    Ah, the shame of only being able to give you a 5. Deserves so much more. :-D

      My bugs are of a finer quality late at night. The early morning ones? A little rough, a little uncivilised. Code. I mean code, not bugs.

                Why is it that the construction crew that has spent the last 3 weeks ripping up the road outside my house does all the jack-hammering and road splitting at 7am-8am, then all the leaning around on shovels and nodding sagely to each other from 8-11, then are no where to be seen by mid afternoon? I've been working late (well, early, really) to try and fit everything in but there's no sleeping past 7am while the kids outside play. Wow - the glasses in my cupboards have just setup a symphony...

                The foreman is only there at 7 and 4.

                  Hmmm, I use JHP in my 1911's, so I'd have to use an AR-15 if I want a chance at two kills with one shot (a 5.56 NATO round will go through 1/4-inch steel plate at up to 30 yards, so soft-tissue shouldn't be a problem).

                  Overpenetration is a problem. Even with a good backstop to make it safe it's energy that's not causing damage to the target.

                      And even though you can get JHP in 5.56, I still prefer my 1911s - FMJ ball may go through the intended target, but it'll do a lot of damage on it's way to the other side. :)

                        But it will only last for a couple of seconds, and then there will be complete silence (if you ignore the sirens from rapidly approaching emergncy vehicles).

                                I got into it once with some construction workers when I was in college. It was the middle of the summer and I was very hungover (possibly still drunk) and they started before it was even light out. Apparently, someone saw it and called the cops, who sided with me and shut them down until normal work hours (turns out there is a local law regarding construction work before 8AM).

What a Ride!" — Hunter S. Thompson
