Your old Uncle Joel is going to be in a Forgotten Weapons video! And not in a small way. I just saw it and it’s cool. Will come out sometime next month if I understood correctly.

Scary Manifesto that keeps getting pushed down on the sidebar by filthy capitalism!
They say that Louis XIV had the inscription Ultima Ratio Regum cast into all the cannon of the French Army. It means “The Ultimate Argument of Kings,” and that always struck me as one of the most honest and up-front things any ruler or would-be ruler ever said. “We can dress it up prettier than this, but when it comes down to the unvarnished truth this is what it’s about: You’ll do as I say or I’ll send my goons to kill you.”
I thought about that for a long time. If there’s an ultimate argument, it seems only logical that there must be an ultimate answer. For years I thought the ultimate answer must be the bullets in my rifle, but it never seemed quite right. I’ve got bullets – he’s got frigging Cannon Balls. I mean, if there were three hundred million rifles throwing bullets at him, then maybe. But we all know that’s not going to happen. So if there’s an ultimate answer to his ultimate argument, it sure as hell ain’t bullets.
It finally came to me – and that’s when I abandoned the city and most of my stuff, and gave all that was behind me a good stiff Randian Shrug.
The ultimate answer to kings is not a bullet, but a belly laugh.

I just saw a preview on the book of faces.
Well hell then, you better get your amazon wishlist in order! Get ready for the flood!
(congrats!)
Any other preview opportunity for those of us who don’t face the book?
This site is as close as I come to “Social Media”. 😉
Yeah, I’d like to see that myself. Paul, can you post a link?
That’s something I look forward to seeing.
Sorry, it was on a private group that I’m not sure why I haven’t been kicked out of for not being cool enough.
You did seem to like that tiny sig.
😉 Yeah, I just had tea with Ian, who said it was a private group. So shared linky no happen. Apparently it’s just a clip of me firing one of the four subcompacts in the video.
I hope you remember us little folks when the fame goes to your head 😉
That may be a problem since I’ve already forgotten what I had for breakfast…
With you now appearing with Gun Jesus, does that make you, what . . . Gun Moses?
Noooope. Just means I’ve been in a FW video. 🙂 I’m far from the only one. In this case he was looking for somebody familiar with shooting in general but specifically not familiar with sub-compact 9mm pistols.
Looking good, can’t wait to see you guys strut your stuff.
