I actually like being dissed. It should get the players attention. Stoops has never won in Starkville. Next Saturday will be a good day to change that

No doubt she's finished in the film industry. This was her second mishap in as many movies.
‘Rust’ armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed once gave unchecked gun to 11-year-old actor: report
The “inexperienced” armorer in charge of weapons on set of Alec Baldwin’s movie “Rust” had given a gun to an 11-year-old actress without checking properly for safety, a report said.

I agree. I know we are more talented than they are. Just have to play a little harder to compensate for and shut up the home crowd.
Brave fans be of good cheer. You do not have to play the series in Colorado regardless of what Stacy Abrams says.
I dealt with 3 way communication for most of my working life. Applying those standards here I would think going forward you cannot tell someone the gun is safe, you will have to show them it is safe, they will tell you the gun is safe, you will agree. Now you may transfer the weapon.
Does anybody else work MORE when the Mrs is gone? Or do you tend to back off/goof off? I work more obviously since I haven't been on here much. When she was working I was always busy...working in the yard, on the property, on the rentals, etc. As soon as she retired it was like flipping a switch...I started to do less. Never one to just lay around or take a nap, but I definitely backed off my work load.
Now that she's been gone for a month for an extended visit to her daughter's...it seems that I've barely sat down. Odd.
Anyway, its been pouring rain all day. Rain gauge says 2 inches today. I've got a bad spot on a back roof in one of the rentals so I've been kind of worried about that today. Have contacted my roofer 3 times in the last month and he still hasn't come out. Good guy, but it's really hard sometimes to get contractors on a timely basis.
Anyway, hope all are doing well.

This a serious post? And, how did you get the wife out for a month? You’re now king, hands down. Kidding (maybe, maybe not)😐
You know what I notice about that report? Even the 11-year old, erroneously given a “hot” gun, had enough sense not to point it at someone and pull the trigger.No doubt she's finished in the film industry. This was her second mishap in as many movies.

I made a post in the Baldwin thread about his defense being he was an emotional infant. More proof.
A day in the life Sir, a day in the life. My BIL and SIL just visited. The BIL pitied me after seeing me two days. He gifted me an SKS he built himself. I had a real good time, we even got to fire about 200 rounds each at a shooting range he found 4 miles from my house.
I thought I had it good but I was kind of tiring.. He stated he heard about some men having multiple wives. He saw a man in me that was at the beck and call of three wives... He treated me very well telling me he now understands now my commitment(s) to my family. My Darling and my two daughters whom I love dearly are nearly killing me (Mostly my daughters). (Won't go farther but it has not been easy.) I am still very thankful.
I get to go to work tomorrow...............and rest.
Daughters are tough. Mine turned out great, but I have lots of scars. And wannabe feelings. Couldn’t go through it again. My son in law is great, but....., just, but.
Ha....Her daughter's hubby is Reserve and was about to be deployed for close to a year. So she flew cross country for a week to be with him before he left. And then a few days after she got home she had lasik surgery...so she wanted her Mom there for both things to watch the kids...two of the absolute worst little kids I've ever been around. I told the Mrs before she left that I could care less if she went for a week or two...no complaints from me...but 5,6 weeks is a bit much. And now I think she pretty much agrees with me. Sounds like she's more than ready to get home.
If you walk down the street and meet an idiot, well ... you just happened to meet an idiot.
But if you walk down the street and everybody you meet is an idiot ... guess what? In all likelihood you are the idiot.
This is what describes several of those guys who post in the political thread.
Hope you know I’m just shooting the breeze. But, I understand.
I wasn't, I was venting. (All I have,) I am still thankful, don't get me wrong. I thought I had it rough when the two daughters lived here with my grandchildren. Now they each have their own home.... I should have known to be thankful but I have no need for patience. Just hope I can hold out for my Darling. None of them seem to understand what they are doing to me. No man can keep up what I have been doing for pushing three years now. (And I am a rock. Nothing sways me...I am feeling the wear now though. I feel it.)
Will Coach Stoops leave for greener pastures? I can't see it. This is his program. He built it but who knows. The best coach UK has had since Bear, back when Don, Sawnee, Bert and Chief were just babies. Ancient stuff.

