Protip: when the range safety officer tells you you’re leaving behind your brass that you policed off of the range, it’d be a good idea to go back and check, rather than just assume that she’s confusing your brass for that of the shooter next to you who happens to also be shooting the same caliber. Oh well…only out 20 military .30-06 shells and a plastic box. Did pick up 25 commercial shells on the way out, at least.

This would be perfect shooting weather if it wasn’t so damn windy today. :)

This is what happens when you try to rub your face off: you get put in an e-collar! She’s also on a couple of anti-allergy meds and an antibiotic. The way things are going, I suspect Hasher Malibu won’t be going to Parker, but will be spending some more quality time with the vet.
Mayonnaise Is The Worst Condiment
…and if you disagree, you’re a doody-head:
Mayonnaise Is The Worst Condiment
:-)
OK, so you probably aren’t a doody-head, but mayo is still pretty nasty:
There exists in this world a condiment below all others. It has all of the flavor of sawdust and the sublime texture of soap scum. Until recently, I was unaware that The Federalist, lovers of freedom, etc., was complicit in its spread. I rise today to defend America—nay, the world—against such scurrilous anti-food propaganda.
As all Americans, especially Texans, know, mayonnaise is a tool of oppression used by communists and bland-food lovers everywhere. It is a form of mind control designed to cow you into a sense of complacency about life. Food has flavor, and mayo covers that flavor up. It destroys your ability to taste.
What do you do to a food if it is too intense, and you’re not Texan? You add mayonnaise. In much the same way that salt is used to flavor food, mayonnaise is used to bland it. It is flavor’s anti-particle: it annihilates on contact.

Do you want this back in the White House, this time in the driver’s seat?
Hillary Clinton — Secret Service’s Bane
‘Good morning, ma’am,” a member of the uniformed Secret Service once greeted Hillary Clinton.
“F*** off,” she replied.
That exchange is one among many that active and retired Secret Service agents shared with Ronald Kessler, author of First Family Detail, a compelling look at the intrepid personnel who shield America’s presidents and their families — and at those whom they guard.
[…]
Ronald Kessler has studied the Secret Service and its relationships with dozens of presidents, vice presidents, and their families. His astonishment at Hillary Clinton’s inhumanity should reverberate inside every American’s head. As he told me: “No one would hire such a person to work at a McDonald’s, and yet she is being considered for president of the United States.”
Click through for the details. It’s a wonder nobody in the Secret Service thought to straighten her out.
