Some Funny Gun Comics

Jeph Jacques, who does the webcomic Questionable Content, had remarked that he hates when people don’t draw guns realistically. So, he brings his own unique twist:

AND

Jeph is not a gun person, but those are still funny as hell. If you’re not reading Questionable Content, I would highly recommend it. Start from the beginning. There are so many great story arcs.

Geek Equivalent of Black Friday

So my brother and me woke up early to pre-order the new iPhone 5. As we were texting back and forth waiting for 3am to hit, I made the comment that it was kind of like waiting outside a Best Buy on Black Friday. Except I never had to leave my bed.

I love the internets.

New Monter Hunter Novel Will Always Take Precedence

Monster Hunter Legion, the latest in the Monster Hunter series by the Larry Corriea released this week. I am grateful that the audio version dropped the same week as the dead-tree version. First, because I don’t have to spend long weeks avoiding spoilers in the gun blogs. Secondly, in my day job, there are long stretches that I can fill up with podcasts or audiobooks. The audio versions of the MH books are awesome and are part of my normal “EDC” of audiobooks on my phone. I’ve listened to just over half so far, and Legion is keeping up with its predecessors and looks to surpass.

A special congratualtions and thank you goes out to Robb Allen, whose Tampa-based MHI team was included in this book. As a fellow resident of Tampa, it was exciting to hear the Sticks of Fire team mentioned. May he enjoy his contribution to the MH-verse to the fullest extent possible. (Slightly jealous because in my infite stupidity, I didn’t get my own team submitted in time).
