Video: Japanese guys handling guns in a Bass Pro Shop (this is what America is all about!)


Two Japanese tourists, in the country for the World Cup soccer tournament, visited a Bass Pro Shop.  Somehow they found their way to the firearms department.  They could not buh-leeeeve all that magnificent firepower on sale to the general public.  The Japanese guys asked if they could touch the guns and as you can see they got the full enjoyment out of handling them.
Oh yeah, and notice that they are wearing Buc-ee's hats.

This has to be the greatest video I've seen in awhile.  The look on the Japanese duo's faces as they heft aloft various handguns, rifles and shotguns.  Doing something that is definitely not allowed in most of the world (but it should be allowed, that's what truly free countries do).

I've heard lots of stories about how foreign guests here for the World Cup have been discovering the real America and being impressed by all the freedom and opportunity that we have here.  That is refreshing.  It should also make us as Americans all the more thankful for the blessings we have been given.  We are still that shining city on the hill, despite the efforts of some to diminish that beauty.  We still have a magnificent example to show the world.  This video demonstrates that.

Okay well, 'nuff from me.  You want to see America at some of its best.  Mash down here for the video of two Japanese men in Buc-ee's caps handling guns in a Bass Pro Shop.  And prepare to smile :-)

Congrats to Spain on winning the World Cup!

But if we have to listen to vuvuzelas again, it'll be only too soon!

Funniest thing I've read all week

"Twilight is like World Cup soccer. They run around for 2 hours, nobody scores, and a billion fans insist that 'you just don't understand'."

This would be the most annoying video game ever

Had enough of listening to those vuvuzelas during the World Cup broadcasts?

If not, get ready for...

No, I didn't make this. Whoever did, deserves major props for such a great piece of work :-)

England/USA World Cup match replicated in LEGO

If there's fun to be had with the World Cup and plastic toys (not those 127 decibels, unholy loud vuvuzelas) then there's no better way than to replay the match between England and the United States with LEGO!

Thanks to Paul Steinbrueck for such a delightful (and clever) find!

The World Cup starts today!

The World Cup kicked off today in South Africa. Let's hear it for soccer!

I have nothing else to say. The only reason I made this post is because if made one about "World Cup" and included the words "soccer" and "sports" and "South Africa" and probably also "Uruguay" and "Argentina" and "Spain" and "Belgium" (can't forget our good friends in Belgium... yeah hey to you too Benny) then The Knight Shift blog is no doubt going to get slammed with a wazoo of hits during the next 72 hours or so :-P

Seriously though: good luck to everyone!

(And lest y'all think I'm completely clueless about the World Cup, I'll have y'all know that I not only watched the Three Tenors in Concert live during the World Cup in 1994, but I'm also a proud owner of the CD too!)
