A child of the Southwest and of the 50s -- a woman who knew me well once said, 'Yeah, the 1850s.' Generally culturally conservative and distrustful of new and improved innovative change. Very seldom overtly serious, but many a truth is spoke in jest and all of my truths are. Worked my way through UT when I was up in my 30s. If I'd, by some horrible miscalculation ended up in Bryan, I would've worked my way through that school over there. Have worked all over in printing and publishing. I've held a bunch of jobs and quit all of them but one. I am a journeyman printer and followed the trade and heard its dying gasps as it was throttled by technological change. I had a sponsored blog on a newspaper but quit the job.
The best technology almost always wins in the end, in this case a super air gun. Gives new respect for the old Daisy pump i used to murder sparrows when I was a kid. [Ain't the Internet a fabulous thing?]
Have to agree - this the coolest site I have seen in a while. I myself murdered blackbirds and orioles(even ate one at the old man's behest) don't remember, but I doubt it was on a level with quail ......... The gun is just drop dead awesome. Damn shame they are manufacturing paint ball suburbia rambo crap as opposed to such a fine piece of work these days. I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

That was excellent. Makes perfect sense and I am amazed at how much information was packed into less than 9 minutes! The narrator was good.
You always find the best stuff!
So that's what the Loon did to the carrier-pigeon population...
