Overall good Jones

Smoking a brisket but no travel for us.

I won the “honor” of moving my mom from Auburn to Utah and driving 1900 miles in a 26’ uhaul pulling a car. was enough travel for me for a bit.

- Parents died in the 2000-aughts. My heart is empty.

- Easter is a celebration, but my sins are abominable. I'm an a SVP in the Empire in Star Wars talk.

- I'm smoking/slow-cooking a roast. Two of my siblings are joining for Easter. I like one of the two. I have five siblings.


I will fight any one of you. Name the venue.

No you won't and stop stealing my lines about whipping arse. I'm the board bully.


As for Easter I will thank God as much as possible for his sacrifice so that I may live forever.

Baseball is done and not making the playoffs suck. Well our chances at the playoffs are done. Still have 3 games to go but all out of Area/Region. Step son has put up some pretty damn good numbers this year as a sophomore. 1 error in the field let a ball under his glove in centerfield. 3 pitching appearances (he's really not a pitcher). 0.00 ERA with 3 hits allowed in 3 innings. Hitting .435 with 1HR 4 Triples 7 Doubles 8 singles in 46 ABs. .552OBP Played in about 3/4 of our games.

7 Siblings; both parents have passed. And imagine this I'm the peace maker in the family.

Been fishing a ton and this weekend is no different. Ate dinner with the guys last night and fishing lovely lake Eufaula today and tomorrow. Come home Saturday night and probably fish Smith Lake (aka the Dead Sea) on Sunday to get ready for another tourney.

Easter isn’t as big for us as it used to be when the kids were little.

I’m guessing you moved to Baldwin Country like everyone else.

I’ve done about this mileage with the same setup. Alternated cars mid trip because of a blowout in Kansas. Complete shitshow but I made a lifelong friend of a Kansas State Trooper that helped us at midnight to change a flat. The turnpike was so fresh on a summer night that my jack just sank into the asphalt. Fortunately, his cruiser had one with a wider base. Met his wife and newborn back in March and they stayed with us for a night on their way to a family ski trip in Eagle

Alpine — not smoking anything because I’ve got a friend that is in his 60s and has been doing it professionally for decades. If I’m being honest, I don’t even know what he’s bringing. I’ve got a 4 month old so I missed the smoking action

I played CF, SS, and Catcher. I pitched rarely but my best skill was my arm. Couldn’t hit for shite. Average speed. I like to think my baseball instincts were good but I stopped playing my junior year. Biggest regret was not finishing that out. I gravitate toward people that like baseball. I hope my kid does

This is my experience. My Easter holiday went from being family oriented to friend oriented when I got into my later 20s. From hiding Easter eggs to overnight bbq’s and drinking beer

That’s going to change the next few years. It’s bittersweet, honestly. Let us know how the fish bite

That’s an understatement. How’d they both happen?

I’m one of those people that can’t function until my home is in order. Couldn’t handle family while my shite is unpacked in boxes. Good luck

That’s the thing about baseball if they don’t like it you will know.

And yeah shockingly I’m decent at giving advice and calming people down. Plus wouldn’t fight my siblings since I’m grown now my brother and I fought everyday growing up. We’d beat each other’s arse and then my dad would beat us with a belt. He was 16 6’4” 260ish. I was 14 5’11” about 145ish. Fun scraps. I guess that’s why I always carried myself 10’ tall and bulletproof and it only takes whipping a few folks and then most is like don’t frick around with that dude. I have a 27 year old and he did MMA for about 3-4 years in high school. So with him doing it I had to do it for training outside for him. He finished top 2 every event (tournament). He’s the one that hated baseball. Now I just don’t give a shite and think the world has gone crazy so I can’t keep my mouth shut and really don’t care what someone thinks of me in a “virtual” world. Bet anything not 1 person on here would dislike me if they were around me. Well maybe some night if they have their wife with them lol those would be pissed when the wife is asking who the coach is. Hahaha

Thanks Jones for the thread and including Easter. I again will put out that if anyone wants to get closer to God. Turn their life to God I will do everything within my control and ability to help lead you to eternal life. I can’t do it for anyone but can help point people in the right direction and would help anyone day or night.

I drove from Auburn (4 pm) to Laramie WY ( 9:30pm thee we next night to see my granddaughter), with stopping only for fuel, food, and one 40 minute nap. It was a brutal trip but I was determined to get it done as fast as possible. Haha
fuel costs were crazy.

Anyone here ever go to Kansas City, try Joe’s BBQ and their burnt ends, buy as much as you can eat and thank me later.

That’s pretty cool you making a friend from a situation like that.
