The Amateur Philosophers Society and Gun Club
Held it's second annual Independance Day gathering at the redoubt in Wesbygod last Saturday. A grand time was had by all. Freedom was unbound and celebrated as it only can be here in America. Firearms, fireworks, food and friends aplenty.
Ronin J. enjoying the afterglow from emptying a 20 round mag, thus proving that John Lennon was right about something.
Shooting, grilling and beer consumption continued throughout the afternoon. Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms may be a political deprtment in D.C. but in Wesbygod it more accurately describes the local convenience store.
But Svin...is that safe???

Well, with all that shooting, did you guys ever have a chance to discuss any philosophy? Now that is a silly question. Guys and beers and guns and philosophy go together like Anheuser and Busch, like Smith and Wesson, like God and John Moses Browning. We talked about many of the issues of the day . Topics like evolution and its supporters and detractors.
Ah yes. God versus Kalashnikov. Now there is a philosophical debate for you. While we were at it, we also discussed the nature of the Trinity in it's earthly manifestations.
Richard "Der Schwanz" keeps the brass flying in the speed event. How many angels can dance on the headstamp of a cartridge case? I dunno. Gimme another beer and we'll count em again. Eventually, most of the ammunition had fulfilled it's karmic destiny. The cordite wafted away in the breeze and we prepared for the final ritual of the day.
The Scotsman was on hand with his bag of magical tricks.
Bomber Girl joined in to help make the...well... Bombs! Lets see here. The red fuse is the fast fuse and the green fuse is the slow...no...wait a minute. The green fuse is the fast fuse and the red...WHATEVER!
That s a whole bunch of potential freedom right thar folks' and it went down something like this.
And this...

KABOOM!
Happy 4th of July Y'all !
