Today was a man day! Hoo-yeahh Aarughh, Aarughh, Aarughh.. It started in the office where we are perfoming a massive remodel and a good deal of quality time was spent with a bunch of power tools, saw dust, pneumatic nailers, hammers, and the stereo blasting out classic rock. After this I attended a trade show for police, military and gun-nut people like me where they displayed all manner of toys, trinkets and endless ways to spend all of my money! Bullet proof vests, other body armor, back-packs, tatical holster rigs, concealed carry configurations of every variety; HOLY SCHMULTZ! Paradise! Following this delightful romp down gun powder nirvana my neighbor and I hit every gun shop in town to window shop for all manner of politically incorrect things that go bang! Not being one to waste the moment we loaded up the truck with many - many firearms, several cases of ammo, a couple more neighbors, and headed out to the desert. The lead flew, there was an abundance of hootin', hollarin' and yukking it up with brass flying everywhere. We finally ended the shoot when it got too dark to see. (All though, the muzzle blasts were spectacular!)
AAarughh! AAarughh! AAarughh! AAarughh! AAarughh! AAarughh! Aarughh! Aarughh! AAarughh!
It took a good fifteen minutes, three big flashlights, and a bunch of shuffling around to gather up and clean up the brass, spent ammo boxes, and at least the big remaining pieces of the flotsam and jetsam that was laid to waste from a couple-o-Gillion rounds!
(A 12lb pumpkin hit with a 7.62X54R rifle round from approxamately 150 feet does a stellar job of exploding into a mass of orange goo! Follow this with rapid-fire semi-automatic small arms and the pumpkin was obliterated! Whoot Whoot!)
I'm still sporting a manic grin and I smell of gun powder. The really cool part is that my little flower gave me a smooch and said she liked the smell of gun powder. What a Woman! (She is also onehelluva good shot!)
I think I'll sleep good tonight. This was just the ticket to relieve a pile of stress and release a torrent of endorfins. Nothing so theraputic as flying lead and power tools! Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh.....
