We here at NRA Family recently got a memo that it seems we missed: Apparently, if you have a website, you have to do at least one year-end roundup or people just won't take you seriously. With only two days left in 2016, we've had to scramble a bit to ensure we've fulfilled this crucial requirement. To make things easier on ourselves and save time, we've rounded up some of the articles we published on Fridays. As you can see, these are all designed to make sure that we're taken very seriously. It's the last Friday of the year, so put on your best serious face and grab a serious cup of coffee...it's time to get very serious.


1. Beaarrrr! BEAAARRRR! STOP IT, BEAR!
Any close encounter with a bear is an encounter of the "eek!" kind. In this article, we featured five such close encounters, in order from the least to the most horrifying. (Number five is not for the faint of heart!)


2. Becoming One With Your Inner Gun.
One Friday, we published a profound meditation designed to help guide you to your inner rifle. Take a deep breath, center yourself, and click here.


3. Forwards From Grandpa 
Every e-mail inbox is a quandary. Is that forwarded e-mail you got fact, or is it fiction? Ponder the quandary by clicking here.


4. Four Critters, Zero Fear. 
You say, "What about the honey badger?" We say, "We can't hear you over how awesome these other animals are." 


5. The War of the Rodents
“Sir, the beavers have total control of the area.”
  A reminiscence in which the U.S. Army gets owned.


6. They Really Are a Scream 
They're creepy and they're kooky, mysterious and spooky, they're altogether ooky, the Chiroptera family! Da-da-da-dum.


7. Back To the Pliocene
You've got your flux capacitor, you've got your 1.21 gigawatts, you've got your down vest...now what kind of rifle will you bring?
