What's more fun is stepping in dog crap with brand new boots on! I swear every time I get some new boots they end up being christened by my dog's waste products!

Better new boots than socks.

Years ago when I was living with my dad I came home from work and he was out of town so I was in charge of the dogs. He had an austrailian shepard, probably the smartest and most loyal dog I've ever encountered in my life. But despite her best efforts she just couldn't hold it anymore and dropped a deuce right inside the front door. It would have been better anywhere else but she knew to go wait by the door if she had to go. Anyway I came home and smeared it everywhere when I opened the door and almost slipped in it. Luckily it was contained to the welcome mat so I hosed it and my boot off outside and let it hang on the fence.


Picked up some more OT tomorrow. I forget if Christmas and New Years day fall in the same pay period for me but if they do I'll get an extra $500 or so on that check between the OT and holiday pay.

I always thought "swedge" was a combination of "spine" located "wedge" or "edge."

That's just it... in the knife world, when we say "swedge", we know what we are talking about. It is common knowledge. But out there in cold, cruel world of NKP, they don't have a clue what we're talking about.

So how do we get the Oxford English Dictionary folks to acknowledge the word is real??? (OK, I KNOW I have had way too much hot chocolate today. That's why I'm still up thinking about weird, irrelevant stuff like this).:D
 
Ok, as long as we are talking strange English......on some rare occasions, I say the letters "L.O.L" and my 14 year old actually says it as a word "Lol"

Who is correct? I want to know because its already apparent we both sound like morons.

You're probably both right. I say it the way you do, but who knows about these crazy kids these days?

Okay the way to get the "degree" sign up there is to hold down the alt+0176: 30°. If you're using a smart phone and it doesn't have that symbol, then it ain't so smart.

This was totally worth an LOL. Which certain members of my family still use incorrectly as meaning "lots of love". But they (she) is a luddite. Seems to me your way is better. Gotta keep the upper hand with teenagers. Besides, unless she's military, she's not allowed to pronounce acronyms as words. 'Cause that'd be FUBAR.

Morning, folks. I am presently hiding out the best that I can from all the women and girls here. If I am forced to put on one more silly hat, I'm gonna whip out my 9 and make some damn earholes in the thing, whether it needs it or not. I honestly can't believe I'm becoming such a Scrooge, but why do they have to be so LOUD? The "squeal of delight" is at a pitch and intensity that could be weaponized. And since drinking is out at the moment, I've no option but to just try and make myself scarce and hope they don't come looking for me.

The waffle house sounds good right about now - can't wait to use my senior's discount!

So, do the kids suspect anything about the new dog?

I skip past 'degree' and just use units, since specifying degrees without units is still confusing. I'd say 30F or 30C, especially since I have to switch back and forth regularly. (science is all metric)

but why do they have to be so LOUD? The "squeal of delight" is at a pitch and intensity that could be weaponized.

yes, there is frequently an amplification feedback loop in such unbuffered groups... You're screwed. Put on your shooting muffs.
 
Hang in there Gus. You'll get old if you live long enough. Happy birthday man.

Taking another load of jerky to the PO this morning. Thirty five pounds into it and running the dehydrator every night.

They have no clue. As a matter of fact, being the type of guy that loves to torment, I had a lenthy discussion with my daughter the other day about not getting her hopes up about a dog. Told her about how hard it was to find a pup like she wanted plus that they take great responsibilty. We struggle with my daughter being responsible. Its a trend were trying to break. Anyway, the other day she told me that she would be willing to donate all of her toys new and old to charity if she got a puppy. Lol. She even told her mamma that she's been praying for one every night, however, said she knew she wasn't going to get one this year.:p
My son however, is totally responsible and independent. He's also easier to please. He wants a dog, but he'd be happy with a set of legos and a new knife. :thumbup: (wonder where he gets that from)
My kids aren't spoiled by any definition of the word. As a matter of fact, its no secret that its been a tough year for us with my job cutting me so badly. We've all done without a lot of things. So, its gonna be great to give them this as a thanks for being good kids and being patient with there Daddy. Really I got all of you guys to thank for that. Knife sales is what allowed me to get and purchase the pup. I'll be sure to post up pics of the great unviel!
