    What are you Writing?

    Sounds like the "Deadlands" role-playing game... you might give it a check-out.

    What are you Writing?

    Longtime no *be*, Melissa... I drifted away a few years back after it seemed like everybody who'd made the Lounge so interesting and sometimes even fun was going or gone, and now having drifted by idly wondering what was up with the old haunt only to find that Powers is gone... well, it's not...

    What are you Writing?

    What am I writing? I just started a weekly feature on a major activism site--no link, because it's politics, though my column is kind of a melting-pot of whatever underreported stories catch my eye plus a lot of "Today in History" and commentary on various foods, beverages, books... a little...

    Name your favorite films based on true stories.

    The Great Raid. And who could forget the two big '70s military biopics, George C. Scott's Patton and Gregory Peck's MacArthur?

    Your Favorite Sandwiches?

    Right now, as far as chain-food goes I've been finding Jersey Mike's #13, the Original Italian, surprisingly good for fast-food. Meat's sliced fresh while you wait, but the pickles they use are worth commenting on in their own right, crisp, tart and just thick enough to give you a good...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Don't let AtomicEraTom or my Hoosier relatives hear you say that... though I'll note there's a REASON I don't drink with the relatives while visiting. LOL

    What Are You Reading

    The most tolerable things about it were Jennifer Garner's, er, "assets" ;) and the fact that whichever side the character he plays is on Ving Rhames does the tough-guy role SOOO well.

    Warbird Tech Series: Lockheed C-5 Galaxy.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Starting to get hooked on Castle... don't remember which season, but they did a very nice "noir tribute" episode. :)

    Your favorite movie quotes

    Don't get me wrong, I HATE Quentin Tarantino and Pulp Fiction (and frankly a lot of the CSI episodes he directed are just Too. Freaking. Weird. for me), but this one was good enough to warrant adoption and use... If my answers frighten you then you should CEASE ASKING SCARY QUESTIONS!--Jules...

    Dressing Down For Church Has Gone Too Far, CNN Article

    Sadly, Edward, that also describes the problem... at least on this side of the Big Pond, you frequently see people wearing things in public that make you wonder how they avoid Indecent Liberties charges.

    The Return of Vintage DI S E A S E S

    Also, maybe "Autism Speaks", if they're serious about it being "Time To Listen", could actually try LISTENING to some of us on the more communicative end of the spectrum and having a meaningful dialogue rather than just PRESUMING to speak for everybody with their narrow little mindset? And don't...

    The Return of Vintage DI S E A S E S

    Or perhaps autism is something else? Speaking as an autistic (Asperger's, specifically) myself, I tend to see it as a different "brain architecture" with geniuses, village idiots and everything else in between ranging from Rain Man to Bill Gates or Thomas Jefferson just like the "neurologically...

    The Return of Vintage DI S E A S E S

    Oh, don't wind me up about that twit McCarthy... I have an autism-spectrum neuropathology myself, and the whole subject is a frequent rant for me.

    Zootshooting

    Yeg, modifying a magazine to fit the Kahr 1927's requires altering the hole for the magazine catch--the simpler fix is swapping the standard part out for a GI-spec one. There's actually very little in common between the closed-bolt 1927 of today with the original open-bolt 1927 and its...

    The Passing Away of John Erickson, Fellow Lounger and Friend to Many.

    My condolences. As one of the "Middle Generations" of FL, I do have some memory of him; he was not only a stand-up guy but welcoming to the "fresh meat" too. Rest in peace, compadre; you are missed. Slightly offtopic: I'm starting to think we need a Roll Call to see who from the old days...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Mysteries at the Museum, Castle and NCIS.

    Missing Loungers Whom You Miss.

    Oh, don't know if it's updated but here's Carebear's LinkedIn page: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/matthew-carberry/b/3b7/634 He completely dropped out of visibility on the firearms boards we frequented too, last login of September 2011.

    What are you listening to?

    Brian Kirk's score CD for NCIS. "My Boss Is a Sniper / Gibbs's Rules", "Bag and Tag", and "Abby in Wonderland" are fast becoming favorites...

    Missing Loungers Whom You Miss.

    Haven't seen Carebear around the gun-boards much lately either. Ditto a lot of the other members of the Fedora Lounge Rifle & Pistol Club...
