Two things I always need more of; more money and more guns. More of the former leads to more of the latter.

Ft. Sill! I spent a few months in Ft. Sill back in '69! In 2002, I rode my Harley chopper cross-country to see the old Fort and to pay a visit to what we knew in '69 as "sin city", Lawton. A lot changed when I went back. By chance I met an ex street cop from '69 and he told me how the city had...

Okay, I like to get on the Internet and look at all the latest and greatest weapons and accessories out there. For some time now, I see reviewers of AR15's use the term; "this is a great new entry-level AR15". My question is; what on earth is an entry-level AR15?! I've seen reviews that call...

And I respond in all seriousness, if you have no AR platform rifle (better range), get one NOW! Some makes/models are difficult to find, but go to any gun store and you'll see some in stock. The proverbial writing is on the wall and it's not a matter of "if" anymore, rather a matter of "when"...

From what I hear, one way Biden will attempt his assaults on the 2nd Amendment is through the courts. He is looking to get a ruling from a Federal court that would hold gun manufacturers liable for gun deaths. So, get ready to hear the cries of the victims families; "He'd be alive today if it...

My relating that story about that near retired MPD detective was more of a humorous tale. The detective was an older guy and to me, I was amazed that his .38 never did fall out from it's holster. Sometimes I wonder if he deliberately wore it so loose just to get me going, looking for my...

That Colt Detective special was the only gun that ever made me shaky and nervous to no end. Back in the early 90's I was consulting to the Milwaukee Police Department. I worked with like a half dozen detectives in a 6th floor office at the police headquarters downtown. One of the detectives was...

I like to travel. Once this covid thing is history, I'll be getting on the road again. I'll let you know if I head your way!

You got that right!

That's the one!

Yep, the Omni Hotel downtown. I never had to rent a car while there. AT&T was like a block away from the Omni. I spent most of my time walking to where I needed to go for eating and entertainment. The Hill was a bit out of my walking range, so I never made it there. That's one nice...

Talk about a small world! Back in my pre-retirement days, I used to work in Milwaukee and listen to Obie on the now defunct classical music station, WFMR, everyday. Obie knows more about classical music than an encyclopedia. He wrote a book filled with composer/classical music trivia called...

Do you send your straight edge to Obie Yadgar over in Glendale, Wisconsin? He's a retired clasical music DJ/writer that has a business (obieyadgar.com) honing straight edges. He does an excellent job.

When I had a mustache that went downward beyond my lower jaw, I shaved using a Tweezerman brush, Bay Rum Soap from Martinsville Soapworks and a Gillette Adjustable "Black Beauty" Long Handle Safety Razor (circa 1970) loaded with a Wilkinson double-edged blade. When I shaved using the Gillette...

No doubt the political climate has given rise to that jump over the MSRP. Still, given the Tavor's firepower and quality, it's worth even more than the inflated $1500.

I guess I better hurry up and buy a Tavor TS12 now!

The future of humanity didn't start going down just lately. It began in 1960 with the election of Kennedy. Kennedy "won" the 1960 election by stealing the election? Sound familiar? It's well-known that Jack's daddy Joe Kennedy hooked up with Illinois (the 1960 version of Pennsylvania) mobsters...

He was one a a few re-routing water. I had three neighbors further South of me whose wells inexplicably went dry. One neighbor had to resort to siphoning water off an above ground spring. Water rights in MT have been an issue for the last 150 years. The people in that area tend to like to...

I lived about ten miles south of Alberton on Petty Creek Road. We had a character that moved there from San Diego that built a huge (like around 4,000 sq. ft.), million dollar plus, log mansion. I saw this guy re-route a creek that went underground (likely supplying water to others) so he could...

I'd go back to Montana, but too damn many Californians are moving there, specifically Missoula, Kalispell and Bozeman. They're using their California money driving property values there through the roof. Now you can't buy a home in Bozeman under $300k. I have two sons there that live about 30...
