First I want to say that all of you are special and class acts.

All of you are great and my only regret is wishing it could have lasted 3 more days.

TonyG - thanks for everything and see you soon.
Jamie (oldphysics) - same goes for you and your wonderful wife and daughter.
Daniel (wash) - Enjoyed meeting with you and congrats on the scores.
Guy (Resinguy) -thanks for buying me a drink and oh, send me back #14. :D
Strabbs - Glad I finally met you.
Scott and Vicky - I am glad I finally met you guys. Your sincere and down to earth way is refreshing. You made me feel like family, thanks. Renee really enjoyed talking with Vicky. Enjoyed talking too Eric and Amy.
John and family, once again great seeing you. You're sister in law ROCKS!!:thumbup:
Ron- Glad we met finally. I did not know Mulder was your Father:D
DaveBrown - As always it was a hoot. To bad your such a panzy. And yes, I am the one who urged Hamguy to take that mojo from you. I didn't plant the seed, but I germinated it. Thanks for the use of the shirt and yes, I would have given you the knife had I won it.:thumbup:
Hoss - You know crazy, but I know Kookoo. Good meeting you.
Padlingman - I think Princess Gunner has taken all attention away from you at this time. Good meeting you.
Jaxx - I enjoyed every minute. This morning was especially funny.

Drew, Garth, Amy, Jordan and the crew. You guys rock it all. Bubbles - I'll take care of the old man next time. I did not know Amy was your mother.
Hammy - As always, good seeing you again.
Raden - Glad I beat you too that custom SH1, actually my wife got it for me.
Shane - I cannot believe you were going to stomp me if I went for that SH1 sleeve that hit the floor.
Mhawg, Ronybear - we didn't talk much this time but glad you were there safe and sound.
Porkerson - I think you need some postal training
Stabber - Rick, you better get that leg looked at. Also, go get a shot for the other thing, it is curable.
Guyon - great placing the face to the name. Hope you enjoyed it
Jason (gravelhog) - great placing a face to the name. your beard reminds me of jackazz 2.
MikeH and Kim, as always it was great seeing you.
KAAK - bro, I really enjoyed the after hours. thanks
Dan Busse - whatever jerry told you about me, it's all lies.

Tim - thanks for everything bro.
Jerry - I did not think I could have a better time than last year, but I did. We'll do it again soon bro.
Jennifer, it was great meeting you and Renee really enjoyed her time with you.
Everyone else that I did no name, like Chuck(tan/tan CGFBM), I am still feeling the effects of this weekend so forgive me.


Ok, now for the memorable moments that I can possibly remember:

Thursday night late night drinking until about 4:30 am. Jerry insults my Scotch Boiler maker, but according to Garth, Jerry's beerdriver sucks bwalls as well.

Friday late night drinks until about 4am. Jerry bets me that his pigs nose would beat my ballantines in a drinktest. I won, and then Jerry wanted a second opinion so TonyG gave it and called ballantines a real scotch taste, saying that Pigs nose was a sissy scotch. Something about women liking it more. Jerry once again tried to get a third opinion and asked Stabber to make the decision, but this time he cheated and told Stabber to pick the cup that had pigs nose. Well, stabber got confused and picked the wrong cup, again giving me the win. So I actually won 3 times. Later in the night we did Cigars and Drink and myself and Jerry ended up out till nearly 5 am. Only DaveB and Hoss remained outside. DaveB could not get back into his hotel. I am sure the attendant saw him on video and was afraid to let him in.

Saturday morning - I got in late and missed the wood handled Jungle Assault SHBM. Damm.

Saturday night INDUCTION - Went great. BARB absolutely stole the night by winning the induction sword in a Busse knife knowledge wimens contest. Then came the mens turn. The contest Jerry concocted was about really weird information that wimen would know and really attentive husbands might know. Well, not only did I not know the answers, but I didn't even understand the questions and by the time Jerry would get to multiple choice option c and D, I forgot what A and B where so I would just make a guess. Shane said he knew he beat me, because he would look at my paper and whatever answer I put, he crossed off and only had 3 more to deal with. But the cake goes to PRINCESS GUNNER. PG's true colors really came out and he ended the night by winning this really Gay contest(not that there is anything wrong with that), winning his purse and a crown. More drinking and smoking till about 4:30am. Another late night ended up with myself Jerry, Amy and Tony. Tony went to his room at 3:30 and myself, Amy and Jerry remained. Tony came out at 5:20 to catch a cab to the airport and Jerry, Amy and myself were still there. At about 6 am we decided to go to sleep, but not before this big RAT came running ut of the bushes and attacked Jerry. It went for his leg. But Jerry kicked it and it flew about 20 feet, landed and ran into some bushes.

Sunday - final Day. hardly any knives left. Sunday night we drank. It was the Busse crew, Jerry, myself and Jaxx. It ended up with Jerry Jax and myself till about 4 am or so. But before we went up we had a visitor. Lets just call him TEABAGS. It was the funniest thing f the entire weekend, but I am tired of typing and want to catch up on some sleep so i will tell it tomorrow.
 
Thanks Cobalt. Makes me want to go even more now.

"TEABAGS" : this sounds bad. So I need to hear this. When you recoup of course. ;)
 
And it sounds like the after hour activities are where even more fun is. One on one with the Boss and Co would make the trip worthwhile in itself!!

