FUN: “Greasy Spoon” badge

LOL! Another meaningless inet thing.

Congrats! Your recent check-in at 29 Diner just unlocked the Greasy Spoon badge, Level 3!

Sticky vinyl booths, bottomless mugs of joe, apple pie fresh out of the display case… Does that waitress have syrup on her hairnet? Sounds like diner heaven to us. Now, treat yourself to onion rings. Or a milkshake. We suggest both.

You’ve been to 10 different diners! The next level is only 5 more new diners away! Milkshake city!

*** begin quote ***

In nearly all movies involving “gangsters” with guns, you’re bound to see the firearm cocked sideways.

*** and ***

The technique for proper shooting that Davis recommends is called “building a castle.“ He writes on the site that the castel is built by ”lining up the three ‘turrets’” –that is the turrets on the top of the gun — with the intended target, making sure they are level and evenly paced.

*** end quote ***

Because the uneducated and unpeacticed have no clue what they are doing. Some range time would quickly show them that the proper technique taught for a hundred years is correct.

If you want to hit your target, rather than “look kool”!
