On Sunday I plan to explore the Bongeunsa Buddhist temple that is within walking distance of my hotel in Seoul. I’ll be eating lightly that day while shifting my body clock forward sixteen (or back eight) hours. A bowl of BonJuk (Korean soup with lots of “stuff”) from one of the neighborhood restaurants is likely but will probably be my only full meal that day. I’ll fill in with snacks and such when my stomach feels up to something.

A month ago – the last time I was at the range – I noticed that my wad gun shots were all hitting the target about 1-2" to the left of where I thought they should be. This may be a sign that the shooter’s trigger finger is in the wrong spot and, when the sear breaks from the hammer hooks, the trigger finger is pushing the muzzle left (or right) a fraction of a second before the bang.

Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”

• hear that raucous alarm clock;
• use one of these paper thin bath towels;
• sneak a coffee out of the buffet breakfast because there’s none elsewhere; or
• wait for hours at a crowded airport gate before sitting for hours in a full airplane, and then wait a whole fricken’ hour at the luggage carousel where everyone jams up front even though the bags coming out aren’t from their flight.

For a while, that is.

Any reloaders try these products yet? I’m interested in the stainless steel media. See http://www.stainlesstumblingmedia.com for products - I’m thinking about the 5 lbs of media and, other than washing it occasionally to remove the dust, it should last forever. (But note they say it will not work in vibratory cleaners. You must tumble.)

“Favela” is the Portugeuse word for a slum, a shanty town often made of cobbled together wood and cardboard shelters with dirt walkways and terrible poverty. Long-standing favelas will migrate toward brick and mortar but this simply “hardens” the situation.
