Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

Due to economic cut backs, I've come to the conclusion that my dreams of having a horse ranch will have to be scaled back a bit.
Can't even afford a real jockey for the race horse.

Them lil things are expensive ain't they!

Save on feed and land!
Or once the branch is gone, get pulled over for crossing the solid line
Yeah.. I will have to agree with that.. just like the folks that have a dog as big as a Mack truck in the middle of Philly in a small one bedroom apartment, you could have a small heard of them!

But honestly, I would rather have the small dogs then the jockeys! They can be a pain in the butt from what I understand.. bumping into em all the time cuz you don't see the lil fellers!

And now, for a completely different take on "Stuck in the Middle With You", that might make you grumpy...
Two hillbillies are walking up Copperhead Road near dawn after a night at the local Lodge. They spot these two does stuck in the fence, from behind, and Bubba goes "Damn, if these were Mary Lou and Annabelle, stuck there like that." Billy Joe goes: "Damn, if it only was dark!"
A Public Service Announcement from GOF #1:
It's not a good idea to clean up broken window glass in your bare feet.
It's also not a good idea to clean it out of your lawn on your hands and knees while wearing shorts.
Now...hand me the tweezers and band aids, then get off my lawn.

Add: its not a good idea to combine beer and happy meds, go to bed for a few hours, wake up and make a couple of smothies, trip on an extension cord, head butt the corner of a huge solid oak stereo cabnet and toss the smoothies all over the floor and cabinet.
It results in a lot of cleaning the floor, cabinet, under the cabinet and somehow a banged up knee. In addition to the cleanup, of course, there is making more smoothies while wife sleeps through the bar blender noise, not to mention all the yelling and swearing before, during and after eating oak. Then the need to drink back the worn off beers.
My knee hurts.

Sorry, Sir Paul! You're probably going to have to get someone to blow into the hose and pump those back up again.
A quote from The Holy Grail seems appropriate (is it ever inappropriate?):
"Well, I gah' be'er."
(regarding being turned into a newt by the witch--"Burn her! Burn her!")
Get off my iPad!Heard enough talk about it. Time for the unofficial "Grumpy old amp tech/builder/user's" club?

Anyone want in? Not required to be grumpy all the time, just occasionally disconnect of judgement between the brain and fingers
Undecided if Mods should be eligible as we seem to drive them to it?
As I look down on my dinner I am having, before SWAMBO wakes up and sees what I'm actually eating for dinner, I realize, after careful conditioning and honing every cell in my body for half a century, depriving them of some micronutrients, overloading with others, I am finally able to thrive on a diet of beer, cracklin and pickled hot bell peppers (soaking the cracklin in the sauce). @99Z3 have you had your US RDA of cracklin today?
