Nice Daizee.
I love the G-10 Spydercos.
Not too big on the FRN myself either. Feels cheap.
When I was first looking into folders I thought Spydercos were just too ugly.
But after I got the Manix2, I understood what all the fuss is about.
Well made. Good design and functionality.

+1 on this. I will say that at least on the FRN Spydie that I have, it's got steel liners....and it feels less plasticky than my BM 550. The blade on the Grip I like a lot, but the handle feels (and sounds)...hollow, and not as solid as the Spyderco FRN. Manix2 just ROCKS, though, even if it is hollow ground.
 
As long as we are talking Spyderco, I have an Endura from way the hell back, like 1st Gen. It served me well but I always hated the serrations on it and it has sat in a drawer for near 10 years now after the tip got broke off. I don't carry a folder anymore however, I'd eventually like to grind off the serrations and clean it up, if for nothing else so that it is worthy of the drawer it currently sits in.;)



Yea, old school

There was a Breeden Spyderco that I liked a lot, don't remember which exactly. I'm gonna check.


Edit: Found it, the Breeden Rescue. Oddly shaped, but looks like a fine cutter. Not much of a point, exactly my preference.

Just got in from one of the local casinos. Only went for an hour or so. there was a promotion for $25 in free game play so me, my wife, and her brother from NY went and lost our 25 and came home. Didn't spend a dollar, didnt make a dollar, but it was still a good time, now having some drinks and prepping some food.

Hope everyone enjoys thanksgiving and has a great day tomorrow.
 
funny thing:

people i know, husband and wife... and a kid. wife is like "we need to buy junior the best tablet there is" -- "no, he's not ready" -- "yes" -- "no" -- "this is not over"

and she buys a higher end iPad with all the memories, so junior can have all the movies and games...

it's not even completely trashed, and junior broke it. apple "fixed it" for a price. new unit, only out of consideration of owning a VERY short time. they upsold her on apple care.

now she's into the hole over $1000.

junior had his tablet a week. unknown to dad. broke it again. oh, apple care expires if they replace the unit. so she bought it again.

this repeated over the month. credit card bill comes in.

"uhm, honey, why do we owe apple all this money? what did you buy"

oh nothing honey. here, i bought you an ipad :D

junior wants to play with it. daddy says no, mine.

junior still got his hands on it. broken.

mmm...

sometimes they are too young.

as for "the modern world, computers, stuff". crap argument. 99% of tablet users are CONSUMERS. they don't create anything. they consume.

you really have to go out of your way to create on one, esp if you want to program one. forget creating an applet on one without a real computer and a few years under your belt in programming.

kids should get blocks, and sticks :D
 
A 7 year old and a 4 year old are upstairs in their bedroom. "You know what?" says the 7 year old, "I think it's about time we started swearing." The 4 year old nods his head in approval.

"When we go downstairs for breakfast I'm gonna swear first, then you swear after me, ok?" "Ok" the 4 year old agrees with enthusiasm.

The mother walks into the kitchen and asks the 7 year old what he wants for breakfast. "Oh, $h!t mum, I guess I'll have some Coco Pops" WHACK!! He flew out of his chair, tumbled across the kitchen floor, got up, and ran upstairs crying his eyes out.

She looked at the 4 year old and asked with a stern voice, "And what do YOU want for breakfast, young man?!"

"I don't know" he blubbers, "but you can bet your f...... arse it won't be Coco Pops."
 
A little girl walks into a pet shop and asks in the sweetest little lisp:

"Excuthe me, mithter, do you keep wittle wabbits?"

The shopkeeper gets down on his knees (so that he's on her level), and asks:

"Do you want a wittle white wabby or a soft and fuwwy black wabby or maybe one like that cute wittle brown wabby over there?"

The little girl puts her hands on her knees, leans forward and says in a quiet voice:

"I don't fink my pyfon weally gives a thit."
 
A sales man knocks on the door of a house and a kid answers wearing his dad's robe, a fedora, and holding a glass of brandy and a lit cigar. That sales man says "um,hello. Are your parents home?" The kid says "Does it look like they're home?
 
A fifteen year-old boy came home with a Porsche and his parents began to yell and scream, "Where did you get that car???!!!"

He calmly told them, "I bought it today."

"With what money?" demanded his parents. "We know what a Porsche costs."

"Well," said the boy, "this one cost me fifteen dollars."

So the parents began to yell even louder. "Who would sell a car like that for fifteen dollars?" they said.

