I’m sure there are much tougher dudes walking around- although those who know me do know I am basically a totally bad ass.  That being said this bad ass lived through the swine flu with no shots, no nasal spray and only about 5 bucks worth of over the counter meds.  Take that flu!

I have been missing from the site for a few weeks while dealing with this flu, which was in fact H1N1.  I cant speak for kids or the elderly but i lived to tell the tale with no help but some good common sense, although I may be guilty of spreading the disease to about 5 of my close friends, but they are tough and should be ok.

As a normal healthy adult I can say this- get the vaccine if you really want, but chances are you will deal with this thing just like you would the normal flu (which kills all kinds of people every year as it is).  There are probably bigger issues to worry about unless you fall into the high risk groups.  There you have it.

So  after complaining into to ether about how the Becker BK-2’s stock grips suck, one of my 3 readers sent me a sweet link to aftermarket Ka-bar grips that look way better than the crappy stock set.

Disclaimer: I have not used or even seen these things in person, but I am very familiar with what I don’t like about my stock grips and from the look of it these are a big improvement, and for 30 bucks its probably worth the risk..maybe I will even order a pair and find out for my self

Check out these custom micarta grips at tomskabars.com.   Thanks to Jim for the heads up!
