The Night the Dog Ate Pizza

So we finally finished that man cave and moved into it. Me and my brother have been sleeping in it for the past few nights. We have a TV in there and we're planning on building a bar and putting a mini fridge by it. We are quite enthusiastic and excited about it.

One of my buddies couldn't help us out the last few days we worked on it. He and his family marched off to disneyland at this month so he wasn't available. He told me and my brother to save the last nail for him when he gets here to pound it in so he could say he helped.

All we need to do now really is to get a nice couch or loveseat to put in there. We don't really have enough seating for too many people to watch TV yet but but we don't have a ton of space either.

We'll have a lot of good times in there.

Oh, and if the people who have been reading these don't understand why my headings don't have anything to do with the actual blog, I'm just letting you know I do acknowledge that and I'm not doing it for any reason at all in particular.

Oh, also if anyone of you have heard of Steve Martin or his book Cruel Shoes don't ever read it. It's a piece of crap.

Also nobody ever search anything on Wikipedia ever again.

I'm Uber Bad

So sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I've been procrastinating.
It really isn't fun to blog you know? I mean sure it's a good opportunity to improve on my typing skills and it's a good outlet if you're bored. But it really isn't all that fun.

So not much has happened since I last posted. We did go on that rabbit hunt and we did get some rabbits and I must sat my new rifle did not disappoint. It performed perfectly.

We're almost done building that man cave too. We finally bought the rest of our materials and we're good to go. Our friend Ken is coming over on Sunday to help us finish it and we're oh so excited.

My grandpa also gave us a new TV to put in it once it's done so that's pretty uber as well. I was thinking about getting an old game console to play some of the old games on. You know what I'm talking about like Mario, Donkey Kong all those games. I've never actually played the old ones so it'll be kind of fun to get them.

I really don't have much else to say now. Like I said nothing has really been happening lately.

The weather is getting nicer here though... I though that was nice.

The beauty of killing wabbits

So I'm going rabbit hunting again this week. I don't know if I mentioned our first hunt in any of my previous blogs so just to fill you in, I'd gone on a rabbit hunt last month. We were hunting in the dark and it was cold and miserable so we're going this week since it's spring in the hopes that it'll be a bit warmer.

I am also hoping that my new shotgun will hold it's own against the vermin than my other gun did. Five 410. rounds in my cylinder is way better than 10 in a 22. especially when it's too crappy to fire.

Last I heard, we are making the trip over to Christmas valley on Friday. We'll stay for the weekend. Last month we got about 20 rabbits in one night. My friend's dad says they usually get about 50 on a good night. It's more pleasurable when it isn't so cold also.

This is still only one of the first times I've gone rabbit hunting. I've gone in Idaho with my uncle on his property a couple of times and I've gone with my friend and his dad last month. So I'm still a beginner at this sort of thing.

I don't have much going on really but if I ever do it'll end up here. :)

Oh, and I do have camp coming up. If that little tidbit interests you I guess you just won the prize.

If you haven't already guessed, there isn't much that I do. People are often asking me things like what my hobbies are but in reality I have none.
I'm not complaining though. I am quite happy regardless of the situation I'm in.
I suppose I've been given the blessing of finding contentment when there is nothing joyful in my life.

Perhaps this may be the greatest joy I could ever have received. If it were possible for all other people to find joy when there is no joy the earth would be a whole lot better place to live.

Perhaps I'll challenge the rest of you pleasant individuals to do the same thing that I strive to do if it pleases. Try to find peace and joy. Even in your darkest hour. Strive to find the good in your life. Look at all of the blessings you have and just for a second stop consuming and be content.

You see the problem with us modern Americans is we think that everything is owed to us. We are all wrong in our thinking. We really are no better than the rest of the world. We may be even worse in a lot of ways.

We are in so much debt right now that there is no chance of us getting out any time soon. Yet we just keep spending. The decisions that my beloved country's leaders are making is eventually going to make me move. We have more power than we deserve.

Many countries hate us because we are known as slovenly lazy fatties with too much power. Our government is becoming corrupt and they are doing things that are dishonest.

Talking about my country this way may be going a bit too far so I'll stop now. Just know whoever reads this just how I feel.

April Fules

So, good news. I was able to trade that crappy gun for the exact model of carbine that I wanted. I'm pretty happy. The gun is perfect. I enjoy it's performance and it has an exceptional feel to it. I really have no reason to be unhappy at this point so I am not.

