Here’s some crystalline minimal ECM jazz from the Tord Gustavsen Trio, with Harald Johnsen (bass) and Jarle Vespestad (drums), performing a gorgeous composition titled “Still There” from the album Being There. (iTunes Store.)

I'm awaiting the latest season of Spooks to be fully released on Netflix. Disc 1 is still on a "long wait" list. Anyway, good choice. 24 has become far too predictable, but for some reason, Spooks/MI5 never fails to disappoint.

Among friends, I've been known to say that one of the best things I took from my marriage is my love and respect for jazz. Before I met my ex, I had no clue as to how entertaining that genre of music is.
Anyway, to the peanut gallery and Lizards alike, my apologies.

No seriously. When I had to move back to OR from WA I made the stupid decision of leaving the weapon in question with my cousin (who I had been living with at the time). I didn't know what else to do, because taking it across state lines was a distinct no-no.
The story gets hazy at this point, but something happened and apparently the police have it now. If he wasn't lying about it (I don't think he would tho).
I used to get nightmares about the thing being on the loose in seattle somewhere, but its been a few years now and I've calmed down.

I amend that. Ohio also has a restriction, but their cap is 30 rounds which means the standard size mag for a AK is OK. Illinois only has restrictions for Chicago and Aurora. Morton Grove (a Chicago suburb) used to have such restrictions, but they repealed them following the Heller decision.

Remember, you also need your LEO to sign off, meaning fingerprints and mugshots, unless you remember to set things up so that your silencer is bought through an NFA compliant gun trust.
That loophole seems kind of fucked up to me, but also pretty useful and knowing is half the battle I guess. Also silencers would be useful in a zombie apocalypse. Sometimes I fear that unsuppressed gunfire will just attract more zombies.
