Happy New Years you surly bastards

2019 is going to kick ass. The absolutely perfect piece of land just went on the market right across the road from my son's godparents in a little town just northwest of Chapel Hill, and we'll start work on our tiny house (foundation, not one of those death traps on wheels) in just a couple of months. Gonna put in fruit orchards and about an acre of berry brambles in addition to all the livestock and poultry.

It will be much more comfortable to be a hippie in the Research Triangle area than in this shithole I woke up in this morning. Hell, I may even feel friendly towards ol' Butterteeth again. Maybe.

Dude, I'm just south of Tyler. Hit me up sometime for some fishing, or a beer....or both.

Pretty sure east Texas isn’t the research triangle that he’s talking about. Only one they know is the one you ring when you yell come and get it!!!

Lol fuck. I glossed over his post just saw Chapel Hill and thought about the little Tyler suburb near me. Definitely no ground breaking research going on around here....not the kind he's referring to anyway.

Yeah I thought he was talking about outside of Brenham.  

Ditto.  I kept wondering how a town could be smaller then Chapel Hill, Texas. 

And then recalled that it is actually Chappppellll Hillll, Texas.  I guess their typewriter telegraph was touchy way back when it was founded by the Haydens (that's a too many clicks reference.)

So we can just kind of skip 2020-2024.  Happy New Year.

 I just gotta say there’s a fuckload of people in Austin lighting up some big fireworks hours ahead of midnight.

Yeah my dipshit neighbor spends a couple grand on em every NYE and July 4th, then leaves the huge fireworks mess in the cul de sac and our yards. I sweater god he's laundering money for the cartels. Sounds like Gaza outside my house right now. All the animals are hiding out.

Fireworks suck, dogs do the hiding thing. But it is the assholes shooting off that really piss me off. Yo dickfuck, do ya really need to fire off your .40 to celebrate.

My buddy out by COTA just texted me like he does every year, with a video where you can hear nothing but AKs all around. That's how they roll out in SE Travis County.

Yep, fireworks or gunfire... we live next to a ridge that stretches for miles NE and SW, so we get to hear a variety. Ishkooda Gap or Gate City? Possibly a brave citizen defending against aggressive toddlers in strollers. Homewood? Occasional bottle rocket. Mountain Brook? Something big, excessive, and overpriced, like batteries of Roman candles, or flipping out and getting a divorce.

I told Mrs. Canecutter, as we listened, that I detected a P-40 banking to make a strafing run.

I popped off a few rounds from my Beretta A300 after midnight. No fireworks so I had to use what was available.

Nearest neighbor's house is over 100 yards away and I shot in the opposite direction. I regularly shoot clay on my place, it's not like I live in the suburbs.

Still, I wouldn't shoot a pistol or rifle despite all the space out here.

In Kirkenes (northern Norway) it was fireworks, no guns, unless the Russians down the way a bit decided to fire into the air - which they'd miss.

Otherwise, no different here than a typical small town 4th of July, except for a fuckton of snow on the ground. The entire thing was people setting off their own fireworks, including "downtown", some quite impressive. Being Norway, nothing was actually open, so by 12.15am it was back inside.

Happy New Year, ya Surly bastids. May 2025 beat all odds and be a great year for us all. Except that guy. You know who you are.

You know how sometimes you can hear a song, and remember where you were when you first heard it? Now I'm back in our little starter 1960s home, back bathroom, too young to wank but plenty old enough to clamber up and nab Dad's Playboys from the top shelf.
