So, rather than be making a fool of meself and risking keelhauling at her delicate hands, just remember me rules for the day:
- Cuss like a sailor!
- Drink like a fish!
- Act like a pirate!

Deja-fuuuuuuuuuuuu – noun – The mysterious feeling that you get when you have to repeat all of the work you did previously because of some silly little problem that didn’t creep up until you were 90% done.

Dennis, of Dragon Leatherworks, has a great interview with his local TV news up. He runs a great business, and I love the Flatjack I got for one of my revolvers. He’s also willing to put his money, or rather his life, where his mouth is. Dennis relocated to Tennessee in order to get to a more business and gun friendly environment. I have moved around a lot, but to do it because of what you believe in is truly brave.
He’s one of only two businesses I put on my blog, the other one being Michael’s Custom Holsters. Both of them do excellent work. Go on and give them both a look.

Sorry, but the content I had planned for this evening turned in to an anger and profanity filled rant, which when edited down to keep the blog PG, amounted to two prepositions, a comma, and a couple of line breaks. It’s now consigned to that great bit bucket in the sky, and I’m going to have a drink, watch some football, and get some rest. I really need to stop looking at the political news in the evening.
I’ll try again tomorrow.

“And why not? Surely you don’t disbelieve the prophecies just because you helped them come about. You don’t really suppose do you that all your adventures and escapes were managed by mere luck? Just for your sole benefit? You’re a very fine person, Mr. Baggins, and I’m quite fond of you. But you are really just a little fellow, in a wide world after all.” — The Hobbit
My Take – We all make history every day. Maybe it’s something that will be sung about by bards centuries from now. Maybe it’ll just be a “And then they ….. ” kind of history. Either way, we are all part of the story of humanity. Our present was dreamed of by our ancestors, and we will be remembered by our descendents. Our choices are whether or not to surpass the dreams of the past and how we wish to be memorialized in the future.
