You look like I feel.
Got up all sore and achy. She won the bed battle this time.

Mine has a pocket for cigarettes I no longer use.

Hey we’re twins! Yeah I snapped the selfie before coffee this morning and dreading the heat today while mowing. Curses!

Took Millet out back. Recorded it and am playng it back.
He perks up and gloats every time I say "good dog".
It's something you just have to experience is how he helps in editing. (Joking)
He pays very close attention and has figured out what a cell phone camera does. He's pretty smart (for a dog).
I think he knows some words.

Had fun doing your shirt. Was so afraid the stripes would be overdone that I did the opposite. It's not that bad but could be better. Giant size is easier than kid size.

Awesome looking shirts!! Woke up to red white and blue pancakes. Strawberry and blueberry pancakes with whip cream on top. I’m not a big whip cream guy so I just had butter and syrup. Also sausage and bacon. Now I’m at work doing the oil field thing. Today will be a day full of junk food. We will have our annual fish fry. All walleye. Usually have beer batter, just plain, and Cajun. Twice fried American fries and a bunch of other crap.

there are hundreds of "how to tie dye" videos. I searched for flag ones. It's one of the easier ones to do.
Sounds like you really like the eating.
I'd melt if I had pancakes in July.
WHAT?!? NO HUNNY???
Sounds good.
Oil field? Then I assume you'd celebrate harder if gas were $10/gallon.
Spend it quickly.

[Ricky Spanish]

Tie dye is popular again?
Yes. clever marketing and millions of kids at home driving their parents nuts.
The tie dye party is a thing.
Party packs are cheap and fun.
I got into it out of boredom.

My wife typically makes us tie-dye shirts for the Fourth of July every year. I believe she went a different route this year. Have not seen it yet.

High oil prices only benefit me in regards to being able to get things to help me do my job without the bigwigs questioning it.

We have honey coming out of our ears. The bee guys usually give the land owners a case or two and then they have so much that they give it away. Also got that honey spread, honey barbecue sauces all sorts of honey stuff. I do my best to watch my sugar as sugar equals carbs and for me carbs equal fat boy. There are some days of the year I do pig out. Otherwise I’ve been basically doing the keto thing ( a little over a year now.) Seems to work for me.

I received a private message from you but for whatever reason it won’t let me open it.

Hey it just occurred to me how the year suddenly goes into high gear and races to Halloween after Independence Day. Is it like that for everyone?
It's like 4th of July BAM Halloween and duck season.
Get ready while it's not raining.
Oil changes and changing boat impellers are easy when it's not raining and 34 degrees. Just sayin..

Keto? I'm not even sure what it is. Assume it's all meat no carbs. I'd do it for one day then see a cracker or something.
I eat but "diet" is pretty much "follow the cravings".
An apple sounds good. My wife refuses to buy anything but granny smith so I gave them up.
Try choking a few sour apples down..

It’s not all meat. You can have carbs. They recommend I think like 20 a day you I find I can get away with about 35 a day. There’s lots of great sugar-free candies out there and ice cream’s now. I eat ice cream every night. I love ice cream! I could eat duck, goose, chicken, beef,… Every day and fish. I love fish! Bacon and eggs and you know what keto is because I know you replied to that keto thread on your favorite website!

Bill is just plain a nice guy. I gave him a bottle of Templeton Rye. He showed me how to enjoy it right.
Silver cups...ice

No wonder he does what he does.
Him and Chris A have incredible online savvy.
Me? Not so much. I'm overly salty.

I WILL weasel my way into a cooksey hunt asap.
Reelfoot Lake ...bucket list....hell yes

Nobody said it was but you.
Even Bayou Meto doesn't measure up.
Waterfowl heaven is located in Brookings, Arkansas.
You'll know it when u see it. Google it.
Black River baby.
Beware. Show up there with Texas tags and it'll get ugly.

Cooksey oozes duck. It's hard to describe but if you meet him you'll get it. I'd like to hear him call at ducks. That is all.

On the 4th my dumb neighbors were doing mag dumps with a 25 auto in the front yard.
Wife muttered "where are they getting the ammo to waste not practicing?".
Around here they all have pistols but can't shoot.
I've seen them murder each other.
A gang will chase someone down. Get them on the ground then shoot them up close because they can't hit a thing.
They don't practice shooting at all.

Technically that is a pistol!?!
Yup.

20210912_104017.jpg

Now ask Sam Ortman how many times I missed.
(Zero) Target was 150 yards.
I only shot twice. The big dents were mine. The little ones were duckslayers.
Rifles and pistols? Nah.
I miss with a shotgun too.
Rifleman?
Pfftt. Nope.
