Arent you…?,Clinton,MH reminder,gasoline,SOBsale, notes to a wife

I actually had someone at Job #2 recognize me the other day as Commander Zero. That was pretty unexpected. I wouldn’t say that I make any effort to be uber-discreet about it. I mean, there isn’t a huge Batman/Bruce Wayne dichotomy going on here…I’m pretty much the same person rather than two completely different personalities. Anyway, it was a pleasant exchange and, as always, its interesting to hear other peoples opinions and take on things.

From the “Saw It coming A Mile Away” Dept.:
Clinton has officially thrown her hat into the ring. How’s she gonna distinguish herself from Obama? How’s Obama gonna distinguish himself from her? Platform, my friends, platform. It’ll be who feels they can best represent the Democratic values and one of those values is gun control. It’ll include who can outdo the other on ‘tough on [crime/terrorism/gun violence]’. So…get your goodies while you can. Buy ‘em cheap, stack ‘em deep.

This has been a public service announcement.

Reminder: Mountain House order goes in on Feb 1. Your last day to get a piece of the action is Jan. 31. Ordering link Another #10 can order will be in June.

Local gasoline prices have dropped to $2.05. This is the cheapest I’ve seen it here in a while. Part of it is probably because the stuff is now in the winter ‘blend’ which is part gasoline and part, what?, ethanol/MTBE and that sort of thing. I need to see if the winter additives are detrimental to long term storage…if they are I’ll have to make it a point to rotate out stock during summer months when its ‘pure’ gasoline.

Ranger Joe’s is having a sale on the Spec-Ops (made in USA) SOB buttpack. Marked down $30 from $60. Not a bad piece of gear, but not perfect. Good size for things like emergency winter accessories (much like this one), mission-specific gear, and just a general junk bag. I’m using it, for now, as a bag to keep all my field support gear for my CZ550…you know, cleaning kit, spare mags, lens caps, lens cleaner, range/data cards, extra swivels and sling, ammo, etc, etc, etc.

Remember I got one of the LMI a buncha HK91 mags for Chrismahanakwanzakah? I put a note in there for him to show his wife so she wouldn’t think he spent money on them. I saw him the other day and I asked him what his wife thought of the note. He said that she said that note kept her from killing him when she saw the large quantity of what she assumed were expensive magazines. I am teh amusedx0r.

  1. I haven’t had a chance to try any of the Mountain House foods yet, but I want to get in on this order if they’re any good (and I assume since you’re putting this together that they are) – have you tried any that stood out as being better than the rest?

  2. I like the spaghetti, ;asagne and chicken/rice ones. Theyre all prety decent. Esp. if youve been out in the boonies all day and are tired and hungry.

  3. Those 72-hour kits seem like a good deal, a better deal than buying an equivalent number of meals in the one-pouch varieties, plus you get some extra veggies. What’s up with that? Are they smaller servings or less-good packaging or something?
