 | Harry Reid rant - ArkBengal on 4/25/13 at 10:27 am
Amusing to see Reid's remarks yesterday about how sequester is costing medical research the opportunity to produce AIDS and cancer (among other)cures/preventatives.
Although I could see how any cuts in research on senility would upset Harry....

| New pistol for Wife - ArkBengal on 7/25/12 at 4:50 pm
OK, gonna break down and get the Mrs a carry pistol. She's quite familiar with guns and can shoot my Sig 2022 .40 just fine, but needs a smaller one for purse, etc.
Narrowed down to two 9mm so far based on weight, trigger pull, cost, etc. Looking at S&W M&P Shield and the Taurus Millenium Pro 111. ...

Fired my new Sig Pro .40 cal today. Very impressed - accurate, low recoil, no malfunctions, etc.
I would recommend to take a look at this one for a medium frame SA/DA pistol. About half the price of their P226 classic - was $400 at Academy, and saw they have the 9mm on sale for $379 now. Can get 9...

Watching the FCS (D1AA) playoffs, I know a player can transfer from, say LSU to McNeese and play immediately. But what about the reverse ? Say LSU sees a guy at McNeese they like can he transfer "up" and play or would have to sit a year ala D1 transfers ?...

Coming down Thanksgiving evening for the Arkansas game and wondering if anyone knows if any restaurants will be open that night. Last time I came for that game we couldn't find anything open and ended up at Shoney's.

Boy, I don't know about down there, but the Arky talk show hosts (and some fans) are heavy into bashing Miles and laughing at his verbal faux pas. Using the oil spill comments and some others including something about scholarships, they are running this stuff non-stop lately.

Also, the defense, again with a couple of excep...
