The Monster in my Garage

Posted by jc522 On October - 30 - 2009

So I’m about to do an oil change on my suv in my garage. I pop the hood and unscrew the oil cap, I put on my gloves and go to get the pan to drain oil into. As I’m reaching down to grab the pan, I see this beast of a monster. I don’t even know what to call it. This is what happened next. Read the rest of this entry »

What do you mean turkeys don’t go on sale?

Posted by jc522 On October - 15 - 2009

turkeySo since I worked on Thanksgiving weekend, I was forced to cook Thanksgiving dinner on my second day off. I went to the grocery store the day after Thanksgiving to look for a turkey, expecting a sale I was sadly let down. Everyone knows the law of supply and demand and how it governs the cost of things, so how come when the demand for turkeys went down the price didn’t? Reluctantly I paid full price for a turkey and took it home, I had 24 hours to defrost the bird. Impossible? Almost. Here’s how I did it. Read the rest of this entry »

Shoot em up, again

Posted by jc522 On October - 4 - 2009

ar15Okay so in an earlier article told you I went to the shooting range. I finished it off by saying that I finished off my rounds and went home, I wasn’t being completely truthful. The truth is, I went and traded in the Springfield XD-40 for a HK USP .45 ACP. In fact, I didn’t even stop there. After that, I traded in the HK USP .45 ACP for a Colt AR-15. If time was on my side I probably would have traded in that Colt AR-15 for a WW2 era Thompson M1A1 45ACP. Read the rest of this entry »

Biting off more than I could chew

Posted by jc522 On October - 1 - 2009

bitingA good friend of mine informed me that she would be starting her own clothing line and recently she really got the ball rolling on her new venture. Everything is almost set for her launch in a month and I wanted to share part of this experience with her. I wanted to be the first to interview her, so I asked. She was so excited about the idea that she wanted to put the interview on her company’s website. Read the rest of this entry »

Check your shame at the door

Posted by jc522 On October - 1 - 2009

shame I love eating shellfish, especially crab, but I’m severely allergic if the shellfish is dead before it’s cooked. I break out into hives all over and my throat begins to close up a bit, but nothing a little Benadryl can’t fix. So when I finally had the chance to eat dinner at an all you can eat snow crab legs place, naturally I jumped on the idea. Read the rest of this entry »

My first time at the shooting range and why I had to do it.

Posted by jc522 On September - 26 - 2009

shooting range

Everyone has a list of things they’d like to accomplish before they die, a bucket list if you will. Well somewhere on my un-numbered list was to shoot off a firearm, and what a better time to scratch something off that list than now.

I’ve seen enough action movies before, how hard could it possibly be right? You just load it up, cock it back, point and shoot. there has to be more to it than that? Why are there shooting clubs, competitions, forums, and a general lifestyle around it? What am I missing out on? I set out to answer that question by going to the local shooting range. Today would be the day I discovered something new, and I was ready for it. I already know what guns were capable of and how responsible you have to be, so don’t think I went in there being a reckless fool hell bent on shooting anything in front of me.
