Well, greatest item for this week anyway. Plus the money will go to a great cause.
Check it out. You can buy Michael Yon’s body armor. Although, after reading his review of Dragon Skin you might not want to. I can personally vouch for the need for quick releases on body armor.
“Everybody wants to know how [...]

Well. I did post an article not too long ago about possible benefits of CCW issues and concerns. And although this incident isn’t a concealed carry issue (She was in her home when it happened) it is still a great story. Sad. But great.
She probably showed more restraint and composure that I could have.
For a [...]

Wow. This is over at little green footballs. This guy published the Danish cartoons of Mohamed and now the Canadian government has hauled him before some crazy government board because his actions might, maybe, could, possibly make someone not like a radical muslim. Hmmm….

I know that I’ve linked to The PsychoExWife before, but it bears another link. And a permanent spot on the blog role over there on the right. Although I have never experience what these folks are going through, it is not hard to imagine. I’ve been interested in this topic for the last 5 years [...]

The Belmont Club reports that the American death toll in Iraq is the lowest it has been. Ever.
And yet another reason to get your CCW permit. From the IndyStar.com (hattip to Glen Reynolds)

Is fat the new normal?
I hope not. “As Americans continue to super-size their value meals, the average weight of the population increases and people slowly adjust their perceptions of appropriate body weight.” But you can’t argue with that.
