When I first became a medic, I didn’t do it to become a professional paramedic or firefighter (though that is my Grass Is Greener job). I had two specific reasons – (1) to be able to respond to any emergencies that come up with my team when we are playing paintball or hunting and (2) so I could learn all… Continue reading "Secret Fighting Arts"

Wired Magazine (Sep. 2006) recently published an article about new science projects that bump the line between scary and cool. This harkens back to the old TSR “Top Secret, S.I.” supplement – The G4 File – which covered weapons available in the gaming system, as well as a really cool section called “On The Drawing Board.” This section talked to… Continue reading "On The Drawing Board: Scary Science"

I was having a good discussion with Trey about… Continue reading "Legalism vs. Moralism"

My mom loves to tell the story about when I got the Fisher-Price Barn (you know – the one that “moos” when you open it?) and as soon as I opened the door I was no longer interested in playing with the barn, but rather how it made that… Continue reading "Hack It All"

He has a group of friends from church who are former paintballers who got tired of the speed-ball scene and moved into the more tactical and gear-intensive world of airsoft. The scenario sounded really cool – huge acreage, sub-objectives (Intel,… Continue reading "Airsoft: Paintball’s little brother"

Note: I grabbed the below essay from a primitive lifestyle’s newsgroup. I am posting in its entirety, with references below – golgo13 Long before fast-food restaurants became a part of our lives, our ancestors hunted wild animals for meat, gardened, and gathered berries, nuts and plants to provide a healthy and well-rounded diet. These “hunter-gatherers”, as they were called lived… Continue reading "Eat, Exercise, and Be Healthy: A Lesson from Our Ancestors"
