Well, I'm headed out of work a bit early, picking my boy up from school and we're going to spend a couple hours making 22rf empties. Blue sky and warm. I'm thinking he'll be at least this happy. The lucky bumm has Monday off from school, so as a concerned parent I'm taking the day off and seeing if we can't find a hare or two to shoot.

Sitting in front of the fireplace and drinking vodka on a blustery winter day while showing my buddy, Bill, how to assemble a FAL lower receiver. I figured out how to build one first,..made up some tools,..then half the guys at work had to have one. For a while there, every time I turned around there was somebody with a box of rifle parts knockin' on my door. But it was a lot of fun,..always turned into a social event with lots of liquor and food,...and I take more than a small measure of pride in the fact that I became aquainted with the process to such an extent that I can build a damn fine example of an FN-FAL even with my blood alcahol level hovering above .2.

One of the happiest days of my life After my wife and I trying for a long time my daughter was born in Jan 07. I wish I had pictures from my son being born in 89. I traveled for work for several years and spent the first year and half of Emily's life on the road 2 to 3 weeks a month. I left it last July and came back work in my hometown( I was commuting 120 miles daily when I wasn't traveling). I spend every night at home now and get to fish/shoot in the evenings with my son. My Dad lives up the road and I see him every couple of days. There are plenty of 3 generation hunts every season. The good times are right now for me.

A government is the most dangerous threat to man�s rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims.
