Something old, something new - all are borrowed, and one makes me
blue!

Marko over at the munchkin wrangler (who, for all of his talent,
still hasn't figured out what the caps key is for) has penned
another winner: "tales from a gun-free society."
It's a personal
look at the societal effects of wide scale disarmament. (My general
rule is that if Marko wrote it, it must be worth reading. This is
yet another validation of that rule.)

If the name "Gecko45" means nothing to you, then you've missed out
on one of the funniest things on the 'net - the rise of the Mall
Ninja. Sadly, the original postings on GlockTalk that led to the
coining of the term are long gone, and the mallninja.com site is no
more; luckily for us, someone recognized the historical importance
of Gecko45.
His (her?) whole posts - along with some good background and
explanations - can now be
found at Lonely Machines. If you're new to the Mall
Ninja phenomenon, it's a must-read. If you remember the original,
it's a hilarious blast from the past. In either case, go. Read.
Laugh.

Gecko45 is a classic, no doubt. It's hard to beat such comedic
genius, and how many people can lay claim to inspiring a new term?
Well, Larry Correia's got a candidate of his own: the original "HK:
because you suck. And we hate you." essay. You can read it - along with his hilarious followup
- at this link. (If you're a rabid HK fan,
it's guaranteed to raise your blood pressure. If you're not, it'll
make you squirt milk out your nose.)

Happy Monday!
