Oh the Humanity

As I mentioned early last week, I was fortunate enough to procure some leftover pumpkins from my local grocer. And as promised, I present to you the pics from The First Annual "Analog Kid's Pumpkin Splaughter". Along with fellow bloggers and their friends, I invited some of my co-workers to the event. More guns is always better.
Click away, my friends

Here is the pic of the group from the Saturday session standing atop some of the early members of the invading gourd horde.


L to R: Bill, Joe, Raging Dave, Ari and Ms. Sondra

And here is the crew from the Sunday session doing their best to oppress the gourd menace.

L to R: Chris, Brian, Brett and Erik (Mollbot).

Of course, I would be doing you all a great disservice if I did not show a pic of the armament used to fight The Great Pumpkin Invasion of 2003.

Sadly, I did not remember to take a pic of the Sunday armaments. They included a Ruger Mini-14, a Stevens 12ga., a second Ruger 10/22, a Ruger Blackhawk in 357Mag, Beretta 92 9mm, a Taurus PT-111 in 9mm, S&W; K-22, and another Remington 870 in 20ga. Not pictured in this shot (because I'm a dork and forgot to lay them out) was a Ruger 22/45, my new CZ 83 and my 1911 carry piece (it was still on my hip, duh).

And lastly, here is all that remains of the combined armies of Gourdia and Pumpkinastan. Mollbot and I set forth upon them with axe and machete at the end of the day to make sure that there were no survivors to report information from the front.

They never knew what hit them. Mostly because we didn't yell things like "Twelve Guage!!" before we pulled the trigger. Maybe in future invasions they'll send more pumpkin soldiers. We hope. Hehehehehe.

Total pumpkins splaughtered: over 100
Total bloggers injured: 0

Advantage: Blogosphere

I got a shot of the Sunday armaments... well, yours and mine. Chris, Brett and Brian didn't have their laid out for the shot.

I would've lent my Kar98, .410 Mossberg, 1911, Mauser 300 Mag, My Mom's .357 mag and assorted other devices...but alas...I live on the east coast.

Dang pumpkins, they're always eyeing me...

Thanks, guys. We can sleep soundly knowing you have saved us from the Orange Peril.

It was such a BLAST!
And we were so outnumbered too!

HOORAH! That was one HELL of a good time!

The girlfriend was pissed because I stopped on the way home to replenish my .38 Spc. ammo, though. Sometimes I wonder about that girl....

Ah well, Ammo day is coming up! Muahahahahaaaaa!

Raging Dave, did you at least make her dinner as promised:)

Dave,

You just hit my favorite list. Thanks for the kudos over at Acidman.

Blog-building in process. I'm taking the time to "do it right", but it's coming along.

Until then, I'm honored by your applause.

You'll damned sure be on MY blogroll, sir!

Yep Sondra, I cooked up some boneless pork ribs, rubbed with Rosemary, cracked peppercorns, and seasoned salt, then drizzled with a little bit of lemon juice, seared and then slow baked. Add a baked potato with freshly grated garlic cheddar, and you have one hell of a meal.

Jim, you've always been pretty damn intelligent from what I've seen, but your dressing down of Ralphy was just awsome. Me, I'm over there to insult little Ralph and get my kicks. Besides, he's been trolling my blog as well, so I figured I'll hunt him down and troll his comments as much as possible. They just don't like it when you do that to them.
