I had to zoom in to see it, but yeah, that's a creepy looking SOB!

Hammered another kitty with the 224 Valkyrie.
No kidding.......the Ghoul has no legs !!!! Haysoos, the horror !
There's been beer. Besides, he's BEHIND the seats.

Captain Cavity Search strikes again.......

He's kneeling. Surely you know about this.
A good friend of mine sent me some WA rye whiskey that isn’t sold outside their state. It’s tasting very good! By time this porterhouse is done, I’ll be on my second and haven’t eaten anything all day. Thanks amigo ?
Haha, I live in Woodinville (when I'm not in a hotel room....like now). I know WWCo quite well. They also have a Vodka that's pretty damned skippy. Just wish they would have named it something other than "Peabody Jones"....a millenial cucks idea of trying to be "hip". But, in spite of the name, it's pretty good.

Funeral Pyre for our 14 year old cat that died. I wouldn't mind if they did this for me when I died. Big fire, stand around drinking beer telling stories, well in this case stories about a cat, but good times good sendoff. I'm glad the cat never came to on life 8 and shot skyward out of the flames!
I did the same for ours of 17 years a few years ago. Buried his ashes under a big near perfect cube shaped rock and planted some flowers around it. I still stop and talk to him every now and then.
Just read up on that place, looks like it has made it to the list of places to visit. Just hope the wife has agreed to try driving in the US before we get there.
I’d take a Viking funeral ?
Walking the dog this morning. Downtown Denver is center and Pikes Peak is just to the left.
There are over 100 ("boutique") wineries in the same area. If you're going to wine, I highly suggest Matthews Cellars. They specialize in reds and their Claret is to die for. They're not cheap, but well worth it. There are also transportation companies that will run you from winery to winery on their "short busses". Keeps the cops at bay and you from getting a DWI.

If you're up for it, let me know and I'll ferry you around. It's my front yard....
Sounds great mate, will probably get to that area around end of February, will have a US cell phone when we arrive so will try to chat with some of you guys. Local knowledge is much better than Trip Adviser.
That Matthews Cab Sav gets a pretty good write up....
2015 Matthews Cabernet Sauvignon
Matthews Cabernet Sauvignon is a Washington-born nod to the classic left bank blends of Bordeaux and Medoc. An incredibly selective blending process allows us to produce a wine that is structured, but remarkably balanced. Simultaneously elegant and fun, you can think of this as a wine that looks flawless in a tux, but isn’t afraid to loosen the tie, roll up the sleeves, and throw down on the dance floor. Cabernet Sauvignon leads the way, with Cabernet Franc and a touch of Merlot rounding out the blend and smoothing any rough edges. Beautiful, explosive aromatics announce the wine before you even pour it, and that opulence is replicated in the dense, vibrant mouthfeel. This is a really fun wine to drink, but it won’t beat you up with too much tannin. Bordeaux-style blends are famously terroir driven, and ours is no exception. Cabernet loves to grow in Washington, where our arid climate, large temperature swings and long growing seasons give us the powerfully ripe fruit you’d expect from California, with more of the balance, complexity and freshness you’d expect from a French blend. Matthews Cabernet, in particular, is characterized by its intense spice, silky texture and excellent transitions.

Buy it cheap and stack it deep
So let’s say, hypothetically, that a guy had a slide fire for his ar and his ak. Would that guy be grandfathered in? Or where should he “turn them in”??
Turn in or destroy is what I’ve read so far. For the guys that have one.
I’ll have to ask my sheriff tomorrow when they plan on rounding them up ?

