I bought a gun I've been wanting for a long time two weeks ago. It's a Kel Tech PMR 30 .22 Mag. It's just a really fun range gun. Plus I love how stable it is even when rapid firing.

Rays have been red hot the past 11 games. And they've just blown a close game open against the Yanks. Now if the White Sox could just get it together and hand Cleveland a loss.

Been very busy with work lately. Both my regular work and a new business venture I've bought into. I'm only a minority partner in that one. One of many. I'm getting the feeling I've bet on a losing horse though. Plus personal life has become, interesting to say the least. Women complicate things don't they?

GB I thought Tommy was an Alsatian. I didn't realize he was a Rhodesian Ridgeback. My dad has had Ridgebacks for years. They are amazing dogs and brilliant watchdogs. But they can be sneaky and steal food, for example we once left a whole roast chicken out by the stove and came back to find....it had vanished Bones & all... don't leave any evidence behind!

Nice to have problem like that right Key?
-
They Rays win and lose on pitching. They can't score enough runs to make up for a lousy outing. And oh man was Moore lousy tonight. 6-2 in the 5th right now. Not looking good for us now but there are still 4 more innings to go.

Stephen King is releasing a sequel to The Shining. It has Danny Torrence later on in life coping with alcoholism and dealing with his psychic abilities with great difficulty. might be worth a look.

I watched that whole game... I nearly died three times! Can't wait for tonight.

Anyone know a good recipe for a bad dog? I left a NY Strip on the counter to defrost and now the plate is lying in the floor, looking cleaner than ever, an a certain Rhodesian Ridgeback I won't name is looking entirely too happy with himself. There is only two of us here dammit. if I didn't eat it it had to have been him! I figure if I just cook him I'll be getting my steak. Now, where's the salt?

That's the British national past time (queue Henry V speech in the play of the same name)

Pan seared rock bass fillet with yellow squash and lima beans. And it was all fresh. I caught the fish this morning and the veggies came from my garden not two hours ago. I think that is so cool! I made sun tea today too. I wonder if lemon trees will grow here?

How is RTW2? Performance issues aside? *cough cough* Reviewed by us Sounds like it took a turn in the direction of Master of Orion III. I was either going to buy that or Football Manager 2014. I was leaning towards the latter actually since I still play all the other TW games regularly.

First pitch tonight and Hellboy gives up a walkoff homer. Hopefully it gets better from here. A three game sweep of the Rangers would not be enough to lock it up but it would help.

I haven't asked her yet. I'm going to do it while we're away. I'm hoping for moonlit Hawaiian beach or something memorably cheesy like that.

And in the news today Obama has used an Executive order to waive a law the prohibits the United States from giving arms to terrorist backed groups. So, he want to take my guns away from me and give guns to the Syrian rebels, terrorists and all. Is it 2016 yet? http://washingtonexaminer.com/obama-waives-ban-on-arming-terrorists-to-allow-aid-to-syrian-opposition/article/2535885

I've been working in Arkansas the last week. I feel like a big weight has been lifted since my part of the Simon Mall project if now completed. I've got nothing really going on for the next two weeks then I'm going to Hawaii with Lady Guard Dog. I can't wait.
-
Rays 1, Rangers 0. So far so good but these next three games are just going to KILL me with suspense! But at least this will take my mind off of how lousy the Buccaneers have played these last two weeks.
-
You know Lady C I was having the same problem until very recently. Before that I found that diluting those feelings with lots of booze will leave you feeling a pleasant sort of apathy that, while not ideal, is certainly better than the alternatives. It's like you know the world will end someday but you just don't care.

Obama has come out of this looking like a total fool. I already had less than no respect for the man so I can hardly say I'm surprised this was botched. He would have been far wiser to have just stayed out of it and if he said anything at all just say the US was concerned and were looking into it. Instead he blustered, threatened, vacillated, then backed off and was clearly outmaneuvered. Whatever credibility he had left both at home and abroad are gone. While I am happy we are not committing military assets to a fight that has nothing to do with us and does us no favors whoever wins I am a little upset that my President and country come off looking like an idiot.

Reconciling different perspectives on grieving
Guard Dog replied to alanschu's topic in Way Off-Topic
My condolences Alan. Grieving is an entirely personal process that everyone will do in their own way. I don't find your facebook tribute at all impersonal or inappropriate. Nonetheless removing it because your aunt asked you to was the right thing to do. I think Ros had a good point in his post. -
We're going to have to agree to disagree then my friend. If you put a Sunni & a Shia together in a room and informed each that the other was the last of his kind they would fight to the death. They will stop fighting only when one has wiped other out. And then they remaining ones will look for someone else to fight. No one can help them.

Ugly loss last night. Just terrible. Yeah, forget the division title, now i'm just hoping they hold on to the last wildcard spot. Not looking good right now. This road trip has jut killed the season.

Ahhh the first day of the NFL season. GF is coming over. She's a big Titans fan (I LOVE women who are into sports, not THATS sexy) so were grilling shish-kabobs and watching the games and later on.... who knows!
