First weapon I ever fired was a 12 gauge double barrel shot gun. The kick back almost dislocated my shoulder...

The boat that I know thats doing it this weekend is a 47 Rybo with the stars and bars flying from the fly bridge, redneck boat?

Regattas are "worse", lets just say what happens on Block Island/Newport stays there. Very often strip clubs are involved.

I have never seen someone find strip clubs so quickly on a PDA...

I can sense the stress is coming back. . . . once those bills come in the mail. Hey, that's sort of a self-perpetuating problem, isn't it? Just kidding. I hope you're okay now.

Now you're talking! Heavy equipment. What a rush. I used to operate heavy equipment for a road-building co. It was a blast. Sure beats using the "Mexican steam shovel!"

Bull dozers, Cat. self-loading pans (what a blast, literally, to have a 5" dia. exhaust pipe right next to your head and run that SOB flat-out!), motor graders, tanker trucks, etc.

I was 18-19 when I was doing that, but still remember those days fondly.

Trying

Trying to find a great deal on a diesel Benz for my daughter this weekend. If any of you N. Va guys has one, or knows of someone who might want to sell theirs, let me know.

Packing for my trip to Guam, via Hawaii! We saddle up Monday morning at 0-dark-thirty, outprocess for as long as Uncle Sam sees fit, and we're off. One night in HI, then on to Guam. Three weeks of... Guamanian life, I guess. Should be interesting, though I'll miss the new wife. We've been married all of 2 weeks now, and I get to leave her for 3 weeks!
