It's a pretty new site, though, isn't it? Wikipedia says it was only started in March of 2012. To me, that's not too long ago.

Hmm, appears so, but another fellow I read daily started linking to it almost immediatly so I guess I picked up on it pretty quick.

hey, the ArmyTimes blasted it's mocking tone a few papers back, so it must be good.

Gah, the ArmyTimes is a flipping rag.

In other news, I'm field with a strange desire to go get a haircut and call all the guys in my section and tell them not to go anywhere far.

So Emily Miller is tweeting about the Bachelor...I think I just died a little bit inside.

Who the hell watches the Bachelor anymore?

SPEMack618 03-12-2013 02:42 AM

Well, apparently, the list includes Emily Miller, my sister, and a smattering of her friends.

So that's maybe ten people?

YES! I finally made a GIF worthy funny. Screw you cracked and your commie commentators.

So in other news, I've finally come to terms with the fact that General Petraeus resigned in disgrace. Side note: I'm two for two in picking awesome ISAF commanders.

So in reading about it some more online, it struck me that Paula Broadwell looks like an older version of one of my Fraternity Brother's girlfriends. Like creepily so.

Just how did that get past the more seasoned and experienced members of his team/department? :confused:

SPEMack618 03-17-2013 06:13 PM

I'm willing to bet that those EOTechs were all bought with some form of grant money and no one in the department has any experience with them.

Do the NYPD use black Humvees then? If they did I would have thought they would be blue and white, and a more specialised variant rather than the standard one.

They're not NYPD; the one with the shotgun has a New York State Police patch on his arm.

They have at least one with a sound-based active denial system.

The Redhawk fits the cowboy action rig we got with a bunch of stuff we bought from my mom's friend a while back after her husband died (same place I got the Winchester 88) perfectly. Too bad the damn thing is right-handed

SPEMack618 03-26-2013 06:48 PM

So, in reading last month's American Rifleman, I read the story about the Colt Machine Guns the Rough Riders took to Cuba. One of which was purchases for a Trooper by his sister.

I showed the article to my sister and she said "Well, I bet he didn't get a cooler with the Colt pony on it."

Side note: She's moving out in six days! I get my gun room back. Just gonna repaint the walls.

The iconic symbol of manliness is sky blue walls with pink bunny rabbits. ;)

Last time I had a choice I went with Fire truck red walls and a Black ceiling. Unfortunately I couldn't get rid of the horrible orange carpet at the time.

Uncle Jesse was pretty cool. And Rebecca Stamos was pretty hot back then.

But that being said, I don't find a soft pale pink to be very appealing.

If I were you, I'd turn it into a man cave.

SPEMack618 03-27-2013 02:31 PM

It kinda was. My sister is four years older than me, so when she went off to college for her under-grad, her room, it was a very pleasent shade of blue then, became both my overflow storage room and my reloading workshop. And then it became my library.

Well, fast foward four years and I go off to college, but being the youngest, still sorta get to keep her room as my gun room. She completes her masters work and then decides to move home to work on her doctorate.

Which results in me having to relocate my reloading operation to the basement.

But thankfully, she got engaged, and she and her fiance are buying a house, so BAM! gun room back. Atleast for the next six months or so.

S&Wshooter 03-27-2013 05:28 PM

Man, I want a gun room

SPEMack618 04-03-2013 01:07 AM

I just found out that one of my NSIs from high school JROTC died in December.

I thought Chief would live forever.

Taught me how to make coffee, be a squad leader, call a cadence and the meaning of service.

I'm scrolling through a USA Network marathon of NCIS to get to Tuesday so I can set the WWE 2013 HoF show to record, and among numerous episodes of the show there's one single listing of it titled "Navy NCIS". XD

SPEMack618 04-08-2013 11:29 PM

I'm not up to speed on English politics, but I'm still astounded that people are celebrating the death of Margaret Thatcher.

I was always a fan simply because she allowed the FB-111s from RAF Lakenheath to strike at Libya for El Dorado Canyon. None of the other NATO allies extended the courtsey.

Because there's an unwritten rule in British society that requires us to treat her as the Antichrist because of some bad economic policy.

Ah. I feel that W. Bush will be extended the same.

Such a concept doesn't really line up with him, though. From what little bible scripture I know, the anti-christ is going to be charismatic and loved by the masses.

How in the hell can anyone even be dumb enough to try and make the argument that GW is anything but universally hated by almost everyone across the globe? :confused:

SPEMack618 04-09-2013 04:22 AM

Oh, I wasn't implying that W. Bush was the antichrist, just that when he passes away there will be a vocal crowd of happy hippies.
