Larry's got the group CZ buy on again

For those of you who missed out last time, Monster Hunter Mastermind Larry Correia is doing a CZ group buy.

Of course, this includes Dan Wesson pistols, too.

So, if you missed out (or, like me, were too broke) then now is the time to contact the big guy at Fuzzy Bunny Movie Guns to get your price quote.

Trust me, Freedom Fiends, the prices are more than fair for CZs and DWs.

Hmmm... .45ACP.... DW 1911.... Bobtail.... Commander...

No pay check for almost a month still...

No full pay check for the past three weeks...

Anyone need some slightly used kidneys? Half a sad liver? Spleen?

My AO gets in the news

And it ain't good.

(programming note: My office doesn't have Firefox and the firewall is messing with Blogger functionality, sorry)

From KETV.

OMAHA, Neb. -- Omaha police are warning residents about a recent rash of daytime burglaries around the city. Investigators said burglars are hitting the southeast part of the city the hardest.

The problem is serious enough that police are posting flyers asking for help in reporting suspicious activity. They're also asking residents to lock all doors and windows, even when residents are home.

Mike Wertz said the warning is valid. Someone broke into his car near 162nd and Q Street, Thursday morning, stealing his wife's purse. Their garage door was left open accidentally.

Hise wife's car keys, house keys and cell phone were all missing, Wertz said.

Police said a few hours later, her credit cards had been used at Walgreen's and someone withdrew money from several ATMs.
Investigators said more than $1,500 was charged to one of the cards belonging to the non profit group, Omaha Parents of Multiples Club. Wertz's wife is treasurer of the organization.

"Just the fact that they didn't come into the house is a blessing," said Wertz.
Omaha Police Sgt. Meg Fricke said the Wertz family is lucky.

"There seems to be some where people are just knocking on the door, with no entrance. They'll go ahead and force the door open, go inside, ransack the home and take various items and a lot of electronics," Fricke said.

Investigators said beware of thieves initially stealing garage door openers from vehicles.

"We're seeing a lot of windows broken out. And all that's happened is the glove box is ransacked and the garage door opener is taken," Fricke said.

She said burglars will find the address of a home by checking information on the car's registration, often located in the glove box.

"You say 'phew nothing's happened,' and then two weeks later, three weeks later, your house has been broken into," Fricke said.

Wertz said his family isn't taking any chances. He said they've changed all the locks on their home.

Like they read my feeble little mind

When discussing frustrating or aggravating situations (such as traffic or boneheaded co-workers) I never, never, never use a phrase such as:

"Nothing wrong with them a .45 ACP won't fix."

It's bad juju and PR for boomstick owners.

What I instead say is:

"Nothing wrong with them a flamethrower won't fix."

Voila, instead of crazy, gun-guy to keep an eye on, I'm merely the funny guy who wants a flamethrower.

Well....

Now I can be both. (for some reasons, links are not working right. New job, still a bloody Mac)

Simply awesome.

Disturbing, yet amusing thought

Jane Curtain just brought to my attention that Saturday Night Live is now the same age as Jesus.

Discuss.
