Thoughts On Facebook
There’s a “social networking” website called “Facebook“. I was a bit leery of such places for a while. The whole “My Space” and such whoopla left me cold. And then I started paying more attention and saw that there’s actually some value to these places. So I set up an account. [...]
An interesting take on Thanksgiving Day’s meaning…
Here’s an interesting (to me anyway) take on Thanksgiving Day. It comes from my friend Hobie’s blog “Lady Liberty Defended” and was written by Old Ironsights, another internet friend. I like the following statement especially, “I’m a carnivore, not a scavenger.” I can share that sentiment, although circumstances have lead me to the place where [...]

An Anniversary Bash
We started holding public meetings in Pereira on the first Sunday of June in 2002. That first Sunday we had our family (six of us at the time) and one other family – of three at that time. Since then the Lord has blessed us and many have joined us in worshiping and studying God’s [...]
The PPPPPP gets a reaming…
Well, last month I was in the US of A for a couple weeks. Got a chance to toss some lead down range. THAT was a blast! Got to hang out with Hoot and Miss Beth from the Sixshooter Community Forum. Got to hang out with Jim Taylor, Hiram and Fungus Sam, not [...]
It’s been a while…
The last month has been quite busy and I’ve simply not taken the time to post anything. We’ve had plenty of guests and other activities to keep us busy. I did manage a trip to the range when a family stopped in with us for the week. When the lady found out I pack a [...]

In years past Charles would post a controversial subject, attacking some “holy cow” of the shooting sports in a well thought out manner. People would rise to the bait and [...]
Media Education
Thanks to Rob Leahy of Simply Rugged for the link to the Dissident Frogman’s post about the recent blunder by the AFP in which they showed two cartridges in the hand of an old woman that purportedly were “bullets” fired at her house by US forces. If you take a look at the Dissident Frogman’s [...]
Thirteen time zones
Last night as I was getting ready to close down the computer for the night I received a Skype call. I almost didn’t catch it because I had the sound turned way down, but the program flashed in the lower right corner and I saw it. Chuck Johnston in Taiwan was calling. We’ve had each [...]
Well, it’s been a while…
Over the past several months we’ve been busier than a one armed paper hanger with a dollar watch and the seven year itch. We’ve logged over 30,000 miles as we visit our supporters around the US of A. We’ve been from Florida to Washington and weathered both heat and cold. We’ve been to large gatherings [...]
Good music
A friend sent me a link to where I could download the tracks from a CD that he helped make some years ago. If you happen upon a copy of “The Hollands – A Few More Seasons”, snap it up. It’s good ol’ fashioned Bluegrass. Good music. Good vocals. Good [...]
