Get from the Fed and State!

Mayor Bing... We the people are tired of giving to Detroit!  Why don't you figure out how to do for yourself... Maybe the unions can give Detroit a cash infusion?


"If we could go out and identify another 40,000 people that were missed, and it brings us over the threshold of 750,000, that would make a difference from what we can get from the federal and state government," Mr. Bing said at a news conference Tuesday. From WSJ.com

Book Review "Aftershock"

Well this book will make you want to run right out and sell all your assets and buy bullets beans and bullion!

Well not necessarily all of that that but at least it is a start.  I really hope these guys are wrong in their prediction of the future economic mess my, yours and ours (is that a word "ours") parents got us in.  Our grandparents, I am sure, are not happy in the way in which they, the baby boomers are leaving our country in financial ruin. There are some good pointers in here if you want to save your almighty dollar by placing them in different financial vehicles.

Took me a while to read and will keep it around as a desk reference as I shuffle my funds to diversify.  Yeah, I will be picking up another 1000rnd of 5.56 as well.

Day 7 Get some... More!

Another day at the rifle range the "Location of Hit or Miss" trainer.  An electronic contraption that displays where you shoot when you shoot at targets 75M 175M and 300M  I was a "spotter" if you will and sat on the range in front of a computer all day long. When I finally shot, I shot 160 bullets down range in one sitting.  80 with no armor on, 80 with armor on.  A big difference.  Good training, just long days.  Always fun to the pull the trigger.  wake up 0445 Chow at 0530 bus ride to the range at 0600.  At the range until 1400 bus ride home, clean weapons, prep as necessary for next day, chow, shower, rest, repeat!


A couple of observations; my new call sign is "Crocs" for my day glow orange crocs I wear in the shower.  Several of us have very similar political views which is scary and in some ways sad for the way we view the state of our nation politically and economically.  Perma-dirt has set in I will have to take a picture to better explain!  Note the action photo of the ejected bullet flying through the air... They are hot when they land on skin!

What slowing economy?

Here in OV, within the last month, there have been 4 housing starts, one condo start and a restaurant opening. This is just a few of the places off the main strip. I am sure there are other housing starts, i just have not explored enough! Good news!
