I HIT 42 MPG !!!!!

I usually don't continue the same blog, but I am so happy with my purchase that thought I would give you a little more insight to my ride. I have slightly altered my driving habits and am now getting 42mpg in town in my Camry! I have read where some people get 50 mpg in town so I will continue to try and achieve this. This car truly teaches you to drive a little more conservatively and I must say I am enjoying it. I am also enjoying all the people thinking that I am doing such a great thing for our mother Earth (truth be told I am doing this to save some GREEN - green money) but it's nice to know I am burning less fuel in the process.

LaserMax

Every once in a while I come across something that makes me go "WOW! I should have gotten this a long time ago." The LaserMax for my Glock 23 is one the best purchases I have made in a long time. I finally got to try it out this past weekend and I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it. The ease of use was great and the fact that it is built into the gun instead of a bulky laser attached underneath. Not to mention you can still attach a flashlight if you want. This product gets a big thumbs up from me. I'm getting ready to order one for my Glock 22 now.

NON Lethal Force

Recently a co-worker of mine found herself in a situation where she really needed some sort of defense but didn't really want to use lethal force. I have been doing some research and found the perfect solution using a mace-type product, but with a lot more kick.

Life Act JPX Jet Protector by Kimber

The new JPX Jet Protector® is the most functional and powerful hand-held OC delivery system available today. The conventional design speeds training and ensures accurate solution delivery, and a pyrotechnic drive launches near pharmaceutical grade OC solution at 270 MPH. Magazines are available in a standard or SelfClean model that can reach out to distances of 21 feet. Each magazine contains two charges with a much larger payload than the Guardian Angel, and quickly snaps on the frame. The power of each payload combined with reloading makes the JPX extremely effective for crowd control, and the conventional double action only trigger automatically resets to fire the other charge. Orange or black frames are available, and an integral laser sight is optional.

• Instantly incapacitates an assailant.
• Revolutionary non-aerosol propulsion.
• Jet delivery minimizes cross-contamination.
• Each magazine contains two powerful blasts.
• Reloading is both easy and fast.
