This is turning out to be the longest day ever.  It is only 1004 h and I've already won every game of solitaire on this computer and taken a nap.  The intergoogles put me right under while reading about… uh, something.  I don’t even remember what it was now.  Oh well.  So I'm thinking about selling Woody, my 7.62x39 Saiga with the wood furniture and scope.  I realized while reading a passage in Mary Shelly’s “Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus” that I am NEVER going to be able to hunt anything with it.  As a sporting arm, it is just taking up space in my gun cabinet.  If the shit hits the fan and I DO have to shoot Bambi for food, I'll still have the Tactical 7.62x39 or the SKS.  Of course it does eliminate my “long range” 7.62x39 since the two others have low power optics.  Psh, as if I have the skill to make a long range shot with a 7.62x39 Saiga.  Ok, I think I may be talking myself into selling it.  Let’s see, it has the TAPCO trigger group, albeit with the “Monkey Motion” remote Russian trigger, and it does look pretty cool with the wood furniture and scope, so it might fetch a little money.  I probably otter take it to the range and zero in that scope first to assure any buyer that it shoots and is accurate.  Hmm, I guess I should have thought of these things last week.  I know, I may take it to the range after John and I go to the shop tomorrow.  I have twenty rounds of Hornady ballistic-tip hollow points I can afford to burn up while zeroing in the scope.  Having a target to show the accuracy of the gun couldn’t hurt its value… well, unless the thing shoots “years of arc” rather than “minutes of arc.”  Well, I guess we’ll see.  Ok, since I have managed to waste almost an hour, and I have to pee, I'm going to call it a rant for the time being.  I may come back later.  Ow, ow, ow!  My tongue hurts from biting it too long.  I just had to meet with a representative from Apple in the Bored Room to make sure their presentation was going to work on Monday.  At least it wasn’t a Tiny and Flaccid rep, I might have punched him in the throat for Windows Millennium Edition… and Vista… and Windows Seven… aw hell, I might have killed the bastard think to come of it!  I fucking hate Microsoft… but we’ve been down that road before.  Well, yeah… I guess that’s about all I've got for y'all today.
