I'm Back!!!

Vacation in the Scottish Highlands and the isle of Skye, with a sidetrip to Yorkshire to visit the Bronte sisters! And yes, there can be only one...but probably not me!

    Loved visiting the homeland of my grandfather a few years back. MacDuff, the Whiskey Trail, Inverness. I fished the Spey with a guide who also guided hunts. We had some interesting discussions about guns. His rifles must be locked up and can be inspected by yhr government at any time. He also said if he suffered a home invasion robbery that he could not use his hunting rifle to defend himself. If he did, it's prison for him!

  4. Sad, isn't it?

    I carried a Swiss Army Knife and figured I could explain carrying it.

    I think it's hugely sad that you can't carry a blade in one of the great blade cultures on earth…

    The devil told the Scotsman "you cannot survive the coming storm"! The Scotsman replied "I am the storm"!

  6. Eric…PUH-LEASSE! You don't think I would buy an off-the-rack "tourist" kilt, do you? Instead, I went to Geoffrey Taylor's (Geoff the Tailer) to be fitted for a "casual" kilt in appropriate Clan MacBain tartan, which evidences signs of either whiskey consumption or color-blindness. Will be wearing it at 'MICHAEL BUYS THE BEER" at the NRA Show, where we'll kick off the formal premiere of SGO, SHOOTING GALLERY ONLINE…

    Welcome back...while you were on vacation the final push was made by the
    MSM
    REPUBLICAN ESTABLISHMENT
    THE PROGRESSIVE LEFT
    THE HOUSE SPEAKER AND NUMEROUS R MEMBERS

    The end result is that Trump lost the election. The burial is scheduled for Nov 8, with quiet reception to follow. Hope you are prepared for receiving script approvals in January from WH. That is until OC is shutdown as unacceptable to community standards.

  8. Anon...no kidding. I'm already a certified "enemy of the state." I suspect I'll find out how much of an enemy I am after Nov. 7...

  11. Next Wednesday, the podcast returns as usual, except that I speak with a Scottish accent and say things like "a wee dram..."

    Anon @ 9:08,

    Unfortunately, the "new" Scotsman has sold his soul to the "Devil of Dependence" and NOT continuing to follow the lead of their forefather's by fighting for independence. They have voted to join the welfare state by NOT seceding from the UK. Now, they are wanting to "Exit the BREXIT", so that they can attach to the EU's teat. Sorry to have to say it that way. William Wallace cannot ever rest now! How sad.

    To Paraphrase the prior entry: "The devil told the Scotsmen 'You cannot survive the coming storm'. The Scotsmen now reply: 'Please protect me'."
