Five missing and two rescued after a commercial fishing vessel was lost 170 miles SW of Kodiak.
A quick search leads me to believe I knew the skipper back when I lived there, assuming the boat wasn't being run by a relief skipper. One of the survivors said the skipper never got out of the wheelhouse when she turned turtle.
Coast guard search and rescue aircraft say they see no signs of anything. No oil slick, no debris, nothing. The sea ate the 130 foot boat in a single bite.
As time passes and I hear of boats going down in Alaska I find I know fewer and fewer of the fisherman that are lost.
A handful have retired, many have died, some have disappeared into the bowels of the Lower 48 never to return to Alaska. I suppose I am one of the latter.
Someone recently commented to me that I am a hard case of sorts when in reality I am not. I simply accept the demise of people a lot faster than others simply because on my decade in Alaska where and when we died like flies in shipwrecks and small plane crashes.
I consider myself to be a fugitive from the law of averages.
That is all.

A lot of soccer moms don't get it.
Besides gun control in Virginia, the Virginia legislature is looking at enacting legislation that will permit the over rule of zoning boards.
I suppose a lot of soccer moms are going to go along with this in the interest of diversity and what have you. This is because a lot of soccer moms are complete idiots. They want diversity for their kids.
These are the kind of idiots that don't understand the law of unintended consequences. There also the kind of idiots that will condone poor behavior in minorities simply because they are afraid of being called a racist.
There's diversity and there's diversity.
The have not seemed to figure out that minorities can live anywhere they want if the can afford it. In my case I live in suburbia and my neighborhood is mixed. There are a few black families mixed in and Hispanics, too. It is a fairly diverse neighborhood.
The glue that pretty much hold us together certainly isn't race or religion. It's the American Dream of home ownership in a halfway decent, safe neighborhood. Anyone is welcome if they are willing to pony up, but a place and take care of it. It really is that simple. None of us care what color someone is or where they go to church or even if they do.
The one thing none of us want is to have the neighborhood torn up by some damned communist plan that drags everyone down to the level of the lowest. In short we do not want an apartment complex in a neighborhood zoned for single family homes.
The cycle in a some apartment complexes is that when the owner can't find enough tenants he 'goes Section 8' and the place becomes government subsidized housing. Of course this means that the people that move in ca't really afford to live in the neighborhood otherwise. While a lot of these people are probably pretty decent people, many are not and it doesn't take long before the decent people get run out and the whole place turns into a sewer and drags the neighborhood down with it.
Of course, Soccer Mom Karen never wanted to see her children having to deal with crackheads, junkies, pimps, whores and other unsavory types. She wanted diversity and to prove to everyone she was no racist.
Of course when Soccer Mom Karen figure out what happened it's too late so she decides to move. Then she discovers that the wonderful home she and her loving husband paid $500,000 isn't even what they owe on it because nobody wants to live down the street from Section 8 housing.
By this time Soccer Mom Karen is livid but it's too late. She doesn't know or understand what happened. She can't figure out that she actually VOTED for this to happen so the next election she doubles down and voted for yet MORE socialism thinking it will fix the problem. Instead it makes it worse and then Soccer Mom Karen decides that the neighborhood is intolerable. Her kids are getting into drugs, the daughter is running with the wrong crowd and she can't move because they can't even get anyone to take over the house payments.
I suppose if she has a brain in her head at this point she and darling husband will simply move out and let the bank repossess the place which by now isn't in very good shape thanks to the neighbors. The fence is spray painted with graffiti and has a couple of holes knocked in it.
Of course if they do bail out the chances of getting another mortgage are pretty slim and it looks like the wonderful family of five is going to have to move into an apartment of some sort. They waited too long.
It is interesting to note that the instant the permit to build the apartment complex was given most of the minorities in that neighborhood put their places up on the market. They were no fools. They knew what was going to happen and they wanted no part of it. The paradox here is that what was once called 'white flight' is being led by successful minorities that want no part of that nonsense! Soccer Mom Karen doesn't seem to see what is going to happen. She can't seem to figure out why the neighbors are moving. She's looking forward to living in a diverse neighborhood.
Soccer Mom Karen can't seem to figure out that there are consequences to elections and that she is paying the price for her stupidity.
Dr. King said that he wanted to see us judged by the content of our character and not the color of our skin. Apparently Soccer Mom Karen never understood this or never understood the difference.
Kind of an update.
A church mass shooting in Texas was recently stopped by a lawfully armed citizen firing a single shot. The shooter was stopped dead in his tracks.
Please note that the law that enabled the man to do this was lobbied AGAINST by Mom's Demand Action, an organization chock full of of Soccer Mom Karens.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Happy New Year. Big deal.
I was in bed by ten last night per SOP. It's what I have done for years.
The last year I was home for it I had a quick snort and hit the rack early and woke up feeling pretty good which was a pretty good way to start the year.
Of course a lot of people woke up feeling like hell because they were stupid and decided to tangle with an entire bottle of bourbon.
I have never figured out why a person that has a cold beer on the Fourth of July and a glass of wine at Thanksgiving thinks he's a match for a bottle of bourbon on New Year's eve. It makes no sense yet it seems like every year the amateurs come out and wind up making a mess of themselves one way or the other.
Actually to their credit, fewer of them get behind the wheel. My guess is their spouse puts their foot down and takes charge and either calls a cab or stays sober and does the driving.
I suppose I can't gripe if Joe Amateur stays out from behind the wheel.

