Feral Kittens

Admittedly, this year’s pig story isn’t nearly as good as last year’s pig story (no coats) but the fact that we have a yearly pig story is interesting. This year’s saga (told via facebook) went something along the lines of: ‘Oh, interesting pig!”Neat type. New to the area.

No Second Amendment in China
Nail guns, modified to shoot 22 bullets, are an alternative in the people’s republic where the right to keep and bear arms doesn’t exist. Human ingenuity in overcoming the gun-banners. I think the picture is of guns seized by some sort of police (I can’t read the Chinese). The whole story is here. I do kind of admire the chunk of tree used for a stock on the center rifle.
