General:

A photo for the Armourer of Blogworld

    By Jack Grant

While I was in Brussels, I went to the Belgian Royal Military Museum (that's only a rough translation of the name...). I took many photos, but I took this one especially for John of Argghhh! Look at the sign on the door to understand why (click on the thumbnail to get a bigger image):


Artillery


I'll post more photos from the museum and the rest of my trip soon.

And we thanks you for it! One of the most accurate guns in the world. I still miss it. And I have real problems seeing systems I served with in museums!

Random Fate - latest posts

We don't handle randomness well.
   -Dr. Lucy Jones


Trying to hold the center in not so quiet desperation while the left and the right do their damnest to tear everything apart.

What Others Say
An American transplanted to France for the moment, Jack is sometimes conservative, sometimes liberal, and almost always right.
   -Pennywit

Jack has an impressive knowledge of history, politics, and Keanu Reeves. When it comes to pirates, Jack is waaay sexier than that pansy Dread Pirate Roberts. Oh, wait--I'm thinking of Jack Sparrow...
   -Jennifer (Jennifer's History and Stuff)

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
   -William Butler Yeats, January 1919


Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Wahabism Delenda Est
Wahabism must be destroyed.