Someone asked me about what he should do to build himself a good
Pennsylvania deer rifle.
He went on and on about the various calibers and barrels, scopes and stocks and who to got to put this masterpiece together. He carried on for quite some time before he asked me what I use when I go deer hunting.
His jaw dropped when I told him I use a Model 94 Winchester I picked up in a pawn shop.
Then he started stammering and stuttering about this and that and how I was doing it all wrong because he just KNEW he had to have an expensive custom made rifle to bag a poor deer with.
I shrugged that the old war horse worked for me and I never had any problems with it because the overwhelming majority of deer kills in PA are well under 100 yards and most of them are well under 50 yards.
His brain unfogged a bit when I told him that a custom gun is nice to own but is entirely unnecessary and on top of that I don't care if the old Winchester gets scratched up a bit. It is going to get scratched up in the woods.
Then I asked him how upset he'd be if his new spendy custom got banged up a bit. He looked sort of upset at the thought.
When he asked me about accuracy I told him that a minute of venison is all you need and the deer isn't going to know if he got hit with a 30-30, a.308 or a 6.5 Creedmoor.
I do believe I opened his eyes a bit because he asked me where the pawn shop was.

I just read that in Virginia the score is now 87 out of 95 counties that
have declared themselves Second Amendment sanctuaries.
Yet the powers that be in Richmond have decided not to back down and plan on enacting unconstitutional gun control laws. Interesting.
There is a protest march scheduled in Richmond for 20 January and from what I have heard the Virginia State Police already estimate that it will be attended by 30,000 people. It is very possible that these figures are low.
For a perspective there are only 7500 people in the Virginia National guard and an inordinate number of them come from the sanctuary counties. It is certain that many of these have no intention of supporting the muckety-mucks running Richmond. An awful lot of these people own guns that are on the proposed ban list.
A number of these will probably call in sick or whatever and it is entirely possible there will be a mutiny. At the very least there will be a lot of foot dragging.
Many plan on attending armed and in full battle kit which should make things interesting. It looks to me like it is more of a show of force than a quiet protest.
Yet the elected officials are probably pretty naive and will likely enact the legislation and we shall see what we shall see.
I have said that a tarring and feathering of a few of these elected officials should make a statement that will get the rest of them to change their minds. I'm not too sure about that anymore.
People in power tend to be insulated and many seem to think they are immune to whatever comes down the pike. Others it has been reported have out and out been bought. They're going to have to drum up an awful lot of cash to pay it back and they are likely scared of what happens if they don't do the bidding for the benefactor.
We may very well be near the time where the people have to revert back to a little Old School persuasion if they want to keep their liberties. I'm sure a lot of people think it's time to dig the pitchfork out of the barn and find a torch of some sort and pay these people a little visit in their homes. Can't say as I blame them.

Yeah. That was me with the long gun glassing the AO.
It's funny how the sarcasm goes on the net. There's a lot of BS that flies and God only knows how much of it gets taken as gospel.
I was about two thousand miles from an innocent business transaction. One of the guys was selling a radio he outgrew and another guy on the same board bought it. It was a more than fair deal.
They were discussing the deal on the board because the seller went well out of his way to teach the buyer how the damned thing works.
I jumped in and told them I was in high cover with the long gun glassing the area to make sure nobody tried to rob them during the transaction.
Most people that read this will know it's Bravo Sierra but there's always one guy that will get all wide-eyed and take it as gospel.
When you read something at least TRY and ask your self if it makes sense. Why would I take it upon myself to do something and how was I possibly to know where the transaction was going to take place?

Know that wonderful Virginia neighborhood you managed to bust your ass to afford a nice home in?
You went in hock up to your ears to afford a decent place to live there so you could raise your kids in a halfway decent neighborhood. Surprise!
Virginia House Del. Ibraheem Samirah introduced a bill that would override local zoning officials to permit multi-family housing in every neighborhood, changing the character of quiet suburbs.
Good bye American dream.
Enter Section 8 etc, etc.
What REALLY sucks is you are still expected to pay for what is certain to turn into a drug ridden crime infested neighborhood.
Sucks to be you if the Democrats get their way.
Of course you can bet your ass that it won't apply to the people that ram this through.
These are the same people that are trying to outlaw firearms in Virginia and put the people in the position where they will be unable to tell Richmond to cease and desist.

