My GOD, Its Full of Stars...

I just wanted to post this beautiful sunset! I took this shot along with many others yesterday evening. It was a race against time to get my camera but I still managed to capture these awesome sunset shots. There are many things that make life worth living and this is one of those things. It just seems impossible that nature accidentally renders this phenomena to us. A mathematician could sit there and argue that there is a mathematical equation that would surely explain why we have beautiful sunsets, but I would probly just tell him to shut up and just appreciate something that needs no explanation.

Enjoy the view.

AHHH Smell that Christmas

Listen to that... do you hear it? Ahhh yes the sound of Radioshack, Sears, and other assorted conglomerates getting their sticky traps ready for another Christmas full of stampeding consumers and jolly fat santa people. Its surely the time of year when cash ruptures from our ass like some kind of particle collider. I look forward to the ass rupturing though, what would our economy do without customers like me that buy really neat things that won't likely make it past new years before it gets broken or outlived.
I can see myself now, window shopping, looking at that shiny new Apple-Peelings disposal unit "Geezus i need that, it will save me hundreds of dollars on apple peelings disposal costs, just THINK of the possiblities!". Well im not actually that gullible but interesting enough during the Christmas season I just tend to feel more spendy. LOL Spendy is a cool word, i just made it up. If it's already a word, then i've made it my word. Either way it perfectly describes the Christmas mood. =)

Badass Shell Ejection

I didn't get to go to the Saw Range to take this picture but one of the other soldiers got some good shots. There is nothing quite like the sound of a Squad Automatic Weapon peeling the next round off the ammo belt and simultaneously sheering the brittle links holding each precious cartridge together. Now imagine discharging several thousand rounds of ammo through that beautiful machine. Its a surreal experience that can only be compared to some kind of exotic sex. Anyways I think im getting distracted from the point. This is a badass picture of two soldiers in Task Force Pueblo. I think one is Farish and the other is Wallace. I can spot those BCG'S from 23 clicks. Well im done with this post for now, I might come back and add more shots but until then.
