What a great guy Carey, NOLA , is! I miss-placed my $199.00 Ken Onion 10" chefs knife in Salado last weekend. He found it and mailed it back to me. Wow, that's honesty for ya.

    That kind of thing is to be cherished and encouraged in this day and age.

    Nice my a$$! @nolaegghead knew @Fleurdilerious might use it on him if she misplaced her lucky stabbing knife. This was a simple act of self preservation. 

    Atta boy Nola, what goes around comes around.

    Another tidbit.  As God as my witness, the first thing that the man you all know as NOLA, introduced himself by saying "I am Tweeve".  Just sayin' ... When I pulled out my Sig Sauer .380, he quickly recanted his statement.

    Too much fun at Salado-missed one hell of a function.  Bucket list for sure-and I do believe I can even get it past SWMBO.  But it will be at a premium :)  Terms to be negotiated!

    I love it, Chubbs.  Fits very nicely in front pocket.  I bought after market rosewood handle grips and they are beautiful.

    Gary, if you don't mind, send me a pic of the handle grips. Would love to see it. You have my email.

    I had a real similar thing happen to me. I found this wad of cash wrapped in a rubber band and when I found who the rightful owner I gave him back the rubber band!

    do you think a .380 is going to bring down a coke zero induced mad man?

    You're right.  When I looked in his eyes, and saw no one was at home, I knew I was in trouble.

    Funny that Nola offered me the knife for $50, did not have the cash and he would not take my check. Interesting.

    The egghead community is like a second (crazy) family.  Family takes care of each other.  I already feel like I've known hornhonk for years after a few phone conversations.  Helluva guy. 

    Been AWOL from the forum because I've been working on the lawn-TV project.  Got the TV up, fired it up and realized there's no ATSC tuner (just NTSC).  Crap.  I've got to run a line to the cable box.  March madness awaits!

    The egg is torn between Michigan State and Louisville. :D  I personally think that's uncreative.
