Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

[beans-on-toast]

I was a supporting member from the beginning, but these days, as I have nothing to sell in the Classifieds, this non-income producing GOF is cutting back on non-essentials.

I was thinking of doing the same.

Oh man, I had to quit watching after they managed to get the dust cover on without hurting themselves. It took two of them to do a lame job in twice the time it usually took me to do an exemplary one when I was a slick-sleeved Army private. If I had walked away from my bunk and left it like they did I'd have found all the bedding on the floor when I came back from training.

They're Air Force.......they'll pre flight it later.

Right now I am on the prowl for a new winter coat, so whatever money I can save elsewhere will be going into it. Been looking at a North Face today and will be checking out some others tomorrow.

TB should offer a membership discount for folks over 65.

I'd pay extra for that.

You don’t hear much about honey badgers anymore...oh look, a quarter...

A guy wants to go fishing so he stops in the bait shop.

Guy: How much is bait?

Proprietor: Oh, I could let you have all you want for a dollar.

Guy: Good! Give me 2 dollars worth!

Warm winter coats are tough. Pay a lot for a really good one and it will last though your life if you take care of it. I've had a comfortably larger one for 15 years and it's as good as new even though I wear it every day.

The key here is to buy larger than you need when you are young.

Proper layering is as important as a good overcoat. That wool stays warm when wet is all the knowledge required.

I can still wear the same earrings I wore in high school

When I was a kid, I bought a down filled NOS military surplus coat for $25. It was really warm and lasted for many years. Not a big problem but it was army green.

I was never in the military but there is something that I really like about olive drab.

I can attest to the ears. And my hearing has really taken a hit...go figure.

Deer here.

I'd pay extra for that.
