I did actually enjoy the movie “Bourne Legacy”. In fact, it is a nice addition to the three previous Bourne movies with a rugged new main character. I won’t spoil it for you, but it is worth the price of a Blue Ray disk.
The rifle that caught my eye was Featured in the movie, it is a high powered rifle that could be quickly broken down and easily assembled… even with your gloves on! Now, that’s my kind of hunting rifle! Italso nicely fits in a case that can be stowed in your backpack. I am not the only one impressed with this development… here’s a nice article on the gun itself.
Nemesis Arms makes this rifle (scopes are extra) and believe it or not, they make it right here in California! Check them out on FACEBOOK, too.
When you watch this movie, it’s hard not to want to go out and hunt in the snow!
a fond farewell to the wonderful world of Twinkies, cream filled chocolate cupcakes and Wonder Bread! CLICK on the picture for Hostess closing notice.
I remember my first childhood experience with a Hostess cupcake at the home of a friend having a birthday. I thought his mother was very cool… we had cake, punch and various Hostess products! I went for the Cream filled chocolate cupcake! YUM! I was in heaven.
Of course, heaven doesn’t last very long as a child. When I returned home I found all the usually waiting for me, including a great big bowl of carrots. The ‘line’ I received at home was always,”Hungry? then eat a carrot!” We’ve all met these women in our lives… flogging is too good for them!
Twinkies is certainly one of the greatest inventions on this earth. I stuck with the chocolate cakes though as I found Twinkies too compelling. It was like one was too many… and a million was not enough! Hostess Cupcakes are my sweet addiction… and like all wonderful things, I would ration them out over time. I am hoarding them now and they should keep me through the next zombie apocalypse… but they will be missed.
The great union organizer Samuel Gompers once said that unions should not have to support an inefficient marketplace; however, he faced companies with huge resources and not those teetering on the verge of bankruptcy, the growing burden of taxation and the widening economic depression ( DEFINITION: two or more quarters of recession) that we face today.
Cooperation and compromise have disappeared and the unintended consequences of arrogance and pride have lead us here today. On a personal note: proud of the Teamsters and having been one as they tried to keep the company alive!
If you wondered what really happened in the assault to kill Osama Bin Laden, wonder no more. Mark Owen ( an alias that I suspect is a combination of the names of friends or lost comrades) answers many of your questions. I found the authoritative pictures and the back story of becoming a Seal, Seal Team Six and various deployments illuminating. I am glad they are on our side!
Oh, there was some controversy out there regarding the writing of this book, but there doesn’t appear to be any national security secrets being leaked… after all, we already get a steady stream from the White House. There will be some disappointed readers, especially those who thought the commander-in-chief lead the mission and possibly flew in the first Apache Helicopter. You really can’t blame politicians, everyone likes to share in victory; however, if things went badly, I am sure we would have learned it was all poor Leon Panetta’s fault at the Pentagon. That’s the way things always go.
This book is well written and something that everyone should read. Buy it and you will enjoy it.
Nothing like the fun of a Trojan Football Game… here’s our experience in just 60 seconds! CLICK on the picture to see what happened!
My daughter Karen — SC Trojan record holder in the women’s shot put — has taught me a lot about social media. Certainly, we on the second half of the century mark have enjoyed facebook, linked in, twitter… and now PTCH. Pitch gives us a way of telling and posting our story in pictures and to music using nothing more than your iPhone ( smartphone).
I am sure this ap will just keep getting better and better. FIGHT ON!
