Deliveries,,,

most all Twuck’s brake parts came in today,,, Thought I wasn’t getting my hardware kit till Satyrday, but turns out, the P-brake cable is slow walking here,,, either way, Need them all on hand to get the job completed. (NY to GA, and I bet it goes past here to Crittenden KY to come back south,,,, LOL I literally watched a package enroute once, with all its updates; watched it fly overhead three times before it made it to ground travel. Michigan to Atlanta, to Chicago to Knoxville. What ever makes the world go, but I don’t see how they made ANY money on that $6.99 shipping fee I had paid.)

No, I am not working on Twuck tonight. Been a hella long day, doing mind-numbing production line welding at the shop. Pumping out 100+ plated poles for a fence line at a tennis court. No punching holes, just drilling in existing concrete for thunderbolt hold downs. Gonna be a LOT of drilling 1/2″ holes after I weld up all these poles. sigh,,, I have never liked production-like work,,, but I am the welder,,,, Their ONLY welder,,,

I can’t give my J.O.B. away, I try at least once a week and the boys all look at me like, “Yeah, Right, silly old fart!“,,, They see me switch hats on a daily, and they have no desire for that sort of thing

I guess there is a reason I make a bit more rate than they, eh? (Not what I should, but far more than they.)

I don’t believe I mentioned I dinged a finger today,,,, That shit HURTS!!! gonna lose the nail, I can already tell. Hazards of working my trade,,, Much like wrenching has it’s special hazards too. Hurts still, but not enough to slow down my typing here. Just makes me not want to type any words with the letter “D” in them,,, (middle finger left hand, if you didn’t get the memo,,, LOL) I find it funny that I am a righty, but my left hand has most of scar tissue. It tends to be slower about getting the hell out of the way,,,,

Cosmos is in flipping pupper heaven this week. Deer season is in full swing and this week was rifle season. SO far he has brought home two forelegs and one hind(lower, they keep the ham). Stuff that someone (my cousin or his buddy) cut off and tossed his way. The boy absolutely loves that venison, and those deer leg bones are tough enough for a pittie three times his size. My only rule is “LEAVE IT OUTSIDE” Don’t want that shit stinking up the house. He’s been a good boy, SO FAR,,,,

I’m sure he has been getting more than just the legs too. He hasn’t touched his kibble all week. hearts, livers, other parts,,, All dawgie food ’round here. Ya aughta see a Dawg trying to gnaw a lung,,, tough work for even the best teefers.

New bow in. One I signed on for as a tester. Pretty little thing and I do mean LITTLE.

43.5″ tip to tip. 42″ string I can just get it to 28″ draw @ 45#. Wouldn’t want to draw any further as I believe it would hand grenade on someone. Maybe, maybe not, but I don’t wanna find out. Fortunately for the bow, I have a 28″ draw normal,,, And all of my arrows are cut that length.

I need to get to Cousins place and use his Chronograph for a speed test. I can tell its fast, but thats subjective, not a scientific measurement. ( saying it sounds meaner when the arrow thumps is not scientific y’know.) but its so small, I would be happy to use this in the brush, or from a kayak. (not that that last is legal in KY,,, just saying.)

Cosmos doesn’t like it. Like with me grabbing a rifle: he sees me grab this and some arrows and vacates the area. Poor boy is gonna have to get used to things like this.

Anywhoooszits,,, I’m rambling, and not much to talk about, don’t wanna talk about the sanitized Epstien files being released, (and you know they have been ran through the political bleach several times now, since they ARE willing to let them out. Finally,,,) Don’t wanna talk about further decline of an empire around our ears. Just wanna get my working world in order so that when it does falter and fail, I have options. NOTE: things aren’t going to collapse in or implode, they are just gonna keep getting stranger and stranger and things are just gonna get more and more expensive until consumer confidence fails completely. THEN the fun really begins, Look at history for a details of what I am talking about.