"It was the lady up the street," said the boy." I don't know her name--they just moved in. She saw me ride past on my bike and asked me if I wanted to buy a Porsche for fifteen dollars."

"Dear God," moaned the mother, "she must be a child abuser. Who knows what she will do next? John, you go right up there and see what's going on."

So the boy's father walked up the street to the house where the lady lived and found her out in the yard calmly planting petunias! He introduced himself as the father of the boy to whom she had sold a
Porsche for fifteen dollars and demanded to know why she did it.

"Well," she said, "this morning I got a phone call from my husband. I thought he was on a business trip, but it seems he has run off to Hawaii with his secretary and doesn't intend to come back. He asked me to sell his new Porsche and send him the money. So I did."
 
A city boy moved to the country and bought a donkey from an old farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day. The next day, the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry, but I have some bad news. The donkey died."

"Well,then,just give me my money back."

"Can't do that. I went and spent it already."

"OK, then. Just unload the donkey."

"What ya gonna do with him?"

"I'm going to raffle him off."

"You can't raffle off a dead donkey!"

"Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead."

A month later the farmer met up with the city boy and asked, "Whatever happened with that dead donkey ?"

"I raffled him off. I sold 500 hundred tickets at two dollars apiece and made a profit of $998. "

"Didn't anyone complain?"

"Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back."
 
Last one,

A woman and man get into a car accident. Both of their cars are totally demolished, but amazingly neither one of them is hurt.

After they crawl out of the wreckage, the woman says, "Wow, look at our cars -- there's nothing left! This must be a sign from god that we should be friends and not try to pin the blame on each other."

The man replies, "Oh yes, I agree with you completely."

The woman points to a bottle on the ground and says, "Somehow this bottle of Scotch from my back seat didn't break. Surely God wants us to drink this Scotch and celebrate our good fortune."

She hands the bottle to the man. The man nods his head in agreement, opens it, and chugs about a third of the bottle to calm his nerves. The woman takes the bottle, immediately puts the cap back on, and hands it back to the man.

The man asks, "Aren't you having any?"

The woman replies, "No. I think I'll just wait for the police.
 
Teacher asks for volunteers to use the word "definitely" in a sentence. Little Johnny raises his hand. Reluctantly, the teacher calls on him.

"Do farts have lumps?" Johnny asks.

"What? NO!" the teacher exclaims. :confused:

"Well then, I have definitely crapped my pants."
 
LMAO!!

I keep laughing ill never be able to fall asleep. Here is another

A husband and wife are shopping in their local shopping center

The husband picks up a case of Budweiser and puts it in their cart.

'What do you think you're doing?' asks the wife.

'They're on sale, only $10 for 24 cans,' he replies.

'Put them back, we can't afford them,' demands the wife, and
so they carry on shopping.

A few aisles further on along the woman picks up a $20 jar of
face cream and puts it in the basket.

'What do you think you're doing?' asks the husband.

'It's my face cream. It makes me look sexy and beautiful for you
when we're making love,' replies the wife.

Her husband retorts: 'So does 24 cans of Budweiser ... at half the price.'
 
Why did the chicken cross the road?

Earlier that morning the farmers daughter had inadvertently left the gate to the yard open as she was preoccupied by her worry over a math test set for that day. She hadn't studied for the test as she was still deeply distressed over her fathers recent health problems. This, coupled with the added burden of household chores now delegated to her because her mother was out trying to get the field prepared for sowing, had made her quite forgetful and distracted of late.
Whilst several chickens escaped, only one strayed so far that it actually encountered the road facing the farm. After crossing the road and gorging itself in a delicious soybean crop, the chicken was struck by a moving van as it attempted to make its way home.
Several hours later the dead chicken was spotted by a Community Mental Health Worker who was doing his bi-weekly rural clinic run. The chicken, being a bantam caught the eye of the Mental Health worker, who was a keen and avid trout fisherman.
"Cool" thought the mental health worker- "those feathers will make for excellent trout flies". He stopped and plucked a handful of the most iridescent blue, green and orange feathers and placed them in an envelope. He rolled himself a cigarette, sat on the trunk of his car and admired the setting sun along with the pink and purple clouds. "God, I love this job", he muttered to no one in particular...

There's a specific word for a story/joke like that, that's very involved but goes absolutely nowhere. I'm stone cold sober, but I can't think of it at the moment.

"Annoying" will suffice for now :D
