It must be clean living, but I missed almost all of the bad weather between Las Vegas and Tucson. After the indoor digital simulation training at MiScenarios on Sunday, I dropped Mr. Completely and KeeWee off at the Silver Legacy and headed South for Las Vegas a bit after 13:30. I rolled into Las Vegas about 20:30, grabbed something to eat at Vamp'd (Not bad! I've paid a lot more for a steak nowhere near as good - two thumbs up), and then drove on to Henderson to get a room for the night. I got drizzled on just a tiny bit rolling into Vegas, but the clouds did look threatening.
I pulled out of Henderson this morning at 08:30 and hit Phoenix about 12:00. The only rain I drove through was between Kingman and Wikieup, and it wasn't that bad. Apparently Phoenix got slammed this morning, but by the time I rolled in it was over. I-10 West was closed West of the I-17 exchange, but I was headed East, so that wasn't a problem. I had to stop by my company's main office and pick up some stuff, and I had to drop off Capitalist Pig's and Ms. Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy's rifles that I transported for them, rather than them having to deal with the TSA.
Tucson, in the mean time, was getting hammered. All gone by the time I got home. I rolled into my driveway at about 15:30. I'm wiped out. And I have to be on the road tomorrow at oh-my-god:30 for three to four days of onsite service work at a mine 200 miles away.
Blogging will be light for the next couple of days, but there WILL be an After-Action Report from the Rendezvous!
The Smallest Minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities. - Ayn Rand
Liberty is an inherently offensive lifestyle. Living in a free society guarantees that each one of us will see our most cherished principles and beliefs questioned and in some cases mocked. That psychic discomfort is the price we pay for basic civic peace. It's worth it. It's a pragmatic principle. Defend everyone else's rights, because if you don't there is no one to defend yours. -- MaxedOutMama
I don't just want gun rights... I want individual liberty, a culture of self-reliance....I want the whole bloody thing. -- Kim du Toit
The most glaring example of the cognitive dissonance on the left is the concept that human beings are inherently good, yet at the same time cannot be trusted with any kind of weapon, unless the magic fairy dust of government authority gets sprinkled upon them.-- Moshe Ben-David
The cult of the left believes that it is engaged in a great apocalyptic battle with corporations and industrialists for the ownership of the unthinking masses. Its acolytes see themselves as the individuals who have been "liberated" to think for themselves. They make choices. You however are just a member of the unthinking masses. You are not really a person, but only respond to the agendas of your corporate overlords. If you eat too much, it's because corporations make you eat. If you kill, it's because corporations encourage you to buy guns. You are not an individual. You are a social problem. -- Sultan Knish
All politics in this country now is just dress rehearsal for civil war. -- Billy Beck
