65 Years of "Gorgo"

Back in 1961, my parents and myself along with my aunt and cousins went to a theater at Western Avenue and Imperial Highway in Los Angeles to see a double feature.

The double feature was the Annette Funicello/Frankie Avalon version of Babes In Toyland and Gorgo. That was an interesting double feature. 

On Gorgo, Wikipedia posted:

Gorgo is a 1961 British monster film directed by Eugène Lourié and featuring special effects by Tom Howard, and starring Bill Travers, William Sylvester and Vincent Winter. In the film, after an undersea volcano sends tremors throughout the Atlantic, a prehistoric creature is released from under the sea. The crew of a salvage vessel capture the giant amphibious creature and take it to London for public exhibition. It results in the creature's much larger mother invading London in search of her offspring, causing catastrophic destruction across the city in the process.

Gorgo was produced by the King Brothers and British Lion Films, and was distributed in the United Kingdom by British Lion-Columbia on October 27, 1961.

Eric Sheil posted this at the Kaiju Prediction Network on Facebook:

 

We saw the double feature at the Rio Theater, which closed for good in 1971 due to gang activity in the area made business difficult. 

Gorgo still holds up well even today. The monsters were done in the Japanese style of "suitmation". 

It is hard to believe that it was 65 years ago.

Bloomberg Up To His Old Gun Control Tricks

Former New York Mayor and billionaire Michael Bloomberg is up to his old tricks. 

With the 2026 Election Day only days away, he has accelerated his spending to promote his gun control agenda of taking away our Second Amendment rights. Same old shit.

Protecting our Second Amendment gun rights is why it is crucial that Deb Haaland in New Mexico and Xavier Becerra are defeated November 3. Those two Democrats are idiots.

The NRA-ILA posted an article on Bloomberg.

They begin it with:

Another election, same former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg working to shape the nation’s gun laws. For years, NRA has exposed Bloomberg’s relentless efforts to export New York style gun restrictions to the rest of America. With sights firmly set on Washington, D.C., Bloomberg knows that any shift in congressional control could provide an opening to try and unravel years of hard-fought Second Amendment victories and once again push sweeping gun restrictions nationwide.

A recent report from the New York Times puts the billionaire’s spending in the spotlight noting that during the current cycle he has, so far, directed a whopping $80 million dollars toward Democrat candidates and political organizations. The Times reports that at least $50 million of his spending is earmarked for U.S. House of Representative races, including $24 million going directly to the political efforts of Everytown for Gun Safety, Bloomberg's dedicated gun control organization, while another $16 million was given to the House Majority PAC, which supports Democrat congressional candidates.

Get out and vote to protect your Second Amendment rights November 3!

Five RV Trips You Must Do Before You Get Too Old

Above, yours truly at the Yellowstone River in 2015.

Now that I am still in my "youthful" 70s, whenever I can, I like to go RVing in my 2015 Winnebago Minnie Winnie. 

There are some RV trips seniors should do before they get too old and unable to to do so. 

RV Travel has five suggestions. Three of them, the Florida Keys and Alaska, were taken by me while on cruises, not in an RV. I did do trips to Yellowstone/Grand Teton National Parks in my RV.

They begin their article with:

For Sean of Long Long Honeymoon, “too old” begins when a trip’s hassle outweighs its fun. Some people reach that point early; others keep adventuring into their 80s and 90s. In the video at the end of this post, Sean shares his five RV trips that will reward travelers who still have the energy and enthusiasm for ambitious journeys.

Brrr! I woke up this morning to a cold house.

Currently, it is 32 degrees outside. For those who are clueless, the that is the temperature for freezing. 

It is a good thing that I checked the weather yesterday and flipped on the motorhome's holding tank heaters after plugging the RV in to house current. 

I also have the house heating system on along with a space heater in my bedroom. I am nice and comfortable now. Snow will be coming before we know it!

John Wayne's 26 Bar Ranch Tour Video

In 2023, while heading to Tombstone, Arizona for a Lost Dutchman Chapter of E Clampus Vitus clampout, I made a stop at the 26 Bar Ranch in Eagar, Arizona to take a few pictures.

The 26 Bar Ranch was John Wayne's Hereford cattle ranch that he partnered with Louis Johnson. 

Above, a view of some of the ranch buildings. Photo by Armand Vaquer.

The video below is a "Tour of the 26 Bar Ranch" posted 15 years ago by William Brooks. The ranch looks pretty much the same today.

That was a great trip. Besides seeing John Wayne's ranch, I enjoyed the clampout in Tombstone and wrapped up the trip with a visit to Old Tucson Studios.