Wait Till Next YEAR!!! Then more of us Northerners WILL BE THERE!! :) GO DREW!!

Thanks Cobalt - man good times!!
 
Cobalt, it was a real blast meeting you & especially hangin' with you & The Boss last night; the fun with TEABAGS... Can ya believe that guy????? LOL
I'm ONE WHIPPED HOG... Must sleep and re-hydrate, for tomorrow I have 196 images to sort through and separate the better from the worse... AND then POST 'em! BTW, that other PIC that ya wanted is indeed good, and I'll send to ya when I arise... 48hrs.???? (J/K) LMAO You will have FUN with it, I'm sure! :thumbup: ;)

:cool:"
Ladies & Gentlemen... I give you... "TEABAGS", the scourge of the US Navy..? :eek: Oops, I mean USN (LOL) :D He's into nuts. :eek::eek: :foot:
 
Cobalt, it was good meeting you Saturday and talking to you some more on Sunday. Also good to put a face with the name.
Thanks for throwing the ash contest Sunday morning (wee hours). I know you could have won if you'd tried, but it was nice of you to give a new guy a shot.
 
Sounds like I missed a GREAT time! Next year... nothing gets in the way... I'm there!!! :thumbup:

Thanks for sharing Cobalt... I can't wait to meet everybody, everything I've read in all the Blade posts paint a picture of some really great foolks!

Who the hell is this Cobalt guy??? :confused:

Cobalt,

Man you must have been SMASHED!:thumbup:

That was me with Dave not Hoss.:p :thumbup: Hoss is what 350 lbs and I'm 160... so you were seeing more than double:eek: :eek: :eek:

Dave is a great guy... I'm going to have to ask him to make a sheath for the special AD that I keep for a user.

Yes they were all good times... what a party. I think next year I pass on buying knives so I can stay up all night. :D :D
 
Cobalt, great meeting, drinking, and smoking with you and Renee. :thumbup:

mmmm.....enjoying a Talisker right now after a 13.5 hr drive home (don't ask)

I think you should have told everyone about how Dave Brown and I were throwing our Rucks at that tree around 2:00am, and you came over to show us how it's done, COMPLETELY MISSED the tree on two throws and walked off. :D

Thanks for letting me grab the carboard sheath for the 2007 SE FBM out of your hand.................and you can have #14 back, just send me an SHBM. A user will suffice.
 
:p Hey CoHog!!! I was drinking with ya'll Sunday night:grumpy:
I bet the Boss remembers :-(
You really are a "blackout " Drinker:D
Those BeerBons were good:thumbup:

you see, I post something and all I get from you is negative waves:D

You were inside drinking with all the other non-cigar smoking panzies at the Bar. Non-smoking Bars will soon go out of business. I bet their income has dropped by 70%

yes, you were there all night, I remember because both legs looked like they needed amputation. Better getem checked soon man.
 
Cobalt....

Always a pleasure to hang with you and I will let the comment about the "Mom" thing slide...............LOL


I wish we had a camera on Saturday night (errr Sunday morning) for the the flying Rat. :thumbup: :thumbup:

if I had been thinking I would have tried to hit the rat with a knife. But it might have stuck in Jerry instead.

Oh and GUY, thanks for the comment about me missing the tree.:eek: Yes, in order to stick it I would have to go back another 10 feet and not drank a whole bottle of scotch.
 
Another special moment: Watching Dave Brown remove a ring and drop a quarter through it! I was stunned! Size? 19.5!!

He then pulled the pinky ring and did the same thing! Wow.

I think Dave doesn't like to let this get out - it ruins his reputation as a tough guy, but Dave Brown is one of the most genuinely nice guys you'll ever meet. I got the chance to spend a lot of time with Dave over the weekend and he becomes like your brother within minutes. Anything you ever need, Dave, I got your back!

An absolute laugh riot, too!

This thread is an appropriate place to mention "the Cobalts!" Never more of a class act than those two! How much fun they're having is infectious and you can tell how much they enjoy everyone else. I had a great time with you guys and just wish there had been opportunity to spend more time.

Dennis - A word of advice. Never make your lovely wife over-the-top mad. She was relentless as we coursed the hall hunting for the fella in the cowboy hat who mistakenly walked off with a knife! You have a "keeper," bro!
 
At about 6 am we decided to go to sleep, but not before this big RAT came running ut of the bushes and attacked Jerry. It went for his leg. But Jerry kicked it and it flew about 20 feet, landed and ran into some bushes.

I smell a plot involving Porkerson.

Does anyone recall the details of his Rats of the Cheesewheel speech?

I'll bet there were subtle hints embedded there.

I blame Porkerson!

You are right, Dave is like a teddy bear. He's the nicest guy behind that rough exterior.

Yes, renee can be tough. I loose chest hairs she's pulled on a weekly basis. I guess growing up in an all military family as she did will show. All the male members in her family, dad, grandfather, all her uncles and her brothers were in WWII, Korea and Vietnam

Funny, we said the same thing after it happened. I thought it might be Eric in disguise.

ROTFLMAO:thumbup:
 
Man you are long winded ..... I never knew you actually could remember this much. :D

It was a pleasure to meet you and your wife.

I sure hope my father's will includes all INFI (oops, all Busse) to his wolfson
