I could live in a warmer state and still own guns, couldn't I?Ah well, at least the cold helps to keep the riff-raff away.

It's 11°F (-12°C) outside this morning, with the stiff westerly wind bringing the wind chill down to -5°F (-21°C). My car doors were frozen shut this morning because of the rain (yes, rain!) we experienced yesterday. Spent about 10 minutes chipping ice from around the driver's door to gain entry.
Why, oh why, do I live here?
Edit: Wrong temperature conversion

Did you know that, on average, the Twin Cities experience colder winter temperatures than the major population centers in Alaska? I'd move to Alaska if I wanted to go someplace warmer!

Were the lasers on the guns correctly calibrated to aim at the point of impact? It's usually the armorer's duty to do that.If all else fails, it should be easy enough to revert to using the iron sights and just ignore the bobbing red dot on the target.
How many rounds did you fire today?

I think that's what they're counting on: make it as inconvenient as possible to get the refund so most people won't bother with it. -

I don't get why my lecturer is always making typos and all kinds of mistakes here and there....in lecture notes, in tutorial, even in exams and announcements.
In the latest gaffe, he mass-sent everyone an email that ended with: There will be no final exams.
walao. Final exam is this friday leh!
And then next email he had to type: Sorry, I meant no make-up for final exams

I reckon they sleep very well at night...How long will it be before they play the "honest mistake, let's move on" tune?

I recommend no engravings and cheap patternless bands so that you can easily replace if lost and less need to worry about the band. Be practical about it
