Random News And Notes

It’s Super Tuesday. Primaries are being held in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma,Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia and American Samoa. I think we can dispense with any coverage of the contests. We all know who’s gonna be the big winner.


On a related (or not) note, FaceBook and Instagram all went down today, at least partially. If I were a conspiracy minded individual, I might take that little factoid as something more than a regular outage given the day. . .


Your intrepid editor has spent an unusually large amount of time doing firearms training this winter. I suppose I have to thank the weather gods for a very mild, snow-free winter up here in CNY. It’s 5 March, and there is nary a flake of snow on the ground here right now. Normally, I cannot get into my training facility due to the snow. Last year, I was unable to access the range until the end of March.

Trust me, this is going somewhere other than a discussion about the weather.

My shooting is in mid-season form. The times and scores for the various drills I regularly run are what I would expect to see in mid-July, not early March. So, what’s my point? Shooting is a perishable skill, and even a short layoff can and will erode your performance. Get out and shoot. If you have any questions about what drills to do, I conveniently have a post about that. You can find it here.


I have to wonder how long Fani Willis is going to keep her law licence. The latest out of Atlanta shows she seemingly engaged in witness tampering/intimidation. I am no Kreskin, but based on what I’ve seen the judge in the Georgia case, Scott McAfee, looks ready to disqualify her from the case. Judges generally do not take two weeks in a case like this unless they are working on an iron-clad opinion for removal.


Remember when Keith Olbermann was a mediocre sports anchor on ESPN? Yeah, good times. Sports Center with Dan Patrick and Olbermann was must see TV for me. Too bad he thought anyone was interested in his take on politics. Anyway, he’s gone an unhinged – even for him – rant on Twitter X that seems to involve his love for urine on his face.

And Aloha means gooodbye. . .


Alexandria Occasional Cortex is getting a taste of her own medicine, and she doesn’t like it. A pro- Hamas protester accosted Ms Cortex outside a theater in New York the other day and wanted her to call what’s happening in Baja Israel genocide.

How’s that shoe feel on the other foot Sandy?
