3 more steals for 8/27 -- pix and UBBBs

You'd think I'd could resist after getting a great RR Chitlangi last week, but I couldn't--I snagged one of this trio, and I'm pretty sure it was the Chainpuri.

I double-checked the e-mail going to and from Uncle, and I still can't quite believe it. I agonized over it for a while before I clicked the send button.

Guess I'll know for sure in a couple of days. Haven't been this twitchy about a new khuk since I ordered the first one.

Rice, beans and really, really, cheap beer for the next month for sure, but it always seems to be worth it.


Since I found the cantina it's been:

Breakfast: 1/2&1/2milk Grits,
Pinto beans
1 egg
hot tea

Skip noon meal can't afford

Supper:
Thai Jasmine rice flavored with gravy from a baked chicken back
More beans
Martha White self-rising buttermilk cornbread

Dessert: another small piece of cornbread with a dash of honey

Poor as a church mouse but still able to snatch a UBBB or a steal once in a while.

;)
 
This having my internet down at work is REALLY REALLY getting old!! Man, all these good deals and I can't even get to 'em until after they've been snagged up.

Darndarndarndarndarn........
 
UBBB = Uncle Bill's Butt Boogers. :barf:

Or Uncle Bill's Best Buy. Usually a cosmetic defect such as rust or some minor blemish.

It's one of the two, I'm not sure which one anymore.
 
All gone if I haven't said so before but stay tuned. More coming tomorrow after I get back from St. Mary's. Little testing to get done.
 
I think St. Mary's was the real setting for "The Exorcist"
 
This one of those ones where I keep coming back to the the thread to look at the pix.

Y'all can't make me believe that you don't do it too.:)
 
Didn't mean to rub it in Tommy!

But I even go back and look at specials that I've been able to resist buying....

Really, my brain was bouncing around for a long time (at least so it seemed) before I sent in the e-mail. If its any consolation, I'm purty dang well busted for a good while now. Good luck on what's coming up next!:)

nonsense, sir! I revel in your good fortune, and good taste. I shall look forward to your reports of this blade. Enjoying it vicariously through you will simply whet my appetite for future acquisitions.

If you describe it in vivid detail, it will be almost as if I'm wielding it myself! ;)
 
Tommy,

A report will indeed be forthcoming. But allow me a few days. You've proposed a standard that I'm sure will take at least that long to attempt to approach. I'll try to do my best. As Uncle says "stay tuned".:)
 
Boy, isn't the way things seem to go sometimes? I had several fires to put out today and one REALLY big discussion with the higher ups...and yes, I said what I thought...we'll see what happens. Point is, during the lulls between hectic, I checked my computer only to miss every UBBB of the day. Monday disguised as Wednesday...I hate when that happens.
