One of the most annoying

and, frankly, ignorant shibboleths of the left is “Guns were designed from the beginning to kill people”

It’s the fallback position when you point out that swimming pools, auto accidents, and illicit drugs kill more people than do guns. it’s what they have instead of reason.

First of all, it is a lie. Firearms were invented- and perfected- to give the weak an equal footing with the strong, so that physical strength and strength of numbers did not endanger the freedom of the individual. This is the standard answer to that, and always should be.

On the other hand, the one I like most is to begin clubbing them about the head with an aluminum baseball bat saying “Great! So you will be less dead when I cause your vacuous head to collapse because THIS was designed to play a game, not to kill people!”

Frankly, the only reason I don’t do that is the action of cracking one of their skulls has the same effect as a divide by zero incident. No thanks, I don’t want to be sucked into that rift.

The upside

to a saturday morning of puking in a bucket was the discovery of Frog Togs.

Frog Togs are a waterproof outer shell that breathe, and damn, are they comfy.

I didn’t use them on the fishing trip, but I did use them yesterday mowing the lawn. The ones I have are these, which are inexpensive and fold up to fit in the pocket of a big pair of jeans. I would expect these would be ass kicking emergency motorcycle wear. In any event I wore them in the rain mowing, and while I never had the need of them fishing, they did a great job mowing, and I’m glad I bought them. I may go out and invest in a better suit for hunting.

made in china, but at least made well. And a hell of a damned sight more comfortable than the PVC crap I usually end up with.

for over ten years now

Koalas have been dying off across Australia.

The culprit? Chlamydia.

It is not lost on me that this ties in with the timeframe my ex visited there.

Not that I’m saying she would fuck a Koala. But she would fuck a guy who fucks koalas.