The Best-Selling Hunting Rifle In History

WINCHESTER 1894: THE BEST-SELLING HUNTING RIFLE IN HISTORY video from Logan1851.

Summary:

Welcome to the channel! Today we're taking a true legend out of my personal gun cabinet. We're going to take an in-depth look at my Winchester Model 1894 carbine chambered in the iconic and ever-reliable .30-30 caliber.

With over seven million units manufactured, this rifle isn't just a piece of history; it's an engineering marvel designed by the genius John Moses Browning. In this video, I explain why the 1894 marked a turning point in firearm technology. We'll analyze its robust steel breechblock, specifically designed to withstand the extremely high pressures of the newly invented smokeless powder, leaving the era of black powder behind forever.

Taking my own carbine to the shooting range, we'll evaluate its ballistics, quick shouldering, and incredible reliability. Whether using it on my hunting trips, competing in Olympic shooting events, or simply enjoying the precision of its mechanisms, this rifle demonstrates why the .30-30 WCF has taken down more game in North America than any other cartridge in history.

We'll also discuss its entry into popular culture and how this lever-action technological evolution is represented in the tactical video games we regularly review at The Saloon Gamer.

And you, if you had to choose a single lever-action rifle for hunting or the shooting range, would you go for the nostalgia of the 1873 or the modern power of the 1894 in .30-30? Let me know in the comments!

Classic Rock Music Monday

The stuff that now passes as "music", particularly rock 'n roll, leaves me cold. So, to start off the week, here's a video of a classic rock artist.

To start off the week and finish off the month of October, we have Ricky Nelson with his 1972 hit, "Garden Party." Here, he performs with the Stone Canyon Band.

From Wikipedia:

Eric Hilliard "Ricky" or "Rick" Nelson (May 8, 1940 – December 31, 1985) was an American musician and actor. From age eight, he starred alongside his family in the radio and television series The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet. In 1957, he began a long and successful career as a popular recording artist.

His fame as both a recording artist and television star also led to a motion picture role co-starring alongside John Wayne, Dean Martin, Walter Brennan, and Angie Dickinson in Howard Hawks's western feature film Rio Bravo (1959). He placed 54 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 and its predecessors between 1957 and 1973, including "Poor Little Fool" in 1958, which was the first number one song on Billboard magazine's then-newly created Hot 100 chart. He recorded 17 additional top ten hits and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on January 21, 1987. In 1996, Nelson was ranked No. 49 on TV Guide's 50 Greatest TV Stars of All Time.

Experts: 2 Best National Parks For First-Time Visitors

Many people have visited our national parks at one time or another. 

Some have preferences as to what park(s) are their favorite or what they consider the best. For those who haven't yet visited a national park, they're in luck.

Travel + Leisure posted an article on the two best national parks for first-time visitors.  

They begin it with:

When it comes to choosing the “best” national park, Chris Zielinski, operations director for Wildland Trekking and a longtime trail leader, likens it to choosing a favorite trail. “There are countless great options, and the right fit depends on when someone is traveling and how they like to explore,” he says.

But when we pressed travel experts and industry insiders further, two parks came to the top for national park newbies: Grand Canyon National Park and Yellowstone National Park. Diane Eichler, senior vice president of marketing at Kampgrounds of America, agrees that both parks are fantastic choices for first-timers. “You can step out of your car and immediately be surrounded by views people dream about for years,“ she says. “But what really makes these parks special is slowing down and actually spending time in them.“

Here’s why these iconic destinations make the best introduction to the United States. national park system.

Flooding In New Mexico and Colorado

It is times like these that I am glad that I live on a hill. 

Severe flooding has hit the flatlands of Southwest Colorado (Durango was hit pretty hard from the Animas River and Pagosa Springs was also hit by the San Juan River) and Northeast New Mexico. We didn't get too much rain yesterday. The storm basically skirted around us and hit on the other side of the Continental Divide.

Japan Looks Into Evacuating If Mount Fuji Erupts

Above, a Shinkansen view of Mount Fuji. Photo by Armand Vaquer.

Mount Fuji has been a major symbol of Japan. 

It has been a mecca for mountain climbing, tourism, photography and art. I have been to one of the Fifth Stations on the mountain (with G-Tour in 2004) and have photographed it from a Shinkansen. 

With all that being said, it is easy to forget that Mount Fuji is still an active volcano. Local municipalities are weighing on how to evacuate the areas surrounding it should it erupt.

The Japan Times reported:

Mount Fuji attracts thousands of foreign tourists each year, but many forget that Japan’s highest peak is an active volcano. With the risk of an eruption ever-present, a critical question looms: how could such visitors be evacuated safely in the event of a disaster?

