+ = open

Clever headline, right? Anywhose, Google+ is now open to anyone and everyone. So you should join because Susie is on it, Timmy is on it, Scott is on it, and I'm on it. I just realized that's probably half the people that look at the blog. So if your name is not Susie, Timmy, or Scott P. you should join. It's an exciting new world.

Hey, I did that sign

Not trying to toot my own horn, but toot toot. So last night KARE 11 had a story about saving money by going to the library. They just happened to pick the Roseville Library. It just so happens that I (and my company) did the signs for that library last fall. If you haven't been there, I highly suggest it. It's pretty cool (say that in a Miley Cyrus type of voice). And really the video doesn't really show all the cool things in that library. So go look smart and read a book (and check out the cool signs).

New tool cabinet

Sears had a big labor day sale. So after some plotting and planning, this is what I ended up with. And yeah, the top section does say Kobalt. I wasn't able to find a top section at Sears that had the three draws on the top row. OK, they did have something similar but it wasn't exactly what I was looking for. So I ended up paying full price for that but the bottom and middle section ended up somewhere in the 30%-40% off. Not too shabby.

Shooting Videos







Here are the videos from the Shooter's Roundup. And yeah, they aren't in the usual 720p. Even though Timmy asked me about it before we started shooting (guns and video). I didn't realize it was on the wrong setting until I uploaded these to Youtube. Anyways, back to the guns. The first video we have Tim shooting 50 rounds out of the Browning machine gun (the same one that Dave and I shot last year). As usual, Tim gets a standing ovation after he is done shooting (take that whatever way you want). The second vid is me shooting the SAW. I'm a little disappointed in the video because it looks and sounds way cooler in person. And it probably would have been cooler if I shot 50 rounds instead of 25. Then the third vid is me shooting a MP5. Which was pretty sweet. This isn't all of the guns that we shot that day but it is all the video I took. I also shot an Uzi, a 5' long old style muzzleloader type of gun, and a cool .22. I can't remember everything that Jeff and Timmy shot but I know there was a .357 pistol, a bunch of shotguns, and maybe one or two other handguns. Once again, it was a good time had by all. Even though we didn't get to see a pregnant lady shoot two AK-47's. There's always next year.
