wanna go waaaaaay back?…

Not as far, but..."ah so, rucky punch"

 

[NewbOldster]

diet pills were a thing back in the 60’s….mothers little helper

we liked the dexies , Dexedrine and some we called M&M’s….we would get wired up for a day or two then get a bag of weed and a bottle of Boones farm and crash and burn

Boone's Farm soiled me on wine forever.

I looked at the 5.7 when FN first came out with theirs. Been a minute, but as I recall I was a little put off by the requirement for teflon-coated projectiles, if I remember correctly.
But nothing says flat trajectory like light weight speed does.
I haven't been 'in the market' for a while now...is the teflon requirement still a 'thing"?

nope, just got 1000 rounds of sub sonic 5.7's and nothing but copper...the non suppressed ammo has the blue tip core loc...

My nickname in high school was speed racer… I’ve always been into cars that go fast and have very little regard for speeding… I’ve been pulled over five times in the last six months for excessive speed. Fortunately, for myself all I’ve gotten was a warning…. I’m doing my best to use cruise control now, but it just doesn’t seem as much fun

You sound like Sammy Hagar.

You sound like Sammy Hagar.

That sounds about right, except for the Ferrari… I prefer the pounding of the American V8

Around here, if they pull you over you are going to get a ticket. Guess, I am not good enough looking for a warning.

Does anyone know how I can edit my posts. I’ve been posting off of my smart phone and spellcheck is destroying the intent of my words…platz is down in German, not plate…

in case you haven't figured it out, down next to the report button is three dots. Click on them and it will bring up your edit.

Why you have a report button on your own post makes me wonder.

Thank you brother, I am a little slow it seems

It’s a beautiful day out here in the swamp, we’re right at the high 60° mark, weather, like this makes the dogs full of spunk. I just put some hay down for the hogs and I can’t keep Ivan away from the mail, which is the tan one. You can see him lurking behind the Feed barrel, looking to start some shit with the pigs.

I was stationed on Oahu for two years. I used to jump off the dive rock at Waiamea, then dive on down to a hole at the bottom of it and swim to the other side. My buddies would be waiting for me to come back up from my jump, and I'd sneak up behind them while they looked for me.

Saw some 35-40 foot waves there a couple times. Impressive! Hanauma Bay was one of my favorites.

I saw six foot waves at cedar beach over looking the Long Island Sound and they told me you should leave.
And I listened

We raised pigs when I was young. They were pretty cool for the most part. Smart.
And...bacon.

Half of my guys are out there surveying with drones now.

There are few of us left that know how to run a closed traverse with a transit.

I'm a part of a dying breed

Had a friend who was a surveyor for Brookhaven National Lab for the nuclear collider.
Surveying is a lot more than mapping out building plots ( as you know!)
