ONT 5/29/16 - You're only as good as your Tools edition. [krakatoa]

The long sojourn is over. Your deliverance is at hand. The cows are coming home to roost. Starting tomorrow, you will be graced with the inimitable presence of a tanned, rested and fully operational Maetenloch.

I would hope that the last 3 weeks have reawakened in each of you a respect for Maet and his relentless nightly presentation of quality content for the low low price of your choice of either an everlasting soul or a shot of Val-U-Rite.

Just in case it has not, you have me for one more night to remind you of the void that exists in the ONT without Maet.

Before we proceed, please take the time to properly thank those who stepped up to fill in.* In no particular order: WeirdDave, Neidermeyer's Dead Horse, Misanthropic Humanitarian, Slu, and of course, CDR M for never abandoning his weekend post in the first place.

They were asked for and delivered yeoman's work, and I want to give a particular shout out to Slu for going the extra mile even though I thought I'd made it clear that the dress code specifically called for tops as well.

MATT DAMON is reprising Jason Bourne.

I can't deny I've enjoyed all the Bourne flicks, so I'll probably watch this one, albeit not in a theater.

Nobody talks much about the Bourne Legacy with not MATT DAMON, but for my money, I enjoyed it almost as much as the first. I really dig the idea of exploring the Bourne space, so-to-speak, and I found the animating aspect of Jeremy Renner's character to be pretty compelling -- what would you do to keep from falling back into the veil of severely impaired intellect?

Plus,

I tested my Mom's gun this weekend -- I'd bought her a Taurus PT-111 Millennium years ago. It's on the recall list, but I couldn't duplicate the scary accidental discharge issue that was found in the 24/7.

Even so, I'll package it up and send it back to them for inspection & repair or replacement.

If you own one of the pistols in the class, here's the site with information on how to proceed.