On Thursday, around 150 participants from local governments, national ministries, transportation companies, airlines and foreign embassies convened in the gateway town of Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi Prefecture, to examine this very question.

Winchester Model 94 Restoration: How Deep Is That Rust?

Winchester Model 94 Restoration: How Deep Is That Rust? (1966 30-30) video from RGS Restorations Inc. 

Summary:

Rust and pitting everywhere on this water damaged 1966 Winchester Model 94. The question was how deep it really went.

Get a free restoration quote: https://www.rgsrestorations.com/conta...

This rifle came to us with a very specific concern from the owner; they did not want it to lose its character from when the original family member customized it to what they wanted. After working through the details of their wishes for this restoration we decided it was entirely possible to make the Winchester look perfect again and retain its altered charm.

This job required a lot of metal removal which brings the challenge of keeping all the lines crisp and sharp. Also, this era Winchester 94 is of the sintered metal production years. You’ll see how I correct all of that rust and pitting, and then apply the appropriate finish to the metal. I’ll also show how I get those post-‘64 Winchester Model 94 receivers to take a black finish.

Only 3 Lever-Action Calibers You Need to Hunt Every Animal in North America

Summary:

One of the hottest factory .30-30 loads clears the 2,000 foot-pound line by 46 foot-pounds — at the muzzle. So the most famous lever-action cartridge in America gets cut from a lever-gun list. Then it comes back.

Three lever-action cartridges, from a one-pound squirrel to a two-thousand-pound bison. Every candidate has to pass five gates: legal where people actually hunt (including Ohio’s straight-wall deer rule as updated in July 2026 and Michigan’s 2026 change), the 2,000-foot-pound line at the distance of the shot using the makers’ own published figures, recoil a normal hunter can practice with (2026 Backfire recoil table), ammunition you can actually find in deer season, and a fifth gate only lever guns ever face: the tube magazine.

Inside: why the tube magazine, not the lever, gave these rifles their short-range reputation; the lever gun behind the first American cartridge to reach 3,000 fps; why Winchester sold the .30-06 in a lever gun seventeen years before its Model 54 bolt rifle; the 293,816 lever-action rifles Russia took in World War I; Annie Oakley’s one-hole group with a lever-action .22; why the .360 Buckhammer’s case is exactly 1.8 inches long; and why a standard box of .45-70 makes less muzzle energy than a .30-30.

Every pick gets an honest problem, not just praise. And the twist at the end: the lever gun worth keeping for a lifetime is the one that failed the gates.

Yesterday's Storm and The Weekend

The McKinley County Office of Emergency Management posted this yesterday afternoon:

It was a good thing that Larry Lucier and I got back to Jamestown when we did from Gallup.

We had a little bit of rain while we were at Grandpa's Grill having breakfast with friends of Larry's. We got back to Jamestown at around 1:30.

Later that afternoon, a storm rolled in and we got a big light show of lightning. It lasted a few hours and pummeled the area with rain. There was a tornado watch in effect. We both thought that we may have a snowy winter this year if the precipitation continues like it has over the next few months. 

It is going to be relatively dry today, but we may be getting more rain this weekend starting tomorrow. 

According to the National Weather Service for Jamestown/Gallup:

 Today

Mostly sunny, with a high near 62. South wind 5 to 10 mph becoming southwest 10 to 15 mph in the afternoon.

Tonight

Mostly clear, with a low around 42. Light and variable wind becoming southeast 5 to 10 mph after midnight.

Saturday

Scattered showers, with thunderstorms also possible after noon. Partly sunny, with a high near 60. Southeast wind 10 to 15 mph. Chance of precipitation is 40%.

Saturday Night

Isolated showers. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 38. South wind 5 to 10 mph becoming light after midnight. Chance of precipitation is 20%.

Sunday

Mostly sunny, with a high near 55. Light and variable wind becoming southwest 5 to 10 mph in the morning.

Mia Asano and Deadgrace Videos

The following three videos I shot at the Mia Asano concert at Backstage At Revel in Albuquerque on October 20. I shot these from my table from the back of the room. 

The first one is of the group Deadgrace, who opened the show:

Mia Asano Autograph Framed

Following lunch at Grandpa's Grill yesterday in Gallup, I picked up a 4" x 6" picture frame for the autographed photo of Mia Asano that was part of my "goodie bag" for V.I.P. attendees at her concert in Albuquerque.

It is now on my den's wall with other celebrity autographs in my collection. It is just below one from Caroline Munro.

Albuquerque Sushi

Above, yesterday's lunch/dinner. Photo by Armand Vaquer.