So it's April fools today and everyone is updating their relationship statuses as a joke. As of today exactly four of my friends went from "single" to "engaged". Congrats guys but we all know you're full of it.

I completely forgot it was April fools earlier and the updates caught me off guard. I may sound like I am invincible to April fools jokes but I proved myself otherwise today.

My lack of respect for the power of an April fools joke may be traced back to the first April fools joke ever told to me.
I was about 10 and my mother told me she was gonna pull and April fools joke and even told me what it was gonna be.

She told me the night before that she was gonna come into my room and pretend that it was a school morning even though it was Saturday. She did that the next morning and I wasn't fooled. From then on I thought I was unfoolable. I'm not of course.

I'm actually pretty gullible. Once there was an Iranian guy that my family knew and he would always play the same dumb little trick on me every time we saw him. He would point to an area on my shirt and say something like..."What in the hell is that?" and when I looked down he would jab me in the eye with his finger.

I haven't seen that Iranian guy in awhile but next time I do I have got to remember his tactic.

My Crap Rifle

Oh CRAP March is almost over. I think I'm gonna scream. Oh hey did I tell you guys about that piece of crap rifle I bought? If no, I bought this magnum research Magnumlite 22. lr that was supposed to be the most high end 22. you can buy...almost... but it turned out to be A demon's tird.

If I thought it was capable of working properly I would have, in my anger, shot myself with it already, but I know that it would be pointless because the probability of something actually coming out of the barrel when you pull the trigger is as good as releasing a chimpanzee into a cage with a wounded puppy and expecting him not to eat it.

So guys if you are interested in purchasing the most disappointing piece of crap in the universe, I am gladly willing to trade it to you for a paper cup filled to the brim with maggots swimming in the week-old diarrhea of a sick rhinoceros.

Although I have found the gun to be completely useless, I am hoping that if I don't tell the dealers that I think something is wrong with it, they may gladly return to me at least half of the money that I payed for it, which was originally $700.

I do hope to purchase a much better carbine in the near future. The model I'm looking at now is the "Taurus Circuit Judge" Which is a combination of a 410. gauge shotgun and a 45. long colt rifle. It is a revolver carbine and it has a rugged design. The gun itself is built to last, and because it's two guns in one, I can go varmint hunting, and maybe large game hunting as well.

I am excited to see what I can get out of my crap 22. and if it'll be enough to put towards a purchase of my carbine.

Nobody's Fool

So lately I've been working on a project with my brother. We're building sort of a man cave/bedroom. It's in one of the shops we have out back. I'm pretty excited about it and thought I'd share it with you guys.

Also I've been been chatting with I girl I met from Russia. I saw her profile pic on facebook and requested her. So far through our conversations I've found that she is very sweet and I do enjoy talking to her. It does get rather lonely around here so a little conversation with a new friend is great.

I've also been thinking lately about something I barely ever think about. I think I'd like to start dating. It might just be a passive feeling because I've really never thought too much about it. I am gonna be 18 this year so dating indeed is in the near future for me.

Well, I'm sorry but I really can't think of anything else to say. I promise you people longer posts in the future.

Paintball Paladin

So things have been pretty OK lately. Mostly I've just been chilling out. Today I decided to beat the boredom by inviting a good buddy of mine over to paintball for awhile.

One thing about paintball is you spend more time talking about paintball than actually doing it even when you're suited up and ready. Even when we finally decided to play, we only did one game and we stopped when my buddy ran out of paint.

Despite ending our game prematurely, the fun of the day had just begun. I had been previously notified by my brother that I would have to go through "initiation". Basically initiation is when a noob to paintball runs in front of several guys while they shoot him until he runs to a certain goal.

I wasn't exactly in favor of this but I wasn't going to let the guys think ill of me because they had all supposedly done it before. To assure the present company that I wasn't a wuss I accepted my fate while shaking in my boots.

Before I started running I wasn't too freaked out. I'd never exactly been shot by a paintball gun very close let alone three guns firing mercilessly at the same time so I didn't know what to expect.

I can't remember a time when I'd felt that much pain at one time in my whole life. I felt every shot even after I was pumped with adrenaline. My Buddy James was toting a Tippman A-5 which is an extremely high-powered gun. Earlier in the day I'd witnessed him shooting holes in a thick plastic bucket.

A you can imagine I have quite a few welts on various parts of my body. I knew when I was being hit my James because he always aims for my ass.

Well, that's what happened today. Hope you enjoyed reading it.
