A well-regulated militia


Come the alien invasion, Seattle will be locked and loaded. At $600 a pop, Jeff Burnette's spectacular blown-glass Raygunz must remain mere objects of desire, as opposed to stylishly collecting dust chez moi. But my God do I want one.

Yes, indeed. Very stylish. A fashion must-have. But I picture you with a sword as well. On a horse even. Prepared for any eventuality, any flavor alien that might invade.

Also, is Mssr. Burnette actually in Seattle, Washington, Murrica?

(Hey. My w verification word below is 'spzbojhs.' Might be my new nickname, if I can figure out how to pronounce it.)

And welcome back.

Huh, turns out Burnette's in BC. We must rely on a friendly alien to deal with the nasty ones. The hotel gallery/store had not just two Raygunz but also a full rifle-size monstrosity, all coiling silver tubes and Skittle-colored bulbs, for dealing with the more recalcitrant ETs. Weighed about 30 pounds. I didn't even ask the price.

Back for three days and then off again. The allure of biz travel wears off quickly.

Having one of those gunz in your house makes me think that one day a rag tag band of noble criminals might try to steal it to finance engine parts and personal profit.

The rayguns are awesome.
