Comment on Review: Maverick Grill by Tony

For the record, this place closed late last year. I’m not surprised…great location, just not a *family* joint. A family joint would have really done well considering all the neighborhoods forced to drive by it on their way to/from I-235.

I very much agree with your first two points. I’m currently looking for a CMS for my personal site, and I have to say I discounted Geeklog because of its name, and after finding out that glFusion (which so far I like) is based on it, I went to Geeklog’s site to check it out, and got turned off by the design.

Comment on Cutting Use of Zend_Log in Half by Chris

I still don’t love it, but I think I’m instead going to use:

Zend_Registry::get(‘logger’)->info(‘my log message’);

for now.

To me the telling line in the article is “Devin Harris of the New Jersey Nets has said he believes 75 percent of NBA players own guns. ” Guilt by association. If you own a gun, you must be a threat.
Tony, you hooked up with Rev Al on Facebook.:-)

Comment on How to Stop the Hunting Tradition by Tony

Yeah, that’s the point I hope more of us take home. Trappers take heat, Fly Fishing anglers come off as snobs (yes, a generalization), but that the more we see our selves as different the easier it is for anti-[whatever] groups.

Cool! You’re a star.

The divide and conquer method drives me nuts. Elitists who hate other sportsmen because they don’t agree with their methods don’t do any of us any good. If it’s legal I’m for it. Just because I think Noodling for catfish is a little weird doesn’t mean that it should be shut down. Let’s stand up for each others rights folks.

Cory, what’s sad is Arenas played in that game last night. Any spine I thought Stern had flew out the window…same for the Wizards coaching staff. How do you *not* bench him?

I totally agree. Everytime some jackass pulls a stupid stunt with a gun, it’s just another chink in the armor. I think that most people are neutral on the gun control issue but the trend is going the wrong direction. Everybody needs to wake up and be a bit smarter.

Comment on Stop Follow Friday Insanity by Cory Glauner

I agree. I was on the bandwagon for a while, but finally realized how ridiculous it really was. Just clutters things up.

Comment on The Pragmatic Side of Twitter by justin carlson

Nice post Tony, good examples of using Twitter "the right way".

If anyone thinks this kind of thing is obvious, here is an example of a bunch of people that just don't get it:

"One of the great let downs of our time will be when we realize that really, no one else gives a shit what is going on in our lives, except the people we love, and even this its to a limited extent."

Wish we had Purple Martins here in Idaho. They're cool birds.

New blog layout is nice.

Comment on Georgia Loosens Restriction on Concealed Carry by kenhump

Some might say that in a civilized society guns aren’t needed. In 65 years on the north side of the lawn I’ve found civilization to be grossly overrated and wildly optimistic.

Tricky subject. I am all for our right to bear arms and my wife just recently went through the hoops (We live in Idaho) and got her concealed permit. I don’t have one, but she is home alone a lot in the fall while I am gone hunting. In that situation, I think it’s a good thing. Guns and booze are a bad mix though.

I officially got an unofficial answer regarding this.

In short, don’t hold your breath. For better or worse…(worse)
