Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

Not open for further replies.
Old guys rule...

Finishing up the last 5 days of a 3 week "tour" with our horse entertainment theatre shows and all of us in the top acts are old guys (by rodeo standards anyway). There are 50 horses and ~40 riders in this multi-discipline show. Most of us riding between 2 & 3 shows a day. We're riding circles around most of the young 'uns!

Sir DiscoSpank ( @spankdaplank ) sorry for the flight delay :( I hope your family can stay until then!

Agedhorse, age and experience beats youth and enthusiasm every time.

With the latest round of young humanoids, I must ask, what enthusiasm? :D

110 degree heat index at 5 PM today, real temp dropped below 90, barely. Lower 80's now, and that feels better after earlier today. Coping with freezered Sam Adams, cracklin' and hot banana peppers, which is about as hot as I like now, and takes me back to the 70's with my dad BBQing chicken with a sauce based on same...

I want to stow away with Sir FiscoSpank to the PI and cool off!
 
Purr + growl= prowl. I like that. Could be growl + purr= gurr, which is actually closer to what I did. Tune is in Ab and I am hanging out in the lowest registers for the whole piece. Lots of fun working with my best friend and keyboard player/ producer AND guiding my 15 1/2 year old daughter into the treacherous waters of the music biz.
Definitely keeps my mind off my knee.

Music is very healing!
 
Butt Rash Watch for Tippecanoe County, IN

From 11:38am EDT, Thu Jul 21 until 8:00pm EDT, Sat Jul 23
  • Issuing Office: Indianapolis
    Source: The National Weather Service

    11:38am EDT, Thu Jul 21
    BUTT RASH WATCH FROM 10AM EDT FRI UNTIL 8PM EDT SAT
    * TEMPERATURE... HIGHS IN THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 90S WITH DEW POINT TEMPERTURES IN THE MIDDLE 70S.
    * IMPACTS... HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL REACH NEAR 105 FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AFTERNOONS. THIS WILL BE THE HIGHEST IN SEVERAL YEARS IN SOME PLACES. A BUTT RASH WATCH MEANS THAT A PERIOD OF HOT TEMPERATURES IS EXPECTED. THE COMBINATION OF HOT TEMPERATURES AND HIGH HUMIDITY WILL COMBINE TO CREATE A SITUATION IN WHICH BUT RASHES ARE POSSIBLE. DRINK PLENTY OF FLUIDS... STAY IN AN AIR-CONDITIONED ROOM... STAY OUT OF THE SUN... AND CHECK UP ON RELATIVES AND NEIGHBORS. MOST IMPORTANTLY, USE PLENTY OF TALC.
* THIS IS ONLY A BUTT RASH WATCH, MEANING CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE FOR A BUTT RASH, BUT NO ACTUAL BUTT RASH HAS BEEN SIGHTED BY NWS OBSERVERS. THE NWS, AS GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES, ARE EXPERTS IN LOOKING UP THEIR BOSS'S @$$ AND WILL SPOT A BUTT RASH IN SHORT ORDER; REMAIN CALM. IN THE EVENT OF AN ACTUAL BUTT RASH OCCURRENCE A BUTT RASH WARNING WILL BE ISSUED BY THE NWS WITH INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO PROCEED TO PREVENT BEING AFFLICTED BY THE EVER DREADED BUTT RASH. THE GENERAL PUBLIC IS URGED TO REMAIN CALM, YET ALERT TO THE SYMPTOMS OF BUTT RASH.
*SYMPTOMS... BUTT RASH SYMPTOMS ARE EASILY SPOTTED BY OBSERVING THE BEHAVIOR OF OTHERS. SYMPTOMS INCLUDE A FACIAL EXPRESSION OF GRIMACE TO ANGER OR ALL OUT RAGE. ADVANCED BUTT RASH SYMPTOMS INCLUDE WALKING BOW LEGGED AND CONSTANT TUGGING AT THE PANTS, LIKE THE POOR SAP HAS BEEN RIDING A HORSE FOR THREE DAYS IN THIS CRAP INDIANA WEATHER. THE MOST OBVIOUS SYMPTOM WOULD BE AN ACTUAL BUTT RASH.
*ACTION... IT IS ILL ADVISED TO APPROACH A BUTT RASH VICTIM AND CONFRONT THEM ABOUT THEIR CONDITION. THEY MAY BE VERY EMBARRASSED ABOUT THEIR CONDITION AND MAY BE ON THE EDGE OF VIOLENCE. WE ADVISE YOUR REPORT ANY SIGHTINGS TO THE NWS, AND PREFER REPORTS BY TXT OR E-MAIL WITH PHOTOS. HIGH RESOLUTION CLOSE UP SHOTS ARE MOST EFFECTIVE (PLUS WE WILL KEEP AND CHERISH THOSE FOREVER).
* DISCLAIMER... BECAUSE THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION (AND PAST TO BE HONEST) SEEMS INCAPABLE OF BORROWING OR PRINTING ENOUGH MONEY TO SUPPORT OUR VERY POOR WEATHER PREDICTIONS, WE ARE AUTHORIZED TO ACCEPT FUNDS FROM ADVERTISING. WE DO STRIVE TO PREDICT YESTERDAYS WEATHER ACCURATELY, BUT IT'S REALLY HARD.

My wife and daughter are now in the tough love mode. I had a big win today. Did you know that opiate pain killers can cause constipation that rivals the Hoover Dam. Anyway...I'm much better now.

Diabetic, sugar free, chocolate is the answer. It’s typically sweetened with Malitol. Two or three pieces will get you moving along nicely. :)
