ALRIGHT!!!
I’m taking her hunting!!!
I went to Camp Highlands in Saynor, WI. What a great way for my folks to ship me off for 2 months 3 summers in a row. I literally turned 7 there. I’ m sure it contributed towards my “lone wolf” approach towards life. We had Army and Navy for the teams there. On the flip side, I was the only 8 year old once I got home (2nd year) that could un-swamp a canoe. My son wants to go to Woodward.
my thought for the day?
Hello trainers. Look at your Pokemon, now back to mine, now back at your Pokemon, now back to mine. Sadly, they aren’t mine, but if you stopped using lady scented rare candies to level them and switched to training them like a man, they could battle like they’re mine.
Look down, back up, where are you? You’re on the S.S. Anne, with the Pokemon your Pokemon could battle like. What’s in your hand? Back at me. I have it, it’s a masterball with two of that Pokemon you love.
Look again, THE POKEMON ARE NOW SHINY!
Anything is possible when you train you pokemon like a man and not a lady. I’m on a Rapidash.
^ That was pure awesome. 
ok the black widow living on my porch seems to have gone away. i haven’t see her in a couple weeks.
but tonight i come home, open up the screen door and there is a fucking copperhead laying there 
that’s two of the most poisonous things in the south i’ve found on my patio 
How did you get him out of there?
i chopped it with my skateboard.
soup?
we caught a copperhead
now we’ve got something for dinner 
watching Seinfeld, the episode The Airport…I’m pretty sure Kramer’s car has a Steal Your Face on the hood, you can only see the upper part of the hood with the camera angle, but I definitely see the lightning bolt part… 
Did you ever drive down a local road that you’ve driven hundreds of times before and consciously push your perception of it as if it were some place you’ve never been before, some place you don’t recognize at all? Have you ever made the familiar unfamiliar by force of will?
you are correct sir.
Yes, I have. I find it very interesting to view things in the way an outsider would. Sometimes I realize the things I find normal are in fact quite odd indeed.
I once used a “Jedi mind trick” to distract and disorient 2 police that were converging on my buddie’s beach house on Folly Beach, S.C… I had lit off a 3" triple-report firwork shell that made a 20ft explosion on the road. My party and I were leaving as the police were walking into the compound. Cop: “There is a problem here.” Me: “There is no problem here.” Cop: " There is no problem here." Me: " You are doing a good job." Cop: “Thank you.” Me: “I’ll be going now.” Cop: " Yes. You must move your car. It’s illegally parked." Me: “I’ll do that. Good night.” “Cop: Good night”. This all happened while I was walking past the 2 cops. I saw one peek his head out the compound wall down the road towards us, but we were 3 blocks away by then.
Ahhh. Fall, 2002 in South Cackalackey. Bocce and fireworks at 3 .a.m…
TOO MANY COMICS?
^no
I love this. I have done something similar, not really sure how to describe it. But a lot of the time, when I’m driving around Asheville (or Birmingham, actually), I wonder what it would seem like to someone who had never been there. Asheville it’s a little odd because it’s such a tourist destination, and I feel like people have expectations when they come here. But in Mountain Brook, the area of Birmingham I grew up in, it is incredibly beautiful, especially during the Spring, and I always think of how gorgeous it must seem to people who are from out of town visiting relatives. The beauty of it is increased because a lot of people probably have low expectations when they go to a place like Birmingham, so it’s always awesome to see them realize how wrong they were all along. And to bring this full-circle, I had that effect in NJ once. I had never been, was expecting very little as far as natural beauty, and was very pleasantly surprised. I don’t recall where in Jersey I was, other than that it was in central Jersey. It was a very nice place, very verdant, beautiful neighborhoods. I really liked it there, and I wasn’t expecting that I would.
