Rat Chat down

A 10" sharp and pointy thing sounds really good, but I would be happy with a little Maverick as well!;):thumbup:

Tom,I'm going over to the mainland on the 23rd,and my first stop will be at the old place so I can get the leather and things I need to finish that Maverick!!
I'm spending Christmas with my daughter,then picking Dolly up at the Vancouver airport on the 26th so she and I can bring in our New Year together here in Parksville...
She has to return to Prince George on the 1st, and after that I'll be finishing your knife brother. :D
 
Day 215 or so.....
Had an early Christmas today as my sister is heading off to a foreign land called Canada.
Next week another Christmas with my Dad and Bro. Cool - 2 Christmases !

Brother,better make sure her mukluks are waterproofed and her snow goggles are clean,'cause the sled-dogs up here are pretty frisky this year...
Oh,and tell her to make sure her M9 is sharp 'cause the polar bears have been pretty plentiful lately; been seen raiding the sled convoys and bustin' into the igloos in the village of Vancouver too!
:D

lol,where is she coming to visit?
 
My big sis HATES knives for some reason - even though she is a top cook and uses good knives when she does. So no M9 :(

She is heading off to a ski lodge not far from Vernon called Silver Star.
It is in the Silver Star Provincial Park - NE of Vernon I believe....
But I think they are a chain up there.....

Pray tell, kind Mr. Wolf, what on earth are mukluks ? :confused:
I know about going to the dunny for a bludge - that is understandable.;)

Mukluks? Sounds weird.... :D
 
Silver Star is an awesome resort, she's gonna have a blast.
Some of B.C.'s most beautiful country...
As for mukluks:
The last one isn't a model...she's what we use for polar bear bait...(too scrawny for anything else!) ;)

LOL thanks Wolf.
Understood - the Canadian version of the Aussie sheepskin boot ! Just teasing....
That old fella in the 2nd pic could do with a warm cup of tea !

Seriously, they would be the thing to wear in the snow. Cool !

Nah,he's fine;he just had a nice hot cuppa steaming moose blood and Everclear.

I'm actually gonna be making some Wolf 'Luks this winter;Frontier style,
really nice knee high buckskin boots with elephant hide soles.

**in case you were wondering about Everclear:

"Due to its high alcohol content, Everclear is illegal, unavailable, or difficult to find in many areas. In Canada, Everclear is sold in the province of Alberta, but not in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and most other provinces.[citation needed] In British Columbia, it is available for purchase with a permit for medical use, research use, or industrial use only.
[edit] 190-proof

Concentrations of 95.6 percent ethanol and 4.4 percent water form an azeotrope such that simple distillation cannot remove any of the remaining water; 190-proof spirits are the maximum available from the distilled beverage industry. In 1979, the Guinness Book of World Records listed 190-proof Everclear as “the most alcoholic drink”. Guinness plc has since banned all alcohol-related entries from the book.

In the United States, it is illegal to sell the 190-proof variety in California, Florida,[3] Hawaii, Iowa,[4] Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota,[5] Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina,[6] [7] Ohio, and Washington.

In the Commonwealth of Virginia, Everclear is legal, but not sold by state-controlled liquor stores, which have a policy against selling grain alcohol lacking distinctive color, odor, and flavor.[8]

Everclear 190 is legally sold in Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho,[9] Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Jersey, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon,[10] Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Wisconsin, and Wyoming, and in some military stores within the continental United States."
 
...why? Do you need engine de-greaser?
That stuff will melt the paint off your truck and remove the hair off a 'roo in under 2 minutes...:D
 
95.6 per cent ethanol. They should be selling it at the Pharmacy.
I think I will have a shot of Vodka in the spirit of Christmas (any excuse) and go beddy bye byes. Gotta work till Christmas Eve.....THE SWAMP WILL RISE AGAIN ! Yee Ha !

Please Santa give us back our Swamp !!!

Had some plum brandy I brought back from Germany many years ago that everclear reminds me of. Smelled and tasted like airplane glue, but we drank it anyway.

Mukluks are great for cold weather, but not wet weather.

It is still not in my system to check BF every day, but I do check the Swamp link.... but still nothing! Could it be Erics Christmas present..... an all new Swamp???? Would be nice.... Ooooh and a new blade:D

maybe the Rat Solution will be a giant bowie that i can strap on my hip for winter grillin'! come onnnn, big old blade! :D
 
2__?

Everclear...alot like Chinese bai jiu (mao tai). I never touch the stuff, but have sat in enough official banquets to get thoroughly wasted off the fumes coming off the breaths of those sitting next to me. I think you could probably ignite the sweat coming off someone who just finished 20+ rounds at a dinner.

("Someday, Jimmy, you'll know bai jiu by it's true name: 'alcohol poisoning.'")
