    Rustmeister's Alehouse on March 12th, 2010

  • Stupid Comment of the …
    Rustmeister's Alehouse on March 11th, 2010
    I don't know of the what, because I can't think of anything bigger than an epoch at the moment (emphasis mine) :"I think what we need are people on that bench who have been legislators, people who are lawyers, people who are academics. You look at our Supreme Court and all these people, all they know is working with people in black robes. We have g...
  • A Poll!
    Rustmeister's Alehouse on March 11th, 2010
    Go here to take the poll. Gotta love the way the question is worded:Should state legislators attempt to override a court ruling that blocked handgun-carry permit holders from going armed into places serving alcohol?Like I said in comments there, they word the poll to get the answer they want, but they're not getting it.....

  • Prediction

    Less crime!We all knew that, but to see it reported by the local media is refreshing."Most crime, including violent crime, is down substantially," he said.While violent crime statistics are on the decline, another number is on the rise: valid handgun permit holders in Shelby County. On January 1, 2006, there were 28,601 in Shelby County. Two year...

    (Alternate title: It's getting to be that time again.)Saturday was the grand opening of a new bike shop in the area, Big Creek SuckerPunch, a shop specializing in Suckerpunch Sally's old school choppers.I took pics, of course. There were lots of nice bikes:...

    I just ran across an extensive list of questions and answers regarding everything cigar at CigarAdvisor.com.Here's a couple:Should you use the top tray in your cigar humidor?They say generally, no. I use my top tray, but I don't fill it up. I just put a few there for a quick grab n go.Mixing cigars in your humidor.They say no biggie, unless you ha...

  • The Benefits of Light Exercise
    Rustmeister's Alehouse on March 5th, 2010
    Just a quick health note: I've been going to the gym on a semi-regular basis for over a month now. Nothing much, just a mile, mile and a half on the treadmill (walking) and some time on the weight machines.Lost a little weight, feeling better, but the real benefit?I haven't had a gout attack since I started going. Not even a twinge.I'd like to pro...

    Bonnie sent me this via shared items. It's not on her blog, so I can't link back, but I'm definitely linking what she sent:Wrong About Obama IIHe was throwing the gauntlet down, cognitive kill switch style. "Oh, I can't criticize Obama? I can't say anything because it means I'm a racist? Well fuck you too." That guy did not have an airplane, but if...
  • Starbucks and Seattle
    Rustmeister's Alehouse on March 3rd, 2010
    First off, a belated thank you to Starbucks for their policy of following the laws of the land. Now, of course, various bedwetters are protesting that hunks of metal, wood and plastic are being legally carried into those establishments.If you're in or around the Seattle location, feel free to drop by and pick up a cup of joe soy double shot half ca...

  • The Hurt Locker
    Rustmeister's Alehouse on March 2nd, 2010
    Saw it, liked it.There's some controversy as to how accurate it is in portraying things "over there", but I have to say this: it's a freaking movie, of course it won't be 100% accurate.Of the three things mentioned, only one caused me to have a "JAG reaction". That's where somebody does something in the movie that is so totally outside their skill ...
  • Dog Training Bleg
    Rustmeister's Alehouse on March 1st, 2010
    Not training actually, it's just that my new dog climbs our fence and gets out into the neighborhood.Details:The fence is six foot high hogwire, our dog just puts one paw over the other and climbs out. It doesn't matter if we're home or not, she just wants to get out and explore. She's medium sized. Like my girls says, she's smart, in a bad way.So,...

    This just in from Thompson Cigars - the CAO America "Four for the Fourth" box and an additional three "Bottle rockets" (Churchill).This is one of my favorite cigars, being a medium-full smoke with lots of flavor.I've had my eye on this deal for a while, now that I got my income tax refund, I went ahead and jumped on it....

    CO Arms now has a link over on the side. They're a local gun maker I just learned about. Took a drive by there during lunch, but didn't want to drop in unexpected. It's a machine shop, after all. they have work to do. =)I do hope to talk to them in the near future, though.Thanks to Linoge for finding them.....

    This was to be a passing reference to current events, but it looks like things are about to get interesting (emphasis mine):Did trainer slip into killer whale tank or was she pulled in?A witness told CNN affiliate WKMG-TV that the whale approached the glass side of the 35-foot-deep tank at Shamu Stadium, jumped up and grabbed the trainer by the wai...

    We haven't even fully integrated women into our armed forces yet.However, the Navy has taken another step in that direction.Via Abby, who echoes my sentiments exactly:I do have to admit that serving on a submarine is one of those things I don't think you could convince me to do with a cattle prod and a suitcase full of unmarked twenties...but to ea...

    Rustmeister's Alehouse on February 23rd, 2010
    Most "conservative" politicians didn't get it - the reason Regan was elected wasn't because of his patriotism or belief in God, but because of quotes like these:Government does not solve problems; it subsidizes them.Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselv...

    The good news? The Mayor say we need only two:Despite being a vocal supporter of red-light cameras, Millington mayor RichardHodges says he will not support a plan that would put cameras at more than two intersections.A couple of things:1. Two - like the number of terms you're not going to serve after backing this money-grab?2. I'm going to become a...

    As I close in on my first year of cigar appreciation, I'd like to revisit a few smokes I tried early on, before I knew squat* about cigars. CAO Italia, Rocky Patel Vintage 1992 - First, I've grown to like the Italia a lot more than the first time I tried it. I still get spicy notes, more white pepper than anything else, but those notes come across...
  • Meridian 59
    Rustmeister's Alehouse on February 19th, 2010
    A little while back, I posted about Meridian 59's owners, Near Death (now referred to "Now Dead") Studios had closed shop and the game was no more.Looks like news of M59's death were premature:Psychochild and Q, after some back and forth, have officially ceded ownership of Meridian 59 to Zandramas and Zaphod, the long long long time ago original cr...
  • All This Snow is a Result of Global Warming
    Rustmeister's Alehouse on February 17th, 2010
    That's what someone told me the other day. Had a pretty reasonable explanation, too. Increased heat causes more water vapor, etc.So, even IF I accept that, what's causing the snow to stay on the ground for going on two weeks?I've lived in the Memphis area since 1969, and four days is the most I can remember snow sticking around for (actually it was...

    First and foremost - How 'bout them Saints!To clarify, I am not a band wagon jumper. Understand, before the Titans, the only teams we in west Tennessee had to follow were the (then) St Louis Cardinals and the Saints. Seeing as my family is from north Mississippi, and Ole Miss (Archie Who?) fans from way back, the Saints were a natural choice for me...

    Sorry for my lack of posting, I just don't have a lot to say at the moment.Maybe once the Herenton - Cohen fiasco gets into full swing, but then again, I'm pretty much fed up with Memphis' former King, so I may ignore it altogether.I will say this: GO SAINTS!Have a great weekend, everybody.....