I had an 18 year old cat die in my lap in 2012........put a 16 year old one down in 2017..........after almost 3 years of twice a day insulin shots..........we love the cats...........
That’s the way for sure! Buddies hanging around with a cold one and a warm fire. I like it. When my fuel pump stops, I’ll be sure the steel is out, Miss Lori will provide range, and after the last round is fired, light it.
Just asking for a friend??
This is Mason.
His "dad" is in jail.
His mom is working her ass off to stay afloat, and I've been helping her with some things here and there. I think we're going to make it.
Mason is a little guy, and the doctors say he's not growing quickly enough. They say it with him sitting there.
Mason has some speech issues and the grown ups argue about whether or not he needs therapy for that. They argue like he's not there.
Mason has been sick a lot lately because they were living in a shitty house with mold issues. That's been remedied.
Mason wet the bed the other night and grandma yelled and cursed at him for it. She's an asshole, but it's free childcare while mom works.
I gave Mason's mom a computer so she could look for better jobs, submit applications, and learn some basic office skills.
She sent me this the other night. None of that other stuff is on Mason's mind at this moment.
I could have sold that computer, but I never would have felt as rich as I did when I saw this.
He's watching dinosaur videos and he's just being a kid. He's just being Mason.
When the weather gets right, Mason and I are going fishing in Tucker's pond. That's a promise he smiled about.

I'm not an expert in these matters Tucker but i believe this last act of kindness qualifies you as a candidate for Sainthood
You're a good man Tucker. I dont care what the rest of these guys say about you. ?
Hi,
I am the ONLY one that just does not understand how Tucker has the time to be "That Guy" in his community and yet handle us here at the virtual community too??
Am going to definitively have to make the time to visit Tucker when I relocate to VA....
Sincerely,
Theis

Be careful, He'll probably put you to work. Lol

I'm still working off a deficit amassed in my first half century on this planet. Good times though!
My brother, a minister, told me the other day that I missed my calling. I said, "I don't think I did. I met her in a bar, not in church"
God loves to forgive and he's just going to love some of us more than others
We all find our time when we respond to that little voice. Its funny what happens to your heart when you do.
This is His intention for us.
Its the small things we see and offer kindness and hope that make a great difference in people’s lives.
Nice work Uncle Tucker

I picked her and the kid up this afternoon. Kid to the daycare and her to work. She said, "Mason has some exciting news for you!".
I turn and give him the oh really treatment.
"I got up and went potty two times last night!"
She adds, " and a dry diaper this morning!"
Put the fist out and said, "Pound it, big boy!"
He gives me the bump with a big old smile on his face. Made my day!

I think if we look around on this site, you will find that random acts of kindness like Tucker’s aren’t that uncommon. I know Tnichols helped a local church cut up a tree. I paid off the outstanding balance for a kindergartner’s lunch bill for the semester, anonymously. I am sure there are dozens more and the only reward we are looking for is the good feeling you get from paying it forward from some good deed someone did years ago. I encourage everyone to do what they can when they can and enjoy the reward.
Tuck........I agree about the saint hood thing........I'm sorry, but I have a busy life just trying to deal with my every day bullshit. Your every day bullshit just amazes me.......keep it up.........
Right now, my friends ex father in law died today..........WWII Marine..........I never met the man, but I gave him this coin.......I will be at his funeral.
How old is Mason?
And please PM me his mom’s name if you dont want to post it up.
I will add them to my list of folks who get prayers.

Aren’t we all? ?I'm still working off a deficit amassed in my first half century on this planet. Good times though!
Absolutely!
I told my wife that helping this young family is all I want for Christmas. It gives me great joy to help in these small ways. My brother says sometimes people's prayers are answered when they didn't even realize they were praying.
Mason has a Christmas party tomorrow at the church daycare that he is at part time. Mom will help with that.
After that she's agreed to "help" me upgrade a customer's laptop.
She'll get some hands on experience and knowledge and I'll give her a share of the bill.
I'm nudging her into looking at the kinds of technical work that pay good money for a little bit of skill and knowledge.
It should be eye opening to make what would be a night's pay in the bar in about an hour.
Yes, it's charity. But it's wrapped up so it doesn't look like that.
Our group projects here have exposed some kind and generous souls lurking these halls of Hide. I'm sure they extend well beyond what we see here.
Damnit Tucker, I'm on the rental car bus back to LAX, tears streaming down my face and people are looking at me weird.
Inbound PM, bastidge!......

The other day I saw the news story about a husband and wife who adopted 7 kids (all siblings) at once so they could keep the kids together.
Didn't mention why they needed adopted and I am sure it was something terrible.
Friggin lost it. Some gal saw me at my desk with tears and asked why. Then all the women got teary eyed.
