    I got about 5 knives for free at work today. They are cheaply made, but they'll still cut.

    We picked up a box of 6 individual boxes of brownie mix. Just something for a special occasion, instead of just rice or beans! We need to practice making jelly from our local wild blueberries and bear berries.

    Actually, I was thinking they were more like "rocky mountain oysters"[gone]:sick:

    It must be a colloquialism. They are black berries that have a rather mild (read tasteless) flavor. They grow on the %^&$ &*%%#!! thorny vines that line each side of a creek around here. I usually use a machete to walk through them. Never paid much attention to them until I found out they were edible.

    I got a stripped AR lower that I'm going to sit on for a little while. I haven't decided how I am going to build it, as a duplicate of the one I have now (16" M4gery) or go with a longer barrel for longer range.

    Fedex will be dropping off my bullet proof vest in a couple of hours. I got a level 2 goldfex vest from www.bulletproofme.com .

    The wife and I topped off a few staple supplies last night just to make sure we won't have to get anything for the next few days - just in case there is any rioting going on.

    Bulletproofme.com is an awesome store. They will sell to you without being in the military or law enforcement. They understand.

    When I ordered stuff from them a few years ago, they sent me extra stuff along with my order. That's service.

    Yeah, the only thing they did was ask why I was ordering one. I told them the truth. I work as Armed Security for our church, I'm also an assistant manager and RSO for a local range.

    As far as extra stuff, they included one of the "sweat wicking" t-shirts with my order free of charge.

    A bunch of premium green 6" glow sticks from http://www.glowuniverse.com . I gave some to friends who don't carry flashlights. The premium green are good for 12 hours, longer if cold. Other colors don't last. Stated shelf life 2 years.

    A massive load of powder, bullets and primers from The Sportsman's Warehouse, along with other reloading stuff. The buggers will need to call in an airstrike to 'disarm' this angry White God&Gun-clinging Freedom Loving American citizen!

    If y'all read of a smoking crater west of Tallytown - you'll know they got me..... [ROFL]

    The ol' KLR hasn't ridden that low since I carried 80 pounds of camping gear.....