I just do it the way I was taught.....the only thing she turned upside down was things that she didn't put in the pressure canner......like the left over soup......I am not saying it is right or wrong..........
Man...what a gut punch. Thought I would go back a few days and try to catch up a little with what everybody has been doing, posting, etc. Then I read a post by @cordmaker.
I said a prayer for him and his family. Cannot imagine the pain and hurt they are going thru.

I have two kids. Don’t know how many you have, it’s really irrelevant. But the love we have for our kids knows no bounds. It’s never ending. I know, in a small way, what you are dealing with,, and I just got stuck. No I don’t. Every situation is different. Best of luck, I do mean that!
Vent all you want if it helps.
Work? Explain, please.
I think not. Coach Stoops got a great situation going here. His latest bourbon venture is gaining momentum. He also realizes Mitch Barnhart gave him some leeway early on.
I love bologna more than any cold cut.......actually it has to be Fisher's Bologna.........I can eat that stuff for breakfast, lunch and dinner.........It is one thing that I never tire of...........The Director came home with three packages the other day.......3 for $5...........I was giggling like a kid on Christmas.......also Carl Fisher was one of my best customers when I was in business........if I went to their house first thing in the morning I was expected to sit down and have breakfast with them before I would start what ever maintenance task that was on the docket.......the first time I dodged the breakfast invite, I told her that I only ate Sugar Puffs.........should have thought that one out better........she kept a big box of them in the pantry after that......Good morning from ATX. Currently 71°F and cloudy. Today's high predicted at around 88°F.
Yeah, watched Braves close out Dodgers last night. They earned a spot in the World Series against Houston Astros. Love it. ATL been knocking on the door past four seasons. Fun fact: Current Astros manager Dusty Baker played 8 seasons for the Braves between 1968-1975. He was on-deck when Hank Aaron hit 715.
Also watched UK beat Hogs in volleyball 3-2 in another nail-biter last night. Go Cats!
Usual chores planned for this morning. Heading to Bill Miller's before my walk for some breakfast tacos.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.
Stoops knows how tenuous head coaching jobs are in the SEC. He's making good money here and it's only going to get better. He could have a losing season next year and not be on the hot seat. He's too young to set himself up with the vagabond reputation. Just a few reasons he stays here for the long run.
I saw a picture some where of Baldwin talking on a cell phone and he was crying............I have to remind you folks.....he is an "actor".....He can probably cry on a seconds notice......
I know how she feels.....I went to England three different trips where I stayed from 4 weeks to a little over 5 months..........I love my grandchildren, daughter and SIL............it isn't healthy to see how they live.......every generation does what they do.......everyone raises their kids like they want to raise them........it doesn't mean I have to agree with their ways.....but they needed someone to help and I am him..........
Baldwin is the actor I use as a standard to judge all despicable Hollywood actors .He is the pits
We watched the original Halloween again tonight. I know it's just a movie but every time I yell "Don't throw down the knife!"
That picture had to come from "his" people.
At one base we had to turn our weapons in to the armory at the end of every shift. An M1 carbine was standard. There was a 55 gallon drum filled with sand to clear it in. There was a twenty plus year staff sergeant supervising the clearing of weapons. The guy in front of me was Willie B Dunn. He had somehow chambered a round and when he pulled the trigger to show it was cleared,it fired. The sound vibrated and sand dust flew out of the clearing barrel. Willie said, I didn't do that. He was the only person with a weapon in the clearing barrel, but he didn't do that. He and the sarge both lost a stripe over it. Baldwin trying to avoid blame reminded me of this story.
Always assuming a weapon is loaded stands as a best practice. Once in summer 1986, a fellow sergeant handed me his surplus Walther P38 he purchased from Giessen Rod and Gun club. I also purchased a similar pistol earlier that week and kept it home. Heck, great deal for $100 for surplus WW2 German Polizei P38 pistols.
He handed me the pistol in an empty barracks room. Because of habit, I pointed his pistol at a wall locker -- NOT an individual -- in a barracks room and squeezed the trigger. Pistol went off. There was indeed a live round in the chamber. This sudden blast represented one of the most startling, unexpected shocks of my life so far. Scared the hell out of me. Luckily, 9 mm slug pierced through the locker and further into a wall behind it. Germans build thick barracks walls. No officers around. No one heard the discharge on first floor. Another soldier located a few rooms down rushed out and asked what happened. We told him a blank round went off as we were playing around. We rushed down stairs and grabbed master keys. Round did not penetrate the wall.
I was lucky. We were lucky. Thought 5 years service went down the drain. I never knew where the Sergeant who handed handed me that pistol obtained a live 9 mm round.
Accidental discharge is extremely serious. I knew a couple folks who were punished under UCMJ for such carelessness the following year. That particular incident happened coming off live fire ranges. An NCO forgot to clear a .50 cal. It went off during a night convoy movement back to cantonment area at Graf. Luckily no one hit or injured. As you probably remember, M2 (Ma Deuce) .cal .50 round is no joke. Sergeant who cleared the .50 cal got busted a rank and the soldier who fired the round lost a rank.

