What do you want to do with it - target shooting, concealed carry, competition shooting, do you want it to be eye candy or do you simply want a general purpose gun? I would enjoy a quality piece that looks good and is fun to clean. Breaking it down, cleaning, reassembly ... very relaxing. More enjoyable than shooting, I don't know why. Oh, I do know why. Because shooting introduces carbon that needs cleaning. Every round ... I'm like, that's gonna need some cleaning. Pretty much this I really enjoy cleaning my guns probably as much as shooting them. I have a concealed carry license but have no intention of actually doing so as I just go to the range every blue moon and keep it unloaded in my office (meaning not accessible if someone ever broke in)

Wait, how exactly does a Zimbabwean lion fall under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? Smells of a government agency overreaching in order to jump onto a high-publicity case. "Palmer’s actions could have violated the U.S. Lacey Act, a conservation law meant to shield animals from harm. The act, tied to a United Nations treaty for the protection of animals, governs the actions of Americans who violate the laws of foreign governments."

But people do tend to care more about the animals than other people. I remember reading several articles on this and will see if I can dig up links if anyone cares. I believe the order of precedence of ****s given is as follows 1. Human babies 2. Animal babies 3. Adult animals 4. Adult humans 5. Gwyneth Paltrow Also, I personally have no issues with hunting for food either but trophy hunting isn't something I can get behind Yes please try to find them, I have pondered this question and believe that the reason it appears that people care more about animals is that animals are defenseless and are part of the ecosystem and in the case of rhinos there really are a finite number of them. Also we care about rhinos and we care about impoverished people so I see no conflict But I'm interested what is your objection to trophy hunting? I'm wary of anyone who wants to kill something for sport. Food, yes. Population control, yes. Trophies, you lost me. Anyway, links

It's been bugging me for a while so I kept looking and found this about math vs maths Not sure how credible it is but it's on the internet so you know. They also had an interesting video on the difference between how people say numbers in the US vs UK Haven't found anything as in depth about sport and sports though
-
Why do Brits say sport instead of sports and maths instead of math? Is it just us being unique? I never really paid that much attention to it before but I've been hanging around more expats and it sounds odd to my ear and really stands out Other than that just school and work and work and school

I roasted a smallish (skinless and boneless, oh no) pork shoulder (pernil) a couple days ago for about 5 or 6 hours. Pretty simple with some sofrito, recaito, roasted garlic cloves I had laying around, and homemade seasoned salt just cover, bake, wait. Ate a lot of it right out of the pan and made some tacos and enchiladas (I know it's more traditionally a caribbean dish but I'm a southwestern boy) with the rest of it

I've been growing my hair out because for some reason my wife doesn't like the traditional buzz cut of my people. I hate the feeling of my hair touching my ears and it's making me go something something...
