Thanks. I'm pumped, and it took a really good edge, tho there are a few spots that are a little dinged up.

My lucky day. Found lotsa stuff while working in the past, rarely even something NOT a POS. But today was the first time I ever found a knife.

Reasonably good shape, needs an edge and the spine has a little damage (looks like it was batoned!) but overall OK. Serrations aren't my preference, but I ain't complaining. The most expensive item I ever found was a Sony video cam, on the side of the road, while cycling a coupla years ago. Saw it, slammed on the brakes and went back and just stuffed it into my jersey pocket. Was surprised as hell when I got home and opened up the screen and it turned on....been using it ever since (had to buy a charger for it) but it's great, cause I don't worry about breaking it or losing it, tho I would be bummed if I did.
Anyway, I got a knife to clean up and sharpen!
Doc - not in my neighborhood. I heard that there is a house for sale around the corner that got broken into. The House was empty but the bastards stole all the copper wire and plumbing fixtures. WTF!!!
Glad we've got a pack of dogs at our house.
Pics, woody! Pics!
I made my first batch of chili of the season today. Turned out damn good.
Work sort of gets in the way of that. ...thankfully, there's always lunch break. ..notice I did NOT say "lunch hour".Looks like we've entered the dreaded "No Snark Zone."
Did you get that worked out?If one is going to have an existential crisis, it's probably best not to have it while stuck in traffic on the Tobin bridge.
