Snark Yurty to me

This snark's been limping along since the beginning. I say we just call it quits and we all go our separate ways. Maybe I'll take up calligraphy.

Then you'll snark even more slowly. I decline to second this proposal.
 
One does not simply "finish" the study of wood. To understand wood you need to understand what wood really is.

Wood is... Life...

Drops Mic and walks off stage...
 
In honor of 15 thousand posts I'll be giving away some wood...

To enter send me at least a 5X7 full body shot picture... We can still pretend the winner will be selected at random.
 
Those are very nice. Great score on both of them!

Thanks, the Whittler turned out to be unused! Somewhere around 100 years old, just sitting in a display. The bone is sun bleached mark side and normal on the pile side, factory edges, light swirls on bolstern and shield.

The cattle knife is due in on Thurs. I don't know how I am going to feel about the main opening with the left hand. If you look in the photo, you can see that it is reversed, came from the factory like that.
See below:
Great knives. Lots of beautiful bone and stag scales. This looks to be a similar pattern although Wostenholm named it a Farmer's knife.

Still not as disturbing as Moose's BK14 GAW of a few years ago (it involved shaving) but it's not that far off.
 
That was epic. Almost as epic as someone eating "poop" for their newborn's diaper. I'd almost got that image out of my head too. Damn.
 
Worked my first "day" at the plant nursery... Only 3 hours today. Work 6 hours tomorrow... It's part time.

It's Only $8.50 an hour but it's cash paid daily and i can work the days and times that i want. If i want to skip a day or sleep in a couple extra hours one day no biggie... but at most I'll normally only be able to get 6 hours a day.

Mostly weeded potted plants and picked up fallen tree limbs today... Did plant a few clippings and set them up to start rooting as well.

Make a lil extra money, keep busy while kids are in school, and learn more about plants and trees... I'm down.

I cracked mine, once....but it warn't from nuthin' so sissy. Cracked it in a hockey related thing.

Well, related.....I was wearing my goalie skates, free skating at the local college (RIT) - and I was jumping as far as I could every time I came across the crease.....and my feet went out from under me coming down from a pretty long jump.

Never heard of anyone so fey as to break theirs from bad news, tho......

Don't be the American adaptation of British GSOM.

I like calligraphy

On the off chance you don't know me personally, or have never tried cheating off me on a short-response exam, my handwriting is absolutely grim.

My C’s could easily be mistaken for O’s, my E’s look like L’s and my Q’s, well, my Q’s don't really end up looking like anything (at least not anything you could remotely trace back to our modern alphabet).

And it's been this way for as long as I can remember – my sloppy handwriting (or, more aptly, “chicken scratch”) is far from a new development. It's not like I graduated from high school and said, “f*ck it,” before letting my penmanship go out the window along with the rest of my academic upkeep. I've written like sh*t for as long as I can remember.

In fact, one of the most bizarre things anyone has ever said to me — and let's be real, people have told me a lot of strange sh*t before — happened way back in fifth grade.

After I just finished turning in an essay, my teacher divulged, “you know, you'd probably make a great serial killer.”

apparently the big money is in "finger spinner fidget" toys. high end ceramic bearing, little weighted spinny thing. some of these things can be spun up and keep going for 2+ minutes, longer if you know how to torque them... aka "torque bars"...

fun!
