Apparently I’m Obese.

posted on July 30th, 2008 in Totally Random by Bryce Beattie

Well, crap. No more grilled, stuffed burritos at the Taco Bell for me (at least for a while.) I weighed myself and punched the numbers into a BMI calculator the other day. Apparently I’m now “obese.” When did that happen? Sheesh. It’ll help now that I take my bicycle to work everyday. And I’ve stopped [...]

Getting Steamed Up

posted on July 17th, 2008 in Oasis, Totally Random by Bryce Beattie

OK, normally I take criticism in stride. I know the stuff I write is not for everybody. If you don’t like the subject matter, or my writing style, fine. There’s just some stuff that really irks me. I got a comment in the past day or so on the first chapter of Oasis that says: [...]

OK. All of you have to wish me happy birthday in the comments. Or else you may never know how Oasis ends. BwahahahahaHAhaHA!

Fountain Of Youth

posted on June 11th, 2008 in Totally Random by Bryce Beattie

Part of my real job requires me to go to West Yellowstone on a semi-regular basis. About ten miles out of town is a place which my father has always referred to as “the fountain of youth.” Every time I go to West Yellowstone, I stop at the fountain of youth. While stopping, I often [...]

Plinking With The New Guns

posted on May 7th, 2008 in Totally Random by Bryce Beattie

Please excuse my poor video editing (and marksmanship). We went shooting last weekend, here’s some “highlights.” Aurora shot her brand new Kel-Tec PF9 for the first time. She wasn’t quite ready for the recoil, but by the end of the day, she was shooting much better (I probably should have gotten video of that, too…) [...]

A Conspiracy Of Spam

posted on April 22nd, 2008 in Totally Random by Bryce Beattie

Something is definitely wrong. Here’s a screenshot of part of my current spam email folder. Click on it to see it full size. See if you can tell what’s wrong. Just in case you were wondering, I don’t speak Russian. I can’t remember ever visiting a Russian website, or posting on a Russian forum. I [...]

Gun Porn? (Naked Firearm )

posted on April 6th, 2008 in Totally Random by Bryce Beattie

I’ve been shooting many times throughout my life. I grew up with guns in the house, and every year at the family reunion, we’d gather up a group of cousins and uncles and go a’ blasting. I finally decided it was time to start bringing my own piece. So here’s the new gun. It’s a [...]

The Phoenix Mystery Castle

posted on March 24th, 2008 in Totally Random by Bryce Beattie

One of the places we stopped on our vacation was the Phoenix Mystery Castle. I’d highly recommend visiting if you’re ever in the area. It was built in the 1930′s by a man named Boyce Gulley. Well, at least it was started in the thirties. He worked on it for something like 15 years. It [...]

Bart Vs. The Banana

posted on March 11th, 2008 in Totally Random by Bryce Beattie

Here’s something to keep you occupied for about a minute. Have you ever been in a heated discussion about “which would work better in a fight?” You know – Taikwondo vs. Kenpo, rapier vs. katana, AR-15 vs AK-47. Or perhaps “who would win?” – Darth Vader vs. Captain Kirk, Superman vs Spiderman Well my brother [...]

My Life In Six Words

posted on March 5th, 2008 in Totally Random by Bryce Beattie

I was recently tagged with a blog meme. If you don’t know what a meme is, basically it’s a blog post chain letter. Anyway, here are the rules for this one. 1. Write your own six word memoir 2. Post it on your blog and include a visual illustration if you’d like 3. Link to [...]
