A chronicle of vile and pernicious truths.
About This Blog
The right to keep and bear arms, occasional attempts at satire, frequent recourse to sarcasm, and anything else I can think of. Oh yeah, and pipe smoking. Sometimes H.P. Lovecraft. And obscure Monty Python references when applicable.

View Article  Springfield EMP 9mm review
Randy reports on Springfield's new Enhanced Micro Pistol, billed as "the smallest 1911 in the world."  Made smaller because it was built for the 9mm cartridge, not the .45 ACP.

Good review.  Check it out.

Randy mentions trying out the new Wolf Gold JHP with a 147-grain bullet.  Although the Wolf Gold is a new line, the 147-grain bullet isn't a new thing.  When I carried a 9mm, I loaded it with Hornady XTP in that bullet weight.  My P-95 was 100% reliable only with 147-grain ammunition.

(Let the umbrage at suggesting the P-95 isn't perfectly reliable begin).

I would have just left a comment over there about the Hornady ammo but comments aren't turned on and there doesn't appear to be an email address anywhere for contact.
View Article  Lovecraftian geekiness
I got around to doing a book hunt that's been bugging me for a while.  A book I knew I had, but had misplaced.  I had scanned all the pix from this book a long time ago but lost them all in a crash and was starting to think of uses for the scans again.  The book is S. Petersen's Field Guide to Cthulhu Monsters:  A Field Observer's Handbook of Preternatural Entities.

One odd thing is that inside the back cover was a folded-up map of the Dreamlands.  Where did it come from?  I know it didn't come with this book.  It doesn't look like it was ever attached to anything.  It must have come with something else, but I don't know what.

Anyway, I can always use some of these for certain decor.  I might even make myself a couple of t-shirts if I can stay under the Ch**s**m radar.

The thing on the left was described but never named by Lovecraft.  After his death, one of his cronies borrowed the critter and called it a byakhee.  I think that the only original Lovecraft story it appears in is The Festival.

In Search of the Second Amendment

The TRUE story of the American right to arms is told by some of the greatest names in American constitutional law -- professors at Yale, UCLA, Fordham, George Washington University, George Mason University, and other institutions, as well as by lifelong scholars of the Second Amendment, such as Steve Halbrook, Dave Kopel, and Don Kates.
