The Shooting Gallery - Third Operation

6/15/2017

Mmmmmm...another day at the range. It has been a long while since I fired my weapon and I am well overdue. So, forgoing usual business, I took off to the range and honed my skill once more. There is a new installment in The Shooting Range titled "Third Operation" which is my solo go against steel, paper, and myself. If you enjoy crazed ramblings and gunfire then I have provided much on this run. Be warned, I did my best with video editing and touch ups but am still struggling with Part 6 on orientation (you might just listen to it rather than watch for now). I will update it as I go, because I have already spent hours to get it this far. Take a gander and enjoy the adventure.

THE MAD BARRON

QUOTES I ADMIRE
"A wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man and his own works dominate the landscape, is an area where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain." - from the Wilderness Act, 1964

"I owe my solitude to other people." - ALAN WATTS

“I think I could turn and live with the animals, they are so placid and self contained;
I stand and look at them long and long.
They do not sweat and whine about their condition;
They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins;
They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God;
Not one is dissatisfied-not one is demented with the mania of owning things;
Not one kneels to another, nor his kind that lived thousands of years ago;
Not one is responsible or industrious over the whole earth.”
― Walt Whitman

"In the ancient world, people placed heavy stones on the graves of the dead so their souls would not wander and inflict the living. I always thought this was simply the practice of superstitious and primitive people. But I was about to learn that the dead can hover on the edge of our vision with the density and luminosity of mist, and their claim on the earth can be as legitimate and tenacious as our own."

- Dave Robicheaux (In The Electric Mist With Confederate Dead)
