    What’s on your 2026 reading list?

    Right now, I’m reading the Holy Bible through chronologically. Started last year and am now in the book of Isaiah. Additional reading for this year will include The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Stop in the Name of God by Charlie Kirk, Liberal Privilege by Don Jr, and probably a couple Hemingway...

    Writing for your spouse?

    🤣 funny but true. She deserves the world, and I wouldn’t want to do life with anyone else

    Best Value Bourbons Right Now? Anyone?

    I’ve been on a streak with Buffalo Trace and Weller. Found Weller for about $30 right around Thanksgiving at the store down the street. Buffalo Trace stays pretty steady at $25.

    The chinaman is not the issue here, Dude.

    Bear Claw: You’ve come far Pilgrim Jeremiah: Feels like far Bear Claw: Were it worth the trouble? Jeremiah: Ah, what trouble?

    Writing for your spouse?

    We keep a pad of sticky notes on the counter and write each other notes regularly. I’ve collected her notes in one of my work notebooks, just to keep, and I always try to remember to date them. Great way to keep intimacy alive in a marriage. It’s not the grandiose gestures. It’s the little...

    Where’s home base for you and what do you do when you’re not working?

    I’d love to catch up some time and talk guns! Let me know when

    Best gun deal?

    They’re fine rifles and I’m always on the hunt for a good one at a good price. Most that I’ve seen have been carried a lot and shot very little, which is fine by me.

    Best gun deal?

    I have a few: Picked up a fixed choke Winchester 101 20 gauge a couple years ago for $500, so that has to be the best one. Great wood, decent bluing, no complaints. Second would be the Beretta BL-4 20 gauge with fixed chokes for $500 in 2022 and gifted that one to my dad with the understanding...

    My name is Caleb, and I run laps.

    A small smattering of pictures over the years. I need to take pics more often because I have worn this watch virtually every day since I’ve gotten it. One day, I’ll tell the full story behind the watch, but for now, I’ll keep wearing it every day while using it to time laps.

    My name is Caleb, and I run laps.

    It’s a strong Old Testament name: Numbers 13:30: “But Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, “Let us go up at once and occupy it, for we are well able to overcome it.”” People named Caleb have always had huge balls. Some of us just haven’t had the equivalent in brains…

    The Best J Frame

    I have a S&W 640-1 (pre lock).I prefer the steel guns over the scandium. She’s hefty, but that heft combined with the Pachmayr Grip makes her a dream to shoot, even with hot .357 mag, and I like having the option to run .357 mag. I had a S&W 442, but I didn’t like being married to .38 special...

    What are you carrying currently?

    Let’s see it. What are you currently carrying? Do you have a rotation, do you swap ‘em seasonally, or do you stick with the old standby? My rotation: Smith and Wesson 640-1 (I carry this in the FE Ghost holster) Smith and Wesson M&P Shield 9mm Performance Center Glock 19 Gen 5 with a Vortex...

    If you could only pick one gun as a carry gun for the rest of your life, what would it be?

    The nostalgic answer is the S&W M&P Shield 9mm Performance Center that I’ve had since I turned 21. But, the logical answer is my Glock 19 Gen 5, and it always will be. It’s a dumb answer, but it’s the right answer, at least for me.

    Where’s home base for you and what do you do when you’re not working?

    My name is Caleb, and I live in Northern Colorado. When I’m not at my job in the Beef industry, I’m running laps. When not running laps, I’m smoking and grilling outside or exploring the outdoors with the family. When I’m not doing that, I’m a handgun addict. I turned 30 in November and...

    My name is Caleb, and I run laps.

    Just some food for thought: The worst thing in the world is the coward that doesn’t take ownership for his actions. In the end, we’re all gonna die anyway. Ain’t a single one of us getting off this rock alive. When you (whoever is reading this) inevitably die, do you really want people to find...
