  1. I see it a lot like that lady in the wicker basket dodging all of the swords that the dude in the Ali Baba outfit starts poking at her.
  2. My mom had Alzheimers for more than 10 years before she passed. For the majority of those years she was unable to communicate with us in any way. After she passed, I was going through her stuff and found a Big Chief tablet that she had used daily for the first few months of her affliction. This was before any of us knew that she was struggling. She would print the date and then she would sign her name 10 times. Each page was worse and worse and then she just stopped. That was a gut punch. She knew she was fucked and never told any of us that she needed help.
  3. I'm on a golf trip to the Lake of the Ozarks region. They have had a lot of rain over the last week so all of the courses have been cart path only. Fuuuuck. 36 holes yesterday has left me as stiff as a wedding dick this morning. I have until 10:30 to recover for 18 more today. That's a lot of walking for an old guy.
  4. That is fucking awesome. I would have never guessed it would make it from one season to the next.
  5. nope. 1970, bro.
  6. I wish. I was so poor I had to wear Saddle Kings shit from Sutherlands.
  7. Were you at MooreSpeed Sunday? Porsche vs Ferrari get together. Lots of nice rides to look at. I had a visible V-8 model when I was a kid. Gave me a lot more understanding of the inner workings of an ICE. That looks like a good one.
  8. That's pretty stout for a kid that doesn't weigh more than #50. Well done. Strong clamp game too.
  9. Just your everyday Chernobyl swine.
  10. That might work too, but that hand clutch makes it real handy to just ease forward a bit. Nothing worse than pulling a calf that has been dead for a bit. I had to burn a fairly new denim jacket because no amount of washing could get rid of the stink after one of those.
  11. An old Vet told me that the WD Allis with a hand clutch was the greatest calf puller ever invented. I think he was kidding.
  12. I'm surprised that this didn't get any run here.
  13. I need to see it with the lid removed. If it is just a ring around the perimeter with an empty middle, I'd eat it but would be disappoint. If it spirals all the way to the center, I would ask for seconds.
  14. Curacao Arizona is my biatch. Kodiak Kansas. Big, hairy, flatchested.
  15. @deadshank and @ROFL BOX know their way around sheet metal. Keep your $200 in Surly circulation.
  16. Last nights supper. Leftover corn , mashed taters and gravy. Not shown was the dab of green bean casserole in yet another cold cut container.
  17. Waste trainers are more like Depends.
  18. God dammit, I'm doomed. I thought of a couple of things, they were mentioned early in the thread. The list kept getting longer as the thread got longer and I realized that the only thing mentioned that I wouldn't binge was a soft drink. Hate that shit. I even like the Cope. I'll likely infarct any minute now.
  19. That made me chuckle. Thanks. I don't think you really want to go there.
  20. I'd vote yes. My cold cut containers have melty stretch marks from microwaving whatever is inside. I don't use much Tupperware.
  21. I'm not sure which "Fuck Cancer" thread is correct but this one came up first using search. A good friend's wife called me today to tell me that George had passed yesterday. He had been undergoing chemo for a cancer that was somewhere in his abdomen, they never told any of use what the precise type was. I guess it really doesn't matter, it took him and I'm struggling with it now. I first met him when he was hired to do some programming for some industrial equipment we built. He had an EE degree from Wichita State so he and I bonded quickly. We spent a lot of time on the road doing installs and we got to know each others families. We met up at WSU basketball games and had beers together afterwards. Just a great guy. I was pretty composed until his wife told me that I should give her a call if I need to talk to someone. Fuck cancer, indeed.
  22. As of today, I don't have to birdie a single fucking hole to shoot my age. Getting old still sucks.
  23. Circus peanuts, Dude. Circus peanuts
