Welcome to Ye Aulde Colde Furye Blogge’s shiny new open-comments thread, where y’all can have at it as you wish, on any topic you like. New posts will appear below this one. There will be blood… Betazo
Mike @Substack

New Eyrie posts go up every Monday and Friday, although the time of day may (and most likely will) vary. Mike’s latest Eyrie offering is available for perusal here: “The Phantom-pain Menace.“ Links to archived Golden Oldies are findable down at the bottom of each post.
Please do consider subscribing to The Eyrie, gang; it’s free, unless you’re feeling big-hearted enough to pony up for a paid sub. Either way, paying customer or freeloading looky-loo, an Eyrie subscription is a bargain at any price, a move you’ll won’t ever regret making.
All subscribers receive email notification whenever each new post goes live, although CF management promises not to blow up your inbox with a bunch of junk mail. Latest Eyrie offering is getatable (yes, that’s really a word—trust me!) for one and all to read and enjoy totally free of charge, regardless of subscriber status. However, a paid sub is required to unlock commenting privileges—an almighty incentive to kick loose and chip in if ever there was one. Thanks, everybody!

A few years ago, I joked at Daily Pundit about a .50 caliber handgun. No, not the old ball and cap. Not even the S&W .500 magnum. I discussed a .50 BMG pistol. Then had to clarify that I was joking.
Art becomes life.
I’ll give the dude an A for courage – or is that stupidity?
When I was about 16-17 I bought a Mauser, $10 back then 🙂
I took into the back yard to try it out, wooded for a couple miles behind the house and a decent spot to shoot from. I paid no attention to what I was doing, didn’t set my legs, just flat footed and legs a few inches apart, pulled the trigger – and it knocked me on my ass 🙂
About the same kick and power as my 30-06, but one needs to be ready. That fellow with the pistol was at least smart enough to put on a helmet, I’ll give him that.
Just look at those faces.
As the original poster said, this is why women in video games have to be fat and ugly.
I never get a real good view of the girl everyone seems to be looking at, but it appears to me that she may be pregnant…
It’s time for a music recommendation. It’s a bit early in the season, but this song’s majesty is timeless.
