Picking out shingles for the house as we speak. I can think of a lot of other things I'd rather spend money on.

Why do you beat beavers? You pet them. Carefully. Lest they bite.

Microburst? Saw the results of one in Upstate NY - came down, twisted the tops off some really old oak trees, and left.

Oh good L... never mind. First of all, anything you guys did would have to be locked up in a vault somewhere, or at least, behind a sheet. Second of all...

My first 8-track was when I was 12. I found it on the floor in my sister's car. She said it was her ex's, so yeah, take it. And throw it in a fire or something. So I listened to it in my bedroom because my stereo actually had an 8-track slot. While reading the Lord of the Rings trilogy. And because it's an 8-track, it endlessly repeats. It was Pink Floyd - The Wall

I went with a tin roof on the acreage. I absolutely hate installing shingles so of course every year one friend or family member needs help redoing a roof. 🙄

I was going to say my poor knees but that opens up WAY too many joke possibilities.😂

As a consultant, I get PAID to take the blame. But I'm not on the clock, so GTFO.

Dad's '69 Blazer is gone to the first guy to look at it, for the asking price. In related news, dad wants $6K for his gooseneck flatbed trailer. I couldn't find any info on it at all. No stickers, nothing. I have the title and I'm going to try to track down the specs. $6K seems a bit much, but the tires are in good shape. Maybe if I throw in a free mower blade sharpening he could get that price?

Love metal roofs especially up in my neck of the woods. Just wouldn't look right where my house is. Saw a few stains on the kitchen ceiling so I know it's time, not bad for 30 years. Probably should have replaced it sooner but then again I didn't think I'd last this long either ...

Thanks for the reminder. You think I could remember Saturday’s are fight night. 🤦‍♂️ I got them recording now. That Blaydes fight last weekend ran too long and my recording cut out the last half of the 5th round. Heavy weight fights shouldn’t make it out of the second round in my mind. If I wanted to watch 2 fat guys lay on top of each other for 25min, I’d book a trip to TN. 😂

Do you know why they are holding 5 round non title fights?

You’re ahead of the game if you got 30yrs out of a the roof.
