a�nach�ro�nism (-nkr-nzm)

I think that pretty well describes how I feel about a few things. I own a fabric covered biplane, fascinated by the WW2 fighters rather than jets. I think that girls with tatoos are nasty, earrings belong on girls not guys, baseball hats should be worn with the brim forward, coffee is meant to be drank hot and black, beer cold, whiskey sparingly, wine with food. I think good bar-b-que (not grilled food) is finer food than chateubriand, beef wellington, or crepe suzzettes.

I think every kid should learn at an early age where our food comes from. I mean they should visit places that process our foods, including the animal variety. It strikes me as completely incongruent that a 8 yr old kid will want to go to McDonalds for a burger and not know it's from a dead cow.

Dang! Did I get off track? Crap! My adult ADD is flaring up again.

Ok, I like sxs guns, good dogs regardless of breed, and good hunting grounds. I have a particular fondness to hunt wild California valley quail with a .410 and a dog. I like hunting them over my lab, but I recently acquired an English Pointer to see if that's how I want to hunt them and because the lab is aging and the heat is often a challenge for a dog here. The jury is still out on the pointer type of hunting. The reason I like hunting with the .410 is that I found it was more rewarding when I actually took game with it. Many times more rewarding to me. I have a particular affliction for the early 20th century American .410's and other small bores. That's a narrow selection, but I have a few.

I like hunting with just me and a dog, but prefer to hunt with one or two friends.

Here's the new one.


Me, my bro-in-law, my dogs. (Amarillo Mike's birds, our birds were too big to lug into the picture)


The double malt ... er I mean double gun militia
