When I was a kid I used to do a lot of fishing. In a lot of the local stores you could get a lure that looked like a mouse. I knew it was for bass and other larger fish in the lakes around here, but I had never seen any fish actually eat a mouse. Until I found this video of a guy feeding his pet bass a mouse:

CÂ’mon thatÂ’s kind of cool. And for your animal cruelty people, lighten up. Animals eat other animals.

For my next meeting at work I am going to bring in a double a battery, some copper wire and a magnet. Just so I can do this:

ItÂ’s always fun to have people look at me strangely in meetings. It keeps them from asking my opinion.

Sand castles, when I was a kid I would spend hours making sandcastles. Mostly I made them on the beach at the campground that my parents and grandparents went to all the time. I made everything from little forts that I would destroy with my GI Joes to an entire sand community that was about to get squashed under my feet while I pretended to be Godzilla.

I was never very good at making sand castles. They didnÂ’t look all that great, nor where they generally all that creative. Mostly it was just piles of sand that had been shaped into buildings, forts or actual castles. The best I ever did was one that actually kind of looked like Fort Sumner from the Civil War. Yea, it was destroyed.

It has been at least 20 years since the last time I even attempted to make a castle. But If I did make one today, IÂ’d probably still want to destroy it. So when I saw these videoÂ’s I was enthralled by it. Sand Castles explodingÂ… in reverse. ItÂ’s kind of neat to see them reform.

This makes me want to go to a beach with some black powder.

Graumagus found this piece about gun violence. Normally I wouldnÂ’t blatantly pilfer from him, but anyone that knows me KNOWS how close this hits to home. IÂ’m just saying.

Damn Grau, you gone and done good!

A friend of mine sent me this commercial for DonÂ’s Guns.

Apparently they are in Indianapolis, Indiana. I love the fact you can rent just about any gun you want to shoot. However, is it just me, or does this guy seem a littleÂ… off?

This video has some pretty cool shotguns in it, the A-12 MKII and the A-10 MKI.

They look like they would be a lot of fun, but IÂ’m not sure I would want to own either of them. From the way the guys shooting them are moving around, it looks like there is a lot of kick to them. If anyone has one they want to let me test fire to review however, IÂ’d be more then happy to.

Now here's one that looks like it doesn't have as much kick.

1 Killing a poor, defenseless, stuffed lion? How brutal this world has become.
