Misc. Friday Ramblings...

I'm gonna barbecue your ass in molasses! - Sheriff Buford T. Justice
  • It's Photoshop Phriday.
    What a creepy bastard.

  • Save a life today.
    Learn to give UPS!

  • NCSoft 2, Marvel 0.
    In a Wednesday e-mail to many of the experts in the online game community, Greg Lastowka, an assistant professor at Rutgers School of Law, noted that "the terms of the settlement apparently allow the NCSoft character creation engine to stand, which is a victory for the players."

    But he also echoed von Lohmann's concerns.

    "However, Marvel's claims of player infringement have not been formally rejected by the court, which means analogous claims might be pursued by Marvel, or a like-minded company, in the future."

    Good news for the City of Heroes/Villians guys. Still can't forgive them for Issue 5 and E.D., though.

  • In Japan, nothing takes precedence over a good shit.

  • Computer spots a blockbuster from box office flop.
    Awesom-O 4000 unavailable for comment.

  • Careful of who you meet on the internet.
    It just may be someone you get to know in ways you never want to.

  • Lost...their damn minds.
    Seven "Lost" cast members have been cited by Honolulu police.
    Who can blame them? After being stuck on a island for so long, I'd be in a hurry to get somewhere else as well.

  • Supervillians beware the minds of Fark!

  • The Schizophrenic Muzak programming at work is the reason I wear headphones and listen to streaming audio. I heard the following, in a row, earlier this week while in training:

    Mamma Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys - Ed Bruce
    Joy to the World
    Bye, Bye Love - The Everly Brothers (all accordian, no less)
    You Can Do Magic - America
    Saved by Zero - The Fixx


Friday FIREPOWER!
I started my collection of handguns when I turned 21. Needless to say, that was some time ago. It was also during a time before the accessory rail became a popular option on handgun frames. So, I carry a Surefire flashlight as well as the firearm, occupying both hands. What if I wanted a laser as well? How about both?

For an older Glock, your option was pretty much only a recoil rod replacement like the LaserMax. However, now you can have a second option, Crimson Trace Lasergrips. I've mostly seen them on Berettas, but they are a nice option for the Glock. Gunblast has a current article on the Glock version. Take a look.

Also, the F22A is now fully operational. Only a dozen, but still, they can hopefully kick major ass. They already do on paper and in flight-sims.
