      Old eyes issue

      Train for how you will do it for real. I wear readers for reading and prescription sunglasses for driving. The rest of the time no glasses. So I train with clear plastic safety glasses. The front sight is blurry, the target is blurry, but that would be my environment if things get real.

      GYROJET!! Who's the famous Hoosier?

      Back in the sixties as a kid I collected the Man From U.N.C.L.E. books, mostly copied from the screenplays. One of them talked about the Gyrojet and had the agents playing with them and carrying them with their standard sidearm. I believe they were useful in some unusual circumstance. I do...

      Electronic practice systems

      About six years ago I bought the G-Sight bore laser for my Browning .380 ACP. It worked great, probably did over 4,000 trigger pulls with it. Wore out a set of o-rings. I found all the bore lasers to be pretty identical. I used the software on my Android phone, I tried several different...

      Not in the Indy area, but around Attica there is a spring that is 99.9999% pure according to the owner. He ships tanker truckloads of it up to Kentland to a bottling plant.

      Network Pro Question

      If you were near Lafayette I would tell you to checkout Purdue's Surplus and Salvage store. I've sent server racks (years ago) to there in the past.

      Help, I'm Slippin' Into the Estrogen Zone...

      During my career I supported thousands of computers running hundreds of applications dealing with hundreds of tenured faculty at a major university and enjoyed it for forty-five years. But after forty plus years of marriage my wife's ability to change topics while talking without taking a...

      Today's You Can't Make This Sh*t Up News

      Years ago in the "Refuse To Be A Victim" class the LEO giving the class said 3% of the population commit 90% of the crimes. Anyone else heard those numbers?

      Aviation

      Was at the air show in Dayton, OH years ago and went through a Chinook (two rotors). The Army pilot said it really doesn't fly, it is so ugly the earth repels it!

      Safety VS safety?

      Ayoob said something about thumb safeties a while back. What if the bad guy gets a hold of your gun? Would you want it to have a thumb safety that may take them several seconds to figure out? I prefer no mechanical safety, carried one for years. Now working on my next EDC and it will have a...

      U-Turns, Ugh...

      At US 231 and Sagamore Parkway in West Lafayette there is a left turn light for u-turns. And to get to the county road a hundred feet further on you now have to go a quarter mile and make a u-turn. I believe it will be about 25 years before they will fix this.

      Feeling nostalgic

      Forty years from now you will still be around, just a custom AI running on the grand-kids 'phone'. They can 'call' and talk to you anytime. Be sure to make enough recordings of you so the AI will be as good as possible! :-)
