A bottle of pricey rum that I drank about 90% of last night. Lol

I gave one of my Bammer friends a framed picture of Mike Shula to hang up at his house. He had no idea who he was. I grinned.

You will love the cz, I have two of them and probably have 15,000 rounds down range between them.

Mix you some synthetic motor oil and transmission fluid 50/50. $10 is a life time supply, and lubricate all the moving surfaces.

Mine feels almost hydraulic when I rack the slide it is so smooth.

This.

The older I get the less I care about material things. I'm thrilled to be spending the day with my children.

The bottle of rum was great. But other than having family around and great food, my favorite thing is my new fleece lounge pants and wool socks. Lol

Wife took my 6.7 Cummins and got it deleted and tuned. I can’t believe the difference!

How to know your father in law knows you can't take care of his daughter...when he is financing your broke arse. I would be embarrassed if I was married and a grown man, especially my FIL, had to give me money. You must be a millennial.

Nothing like being a complete a-hole while making broad generalizations without having any details of the situation. Whether he needs the money because his kid got sick or he lost his savings in Vegas, it takes a real piece of shite to write what you wrote.

Thanks gatorhata9 and, yeah, he’s just being an internet a-hole. Most likely projecting in an insecure manner his own situation.

Just to be clear, though, I’ve been married over 30 years and, although I was dirt poor when I married, I got my law degree in ‘89 and have been doing extremely well ever since. My Father-in-law (who is in his 80s) doesn’t give me money because I need it - I don’t. He simply owns some land in the Dakotas and rents it out to farmers. At Christmas time he splits it up between his three daughters (one of whom I married some time ago). His other two daughters married well and don’t need the money either. He’s just a great dad who doesn’t need the money and likes to give what he has - y’know, the Christmas spirit and all that.

Usually he gets annoyed with me because I wait a few months to cash it.
He’s been doing this annually for over a decade now. Last year we used it partly to fund our Alaska trip (we used part of it to charter a plane to land on a glacier on one of the lower slopes of Denali). This year I’ll let my wife use it to upgrade to a better Nikon (she’s an award winning amateur photographer) and maybe buy a new laptop or something. The rest goes into savings.

Now I do have three sons who are millennials, but they are all out of the house, doing well, and don’t need the money either.

I was going to simply ignore BamaSimpleton, but since you were nice enough to slap at him for me, I thought I’d give you the full scoop.

Anyway, ignore the internet d-bags and Merry Christmas,

I got my three kids dirt bikes this year. The bikes plus all the gear = I'm broke.
