Cool

There is talk of setting up steampunk shooting matches. This has definite possibilities. It will be done with 22lr pistols and rifles that have been safely modded to have a steampunk look.

The same post that has this information also has a link to Boneshaker. This is a book that combines steampunk and zombies. I might have to get this book.

Discussion on The Best Defense, Season 2, Episode 2

Tonight’s episode talked about what should your family do if you have a someone break in. Do you have a place set to retreat to? Does this place have a phone? Does it have a means to defend yourself and/or you loved ones? If you tell family members to head there, will they just head there without questions until everyone gets there? What if you have someone coming in through other home entrances (any window or door)? What is your plan?

Thoughts for the day

  1. If I public transit could work for me, I would start taking it for my own safety. I am tired of dodging the idiots who can’t even stay in their own lanes while driving in a straight line. Almost always, they are yacking on a cell phone. It makes me understand why people want to ban cell phone use while driving.
  2. I love my wife, even if she occasionally steals one of my firearms. ;>
  3. I’m hoping the forecast holds for this weekend (supposedly highs in the upper 80s). If it does, I think I will finally give sporting clays a try.
  4. I ended up buying a Western Digital 1TB external drive for backing up my desktop. I am going to try using the backup utility with WinXP for now. Though, I will probably buy a copy of Norton Ghost eventually.
  5. With FenCon coming up next month, I need to watch our spending. I also need to get my steampunk costume finished.
