60+ year old thread.

The way things are packaged now you think it was nuclear waste . I can’t get anything open without a struggle anymore. Almost 62 years old .

 

Yup^^^

 

I gave up on that year's ago.

 

Thanks!

 

I haven't cut my hair since March of 2020 because of Covid... and most of the time I like it.

 

I joined the ranks of the "Follicley [sp?] Challenged" nearly 30 years ago; what hair I have remaining I started cutting myself in the late 1990s.

 

Hey, @wdb! Guess what is on the DISPATCH cover this month (CAF Magazine)? I had to take pictures of the manilla cover, because the color inside is too glossy up close.



Guess what is behind the pilot?



That "person" must be very flexible! And at most, there is an ass cushion. And the back of the metal frame pilot seat must hinge. I am amazed. One of our pilots had it out Monday on a beautiful day, and made it to the SW corner of Lockhart. I was outside, and heard "not a cessna, not a radial", but something completely different! What a sound! He did a couple loops, and a roll, and headed back to the hangar.

 

@wdb - sometimes there's not enough coffee early...

I have a wire version of the plier holder that Tom mentioned. I like it.

I didn't mention that I use the same plastic ones for smaller pliers, diags, needlenose, wire strippers, etc. I bought the wire ones just for Channel Locks and Vise grips! Perfect for those.

 

evening gang

 

I would get one but my tool chest drawers aren’t deep enough. That’s one more compelling reason to upgrade so I think I’m going to pull the trigger on a used 41” Husky I’ve been eyeing on FBM.

On another note I came across another box of photos tonight as we are decluttering the house. This time it’s family photos from the 60’s up through when my wife and I were dating and first married. There’s a picture I took of her as she was driving on the trip we took down the Skyline Drive the year before we were married and I swear I have never seen a more beautiful woman. I still don’t know what she ever saw in me but I’m glad she saw it, whatever it was.

 

Morning folks no coffee this morning, fasting for a doctor appointment this morning.

 

If I don't get my coffee in the morning someone is going to have a very bad day, lol.

 

Good morning all and Happy Friyay!

 

Morning 60+

 

Good morning. Today is something different on the smoker. I cut up 2 racks of pork ribs into individual ribs, put a dry rub concoction on them and placed them in a bowl then back in the fridge overnight. HT has Bay Back ribs on BOGO this week. Both racks were around $15 with my 5% senior discount. Let me know if you would like detailed pics of the process. Today is the last easy shopping day of the week.

 

I hate fasting days without coffee!

Usually me when I fast! LOL!
Another cloudy, cold and dreary day…perfect for messing around in the man cave!
Do something special on this Friday and make it a great one!

 

. Early 2000s

 

Good Morning Everyone Have a Great Friday.
Last night I went to a wild game feed at church, there was a couple things I didn't try turtle soup, the fish of course/ 2 other items looked interesting but the reviews by the others at the table kinda made me chicken out. Pulled beaver taco and pulled raccoon taco both had comments the gaminess still came out past the spice. My neighbor who loves to hunt. Said raccoon isn't something he's found a descent method of cooking. But beaver back straps are good.
