    Mr. Rogers died today.

    As you might have suspected, that is an urban legend: http://www.snopes.com/radiotv/tv/mrrogers.asp Regardless of his politics, I mourn him.

    UW group gets a lesson in shooting

    When I was at UW, the College Republicans were always doing something interesting; hosting David Horowitz or erecting a huge "Bush" banner in the middle of Jesse Jackson's speech.

    Firearm & Musical Instrument Combos

    Ah ah, Bainx, not all Strats are made in Mexico. My American Standard was made in the USA. I do love Ricks, though, and would like to own a 4001 bass some day. You know, in the last 10 years, I've seen some truly astonishing developments in guitar equipment: the Parker Fly, the Martin...

    Firearm & Musical Instrument Combos

    I like Steinbergers and Glocks. I actually think the Steinberger and the Telecaster have a lot in common, especially in their design philosophies. I might say that Telecaster -- 1911. Leo Fender is the JMB of guitar design (though the comparision might hold up better if JMB hadn't known...

    Steinberger -- Glock (both are made of synthetics and both have seemingly important stuff missing, but work fine)

    Disturbing police state incident in Arizona

    If we don't complain when they take every freedom but our guns, exactly what good are guns anyway? Of course, you know that they have already come for the guns. Don't believe me? Where is the BAR? Where is the Ma Deuce? Gone and taken. I guess I'll try to aim for somewhere in between...

    Force against mentally retarded?

    I used to work with mentally retarded individuals as part of a community protection program. Every client in this particular program was a sex offender, so obviously they had "poor impulse control". Even the company trainer told me that there is a point where you must abandon the so-called...

    Who carries a "stinger"?

    James Keating's little punching doohickey: http://www.jamesakeating.com/catalog1.html Surprisingly effective. You hold it in your palm and the point sticks out between your fingers. They work very much like brass knuckles, without the...historical baggage.

    Single Edge... Facing you or him?

    That instructor sounds like Eric Remmen, maybe. Edge up/point forward is a perfectly valid technique. Besides the advantages already mentioned, filleting a foot-long strip from a bad man's arm can have a definite effect. Parry the attacking arm out, index the blade on the upper forearm and...

    Any Tomahawk fans here?

    Sure, a khukuri is better for chopping, and even for throwing if you're that type of guy. But I have found the tomahawk to have some unique qualities. Now, putting aside the problem of toting one around, a tomahawk is an excellent choice at close quarters. At a medium range they have the...

    N.Korea Defense Chief Vows to Punish 'U.S. Hawks'

    I did not know that "hawk" was a term in common usage by the Joyful Children of the Invincible Commander. Unless of course, the rays of his immortal leadership now shine upon UC Berkley.

    OK, who changed their names from TFL?

    I'm not sure why I picked my old handle on TFL. Morbid thoughts about our future, combined with a desire for anonymity. Anyhow, this here's the name Frank Sr. gave me.
