My neighbor smashing his cigarette butt in my ashtray. 🤢
Feels hypocritical, but there it is.
On my table I have a pipe ashtray, one for cigars, and one for cigarettes. For some reason cigarette smokers just LOVE to put their cigarettes out on the cork knocker in the pipe ashtray.
I asked one a few days ago: "Why did you reach over the cigarette ashtray to use my pipe ashtray?".
"The other one was clean."

I finished dinner, putting the dishes in the dishwasher and the leftovers in the fridge, it has finally cooled off enough to really enjoy a nice smoke outside and now I smell a skunk in the backyard. Closed the windows and locked the door to keep the Hell Mutt from getting sprayed again.

The cost of everything these days. Looking into replacing the alternator and battery in my pickup. $375 for the cheaper alternator (rebuilt) $210 for the good battery.
The good alternator on my last truck was only about $160. Smh.

Anywhere up there that rebuilds them? We’ve got a place that does alternators and starters. Once they rebuild them they last at least twice as long as the factory version at half the cost or less.

If there are, I've not seen or heard of any.

For about three days in a row, earlier this week I had a horsefly stalking me every morning as I left for work. He actually only got close to me physically on the first day, but each morning he would swarm all over my truck as if he was trying to get at me while I was backing out of the drive and until I drove away. I haven't seen him in the evenings, but I assume he will bite me eventually because I need to mow and I will be an easy target at that point.
My granddad used to knock them down, grab them while they were still groggy and jam a foot long stem of grass up their backside. They weren't so crafty then, more like an over loaded helicopter.
3 weeks of fencing, and putting up hay for others ( great time), then my first day off I go out to do my own chores and smash my big toe, loose half a nail, and nice cut across the top of the toe. Hate not having someone else to blame
Just got the granddaughter picked from school. Phone rings, the wife starts hollering the house is on FIRE. Jump in the car, get home and it's just a grass fire out by the field. Transformer blew and started it. Waiting on them now.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP) alerted the FDA to the detection of Cesium-137 (Cs-137) contamination in shipping containers and frozen shrimp products processed in Indonesia at four U.S. ports, including Los Angeles, Houston, Miami, and Savannah, Georgia, according to a news release from the FDA.
Enjoyed a fire pit last night with Kim, the dogs, and a glass of sangria. The dogs snuggled under a blanket we shared and were pretty happy. I had sprinkled skunk repellant in the yard earlier in the day in preparation, nothing ruins a backyard experience then your partner getting freaked out by a skunk and going in early. All-in-all it was pretty good, until I stepped in a pile of dog doo and tracked it in the house.
I had picked up the dog dirt before the fire pit, but the dirt don't stop around here.

My next-door neighbor's dog is allowed to run free. Little football-sized grey Pomeranian mix. For years I didn't even realize he belonged to my next-door neighbor. He seems to be legally blind and roams in traffic. I'm surprised he hasn't been run over. Just recently he's decided he likes to poop in my back yard, or maybe I've been lucky so far and it's just taken me this long to be stepping in it while mowing.
Robocalls, I ignore them for the most part then my voice-mail is full. I've talked to them wasting their time and asking them to remove me from their list. I suppose AI can tell me how many times I have to ask them to remove me before some magical thing happens and they quit calling
I know you aren't supposed to answer and most of the time my phone doesn't even ring(only at nap time) but they still leave a voicemail then I get a text about the voicemail. Guess I need to take it up with my phone company. But first I'm going down to the gym to pound that heavy bag.

And it will more than likely be right in the middle of your back where you can’t reach it. That’s where they always seem to get me.

Way more fun than a fly swatter.
A good cigar and the open road solve most problems.

Dang, you @Vision'd that thing, I hope you recover soon.

Glad everybody is good Dave, that grass will grow back.
Glad everyone’s ok, like Randy said there are some plants or trees you should look into planting there now. Maybe @silvermouse or @First_Warrior know
radioactive shrimp. I hate radioactive shrinp

people who pick up their dog droppings, bag it, leave it on the lawn, proving they are conscientious good neighbors but self-centered.
