A father of two teenagers daughters, former Navy aviation metelsmith, foundryman, occasional watercolourist and self described curmudgeon-for-hire (says so on his card) the magslinger is a profoundly private person whose fondest wish is to be left alone by both governmental and freelance socialists. He FReeps for fun and the reduction of both types of socialism.

The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.

Wars are, of course, as a rule to be avoided; but they are far better than certain kinds of peace.

The pacifist is as surely a traitor to his country and to humanity as is the most brutal wrongdoer.

SOME THINGS I HAVE LEARNED FROM MY WIFE'S CAT

Body heat is sufficient reason to sleep with someone.

Small dead animals make great gifts.

Meet people at the door. This will make them want to fix you food.

If you need attention, make a hacking noise near a brand new piece of furniture.

Night time is a good time to play. Once you wake up a playmate, they aren't doing anything, anyway.

Sleep on people. They are soft and warm and won't get you as wet as a waterbed will if you claw them.

Any time is a good time for personal hygiene.

Toy mousies get hungry. Put them in your kibble dish so they can eat.

When in doubt, find the warmest place in the house and take a nap.

Watching people take a shower is a cat's horror movie.

What is this privacy thing of which you speak? (While sitting on the bathroom vanity and bumping heads.)

I should stay home and sleep with the cat instead of going to work.

I didn't say they were good things :)
