We're the Only Ones Fudging Enough
More from Steve Lee
From an email to correspondent Redleg:
Just to let you know, i am working closely with THE AUSTRALIAN SHOOTERS PARTY who are and always will be fighting to repeal the tight gun laws we have here. I also give them $2 from every album i sell to help the fight. If i happen to be misrepresented again, even if i stuff up and say the wrong thing or get misquoted, feel free to email me again. Thanks again for your help in this matter.

About that "Friendlier Face"...
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) intends to purchase sixty Remington Model 870 Police RAMAC #24587 12 gauge pump-action shotguns for the Criminal Investigation Division. The Remington parkerized shotguns, with fourteen inch barrel, modified choke, Wilson Combat Ghost Ring rear sight and XS4 Contour Bead front sight, Knoxx Reduced Recoil Adjustable Stock, and Speedfeed ribbed black forend, are designated as the only shotguns authorized for IRS duty based on compatibility with IRS existing shotgun inventory, certified armorer and combat training and protocol, maintenance, and parts.

This Day in History: February 3
On February 3, 1778, Congress, having taken into consideration the report of the special committee appointed to devise effectual means to prevent persons disaffected to the interest of the United States from being employed in any of the important offices thereof, resolved, That every officer who held or should thereafter hold a commission or office from Congress, should subscribe the oath or affirmation of allegiance.
