    Your Top 3 for January 2024

    Better late than never, I guess. Being that I still can't put weight on my knee after surgery and Tennessee had a doozy of a snow/ice storm, I didn't shoot a great deal in January. I did get out for a little shooting bit. Enough to pick out a few to share. Please share yours!

    Documentary 27 January 2023 Auckland Flooding

    Hey everyone! You may have heard about the flooding we had here yesterday. It's similar to what happened in Europe before. It's a one-in-250 year event and our infrastructure, like most in the modern West are designed to withstand 1-in-100 year events, depending on climate, of course. Here is a...

    27 January - Scots Wha Hae

    Today is 27 January, the birthday of Robert Burns. Scots Wha Hae was the national anthem for centuries and still may be. Haggis and single malt all around! Auld Lang Syne and so may others have come to us from a man who wrote in his own language, not English. Lift a malt to Rabbie...

    Take it as it was conceived (with lots of tongue in at least four cheeks): And here's a more palatable version of the general idea: Most people are more familiar with version "4" ... but "1" appeared alongside "9" on the iconic White Album (I own the original vinyl ...). M.
