@alaskanassasin you have a gleaner for combine?

 Yep, shes a old gleaner. I get some custom combine work during wheat because I can take the chopper off and shoot out nice pretty long straw.

SGH

Enjoying all you can eat catfish.

Implementing a company wide customer wide price increase. First time in a decade. Can’t keep absorbing the rising cost of goods….expecting angry phone calls

That sounds fair.  From the perspective of annual inflation and consumer price index, you should be making about 5% less over a decade, fix it.

PS - get ready for another potential flood event this weekend, I'm sorry to say.

@SGH - do you have any money shots of that fish, or maybe some more photos from another perspective?

Models have that storm wetting you more than me. Unfortunately, I hope they’re correct. (They never are)

SWMBO has been in the Lake Charles area  (and driving all around it) for the last 4 days for her workand she said the flood damage from the recent hurricanes and freak rain events is terrible.

I'm pretty sure he used the same pics last week - saying he was doing the same thing.

@WeberWho - great call.  You know your exotics.

Yeah for real! Good call. Still worth shedding a tear for it though.

TTC

Put a deposit down on the Suzuki DRZ 400S, will complete transaction and take delivery in 3-4 weeks. 

Dealer was happy to hold it, said with a Sold tag on it but still on the floor he would get orders for the next shipment he gets.

Compare the pics. Not the same. Same place (Rocky Creek Catfish House) and the same food. Different day different pics. They are only open 3 days a week. I try to go once every week. 

SGH

But for the record, if I had half of either one of y’all’s money I would be there everyday that door was open 👍

I thought about doing that.  Then I realized 1) I would have to invest some time and 2) it might undermine my opportunity to give you a hard time.  Neither of those was in my best interest.

The only thing that I can think of that might be better than that is being up there in August when it’s 100 degrees 🤪

17# SRF black grade brisket in the fridge for a defrost. Father’s Day protein planned. Siblings and parents on sides and desserts. Tropical storm be damned, we’ll be eating wagyu

I can see my pool from my roof, as well as my cabana, which has freezing cold beers in it, so 90 degree day becomes a perfect day to do a job like that.

Thought I would hit the catfish again today before the pending bad weather hits. Took this pic just for you two millionaires.

Just wrapped up a blind bourbon tasting of the below:

All were great.  I failed to nail any of the four but I definitely enjoyed the challenge.  Too bad they are/have transitioned to dang near unicorn status.
Stay healthy and safe out there.
And for all to whom this applies-
Happy Father's Day!

That’s a heck of a blind taste group

Tore into this with a neighbour last night. He’s not a hot sauce guy, but evidently has solid determination. All things considered, I was really impressed at how he handled it.