I just read where the US is no longer sending bomb sniffing dogs
to either Egypt or Jordan because the animals are being abused.
I have no problem with this at all. None whatsoever.
I don't give a damn how their religion or whatever regards dogs. A trained animal is a true jewel and should be treated well. If you are not going to respect what we send you to try and help you out then we should stop sending them over there.
Find your own bombs.
Good luck.

I did it again
I was sitting in an aisle seat on an airplane that was close to the bathroom. A little girl and her mother were standing next to my seat waiting their turn.
I looked at the little girl and said, "I used to have a pretty little girl just like you." She smiled.
The mother said to me, "Then she grew up, right?"
With a straight face I answered her, "No, Ma'am. I lost her in a poker game. My wife was so mad about it that she wouldn't speak to me for almost two whole months!"

It is OK to bring your lunch on an airline.
Lately I have been doing a considerable amount of flying which is no longer any fun but it is what it is.
The airlines have little cold meals you can buy but it sure as hell isn't what it used to be.
Recently I stuffed a sub sandwich in my bag and TSA saw it, looked at it and let it pass. About halfway across this great land of ours I broke it out and washed it down with an airline supplied soft drink. Nobody looked twice and I get a halfway decent meal with no bullshit or fanfare.
Pro tip: If you can have the sub made with a pretzel roll. It seems not to get anywhere near as soggy as a basic sub roll when you carry it along with you.
Where possible I am going to make a habit of bringing my own lunch on long flights.

Pro tip: If you can have the sub made with a pretzel roll. It seems not to get anywhere near as soggy as a basic sub roll when you carry it along with you.
Where possible I am going to make a habit of bringing my own lunch on long flights.

Gun control advocation by an elected official is an admission
that they are incapable of leading an armed populace.
An Army platoon sergeant runs a platoon. Generally he's not a college grad but a handful are. He takes the basic responsibility for the lives of about 40 guys. He leads about 40 ARMED men and sometimes in combat.
Some of them are pretty tough cookies. In addition to be responsible for feeding, clothing, sheltering and arming them they are also responsible for disciplining them. Some of these men in his platoon can be pretty rambunctious. They don't like being put on extra duty, losing a stripe or a part of their pay.
There really is nothing keeping one of the good sergeants charges from shooting him in the back in combat and actually getting away with it. Yet is very rarely happens.
Why? It's called leadership. when push comes to shove his people know that he's the guy that will bring them home safely back to their loved ones.
A number of our elected officials seem to want us disarmed.
Sounds to me like an admission that they can't lead. That or they want things from us they couldn't get otherwise if we were armed.
I don't know about them but if I were in a leadership position I would want the people I lead to be armed to the teeth. It would make the group I was leading all that more powerful.
Read 'The Prince' by Niccolo Machiavelli sometime.

Someone showed me a letter that Elizabeth Warren sent to then president Obama
asking him to issue a pardon for Ethel Rosenberg who was executed with her husband, Julius for selling military secrets to the Russians including nuclear bomb secrets.
Leave it to Elizabeth Warren to ask for Ethel's pardon and throw Julius under the bus. Typical liberal sexist bullshit. I expect no less of her.

You can lose your rights.
It's not hard to do.
Someone told me you don't hit a woman. He's wrong. You don't hit a LADY. As soon as she starts something she loses her rights as a lady.
I saw a women knocked out one time and when it happened every woman present cheered. The victim was a man hating bitch that thought that kneeing a guy in the groin was OK. She tried it to a fisherman and missed his testicles. The fisherman responded in kind. She was promptly knocked cold and the women of the establishment dragged her outside and tossed her into a dumpster where she came to in a pile of beer cans.
By her conduct she lost her rights to be treated like a lady. It's a two way street. If you act like a lady you will be treated like a lady. If you don't act like one you won't be treated like one.
Same hold true for people of any age.
Melania and Barron Trump have chosen to stay out of the political fray. The deserve to be left out. The Obama kids stayed out of the limelight and were allowed to do so. Fair enough.
On the other hand both David Hogg and Greta Thunberg have decided to enter the fray and therefore open themselves up to public criticism. When they entered the fray they lost their rights to be protected from criticism.
I recently criticized Greta and a couple of people gave me the "She's a child" rap. She's a child that chose to enter the public limelight and therefore lost her right to be protected as one.
Someone pointed out that she's a special needs child and therefore is protected. Nope.
Someone else pointed out that her parents should go to jail for child abuse for parading around a special needs child. I do believe they are right but I digress.
The minute she stood up and picked up the microphone and went public she lost her rights. Sorry. You can have one or the other but you can't have both. That's the way it works.
Incidentally you can expect her to fall off the map once her handlers have no more use for her.
David Hogg is another one. He picked up the microphone and spouted off.
A relative said Hogg was a nice boy the media was helping out.
Bullshit! He was and likely still is a tool. His handlers seem to have no use for him anymore because you don't hear much from him these days.

Time for another sloppy breakfast.
Fry onions and peppers, add some cut up stew pork and fry the whole mess up until it's done. Then toss in a couple of eggs to stick it all together. Scramble until done.
