A Very Important General, USA, has recently bought the house next door to me and plans to move in when he retires later this year. I've visited with him briefly and he seems a bright and pleasant guy.
So, when we come well-aquainted enough, I will put Tam's Latest Hit under his nose and see if he laughs as hard as I did. If he does I'll propose him for high political office.
Sample: ... if the Frogs and Jerries are still worried about Tsar Vladimir I, let them cut a few social programs and reactivate an armored division or two on their own dime...

With apologies to Lawdog
On the one paw, don't we pay police officers in part for adequate marksmanship?
Officers ______ and ______ responded to the 1300 block of College Avenue on a report of shots being fired. _________said he approached the scene with his weapon drawn and saw the dog running at full speed toward him and _______. He said he shot three times with his handgun, and the dog ran away. It was not hit.
On the other paw, a dog charging head on doesn't present much center mass, so maybe we should give Officer Friendly a pass.
On the third paw, don't we pay journalists for a certain completeness in their reports? There not a syllable of explanation of the "shots being fired" call which led to the Fido confrontation.
That leaves me with one paw to spare. Put 'er there, Pawdner.

Ron Paul update and compassion note
So they keep talking about cold-hearted libertarian zealots? Not so fast.
Paul people swept the Minnesota convention floor with Mitt Romney. Thirteen delegate slots were up for grabs, and Dr. Ron captured 12 of them. So many that...

U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann, whose name appeared on a Romney slate Saturday, did not initially get enough votes to join the Republicans going to Tampa. She only avoided a run-off election when a Paul supporter ceded to her.

Our day at the range
It isn't that Ken and I had nothing else to do, It just seemed like a good idea to take the battered RST4 down to pond and make something dance a little.
About 60 rounds of cheap Winchester bulk pack (one FTF) at 30 feet or so. Some from a rest on the Rusty Red, the F150, but mostly fast and off hand in a Weaverish way.

I can think of worse ways to pass a little time, even though I recently read an expert who said serious shooters should never "plink." Get lost.
