Art of the Dynamic Shotgun – outtakes

Outtakes from Magpul’s latest, “Art of the Dynamic Shotgun”

Yeah… I want to get that DVD. As much as I’m a proponent for the AR-15 man… something about the shotgun is singing to me.

Now THIS is a boilerplate

I just received an email from one of my US Senators.

Dear Mr. Daub:

Thank you for your recent letter.  I am glad to have the benefit of your ideas and appreciate you bringing this matter to my attention.

You may be certain I will keep your suggestions in mind as these matters are discussed.  I appreciate having the opportunity to represent you in the United States Senate.  Thank you for taking time to contact me.

Sincerely,

JOHN CORNYN
United States Senator

 

 

How… personal!

I have no idea what this is in regards to (their reply system could have at least quoted why I contacted them). My guess is the muscovy duck FWS issue, which they are unlikely to have a stock reply about (e.g. my previous email to him regarding some tax issues with gun makers received a boilerplate “gun rights” reply since they merely keyed off the word “gun” and not “tax”).

My tax dollars at work.

Went to the bookstore to look for a book (what else?). While walking the aisles I saw this:

Alright! Way to help the cause. It’s not like depressed people are sensitive and low on self-esteem. 😉

 

From the road – bathrooms

To bring Sasha home we had to drive 2000+ miles to Georgia and back. Spending about 37 hours on the road, we saw many interesting things.

Typically when we have to take the kids into a public restroom, it’s just a typical bathroom.

But when you’re on the road, I guess people have a penchant for getting laid while travelling. Almost every bathroom (men and women) had condom machines… typically right above the urinal. Youngest was too short to really see, but no question that Oldest got an eyeful while he stood in the stall.

And then, there’s bathroom graffiti.

Oldest hasn’t said a word to me one way or the other, but I’m sure all sorts of questions (too embarrassing to ask Dad) are now rolling through his head. 🙂

To bring Sasha home we had to drive 2000+ miles to Georgia and back. Spending about 37 hours on the road, we saw many interesting things.

In our drive across the southern Unitied States, if it wasn’t a chain like Dunkin Donuts, then it was always a “palace” that sold donuts. I lost count of how many “Donut Palace” stores we saw, and as far as I could tell they were all locally owned and 100% independent (at least, judging by the storefront and signs).

What makes a palace go with a donut? Why not a Donut Hut? Cruller Castle?
