Toting an arse whipping from dirty laundry and a steep flight of stairs to the basement.
Severe ankle sprain, possible hairline crack

Knee is messed up, got to go see an orthopedic next week

This does not bode well for your upcoming elk hunt.....  @DuckDogDr

@Sea2Ski.. I'm kinda hoping it does ....reasoning. I go ahead and get my annual trip to the ER out of the way now vs when I'm out in the boonies

FYI...morphine isn't worth a skit. According to those around me it does make me mean as a rattlesnake

Good book but one that triggers many. Surprised to see it all on the web in that format (and apparently the publisher is none too happy about that).

So no third times the charm trip? That sucks.

Sorry about the fall, hope you are still able to make the elk trip!

'Captain Kirk - can you tell me what ‘love' means?  Who shot JR?  Where does your lap go when you stand up?

Three of life’s greatest mysteries, but they have been surmounted by the enigma wrapped paradox that is the UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying tournament.   If you genuinely have literally absolutely nothing else to do at all, then follow this link for a description that in no way way simplifies things; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_Euro_2020_qualifying

In summation; no PL this weekend but a series of internationals somehow liked to what we formerly called the Euros.    Last year witnessed the arrival for the Nations League - which is significantly different to both the League of Nations, and more crucially, the League of Gentlemen.  In the case of the latter, I wholeheartedly advise you to follow this link with caution and I can be held in no way accountable for its effect upon you :  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOtpgz4L5d8   Don’t watch any linked videos after consuming strong cheese,  way out of date medicines or any home-made beverage that has been through fermentation. 

What will happen? 

1. players valuable to their club will experience sudden onset of ‘slight knock’ and be pulled from their respective national squads
2. the media will thrash relentlessly upon a recently deceased member of the equine community to engender a modicum of interest amongst the public.
3. the betting companies will do the same but with far greater effect.
4. England will cap many new young vibrant talents who will dazzle against the football Goliaths of Montenegro
5. England will, at some point in the future, falter and exit the tournament at semi-final stage (assuming they achieve a narrow win against San Marino in the previous round).  Their route forward is so unfeasibly easy that it will talk an especially committed ‘typical Eng-errrr-land’ effort to screw this up. 

Can’t even trust the cluster-F that is BREXIT to save us from it all, either.   Bloody BREXIT - whatever the aphorism is for taking a totally crap idea and making it an apocalyptic car crash for everyone while a bunch of narcissistic half-wits point fingers at each other (OK, bit niche), please insert it here. 

**** STOP PRESS; @Eoin 's Stoke have climbed a place in the table without even playing.....  A good weekend's work complete already, for them ****

I would not recommend using hand sanitizer as a lubricant.

Awesome place.
If you are going to post spring break beach pics that does not have bikinis in it, that is the kind I would like to see. 

Are you heading up to Butt Blast? I mean, you are pretty much the perfect candidate attendant....

I realize this but our current plans would have us somewhere else... ill see what I can do!

Just finished putting the second coat of wax on the car.

Looks great....what wax did you use and was it hard to remove?

I stopped by my shop in Gretna on the way home yesterday to pick up a small roll of rabbit fencing for my buddy Zack's puppy (block a spot he can get out in back yard).  

I thought, damn, my car is filthy.  Car wash 100 yards away.  Pull into a stall and there's a buck twentyfive in quarters the last person left.   I can wash my car with 2 bucks at this wash so it only cost me $0.75 and 10 minutes of time.

I'm asking about the wax because I really need to wax my car, I got the whole front/rear sections and the top repainted because of sun damage and I compounded enough top coat off through the years it looked terrible.  Looks great now, no dings, but I need to wax soon to keep it looking great.

I polished the swirls out with meguiars ultimate polish on a white lake country flat foam pad with a da polisher. Wax is collinite 915. It can be extremely hard to remove unless you apply it very very very thin. Very thin. I had no issues, wiped off easily. 

It's a very long lasting wax with tons of carnauba and synthetics in it. About 40 bucks a can, I think a can will last me forever waxing twice a year

The wife used to use collinite on her BMWs.  She switched over to Nu Finish because it took a lot of elbow grease to remove.   Might have some of that collinite left, need to look.

When I was in the biz, we sold Presta products as we were bodyshop heavy. There's a local dealer that carries it near you. Their "Best Wax" and "Fast Wax" are amazing products.

Great news for Stoke, a few more decisions like that from the EFL and we'll be in the playoffs. Still doesn't make up for the National embarrasment that is Brexit. When the only 2 people outside the UK who think it's a good idea are Donald and Donald Jr, you know you're in trouble.

For the money, it’s hard to beat NuFinish. Simply a great product at a reasonable price. With that said, I’m well aware that most folks here are vulgar rich and don’t give price a second thought. However for the few of us on a limited income, NuFinish is certainly a great product and is affordable to boot.

If I had half of the money you’ve spent on man  sized onsies and shaving cream, I’d be in a new 21ft Phoenix bass boat right now.

Brother Double, if you had my money you would not be living in that tri-level mansion on the lake. You certainly would not be cruising around in that personal  yacht and helicopter. You would be living in a trailer park my friend. Don’t wish for my money. You would be downgrading by a factor of a million or so.

I treated myself again today to a little grub. I have been following my diet pretty loyal for the last 15 months. With that said, it’s good to reward yourself every now and then. Especially after being offshore. 
Grilled and fried shrimp platter. 

Ribeye, cheese and crawfish fries. 


A pound of fried crab claws. 

And for good measure I had 5 rum punches. 

Even though I cheat once a week, the chest is still far bigger than the belly. That’s something I haven’t been able to say in many years. 33” waist & 44” chest.
