Baltimore Bound, Baby!

After a couple of days rest and relaxation here in Yankee Country, TOTWTYTR and I are headed to Baltimore for EMS Today.

I shared a great meal with the Massachusetts contingent of the gunblogger tribe at Carrabba’s Italian Grill. In attendance were myself, TOTWTYTR, Libertyman, Weerdbeard, Libertyman, Old Windways, reader and commenter Kyle, and of course our host, Jay G.

As always, my trips up here was entertaining and educational. For instance, I learned:

  1. The waitresses at Carrabba’s won’t bat an eyelash at ribald jokes about the difference between some prostitutes and bowling balls, but they will gape in horrified fascination at an explation of the proper way to have sex with a goat.
  2. Gun shops, no matter where they are, always have That Guy*. Texas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Arkansas, or the Commonwealth of Taxachusetts, they all have That Guy.
  3. I need to get on Gunbroker and buy up all the used Glocks I can find, and then partner with a Massachusetts FFL to resell them. I could probably retire in five years. I mean, $850 for a used Glock 23, with a puny 10-round magazine? Are they serious?

We’ll most likely be found at the National EMS Museum Foundation booth (#4036) or at the EMS Today Podcasting Studio, and we’ll be at the JEMS Fire/EMS Blogger Meetup on Thursday night. Y’all come see us!

* Usually found loudly pontificating at length on subjects of which he has no knowledge, about guns he doesn’t own, to people furtively looking for some avenue of escape.
