First Post: Pimp My Blog!

I've been meaning to start this blog for a while anyway. But I've been pushed over the edge. I can't help myself. I'm a gun nut and now, a link whore. At the bottom of this post I take up Ignatius Piazza on this offer. If you don't know what Front Sight is, there are thirty-some links that will tell you everything you need to know about it. It's for real.

Front Sight is an interesting concept. It combines a high-end firearms training facility and shooting range with a real estate development. Weird? If you don't play golf, a house on a golf course is pretty weird too, except we're used to the idea. I'd love to see a similar development in Phoenix near or adjacent to Ben Avery Shooting Facility. That range was once so far out in the sticks coyotes had to hitch-hike to it. It now has houses all around it. The picture from Google Earth is at least a year old. The red tile roofs are now south of Carefree Highway.


*Sigh*

While I'm plugging Ignatius Piazza, I may as well pimp out my own site. My brother Jeff and I run (direct? coordinate?) The Firearms Coalition which is a resource for grassroots Second Amendment activists. My original intent with this blog was to talk about stuff that I don't ordinarily talk on the Net about — my profession as an IT architect, business, politics culture — all this stuff that's not appropritate for The Firearms Coalition. Hence the "Off-Topic" title. But Ignatius's deal was too sweet. Couldn't pass it up. I'd have put the links up on The Firearms Coalition but my brother beat me to it and I figured it'd be less than kosher for us both to put the same links up twice.
