Picked it up today
This little beauty.
And exactly on the timestamp. The state of Kalifornia didn't get one extra minute on my waiting period. And I'm heading to the ranch tomorrow at 0-dark-hundred for to try it out. And maybe find a turkey.

Quote of the day
"The man wants four good men. That's me and one extra."
Heh. I don't expect anyone to know the reference. I didn't (though I've seen the show in reruns). From here:

Thought experiment
Actually, just plumbing this tiny audience's brains for amusement.
If you could pick just one personality to be able to visit before he/she died, which may be soon because of advanced age, in order to let that person know how much you appreciate their contribution to the arts, who would it be?
My top three, in roughly chronological order of their stardom:
Patti Andrews
Gogi Grant
Chuck Berry

My new toy
I've wanted one for years, just started the paperwork on it today.
Go here and move your cursor on the fourth one down (6.5 inch blued). I'd like it if the rosewood grips came on the blued models but I'll have to settle for the black rubber grips.

Why I love the blogosphere
[This is a repost of an old 'Pints post, especially for the darling Lemon Stand; links updated to her repost of an old favorite]
And why I love the dear folks who drop by this tiny little corner of it.
A few days ago [Well, actually it was in 2007 – Ed.] I mentioned a picture I got a kick out of, which was really only part of a picture, being on the back of an article clipped out of the Red Bluff Daily News. Today the lovely Lemon Stand dropped by and mentioned that I should have scanned it. Well, yeah, I should have. So I did and emailed it to her.
Naturally, the dear lady knows the picture, the ship, and the context. And she has posted it (after very kindly sending me a large, full-color copy of the original).
Yes, I am ashamed that I did not recognize the Mighty Mo. I blame the beer. And the ignorance...
