Undefined Value: Kris Johnson's Blog

I bought myself some presents for Christmas and for my birthday. After all, who else can I trust to get me what I really want?

For Christmas, I bought myself the DVDs for the first season of Deadwood, and the complete series of The Office (the original British version). Deadwood is, I think, the closest thing American TV has to Shakespeare. The Office is just plain funny. If you have HBO, make sure you watch Extras.

For my 40th birthday, I bought myself a Glock 19 semi-automatic pistol and accessories. I transformed from gun-hater to gun-owner in about three weeks. I want to participate in IPSC and IPDA matches, so it made sense to buy my own gun. In fact, I now think it makes sense for everyone to buy a gun. It's amazing how much one's opinions can change. Two months ago, I wouldn't have believed that I would be buying ammo every time I went to Wal*Mart.

I appreciate the gifts my friends and family gave me for these occasions. As for the rest of you, thanks for nothing. :)
