Cats...

Apparently somebody knocked a screen out of a window and got out yesterday.  As of midnight (home time) the very well camouflaged Lila cat was still at large, and probably not feeling very happy with her decision (a couple rather serious rain showers passed through in the 7 hours or so she'd been out so far, and we're talking one of a pair of dedicated indoor house cats.)

Pretty frustrating being on the wrong side of the planet and there's nothing you can do other than say "stick a dish of food on the porch and some of the coffee sacks she loves to lay on next to them, and hopefully she'll get hungry and cold enough to remember where the house is."  Fingers crossed that she's simply waiting for the rain to stop so she can wander back, or figured she'd just start trying doors and somebody will call in the morning.

Beer vs. Coffee

and the creative process.  So I wonder how the coffee stout one of my local breweries just re-released would stack up?

80% Poly Lower?

Sounds interesting.  I'd be willing to give it a shot (heh).  Looks very well thought out, and requires no jig to complete.  Looks to be $100, plus some time with a dremil I guess.  May be something to play with down the road.

Acheivement Unlocked

Sit in the flight deck of a C17 in flight and chat with the pilot.  Pics when I have better than the worlds slowest interwebs.

Hurry Up

And wait.  In this case for a flight out of KAF.  First step in the journey home though, so it's a good thing.

Daily Dose of Cool

A series of photos of cartridges precisely cut in half.

Half the challenge is figuring out what most of them are (the ones pictured above are the most "normal" of the bunch.)

Multitasker Series 2X deal!

Rainier Arms is clearancing out their stock of Series 2X Multitaskers to make space for the Series 3.  If you're looking for a great deal on the best AR15/M16 field tool out there.

Fast

I'll leave the bad humor to Caleb, but holy wah that's fast.

Fairly Awesome

Interesting...

Apparently a S&W 1911TA will feed and fire a .40S&W...

It just won't extract the empty case, and that's where things got interesting.  Pay attention at the range peoples.

Sneak Peak - Multitasker EDC Tool

SSD put up a couple pictures and some info on Multitasker's upcoming EDC Tool.  All sorts of awesome there.