Before heading to the Mia Asano concert, I arrived in Albuquerque right at noon, also known as lunchtime.

I was craving sushi so I went to try out one off Coors Blvd. called Sakura.

Above, ah, Japanese beer. 

When I got there, I had a bottle of Sapporo beer (I haven't had Japanese beer since I moved out of California). It was good. I still do prefer Asahi Beer, by the way.

I had tuna, yellowtail and salmon cut rolls. They really hit the spot! They were quite good. 

After the meal, I headed nearby to Albuquerque Guns to browse around. I did buy some Winchester .30-30 cal. 150 grain ammo while there. Then, I headed over to Bass Pro Shops (formerly Cabela's) and did some more browsing. I did get a free Bass Pro cap and gear bag for signing up with their Visa card while there. I didn't stay long as the pre-concert Meet & Greet would be starting in a hour and a half. I had find the venue first. 

I did see a nice Winchester 9422 (the .22 cal. Winchester 94) rifle on the used rifle rack at Bass Pro. It was priced over $900. Nice though it was, it wasn't over $900 nice.

Mia Asano Concert

Above, yours truly with Mia Asano during the meet & greet.

Last night, I attended the concert in Albuquerque of Mia Asano at Backstage At Revel. 

It was an enjoyable evening which started with a "meet & greet" with Asano. There were about 50 of us at the meet & greet. She performed three songs before she greeted and posed for photos with the attendees. This was before the concert, which was attended by around 300 people. Attendees for the V.I.P./Meet & Greet were given a bag of Mia Asano promo goods, including a 3" x 5" autographed tour schedule/photo.

Here's three photos of Mia Asano I took during her meet & greet set:

For the concert, I shared my table with a nice couple from Bernalillo, New Mexico. They discovered Asano through Facebook as I did. 

The show began with a set by Deadgrace. The lead singer was also quite talented with a saxophone. 

Above, autographed tour schedule from the V.I.P./Meet & Greet bag.

After Deadgrace, Asano came out and performed for about an hour and a half (it could have been two hours, I lost track). Much of her song set focused on mythological subjects including dragons. The lead guitarist of her group is also her spouse. They were married earlier this year. 

Above, reproductions of classic rock posters adorned the room. Photo by Armand Vaquer.

I got better photos of her during the three-song set she performed as I was right up at the stage and with better lighting. During the concert, I sat at a table in the bar area which was further back. 

The crowd enjoyed her performance, although there were a couple of rowdies yelling at times. 

Above, yours truly having a highball before the concert started.

The venue itself is a nice place with a big central bar in the lobby and some eateries. The room we were in also had a bar. 

Some photos of the concert:

I was not disappointed in the concert or the event in total. If anything, Mia Asano can be called the "Jimi Hendrix of electric violins", she's that good! If she should return to Albuquerque for another concert, I'd go again.

After the concert, I headed to the Route 66 Hotel RV Park for some shut-eye. 

Backstage At Revel In Albuquerque

This evening, I'll be attending Mia Asano's concert in Albuquerque at Backstage At Revel.

I have never heard of this venue (or been there) until I bought a ticket to the show. It does look like a nice venue for concerts in an intimate setting. The seating capacity is 500.

Here's a photo from their website:

Which Airlines Have Oldest and Newest Fleets

Air Force One has garnered some interesting publicity in recent years. The Boeing 747s that presidents have used since 1990 are over 35 years old. A new fleet is currently under construction while President Trump has been using a Boeing 747 that was gifted by Qatar. It is a Boeing 747-8 (designated as the VC-25B Bridge), which entered service on July 1, 2026. This is serving as a temporary Air Force One until the new ones are ready, therefore it is why it is called a "bridge". The President of the United States isn't the only one who had been flying on old jets.

An interesting email came through from PR Newswire this morning. 

It is on which airlines has the oldest and newest planes in their fleets. I have never given much thought to this when boarding a jet. Maybe it is something we should all think about perhaps?

The email came with this:

They wrote:

Average age tells only part of the story. The share of an airline's fleet that is at least 25 years old offers another way to compare how many veteran aircraft each airline operates.

United has the largest share of planes at least 25 years old, followed by Delta and American. United and Delta are the only airlines in the study with planes aged 30 or older, representing 4.9% and 3.6% of their fleets, respectively. Southwest has no planes aged 25 or older among its 798 aircraft. Nearly one-quarter of Frontier's fleet is less than two years old.

• United Airlines: 30.7% (share of fleet 25+ years old)
• Delta Air Lines: 27.6%
• American Airlines: 24.3%
• Hawaiian Airlines: 15.3%
• JetBlue: 5.7%
• Allegiant Air: 4.8%
