From the “It Never Ceases to Amaze Me File” – Man goes into Starbucks where they write your name on a cup and states “TRUMP”. You guessed it – they refuse and call the cops because he gives them a hard time. Unreal. ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ I’ve been on a cooking binge lately… Continue reading From the Desk of John Rourke – November 18th, 2016

It’s becoming more and more apparent that “alternative” news sources are the places to get real news. Even websites such as Alex Jones’s InfoWars.com and ZeroHedge.com are becoming more recognized as accurate purveyors of current events. InfoWars in particular I have avoided due to Alex Jones’s mannerism of over-the-top “every event spells doom for… Continue reading From the Desk of John Rourke – November 16th, 2016

Get out there and VOTE!!! Get your friends and family and get them to the poll to vote for Trump. …….and pray. ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ I see silver has slid in price a bit lately.

Pretty much the only thing on my mind is the election. Just cannot comprehend how so many people could be fooled or are so ignorant to such a large extent that we are seriously looking at “President Hillary Clinton”. I shouldn’t be shocked after all Obama was elected twice. Back in November of 2012 I… Continue reading From the Desk of John Rourke – November 7th, 2016

Springfield Armory has released their version of the AR-15 – the “Saint”. I got a chance to lay my hands on it in a non-shooting inspection and handling session. I like it. A lot. At the street price of around $869 it is not super inexpensive nor out of reach for most. I have a… Continue reading From the Desk of John Rourke – November 4th, 2016

I caught myself recently telling a friend that I just could not understand why a carbine such as the old Marlin Camp 9 was not made today. I mean – Ruger made a 9mm carbine and others have. Some were ridiculously expensive but I am looking for something like the Camp 9 – reasonably priced.… Continue reading From the Desk of John Rourke – November 2nd, 2016

The situation and tension between Russia and the United States continues to be eventful. Late last week it was reported that on October 17th there was a near miss in Syria where Russian and US military jets had a near collision. How close? Within a half mile. Might not sound like a big deal but… Continue reading From the Desk of John Rourke – November 1st, 2016

Happy Halloween!!! Pay extra close attention to the evil clowns lurking in your backyard….and in your closets. ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ Interesting that on this day in 1841 Nevada become a state. Also worth noting that on October 31st in 1941 Mount Rushmore was officially completed and in 1984 Indira Gandhi was assassinated .… Continue reading From the Desk of John Rourke – October 31st, 2016
