They Know

I Know how my readers love their Swamp Donkeys!

Cabela’s security cameras snapped pictures of the moose on Thursday, a cow estimated to weigh 500 pounds. It ran through the parking lot and disappeared into a wooded area between shopping plazas. A number of sportsmen, guides and outfitters saw the moose at Cabela’s which has prompted quite a bit of attention for the store and its Moose Lottery.

Cow Moose wandered right through the Cabela’s parking lot on the day before the Maine Moose Lottery. This is the next town South from where I grew up, and I’ve also seen Moose hanging out in Farmer’s fields in Cape Elisabeth.

“They’re not going to get that one,” said NEWS CENTER outdoor reporter Bill Green who is a Registered Maine Guide. “She’s too smart. She can take advantage of the beaches and the shopping and there’s no moose hunting for a hundred miles.”

They seem to know, don’t they? Follow the link for pictures of the Moose, or check this video for more:

“Gun Death” Cinder Block

Here’s another infant death, but look at the weapon:

A Pennsylvania man is accused of fatally striking his newborn with a cinderblock twice because he and his girlfriend couldn’t afford a second child.

Hit most people twice with a cinder block and a little steam behind it and it’ll kill their ass. Maybe we need “Common Sense” laws on Cinder Blocks. Maybe a background check before buying one? Maybe we should require people to buy no more than one cinder block a month. I mean what else would you use one for besides mass murder?

Neat Observation

We’re heading home and listening to ACE Podcasts and I asked the wife to delete the old Adam Carolla show and put on a Larry Miller show. She did and went back to reading C-Net reviews on ebook readers. (She’s getting a Kindle BTW).

Now before her Epilepsy surgery (and before she even had her first seizure) these acts would have made her VERY motion sick (and if you’re stuck in a car with her it makes for very unpleasant company) so I guess the surgery removed the motion sickness part of her brain too.

(I suspect that part is the right hipocampus)

Neat!

“Gun Death” Baby Killer

No Guns needed for Infants.

A man who punched, shook and squeezed his infant son to death had hit the child two weeks before, a prosecutor said Thursday during a plea and sentencing hearing in Forsyth Superior Court.

Frankly it seems that shaking and hitting seems to be the #1 murder weapon for infants. I guess infant murder are irrelevant to those who use “Gun Death” as a metric. I wonder if they ever think about that?

Super 8

Yeah, go see it!

Don’t wanna take the Weer’d word? Listen to Linoge, he nailed that review.

Not only is it a period piece on screen, I think it takes a lot of storytelling notes from kids adventure movies from the 80s.

Also, holyshits where did they get so many rock-solid child actors for one film???

Hail To The Chief

So a little Thunder head was rolling through So the folks and I sat out on the Porch to watch it come through. Very light rain, thunder, but no visible lightening, so it must have been all cloud-to-cloud. The it looked like it was getting lighter out.

Then the rain, HEAVY rain, and then HAIL!

About the size of marbles to peas. Pretty crazy, and there are tree leaves EVERYWHERE from them being shredded by the iceballs.

No damage, thankfully! Neat to watch!

Some of the choice specimens.

Father’s Day

I’m up in Maine, its a surprise. My Alibi on why I would stay in Mass for Father’s day was essentially I was disorganized and apathetic. Needless to say Dad was deeply surprised.

He was talking to a close friend who asked if I’d be heading up for the weekend. Dad said: “I don’t think he even knows its Father’s day!”

LOL, sounds a little like me…but just a little.

Happy Father’s day for all you Fathers and have a good weekend.

“Gun Death” Hand of God

A few guys sent me this story:

Investigators say a man has died while in the act of raping an elderly South Texas woman…He says the 5-feet-7-inches tall, 230-to-250 pound man sneaked into the woman’s house and raped her at knifepoint. During the attack, he said he wasn’t feeling well, rolled over and died. His body was sent to the Nueces County medical examiner in Corpus Christi for autopsy.

Gutierrez was a registered sexual offender on parole from a sentence for aggravated sexual assault and indecency with a child.

SO many bases to cover here. First let’s start with one of the reasons why I do these “Gun Death” stories. This man raped a woman at knife point. Now this was Texas, she COULD have had a gun, but didn’t. People you NEED a gun, and you NEED to carry it. You may not need it today, tomorrow or right now, but one of these days you’re going to have a fat rapist laying on top of you with a knife to you neck. That’s when you NEED a gun. If the antis have their way there will still be lots of times when you’ll NEED a gun, but you won’t be able to have one.

Also note he used a knife. There are probably a dozen knives just on my desk, 7-8 more on the shelf beside me, and probably another 2-dozen in my kitchen. I have knives I don’t even know about. A good friend of mine makes knives. His daughter doesn’t let him bring new knives over to her house unless he wants to take a knife back. She doesn’t have ROOM for more knives. Prisoners make knives out of anything solid while they’re in their cells.

Knives aren’t going away even if they ban them, and they can’t ban them because humanity will kill the overlords who attempt to ban eating steak.

So the rapist isn’t going away, but gun rights are transient, and America is one of the few nations that respects that. Keep that in mind!

I tapped the “bad justice” tag because we have a rapist sex offender free to rape again. Again CARRY YOUR GUN! The Justice system doesn’t get that a few years in the joint suddenly won’t make a monster who thinks raping is cool act like a normal person. A bullet in the brain WILL make them act like a SLEEPING person, which is much less dangerous.

Last let’s just be happy that he’s done. Karma called collect, god was watching, fate was polite. Whatever you want to say a dead rapist by any means is a good thing.

Thanks to Wallphone and Whipped Cream Difficulties for sending me this story.

Anti-Gun “Common Sense”

So I was driving home today and I saw a car run a red light. It turned out when he jacked the red he had cut in front of a marked cop car.

When the light turn green I went the same way as they did and I didn’t see the car pulled over.

Using Anti-Gun “Common Sense” there is a red light loophole where it is perfectly legal to drive through red lights because this guy drove through a red light and didn’t get caught.

Since this is the case we need to pass a “Common Sense” law where it is now illegal to drive through GREEN lights. This should curb the horrible traffic violations.

Now some might claim this is a prohibition on driving, but we must note that this does not apply to traffic signs, or YELLOW traffic lights.

Its only common sense and the 34,000 people who die in traffic accidents every year is too high, and we shouldn’t stop adding “Common Sense” restrictive laws until traffic accidents fall to O.

It’s only “Common Sense”!
