The Original Old Farts Club

[Bubba]

(*snork*) If I deploy a few hundred around my hill to die on, Brother Bubba, I do believe the threat of prison is somewhere below my concern for where I put my mustache wax.

One guy down means two guys get him out. That's three down for the cost of an inch of PVC and a .45 round.

And every swinging dork in a hundred yard radius is suddenly frozen in place.


Now yer talkin'. If you can get aholt of a 155 round, the same thing works on tanks.

I had not thought of several, all freezing in position. Time to switch on the illuminated retical. Rather than bolt action nail driver, the accurized AR15 designated marksman rifle, or Special Purpose Rifle with scope would make picking off the "frozen" with ease, causing them to run, setting off more of your improvised devices! Me likey!

36 degrees here and rain. Lots of rain. The Old Hen was five miles away and called me saying it was rain, sleet, and snow with hail to boot. I could hear it hitting her car as she spoke. All I'm getting here is rain.
If I'd put the plow on the Jeep, it would be snowing like a mofo. Wish I could find a place to live where it snowed on Christmas eve and was gone by January 1st. Not too much to ask, right?

Its called Christmas weed

Well folks... now we have another example of why it is wonderful to be married to a Good Witch.

I have mentioned in the past how the IRS pissed her off, the final result being a letter of apology from the IRS. <--TINS

But just now, she has put down the phone and told me our insurance company is sending us a check for $1,071.43. Yup. They had been sending us notices that my life insurance payment was overdue, and my policy would be void after Nov 22. (my birthday)

Not only is the payment NOT overdue, the insurance company admitted to fukking up and we are all up to date with payments... but they owe us instead. Over a thousand bucks.

It's good, being married to a witch!

my Swede was a legal secretary

she frequently reads me the riot act amongst other legalese

I tried to take the 5th and plead for my Habeas Corpus rights but she told me the statue of limitations has run out

she is more the prosecutorial type and I am the bootlegger

WOW!! I wuz just wandering about the grounds with a Volcano bag of @boo's finest, and I looked east and saw an amazing sight. Looks almost like a very bright cartoon face:

The Cheshire Cat Smile moon... and right beside it like a bright eye, Venus. <-- Like that, but with the open eye on the right.

What a crowd!
What a crowd!

I can’t get no respect!

My wife wants *** in the back of the car and she wants me to drive. ~

46 degrees here and a mild wind. The ground is so soaked it's like walking on a featherbed. No tractor work today. It would look like Rommel had a tank battle any place I drove.
Gotta do something, so I guess I'll work on the plow Jeep. The flow direction for the heat is stuck, so the only way you can take it off defrost is to pull the glove compartment out and twist the switch while you move the actual directional vent. It's supposed to be a cable, so I'll be pulling part of the dash off. I hope that's the problem. I spent all last winter with the defroster on and almost melted my face off 'til I put the window down a bit.
I'd wimp out and take it to the dealer and let them fix it, but I know I'd be leaving two or three hundred bucks behind. It's a $20 part and probably a half hour to fix, and my time just ain't worth a couple of hundred bucks an hour.

if things look bad here , we will fallback somewhere along the Purgatory River or I know some caves up in the Rockies to bug out to

I read a bunch about the Purgatory River (AKA: Picketwire) in a Flashman novel. The Injuns massacreed a bunch of Spanish explorers there. The whole area is fulla monster lizard fossils.

that and a bunch of other stuff

there is an old Spanish homestead there , 1700’s , still has a few walls , cistern , and some gravestones

the dinosaur tracks , Cortex was there , there was some lost gold there but I believe most of it has been recovered
