More Freedom Rally pics.........One of the better gyro vendors I've run across:Of course, if you're going to have a gyro, might as well have something extra to go with it: Conveniently located right next to the First Aid area, for those who overindulge in one way or another: The aid station has everything from a first aid ATV to a fully stocked ambulance. By the end of the weekend, all of these

The next few posts will be a series of images taken over the weekend of the 4th. Above, the road into the ABATE's property. The bandshell early Thursday. It won't stay this empty for very long....... One of many customs on hand and ridden in. Starting the weekend off with the motorized chicken hat. The vendors area before the crowds arrive.And the tents start going up.......more images later,

I'd never heard of this, but it's Saturday night, and I'm tired of studying. Tokyo Zombie: So far, what we have is essentially a Japanese version of Shaun of the Dead. But with Japanese 'fros, emasculation by zombie, and that weird Japanese schoolgirl fetish thing going on. Overall, 4 out of 5 stars for a zombie film in the horror/humor genre.

A young woman shot in the high center of her chest during the June 20th protests. In a minute, one can see someone who should have had a long life ahead of her go from awareness of the camera operater to shock to death. For being in a public area during protests. That's how free speech works in Iran. Wrong place, wrong time, wrong government. I personally think if the current government is

Reminds me of some of the paint jobs I see on those little Japanese cars with add-on spoilers and altered exhaust systems that sound like an amplified weed whacker. Good luck selling that for a decent amount some day.

The Wife and I have decided that to make better use of our motorcycles, we'll start looking for small, independent bar and grill/cafe places to eat. Number one, where we live is really, really flat. Which means there's not much of a reason for roads to twist and turn. So, once we're out of town, everything is pretty much straight, with the occasional stop sign. Riding for the joy of scenery

Gotta wonder what's behind a look like that. Let's see......narcissistic husband, fawning media and admirers, past history of marital "coldness", former model/french chick paying rapt attention to husband. Yeah, I think there's some serious hate and anger going on. Class act.

Going out to the garage to assemble something with a little more horsepower than me and an axe. Chopping wood is great exercise, until a rotator cuff goes or there's a trip to the ER to get the axe taken out of your foot. I'm modernizing before either happens.

This is a bit of a change from the usual subjects; the only thing this shoots is nerf darts. But, between work and school, I'm short on time and stored images. While not particularly graceful or ergonomic, it is an interesting looking piece. More on this gun from the source site, Gizmodo. It's in French, but that's what internet translators are for.

Apparently I'm the only one in my house that isn't afraid of flying fanged mice. Although I respect the little bastard, as he spent significant effort doing his best to naw through my glove. After scaring my kid by shoving the rodent at the camera, he was released to hopefully knock down the local mosquito population.

I've gotten up early to attend five hours of radiographic continuing education, returned home to construct raised garden beds out of landscape timbers, unloaded and dumped half a pickup bed of compost by hand, loaded twenty bags of pea gravel into the truck also by hand,and read sixty pages of my Information Systems textbook. I think I've had enough relaxation for one day.

I simply don't know where to begin.........although at this level of taste, I'm surprised there's not a stripper engraved carved injection-molded into the grips.

After the wife has had to steam-clean an area of our living room at least three times, plus paying a professional service enough money to buy some nice boxes of premium pistol ammo, I had to practice serious restraint not to strangle at least one dog tonight, having been left a steaming gift behind the couch tonight. While I was in the house, and the dog door was open for use. Funny, the dogs

Better late than never; between school, a rare opportunity to shoot, and this; this came last. Anyhoo.....Another fine Soviet design, apparently based upon the available low-skill, low-motivation labor force availabe, and with New Soviet Man ergonomics: a combination grip/magazine well canted opposite to the natural shape of the hand, combined with a thumbhole stock placed well behind the thumbs
