Children’s games. This is something we might have done as kids. We have a society filled with aged children. Grown males in their 20’s, 30’s & 40’s acting like children, dressing like children, living like children. Getting a little silly once in a while is one thing. Centering one’s life around this kind of silliness shows some kind of mental deficiency or abnormality. Ridiculous.

And he still looks like the first day of school.

I’m still trying to figure out the first two images. Is the truck hidden in them somewhere? Or are those the locations the truck was headed for on the GPS?

Ah, that’s why they mentioned the High School on board. I was baffled by that until I saw your post. Thanks.

I don’t have any good looking knives. I do have a bayonet for my M1 Garand. All my knives are utilitarian and well used.

Got those tennis balls on the feet now. Huge difference! Thanks.

When I started out shooting every brand of ammo I tried was new and unheard of, for me. One can only go by the reputation of an ammunition and that reputation came from someone else testing and using the ammunition. Over time one learns through advertising, articles, blogs, word of mouth, and the experience one has accumulated over time. Years ago I would go to gun stores and buy the cheapest .45 ACP ammo I could find to shoot tactical matches. One day I bought 5-50 round plain brown boxes of ammo the clerk said was from Korea and he made a point to say “It’s non-corrosive”. It wasn’t. Luckily there was only slight damage to my barrel as I had shot the match on an unusually hot muggy evening and didn’t get around to cleaning my gun for 3 or 4 days. I had some rust in the bore. I was really ticked off and the next day I went to that store and raised hell. I learned some lessons that day. 1. Never trust gun clerks until you know you can. 2. Plain wrapped anything, in regards to guns, better have a mil spec number, otherwise steer clear. 3. Never trust foreign ammo without doing thorough research. 4. Cheap can become expensive. I also learned the hard way not to waste money on remanufactured ammunition if it’s cheap. Cheap ammo usually means cheap processes and equipment. See #4 above.

I asked about the 4 wheel versions and was told by the Doctors, Nurses, Occupational and Physical Therapists that the 4 wheel versions are not recommended because there are too unsteady if one can’t react quick enough and sometimes the brakes weren’t the most reliable way of stopping or holding the walker. My doctor said “Besides, you will only be using the walker for 2 weeks. No need for the extra cost.”

Thank you all very much. I will definitely be following my Doctor’s and Physical Therapists directions. I have to say these meds will and are making my cloudy. I am going to bow out for now. Thank you again.

Fully customized with stickers I had a new left hip installed yesterday. Just got home from the hospital. In a few short weeks I with be able to ride my Kawasaki, get into and drive my roadster, shoot from the prone position and pick up things I drop without looking like I have a bizarre medical condition. Modern medicine is fantastic!

We had line 6 at the fantail. We also had the aft Storm Line.

I recommend you kick them in the shin by making their life miserable by undermining him to his boss’ boss if you can get a chance. By the way, Thank You for doing what you do. That is a job I could not do.

I recall a Seaman asking what would happen if he refused a promotion to Boatswain’s Mate 3rd class Petty Officer. Actually he went all around the ship asking people what they thought. I recall telling him that if he didn’t take the promotion be prepared to be assigned to every Sh** job that comes up. He said “You’re like the 15th person to tell me that.” I also ran down a list of perqs that will benefit him. The biggest being that he would be giving direction to his mates handling lines rather than being one of the line handlers. This got his attention as we had just ran storm lines to the pier because we had a prediction for a tropical storm coming up the coast. Storm lines on our ship were 6” in diameter. Boatswain’s mate ran the forward line. U.S. Gunner’s Mates ran the aft line. THAT is a helluva job you’ll never forget.

Here’s another. Just in case. https://www.londonfoglife.com/product/london-fog-mens-auburn-zip-front-golf-jacket-regular-big-tall-sizescamel/?attribute_pa_size=small

Ah…okay. I looked at the picture again. Thanks.
