I learned something on this trip. Ordering your sirloin with a flank steak “for the table” is the way to go. Always be learning. The end.

Been in the office A LOT lately. Even when somewhere else it was just an office in a different spot. Thankful for all my opportunities but enjoying this not-office for a bit.

Comparison of the LOK Grips thin frame bogies (grey) and palm swell bogies (black). There’s an option for every hand size with this Walther Arms, Inc. PDP Steel Frame 5 inch. The palm swell has good ergonomics and opens up that support side for a lot of support hand grip and control. The slim frame makes the grip feel similar to a 2011. Feel is a poor metric though, get out there and get some measurable objective data and make your choice.

Surprise snow squall this morning on the way to the gym so I decided to pull the Walther Arms, Inc. DDX out of the safe and surprise it with some carry time. This thing saw a lot of warrant service before it was retired for the PDP. Even after all that work she’s still fresh as a daisy.

Some student teach backs on components of shooting at fi****ms instructor school today. Sorry guys, but presenting on how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich doesn’t prepare an instructor to run the range the first day they get back because their agency already has them scheduled before they even pass the class

Starting 2026 strong teaching fi****ms instructor school this week. Individual drills today. Gotte’s know where you’re at and understand the purpose of importance of measurable performance before you can coach others.

In 364 days this number won’t be zero, it just can’t be because pure evil will always exist. 2025 saw under 100 line of duty deaths. 35 auto accidents and 10 medical. I’m going to make an educated guess that at least 1 in each of those was seatbelt and obesity related. So in 2026, wear your seat belt and don’t be obese. If you can’t do that or aren’t committed to doing everything possible but understanding that confronting evil may make you a number on this list then may 2026 bring you the greatest of opportunities at Walmart.

Grabbed some Cane’s real quick while running errands with the family. While waiting for the food I just happened to have a view of the counter and watched the 20 something manager run her shift. She had a clipboard and appeared to be giving some type of random quiz to employees. I watched her show the clipboard to a girl who had just got done sweeping the floor. She answered the questions correctly apparently as the manager gave her an affirmation and a good job with a smile. A few seconds later the guy leaving the drive through spot was either going on break or leaving that station and his headset was on improperly. Instead of letting him walk by her she stopped him and simply reminded him of his head set which he promptly removed. Our food was ready and the manager got the girl who was sweeping and had her grab one of the two trays and walked the food over to us, delivered it told us where everything was and to come ask if we needed anything. She was clearly coaching the other girl. What’s my point? Somewhere today a police sergeant is going to be thanked for thier service. If you’re that Sgt, make sure you’re living up to the example of this Raising Canes manager.
