But first -- Gun Sale Flash

How about a chance to buy more than a dozen MI carbines, several GI 1911s and A1s? Or old Colt and SW wheelers, or EBRs by the dozen -- all in one place? And that isn't the half of it. Some 500 guns -- most of them interesting -- go on the block in nine days.

It's as good an excuse as you'll ever have to visit  Arcadia, Iowa.

The link gives you an overview and will take you to each individual weapon. There's also a portal to internet bidding, just in case you somehow omitted putting Arcadia on your bucket list.

Be alert to the 10 per cent internet buyer premium and the transfer fees. Also, if I were you I wouldn't put a lot of trust in the net bids listed so far being actual bids.

I'd like to attend, but probably won't. A full weekend in that kind of crowd is beyond my tolerance limit. Besides, I could probably spend my entire net worth in the first two hours, and I doubt Ben will print up three of four pounds of new C-notes just for me.

Weather flash; South Carolina flash

Locally in the Camp J vicinity ...  the revised forecast calls for a 60 per cent chance of unexpected visitors, leading to a severe housekeeping event. Be on the lookout for sweeping, dishwashing, gusts of extreme dusting ... along with possible window washing and a lesser chance of shelf paper. ... all resulting in lowered expections for sustained verbal output over the next 8-to-16 hours.

In South Carolina, hazy conditions continue to reduce visibility to near zero in the salt marshes up to a short-hoot and half-holler in higher elevations. While an evangelical innundation remains possible, forecasters point to demographic data showing hard-shell, high-wind affiliates make no more than one-third of the population, while close to half of all Baja Kalankians report no church afiliation atall. Ground reports are numerous of Ron Paul sightings from low-country snob territory up to the good-ol-Piedmont-folk hills.

Uh oh. Black Helicopter Alert

The TMR this afternoon suffered a no-knock entry from the Eff Bee Eye snoop service.

They found me via Speaker Tweaker who could not possibly be a confidential informant, so I can only suppose he's a listed subsersive, too.

It may be too late, but a tinfoil hat goes on my modem right now.

Well I'll be a simulated SOB

It is against the law in Iowa to pretend to be drunk  in the park.

I'm safe enough cuz I write most all of my stuff snug in my Camp J sanctuary. But I guess it means I can never go Wi-Fi mobile.

JAGSC -- anyone-- what the Hell kind of reasoning creates a law like this?
