You like comfort because you're scared.

It's a good thing there aren't any marmots around here.

Mt. Whitney Trail Camp...the place is infested. One chewed through my buddy's brand new tent to get at some morsel he accidentally left inside.

My wife is watching one of those chick flicks that she got from our local Catholic Church's video loan closet.

That child actor who used to play the teenage son on a TV show called Growing Pains back in the '80's? He is in the starring role.

I excused myself to go to the bathroom, but i came here instead. Except now I have some gas pains and I'm wondering if I should break from this to actually go to the bathroom.

The noble Sir Zachary presented me with a bird on Tuesday morning, which I thought was dead. After finding it was alive (but in serious shock), I put in my Avery (which I don't use) on a branch on the ground. Two hours later it was up on a high branch, so I opened the door, and it flew away.

The next day, I was visited by 12 of these "mickey birds" (elders of the flock), and they told me the bird in question was very highly regarded - the Aristotle of mickey birds. They presented Sir Zachary with "The Iron Feather" - their version of the Silver Cross. Apparently, the bird ran into a window, and Sir Zach bought him to me for help. All hale Sir Zachary - he could well be King one day. I'm humbled in his presence.

^ What spirited adventurism to operate an aviary.

I use a big ass Vermeer D bore machine. Ours is capable of drilling 400' and pulling back a 4" gas main. If all the other services ( Old gas, electric, water, etc.) are already spotted we can have a 400' gas main in the ground in under 2 hours.


Nice that y'all made a thread about it. lol

The aviary came with the property - I don't like the idea of caging birds, so I don't use it. Still, it did serve a purpose - it helped save one of the great avian minds of our time (so I'm told). Of course, the valiant, noble Sir Zachary is due all the credit. All hale Sir Zach! (and you should be kneeling, you peasants). You may think him just a German Shepherd, but he's a Knight of the Realm, a Champion of the Oppressed, and a friend to all creatures. Besides that, if you even look like you intend to hurt me, he'll rip out your throat without a moment's thought - now that's true Nobility.

I did some things this morning.
I set up a shelf, moved some boxes and paint cans.
Then I mopped the floor, ok so I didn't really mop the floor but I still feel pretty good about it.
