I was out to take paddle board pictures of my wife and my buddy, Andy. Arriving in typical FloridaHillbilly style (late), I only got there in time to see the boards loaded back up. Ah well. Hanging out turned into an offer to go get some lunch to catch up with my friend. Knowing I […]

“Just an Air Rifle”….That Changed History
BlueTang sent me a link to a video (see it below) regarding the Lewis & Clark expedition that talks about one particular piece of gear they carried, a repeating air rifle. A toy you say? Not worth mentioning, you say? How about a .46 caliber, 22 shot repeating rifle with the equivalent stopping power estimated […]
Rabbit Cages
This is about the lessons I’ve learned from raising rabbits. Most of these are self-taught, and mostly due to doing things the wrong way the first time. And sometimes second. This is also timely for a couple of reasons. I’ve given out some rabbit samples to some co-conspirators that wanted to try it, thinking they […]
Review – www.zennioptical.com
I spoke about Zenni Optical a while back, but had never actually tried them out. Well, last week, I received my first order from them, and I’m impressed enough that I thought I’d share.
Product Review: hides® Classic

Invasion of the Giant Tiger Prawn
Remember when I went flounder gigging? Well, tried…mostly I was just wading around playing like I was a 12 year old. I mentioned seeing a lot and even catching some shrimp, and wanting to do it again, specifically targeting shrimp. Well I noticed one shrimp that was much larger than the rest, and was

Post-Op Ramblings…
I’m feeling much better today, able to move around with a lot less pain. Now to get back into a more “regular” sleep pattern. I’ve been sleeping most days and up most nights for the last few days, throwing off everyone’s daily routine. My posts have been irregular at best, and I’m feeling like getting […]
It takes all kinds
America was once referred to as “The Great American Melting Pot”, something I was reminded every Saturday as a kid. The military represents this very well, with young adults from all across this country coming together to sacrifice for the common good. And in my many travels, I’ve never seen another place that also shows this as much […]
