. Hoplophobia, the fear of weapons. You have to start from scratch just about every time they pick up a weapon. "OK, now you need to have the correct posture. Don't put your entire finger on the trigger, just use the tip of your finger. Breath control, breath control, now get a good sight picture...." Things that people who are familiar with weapons do almost instinctively. Every time we pull out the weapons, I have to start over with the basics and fundamentals before I can get them to even get a good shot grouping. I have a Laser Marksmanship Training System that I use to get them used to the actions of firing a weapon, but it takes time.... I've got two or three people who are naturals at it, but the rest of the troops need practice. And what pisses me off is that this gun grabbing, GFW, socialist government on this corrupt island makes it so damn hard to get a gun that I can't even take the troops to the range on my off time and let them practice.

And trust me, they need practice.

Anyways, I'm sorry for the suckage of non-posting, but I had my hands full. Hell, I didn't even get online this weekend to check my email, much less blog. Any time not spend working was spend on the couch, where I would collapse every night after I got home.

By the way, in case you haven't heard, the AP is still a worthless, anti-American craphole, and they've been proven liars. Remember, they're not anti-war, they're just on the other side.

And once again, HOW BOUT THAT GLOBAL WARMING?! California lost about a billion dollars worth of citrus fruit because of the cold weather there. Y'know, when I think about global warming, the last thing that comes to mind is losing citrus fruit in Cali. But gosh, I'm sure the moonbats and bullshit artists will come up with an "explanation". They always do. Just like I'm sure they'll find a way to blame snow in Tucson on human action as well. The global warming theory is a load of horse-shit, plain and simple.

Alright. That's it for this morning. I still have a crapload of work on my desk, and I have to find time to do it all.
