Evenin' target.

I hope I just have a regular cold. I'm not tasting my beer. I'm keeping my distance from the granddaughters just in case.

Just found out that the oldest grandson got expelled from school for the rest of the year because he came to school with a knife in his backpack. His dad says a strap broke on his backpack so he borrowed one from his dad's stepdaughter (who is in jail currently). I'm not buying it. I think it's more likely that he took it to school to show his buddies or something. Either way, it's a bad situation.

Sorry to hear that DD.

When I was in high school I usually had a pocket knife.

Pocket knives, guns in the car/truck... it's a different world today Greg.

I like our world better.

Me too! No school shootings, things were settled with fists (if "things" happened at all). Hell, the last time I was in a fight was when I was about 12 or 13 years old and that was with a complete stranger while on vacation out west with my family. I don't even remember what precipitated it. Just another kid with whom I'd had a disagreement I think.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

I was usually the one stopping fights when I'd go out to the bars.

And this will cost him a half a year in school.

There was a knife fight my first day of highschool.

Me too, that's how I got my screen name (before diabetes and a 60lb weight loss). Sux getting old!

Exactly.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

I know I've mentioned that I'm happily childless, but these "grandkids" are gonna be the death of me. So far it's just been the boys though!

We had hunter safety classes hosted at the school. During 7th grade gym class we shot skeet and tried archery. Many upper class men carried buck 110 on their belts. Different era different area.

Every time I attempt to make an epic post, someone trips over the power cord.

INGO finally came back on.

How long was it down for? I was off for a couple hours and when I came back INGO wouldn't load. Tried a couple times and then it loaded, must have been just when it came back
