Wife’s doing better, it was supposedly a stress induced migraine and not a stroke. Idk if I buy it but that’s western medicine now. The boy is a damn trooper and strong as heck, so proud of him and sure made is dad proud and scared me at the same time. He told me on the way home he was glad it bit him and not his friends because he’s strong. Just some semi deep bite marks, got to keep an eye on it and some amoxicillin for a few days, he’s up to date on his tdap shots.

Damn, we’re pretty familiar with migraines around my house (unfortunately), but have never heard of going numb anywhere being a symptom.

Glad to hear your son is taking it so well. Hope there’s no trauma later with dogs, that’s something to watch out for (btdt).

Beat in a bowtie with a doubleshutter necklace, precursor to 3 clocks on a gold chain and yet it still worked. Okay we've gone afield somewhat. Frankly, I don't give a d*!&@ (ref earlier comments re: colorful language).

Just hope it doesn’t rain, we’re taking my truck and I don’t have a tonneau cover or anything haha. I need to get one or a canopy. Add it to the list of wants.

I'd go canopy.. they are all around more useful. A lot more, but worth it if you go camping/hiking a lot.

Yeah.. it's the first one I've had off in idk how long.

I like to pretend white collars get the day off to celebrate the blue collars misery at having to watch them grill out from their Instagram feed.

About to hit the road. 4 hours to Costco for a food pit stop, then about another 1.5 hours to destination.

Can't tell if the middle or ring finger is longer... also why does his hand look more like a foot...

Huck pulls parkour bullshit down the hall and through the master bedroom. Actually moves the king size mattress.

Our Golden puppy at 50+ pound can run sideways on the couch. . Only 30 pounds more to go...

I’ve already said this to Nathan.


I’m saying it to you bozos.


As I have the luxury of meandering past this dagger while it’s briefly in my possession, I can’t help but calculate a dollar value to what I KNOW I could sell this for.

I know, for Nate, there’s way more to it than the monetary value. Although we don’t work in the same fashion, I absolutely appreciate the process.

I mention this in passing, because all of you should wake every morning, before placing your feet on the floor to start the day, praying to whatever deities you feel compelled to, that Nate doesn’t ever listen to me in regard to pricing.

Because, if you were actually paying what this work is actually worth…

Zoomies are a feature, not a bug. Kobe's awesome at it.

I lose money on every one of them. But I make up for it in volume!

As my boss always said, “If you want to make a small fortune in the machining and grinding business, start with a large fortune!” Running a small business and consistently making a reasonable profit in today’s world is a huge accomplishment.
