Muslims Kill Nun, Threaten Pope

The Byzantine Emperor that Pope Benedict XVI was quoting was Manuel II Paleologus, who said:
“Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached.”
What, like shooting a nun in the back [...]

Religion of Ignorance

So previously we couldn’t say or do anything to insult Islam or its prophet Mohammed.  Now, one can’t even quote someone from the 14th century who does as such without instigating a global fatwa against the Pope and by extension those which follow Christianity.
What is intersting is that in the cartoon flap, that sort of [...]

Terrorists at Abu Ghraib: “Americans…Please Come Back!”

It’s only been a week since the US handed over Abu Ghraib to the Iraqis and it’s being reported that torture is rampant. No, I mean real torture, not the “we allowed dogs to bark at you” or “laughed at you while naked” torture. The kind of torture that makes your skin [...]

9/11 Tribute: Kevin Patrick York

Hometown: Princeton, NJ
Age: 41
Kevin was born on September 6, 1960 in St. Georges, Bermuda. Although he enjoyed the travel of his military family, he yearned for a place to call his home. He lived in New Mexico, New Jersey, Ohio and Japan.
Kevin met his future wife at the tender age of 17. They relied on [...]

Irish Rout Nittany Lions

After nearly a decade of poor performances, bad coaching, under performing atheletes and overall Football Depression…the Irish are officially back.  Watching them last week against Georgia Tech, they looked like a great team that was having first game jitters.  They squeaked out a touch victory mostly with amazing defensive plays which kept GT from scoring [...]

Add ABC to the Surrender Monkey List

It appears that ABC has no backbone to counter the complete lack of integrity that CBS has been flaunting since RatherGate.   The scary thing about all this is just how much political pressure the Clintons apparently still have.  Just a few days ago there was a minor uproar over a movie being release which portrays [...]

The Golden Ticket for Airlines

What I’m about to suggest is not only completely un-PC, but both racist and completely contrary to virtually all “laws” associated with doing business in the good ol’ USA. However, I think that due to certain….well……issues….that this type of course of action is not only necessary, but could be a significant boost financially for [...]

Marlin Model 980S Bolt Action 22 LR

For some reason I’m not a big fan of automatic 22’s. Maybe it’s because most of the auto’s I’ve ever shot seem to jam fairly frequently. So I typically tend to buy lever action or bolt action 22’s as a result. If anyone has any suggestions on a great auto 22, I’m [...]

Charles Daly Field Hunter VR-MC

I picked this nice little shotgun up at Wal-mart of all places. Anyone who has ever been to the sporting goods section at Wal-mart knows that they actually carry a nice lineup of firearms manufacturers, from Benelli to Marlin to Mossberg to Savage. Naturally they carry typically the lower end models of various hunting rifles, [...]

David McCullough: 1776

Everyone raved about it. And for an historical novel, which are typically a dime a dozen, that says something. So I picked it up on sale at Barnes & Noble last week thinking I’d slog my way through it over the course of a few weeks. Little did I realize I would [...]
