Misc. Friday Ramblings...

Never go gently into that good night...

• Donate if you can.


• Aftermath Imagery.


• Zero Tolerance I can get behind.
  

  President Bush warned against price-gouging of gasoline Thursday in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and said looters should be treated with zero tolerance.
  
  "I think there ought to be zero tolerance of people breaking the law during an emergency such as this, whether it be looting, or price-gouging at the gasoline pump or taking advantage of charitable giving, or insurance fraud," Bush said in an interview on ABC's "Good Morning America."



• Nerves frazzled over Katrina.
  Professionals are human too.


• More powerful than any bomb or weapon...
  ...the spoken word.


• The animals need to eat too.
  Yes, that is a spider. They live in the desert. Also in Iraq.

Friday FIREPOWER!

Now you know. In times of disaster and civil unrest the government isn't - can't be there to help you. You will, at least for some period of time, be on your own. You have a responsibility to your children, to your family members, to protect them. Are you up to it? Do you have a gun?

Well, do you?

Now, lets leave the depressing issues behind. With the destruction of this week, I thought I'd bring a little bit of hope for restoration. Dean's Gun Restorations was a topic on THR this week, with before photos and after photos being given for a M1 Garand. I'll let the photos speak for themselves.
