The other day I was standing at the open refrigerator looking for some lunch meat or perhaps a bucket of lard, when I thought to myself, “This never happened when I tuned people up”.

In that moment i realized, back in the day when I solved a lot of my interpersonal communication problems with my fists, or a chair, or a baseball bat, or a piece of 3/4″ thinwall conduit, I never overate, never had a weight problem. When someone pissed me off, or acted a fool around me, I would adjust their attitude. An attitude so adjusted rarely needed readustment. Oh, sometimes a little tuneup.

Thankfully I don’t do this anymore. On the other hand, when someone pisses me off, some commenter on some thread perhaps, or some ignorant moron like Alan Hevesi mouths off, I head for the fridge.

Maybe I need to tune someone up. Lose about fifty pounds. Wonder where I should start. Damn, that’s a long list.

The first thing you taste in the morning should not be dog breath, unless you are A DOG.

We will, if all goes well, meet at the Buffalo Range, in Ottawa, Illinois. Per person is $20. I will see what I can find out about a group rate. I have not personally been to this range but I’m told it’s a good one by several people who go there frequently. I’ll be checking out more as the week goes on.
