There are some goyisha names that just about guarantee that someone isn't Jewish. For example, you'll never meet a Jew named Johnson or Wright or Jones or Sinclair or Ricks or Stevenson or Reid or Larsen or Jenks. But some goyisha names just about guarantee that every other person you meet with that name will be Jewish. Why is this? Who knows? Learned rabbis have pondered this question for centuries and have failed to come up with an answer, and you think you can find one? Get serious. You don't even understand why it's forbidden to eat crab—fresh cold crab with mayonnaise—or lobster —soft tender morsels of lobster dipped in melted butter. You don't even understand a simple thing like that, and yet you hope to discover why there are more Jews named Miller than Katz? Fat Chance.

Firearms Industry Invitational Shoot

Oleg invited me down to shoot event coverage of this, and of course play with all the toys and meet all the interesting people.  Starting to be more and more I’ve met before enough to remember, too.

(That’s a 40mm grenade launcher mounted up front under the barrel.)
