FBI 9mm Justification

If you haven't seen it yet, it's worth the read.  I think it mostly sums up what I've been saying for a while when people ask my opinion on the whole caliber war issue.  I can carry more and shoot it better, and it works just as poorly as any other pistol round.

Militarized Police?

Apparently one of the kids on our college radio station claimed our department is getting "too militarized" because we have an SUV.  I wonder if I could borrow County's Caiman for a day or so to put things into perspective?

I'm quickly learning the extra challenges of working for a University PD.  We don't even keep a long gun in the Tahoe because that's too scary.  We're also a tiny department, and we only have one vehicle, and we need to keep a bunch of crap in there at all times.  Combine that with Wisconsin winters, and it's darn nice to have a vehicle with high ground clearance and four wheel drive.  That's not militarization. That's just common sense.

KtKC... Plea for Donations!

Looking at the most recent standings... I can only turn to you readers and ask, "what more can I do?"  I'm sitting at like 10% of what I raised last year, which gives me a sad. :(

9mm LCR

Not gonna lie, I kind of want one.  I know my .38spc J-Frame is probably the better choice ballisticly, but there's some strange sort of appeal to this as a range toy.

KtKC Day 20

5k fun run this afternoon to kick of Pointoberfest at the big local brewery.  Fairly awesome that it also happened to be co-sponsored by Pints for Prostates, another Prostate Cancer Awareness group!

That is genuine hops growing behind us too!  I decided that if this becomes a regular thing, I need a better "running" kilt.

5.7 vs .22mag

MAC shoots some loads into some gel to show how they do-




Somewhat surprising actually.  I would like to see something similar involving a chrono, and a comparable .22mag with a 10.5" barrel to compare to the P90, but overall very cool.

KtKC Day 19

My schedule is making it a little tricky to get good photos this year, but here's another from yesterday.

The clouds were literally blowing between the camera and me, so you can't even see the lake in the background... It was actually pretty neat.

Bonus points if you recognize the rock formation I'm next to.

KtKC Day 18

A friend of mine wanted to go hiking at Devil's Lake State Park this morning, so we did.  That required waking up at 4am, but it was worth it.

The kilt certainly allowed for a great freedom and range of motion for scrambling up the sides of the cliffs.

I warned her that it could be a dangerous angle, but Manda ain't skerd. So here's some Stewart Royal at the Taphouse.

Nitro Baby

Celebrating the new furnace with some quality brews. Really just an excuse to get O'so Nitro Octoberfest.

How much do Americans love coffee?

A fairly decent amount.  I am honestly surprised that only 31% of Americans make coffee before doing anything else in the morning.

Furnace Fun

Cats are locked away in the guest "suite,"  and I'm stuck hanging out around the house while a bunch of guys do work.  It sure beats CO poisoning, but dang it makes for a boring day.

We called in a guy because the blower fan relay crapped out and the fan was running constantly.  He fixed that, but in his checks discovered the heat exchanger had a crack in it, which would do a great job of pumping exhaust fumes into the entire house.  Thankfully we were already planning to be out of town all weekend, and it's only chilly enough to just toss on a sweatshirt and be fine (50°...)

So... only replacing the furnace 5 years ahead of planned. Yay?

Good seats

Moments later Clark made a three run shot to center right. Shaping up to be a much better game than last night.

KtKC - Brrr

Just sayin'... a bit chilly for kilts,

 but it's not stopping me from going kilted the entire month.

Only in California...

Somebody found out that dimensional lumber is dimensional.

As part of the judgment Lowes was ordered to pay $1.47 million in civil penalties and costs of the investigation, as well as an additional $150,000 to fund further consumer protection-related activities.

Yup, tubbafors aren't actually 2"x4", and apparently that's false advertising.

MSBS Promo

Very cool.  I'm a quarter Polish too, and we worked a bit with some Polish RCP guys on my first deployment, and they were cool shit, so I was interested to see that TFB posted a neat promo video for the newest Radom carbine system.

KtKC Day 8

Ah, the joys of home ownership.  Also went to Menards to pick up a new storm door we ordered, somehow ended up loading it in the truck along with a new exterior door for the same doorway.  Go figure. (In our defense, it was a return that was a little over 60% off.  Dumb not to get it, since that was on the list for within the next year.)

*Safety disclaimer- I don't care about my shins. They are mine to abuse as I see fit.
