1. These weapons related posts seems out of place with all your other posts. I don’t get it. Am I missing something?

2. No, you’re not missing anything. It does perhaps seem a little anomalous, but I do find weaponry fascinating. That may be due to the time and place I grew up: small-town Oklahoma in the 40′s and 50′s. I went squirrel hunting on my uncle’s farm with my father’s .22, for example.

   The H&K G11, with its caseless ammo, seems like a very good infantry weapon. I’m disappointed that it’s never been widely adopted. (This particular interest might be a part of my Quixotic interest in rational systems: the Shaw alphabet, the Dvorak keyboard, Esperanto, Go, and the like.)

3. I do occasionally think it might be nice for your readers if you ran several more focused: shaving, politics, food, & misc. It’s certainly easier for me that they’re all in one blog since I’m really reading as someone who is related to you. But if I read mainly because I was interested in, say, shaving, I’d probably eventually stop reading because the blog didn’t really focus on my interest.

4. A few have mentioned this. I do tell people (e.g., in my shaving reference post) that they can use this site by category: e.g., use “Category search” to list only posts in a given category, or subscribe using something like “http://leisureguy.wordpress.com/category/shaving/feed/” (without quotation marks) to get only shaving posts.

   I realize I cut down on my readership somewhat by mixing in everything I’m interested in, but since I really don’t depend on readership (i.e., click counts) for anything, I can be more idiosyncratic.

   Still, it’s worth thinking about, and I can of course create new blogs at will using WordPress.com. So I’m thinking…