Never watched it. I am not big on slasher movies. You must have a supernatural monster in the movie for me.
A good early morning to all. Was awoken by God's alarm clock...rolling thunder.
More rain on the docket. I love rainy days/nights but we've had enough. Need to dry out a bit.
Y'all have a great day.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 72°F, partly cloudy with 93% humidity. Today's high projected around 92°F, a possible record. Heat relief on the way later this week.
I'm glad Braves finally going back to World Series. May watch coverage tomorrow evening.
Pup seems better every day. She still limps. I walk her around a couple times daily.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Good morning D-League. It's currently 60° and clear here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring a chance of thunderstorms and a high of 70°.
Everyone stay safe out there today.

Good morning D-League. Actually, 6am Monday might be the worst hour of the week for those of us still humping a job, but good morning anyway.
I hope you all had a good weekend -- my daughter and I had a ball chasing ghosts through the Shenandoah Valley towns of Burkittsville, Sharpsburg, Shepherdstown, Boonsboro, Martinsburg and Winchester. We even came home and watched the incredibly silly cable show "The Ghosts of Shepherdstown" and laughed as we watched them chase the ghost of a Civil War Confederate surgeon who was haunting the waitress at a Bakery -- and realized she had sold us a cupcake that day!
Warrior -- Feel free to watch Halloween, and the original is the best. BY now, Michael Myers has been shot probably 50 times, beheaded, stabbed with everything sharper than a spoon, run over with everything this side of an M1A2 Abrams, and blown up a half dozen times, and he is still alive. He's Gold Certified as Supernatural.
Yes, I know 50's well. At Tan My, we had 50 cals in all the towers, M60's in the bunkers and a "borrowed" mini gun mounted on our jeep.
Edit, I forgot to say, I took an M-79 grenade launcher to bed with me every night. It kind of looked like a fat sawed off shotgun to those not familiar with it. I loved that thing for some reason.

Morning Legionnaires!
Bengals actually dispatched the Ravens yesterday to go to 5-2 after being predicted to be dead last in the division preseason. Yeah I know, still early but I believe most were saying they would not win 3 or 4 games this year. Had not beaten the Ravens in the previous 5 games. Would be nice to at least win the division since at the start of the season under Zack Taylor they were 6-25-1. The only 2 losses were to the Packers in over time by 3 and to the Bucs by 5. Both of those teams are 6-1 and they were winnable for the Bengals. Oh and yeah, they beat the Steelers at home already this year too. Who Dey?
Yeah, I realize that with the sequels but, when I see slasher movies and people with chain saws and big knives especially when they move like grandpa Jones, I just get disinterested. I understand that with the knives film makers like to build up the fear as you see the knife up and in the hand for about 5 seconds before it comes down and that many people would actually freeze up and stand there but, it still seems fake (yeah it is but supposed to look real).

Good Monday Morning D-League.
We had an unexpected heavy rain yesterday evening that blew of the Gulf. The pattern is continuing this morning with 90% chance of rain. It is currently 70° and we should reach a high of 80°. Maybe.
I trust all are well and if you are wearing the uniform or making a movie with Baldwin, don't get caught with brass in your pocket and most of all a live round.
I see there are 10's of thousands of more illegals getting rounded up to crash our border. Many are wearing Joe Biden t-shirts. America continues to slide into the mire and no one can stop it. And nobody cares.
