I like this time at night on HBT

[Dan]

Makes me sad, because music and the world in general has changed so much since then, and not in a good way.

Man, I know what you're saying.. I think It's hard to know how old your are since TxB took away that mandated option I personally liked it.

Anyway. I agree with what you say. Seems as though you can't listen to music today without a ton of foul language. The "F" word dominates. My youngest daughter never swears, always blanks those words out if she repeats the song. She's 18.

WHy do these kids seem to think it makes songs sound better? I have come to terms with the fact that popular music of today sucks. No it is good, some really good. But they have crossed a barrier of swearing and sex that we didn't .. We probably said the same things, just a little more subtle.

I don't judge anymore. I have had to many trials in my life where I was wrong to have a wholehearted opinion on what is proper or improper. I haven't lost all track of reality.

Here is a song my daughter introduced to me. MIght sound teenageiss but not to me. I like this kid, Trevor Hall.


Please give it a chance before you dislike it BB.

I was staring at my airlock and it popped out and struck me in the eye. Now I'm blind, but only in one eye and I can't find the airlock. Luckily I have several extra.

Not sure where the commune ended up. Right here? I'm trying to make some butter but the cow won't cooperate.

This always makes me think of someplace warmer as well.

I can dig that! I would have definitely gone to that show, and not in any way because it was almost exclusively beautiful women

 

[BobbiLynn]

I have been staying young myself, year after year I turn 39. Used to be 29 until no one believed that story, so I upped the ante.

 

[Dan]

I'm hooked on Warehouse 13

 

[snaps10]

I watched every episode for the first few seasons. Can't get in to it now though, missed too much. I've been hooked on Breaking Bad lately. Don't know how I missed it.

 

[BobbiLynn]

Hey guys, I'm trying to relax and have a homebrew. After waking up in the middle of the night in a panic. Sorry about any rude comments I have made. Things aren't right in my life. Hubby really sick, scared. But ready, bring it on life, I'm ready for you. I don't know how much time is left. Moderators can delete all my comments so as not to upset anyone. The family is keeping me away from the hospital so as not to upset other family members, so I get it.

 

[Dan]

BobbiLYnn. Nobody here is going to abandon you. In a weird way we are feeling your pain. You're our sister. We'll be here for you.

My thoughts exactly.


And this is exactly why this thread is how it is and is as busy as it is every night. And why it's so different from the taproom.

 

[Varmintman]

Yup you know it it a weird deal for those of us north of 50 I think that spend time in forums. When we say something in the forum we mean it simply because we were raised for the most part with out internet and learned to communicate face to face.

Not saying that we are better than the younger folks but that the younger folks have learned to communicate with people in a vastly different way. Heck maybe it is better in a way to live on line but for me I like the social interaction of people. I will pay more money for a product and spend time and fuel to get it from a store where I can talk to the people rather than buy it online. Seems as if a vital part of life is missing when you live online.

Glad to see you back Dan.

Yup I feel the same Bobbi.....That and I want to hear how possum tastes

No range for me today, we got kicked back because my driver has a .38 and the old wheel gun guys are only supposed to go in the afternoon. It was worth a shot, oh well!

Bummer man. Been thinking I need to get some trigger time myself but after the last snow storm there is not a chance in hades I can get to my range short of snowshoeing and I know that will not happen.

I got a 100 yrd range in my pasture behind the house I could use I guess but I rather go out and go long

 

[CreamyGoodness]

It really is interesting how two people, even people who get along just fine and might even have a lot in common can have totally different lives. Its been over 13 years since I fired a weapon and longer than that since carrying one from state park to state park hootin' and shootin' was a part of my life. Some folks, guns are a part of everyday life. Its just interesting.

@BobbiLynn, we are rooting for you. Best wishes to you and your hubby.

I'm 38 in hexadecimal. No one says you have to use the decimal system.

 

[Airborneguy]

I pretty much have one on me every waking hour, or at least within an extremely close vicinity.

Well I'm home now from my little pointless jaunt to the Bronx, and since I'm not at the range I pretty much have nothing to do today. I'm thinking I might take a bath.

 

[Airborneguy]

Speaking of ages, I hate that the new profiles don't list our ages any longer. I used to check them for perspective whenever I needed a little extra information to understand where someone was coming from with one of their posts.

 

[CreamyGoodness]

Not to mention I can think of 2 twits right off the top of my head who are (Im hoping) underaged. No adult who hasnt sustained massive bluntforce headtrauma should be that stupid and still moving.

 

[Varmintman]

I enjoy trying to figure out the age of some of the posters by how they post and the meaning of their posts. When the post looks like this "whn r u" I pretty much just assume it is a younger person.

At the risk of angering some folks speaking politics I have found the younger people are less likely to even listen to a opposing view. It seems that with age comes the knowledge that not one view works for many people. This often rears its ugly head with brewing as well I have noticed.

Apparently you haven't met some of the people I work with. I keep telling management they need to stop giving drug tests and start giving IQ tests when they hire new employees.

 

[CreamyGoodness]

Well... depends on the issue (not even politically, interpersonally even).

There are a few hot buttons where I am utterly unwilling to listen to the argument, because I know what a crock of nonsense is coming. Others I have more wiggle room to talk.

 

[Airborneguy]

I wish that was the case at every job.

 

[CreamyGoodness]

We've all done and said stupid things. Rubbing my eye with a hand that had been handling jalepenos was one of my finer moments.

But there is a noticable difference between a smart person doing a dumb thing and those people who have a hole in their thought processes.

I'm not a grammar nazi, and I dont mind some misspellings (I do it too) but if you really want to troll me, post something inflammatory and fail to articulate your point using the English language.

My wife came up with a good saying. "I can deal with a sweet idiot (everyone loves a black lab) and I can deal with a smart *******. I cant stomach an ******* who's an idiot"

 

[Varmintman]

I think the thing that kills me is the reluctance to listen to any other view since it worked for my dad and it will work for me.

I am a legal guardian for a severely retarded aunt and care giver for her. Mentally she is about 6 but physically 70. One would think that it would be easier to ignore what she says all the time but I have learned things from her that have helped me in my life. I believe that no matter how weird or different the view you should at least listen and think it through before blowing it off

And yes some things get blown off much faster than others

What I like are the folks who have been able to lie to themselves about who they are and what they believe.

So let me get this straight <Name redacted to protect the guilty> you have expressed a fear of African Americans and you "don't believe" in interracial marriage... do you really have the balls to tell me you arent a racist?

 

[Reelale]

So, Reelale. Do you plant anything out there or just select for the food plants that are already there?

It's just a pilot project to see if this could be an ongoing viable forest management practice for these particular training areas. Initially they wanted to plant, but they agreed to the pilot project.

I jumped in here during the possum adventure, so I didn't know about this. Hoping everything is ok. Best wishes for you and yours.

Watch the political talk...

 

[CreamyGoodness]

My bad.

A good dose of life would go a long ways with that person.

I wonder though if it is a generational thing. My parents and in particular my dad was against mixed marriage. Because of time in the Army though I changed my views that I learned as a kid from my dad. Now I have raised my daughter to look at what a person is and does and not the color of the person.

Sadly there will always be a core of racism, religious intolerance or glass over plastic to name a few in the world. Simply because such behavior is taught and the cycle goes on.

Hmm maybe the internet is a good thing to teach tolerance since we have no idea of a persons ethnic background when they post. I would love to see a racist get some good info from the person they are racist against and then find out

Dangit those are my views and you all better agree or be ready to assimilate:rockin:
