Boy howdy, I were cold last night. Only got down to 40 degs, but I had a chill what wouldn't go away.
Got up this morning to a sunrise of some kind. Weren't even look'n. Had my mind on other things....like what I gonna do today. Sure is hard being retired...very hard decisions.
Went outside and worked on fix'n stuff on "da house". This thing has got a trip to go on in right bout 3 weeks. I guess I'll leave some of the little unimportant things for when I get to "the slabs" since there's nuttin to do there other than sit on "yer butt", drink coffee and pester the neighbors. Hope that old "whinny" mustard ain't gonna be there this year. Complained bout everything. Dogs bark'n, neighbors play'n music, cars driv'n by, helicopters fly'n at night, bombs go'n off at the bombing range, generators too loud.....boy howdy!!!!
Tomorrow I plan to break out my high power 1100 feets per second pellet gun and shoot me some dinner. Too many quail in the road could cause and accident or something ya know. Guess I'll have to sight in the scope first so's I don't wound them cute little critters. Now all I got to do is figger out how to clean them suckers.
Today has been a terrible day for the old Billy Bob. Didn't feel like do'n nuttin. Just sit out there on that old porch drink'n coffee an think'n. As much as I hate it, I gonna go to Walmart tomorrow and spend me another hunerd dollar on stuff to eat. Go to the post office and pick up my quick connect Mr Heater hose. Drop a couple thousand off at my broker so's I don't run out of cash on the slabs trip. Boy howdy, I gonna be broke fore I leave.
Oh yeah, I want to thank all them democrats what be sentence me to death in three years. Medicare needs that $500,000,000,000 dollars they gonna use to "reform". But, being an old fart, it ain't gonna effect me that much....other than dying for lack of funds.....sheesh!!!
Bbob, let me know when you and river hit the slabs would ya. I try and make it on the weekend.
ReplyDeleteOGT....I were want'n to be there before Thanksgiving, but it looks like I ain't gonna make it till bout the 29th. I'll be camped corner Rayhound Rd and Chef Roger Rd. (three blocks down from Beal Rd off of Canel Rd)
ReplyDeleteboy ain't nuthing much better than fried Quail,with biscuits and gravy for breakfast.. one question came to mind. is it legal to shoot quail with a pellet rifle? :-) They easy to clean, pop the head off, stick your fingers around the breast under the skin and just yank it off, feathers and all. slice it open along the backbone (and take out the innards,, There you go, ready for flouring, and light frying, but good gawd, don't over cook them.
ReplyDeleteLOL Ben, ya ask me if it's legal to shoot a quail with a pellet gun.....do you think old Billy Bob cares what's legal and what ain't? Out here in the desert, who's gonna know???
ReplyDelete1100 feet per second pellet gun? Holy cow, they are makin those things as powerfull as a 22 aint they. I bet you could get a kill shot on any part of the body. Lots of quail help videos on you tube.
ReplyDeleteIf Im able to come out to the slabs around that time I;ll see you down the road.
I was gonna try to be in Terlingua around T-day.
