Brain Dump

It's time to clear some of the cobwebs out of my cranial attic.

The Federal suit against Arizona's immigration law has 3 salient points.
1.  The Arizona law merely enables local law enforcement personnel to enforce the existing federal law.
2.  It was enacted because the federal authorities do not enforce existing law.
3.  Since the feds are bringing suit to overturn the state law, it is clear that they have no intention of fulfilling their duty to enforce the law.
Throw the bums out!

Yesterday at the range, Bobby and I were having a great time throwing .45 cal bullets into paper bad guys.  After the 4th shot of a so-so string, my target hit the floor.  A magic ricochet out of the berm cut the wire that held up the target carrier.  My apologies to the guys at the Firing Lane, and I'm still willing to pay for the repairs. 
Footnote:  The next magazine I fired was my best group ever from my Commander.

We finally get to bring Otis home today.  I just hope my cold doesn't give him distemper or rinderpest, or some other obscure disease.  He's going to be just what I need, regardless of how he turns out.  If he's a good, laid back, buddy, more power to him.  If he's a hound from hell (unlikely) I get to turn him into a good buddy.  Either way, we both win.

Marilyn's home after the work schedule from hell.  It's good to have her here.  Dogs, cats, old trucks, and TV can occupy a day, but there's really no comparison to somebody you love.

I really need to stop.  There's much to do today, and less and less time to do it.

Stay well.
