Picture(s) A Day – 15 January 2010

I’d call today a good day   The weather was gorgeous, the bank account has been newly refreshed, and work went better than usual 8)  I even got a few decent pictures
The first couple of pics today are just basically local shots as I was out and about during my 30 minute [...]

Picture(s) A Day – 1 January 2010

Ah, yes, the first day of the new year went pretty well all things considered.  I worked (YEE HAW!!!) and got quite a bit of extra $$$ out of the deal which was pretty nice.  I’ve been really tired lately and not sleeping too well for loads of reasons, so I took a nap after [...]

My New Digital Camera – Nikon Coolpix S220

My mom and brother found out at the beginning of the month that I was in desperate need of a new digital camera. My Canon still works for lots of things, but the auto focus is having trouble at a distance, it keeps forgetting the date, and there’s a few particles of dirt that [...]

Time to Apply For My C&R License!

It’s finally time for me to just go and do it.  I’m going to pick up a $30 money order after work here today and get it and some paperwork sent off to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives
Those who know me already know that the BATFE isn’t exactly my favorite [...]

Signing A Petition For 100% Inflation – My Head Truly May Explode

Grab the duct tape and bailing wire for this one.  Wrap them tight around your head.  You’ll need them

Um, yeah.  I’m not a big fan of the whole Illuminati thing, but this goes far beyond that.  It’s one of those things that I really can’t wrap my head around.  I’m sorry, but I [...]

You Know, The Skies ARE Pretty Dark in Nevada…

So I’ve been thinking again. No, no need to duck and cover this time.  This hasn’t anything to do with dangerous things.
There’s times when I’m actually rather bored lately.  I’d love to do something like going shooting in the desert, but then ammo costs $$$.  And by $$$ I mean LOTS of $$$.  For example, [...]

Possible New Project/Hobby/Mental Illness – Home Brewing Beer, Wine, Cider, and Mead

I have a confession to make. I don’t know if it’s due to having been keel-hauled by Captain Morgan a few times too many over the years or if it’s just because of the accumulation of imaginary stamps for my trips around the sun, but I just can’t drink straight hard alcohol like I [...]

Picture(s) A Day – 22 October 2009 – Open Desert, Sunset, and “Recoil Therapy™”

Work today… what can I say about it?  Well, if you read my previous post, you probably know about how it went and what I had planned for the short duration of leftover daylight remaining after I left.  “Recoil Therapy™” is what I call it.
“Recoil Therapy™” involves more than just the wonderful, first hand (or [...]

Picture(s) A Day – 12 October 2009

I’m darn tired again and have to get to work pretty quick, but at least I’m getting Monday’s pics posted
I had to go buy food for Ziva yesterday, so once again I ended up at Exotic Pets.   I tried to get a good variety of critters on camera and I hope you enjoy [...]

Picture(s) A Day – 4 October 2009

I have a confession to make.  My shoulder HURTS!!! But it’s a good kind of hurt
I took my new Maverick 88 out to the desert today for some introductory shooting.  Targets included a couple of pieces of cardboard, a couple of plastic bottles and jugs, and a couple of full cans of soda. [...]
