The greatest SMG ever!

The Tangent At Hand

.......... This is the part where I pretend that you are in the room with me and I'm just talking out loud. Free flow thought. Rambling. Ranting. Tangenting on my own tangents. Y'know, stuff. I may update this page as seldom as several days at a time, or twenty times a night depending on how wired or bored I am at work. You get the really good quality tangents when I'm hyped up on supercaff. In fact, I think I'll go get some right now. That'll force the creative juices for sure!
.......... Beware! The author of this page does not condone the use of conservative thought, antidisestablishmentarian ideals, Marxist economics, or anything Ford makes. Read the following drivel at your own risk of understanding me.

HAHAHAHA!!! Geocities, I have conquered you! Think you can keep me from updating due to a silly misdirected log-in screen? Never! Lost my password? It matters not. Anyway, on to my reason for being here. This was almost the worst christmas ever. Too many people stressing out, not enough stuff to do, way too much time spent sitting in front of Trillian hoping someone would come back from their away message so we could chat. Let's pretend I went on the same anti away message gripe I always do and move on. Things improved dramatically on the 26th when Adrienne got back into town. Spending a day or two with her was enough fun to make up for all sorts of things. Playing a few quick games of Airsoft was a blast too. Plus, Welbly is back in town so I get to hang out with him and talk about guns, Airsoft, turbocharged sports cars, the military, and all sorts of stuff for hours on end. Some of my favorite topics, as I'm sure you're aware. Last night we went to Miyabi's (gooooooood stuff) to meet a group of import tuners who live in the area. There were 4 or 5 really nice RX-7's (all gen 3) and even more MkIV Supras. They were -very- sweet. I nearly choked on my rice when someone asked one of the guys why he didn't bring his 1000hp Supra and he said he just wasn't in the mood. They passed around a copy of Sports Compact Car laughing at the guy on the cover since he was at one of the national events they all went to. Apparently the guy is a big poser. Oh well. An interesting look at yet another subculture. There was a really nice Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo with so much work done on it that I barely recognized it. Wow, was it nice! The sort of thing that makes me want to give up my plan and just get a decent job again right now so I can afford more toys. More to come, I gotta run to work...

I just spent the past 6 hours fooling around with math and physics (relax, nothing is burnt) and made a web page to answer a question I hear only too often. Does Airsoft Hurt?

I got my brand spankin'' new AEG in the mail today, w00t! Santa came early and was dressed like the UPS wanker. I know it was Santa because the UPS wanker usually just taps on the door and rushes off assuming that nobody was home. My world crumbles around me as I wake up to a yellow "Sorry we missed you" sticker. No such thing today! Package was left for me (Lyndsay actually) to find on the steps for me to enjoy! This thing is the coolest. Now I'm almost mad I have all this work put into the M4 to make it into a CQB weapon. Oh well, I'll live. Now all that is left is to get several more clips and go play some Airsoft with it. Airsoft anyone? Oh, plus, while running around last night with Patrick we discovered that he old field we used to play paintball at is a LOT easier to get to now. If you don't mind parking on the side of the road that is... I don't mind. I'm just nervous about what people will think as they tee off from the golf course by where we park. 30 people walking into the woods wearing full BDU and combat loadout proudly caressing what look like very expensive assault rifles might draw a bit of attention... What do you think?

For too long, Osgood Hardware has been a thorn in my side!

Last night around midnight I got back from a two day expedition to go play Airsoft in an abandoned factory out in Lebanon TN against their local police and swat teams. 84 players showed up for that game (a bit more than the facility could really entertain) but it was still a knock-down-drag-out good time. I posted some of the details on the forum and even created a folder just for Airsoft chat. I know, I know, there's only 80 bazillion airsoft forums in the local area, but this one is mine so there. Any games I intend to plan will be posted there (and maybe here) so give the forum another visit and be sure to call Chuck an asshole while you're there.

Heh heh heh, Wombat sent me this one. Ever hear of a book called Six Steps to Spiritual Revival? Apparently it's popular. Check it out and be sure to read the Our Customers' Advice feedback. They have a unique book recommendation.

THIS SPACE FOR RENT. No, not really. Sorry about the sparse updates. I've just been very boring lately and haven't felt like taking the time to compile it into a digital form in which to bore my 14 loyal readers. Today, however, I actually had the inspiration to write something. I've had plenty of ideas of things to write about (remind me to tell you about my theory linking E.T. to G.W. some time) but never remembered it until I got home. Even with my trusty-rusty digital assistant. Speaking of which, we ran out of credit on our phone bill (700 dollars worth of credit lasted us approximately two years) and after a brief house meeting we opted to just shut off our phone. That's right, as of 15:16EST the number formerly known as HELL-FUN was disconnected and David Warner's name was removed from the digital listing. We've all got cell phones that mostly work down here and the vast majority of the people who were calling were bill collectors looking for Pat. Fuck 'em. I'm not paying a tidy sum each month so that my room-mate can be harassed. Anyway, as I was driving home I noticed the gas prices at the Raceway were the best I've seen in about a year. Since I haven't talked to my father in months and I know how cheap he is, I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone. I called and told him the good news and he said he'd rather buy from an American gas station. Sure, it's a Raceway but it's run by a family of middle easterners. Maybe India, maybe Pakistan, maybe Iraq, who knows. My father is really big on keeping money spent on domestic products not imports because he doesn't like to see his hard earned money go overseas. What's he so afraid of? Does he think that the reason their gas is so cheap is because they have a secret deal worked out with the Saudi Arabia to get their oil at a steal thus cutting out the American corporations and giving all the money to ter... OMG!
