According to what I've read, he spent one year in the USMC. So that tells me he was a shitbag washout.
Not finishing your first enlistment is a waste of the recruiters' time, the drill instructors' time and especially the time of the leadership at your first and only permanent party duty assignment. Not to mention, a tremendous waste of taxpayer money.
As a 1SG, it was very frustrating to deal with turds that have to get chartered out as s9on as they show up. Even doing a "simple" Failure To Adapt" discharge was a pain in the arse.

Big Tex
I have a 14' double axle and a 28' gooseneck. Solid, well built trailers. I had a lesser brand, HD brand out of Powderly, TX, a 18' car hauler and it wasn't built nearly as well as the Big Texs.

Because they know there would be consequences.
Act like a fool in the NBA and you lose your golden ticket salary. The WNBA doesn't have the will or ability to police their shitshow, so the players don't fear punishment from the league.

Paul's Valley sucks.
Arbuckle Fried Pies are decent.
For the best--stop in Ardmore at Hamburger Inn. Their breakfast and their burgers are some of the best you'll find. I'm dead serious. I used to travel the I-35 corridor from Gainesville to OKC and innumerable amount of times.
Hamburger Inn is the truth.

Yeah. I lnow I'm probably not suitable for mass consumption.
But by damn, we have borders and I am willing to enforce then even if our fedgov and judges aren't.
I've been all over this world and been deployed to every shithole there is. I won't let the land of my father's and my grandchildren become that.. Not while I'm still kicking.

I was deployed to Bosnia and Kosovo in 1999.
One thing i learned about while over there was "The Sarajevo Safari". Maybe we need to come up with something like that.
Just joking. Maybe.

Good job.
I tell everyone to plan and save for an early retirement. I pulled the plug at 45 years old and not looking back. Retirement life is awesome.

I dont fly unless it's international.
I don't work, so I'll gladly do a 2-3 day drive with my 10 year old bulldog and go mybown pace. Every damn time I've flown domestic in the past few years it's nothing but delays and hassles. Plus I don't want to deal with 90% of people.

Hell, I even get a lot of enjoyment out of prepping my hand tools. Flattening the back of chisels, flattening plane soles, using the David Charlesworth ruler trick for prepping the back of plane irons. Then using my Shapton ceramic stones for the primary bevel then a really sharp secondary bevel.
Slice through paper (or wood) clean as a whistle. Listen to some music, smoke a j and getting hand tools stupid sharp is good relaxation.

Did you see that saw on Facebook? It recently popped up for me on marketplace. There is also some chisels.
No I didn't. I ordered it new from Lie Nielsen. I had been using a Japanese Dozuki for dovetails, but I really like my Lie Nielsen tenon saw, so o decided I wanted their dovetail saw.
I assume youre talking about Marketplace somewhere in Louisiana and I am not around that area.
I would definitely buy a used LN dovetail saw and chisels if the plate and teeth weren't all hacked up and as long as the chisels were used properly--backs properly flattened and a straight, uniform primary bevel. But i have so many chisels it's crazy. I have a set of Narex Richters, some Veritas PM-V11s,and some Lie Nielsens. And then a set if mortise chisels, fishtails, skew chisels and a corner chisel.
I have some Lie-Nielsen and Veritas hand tools I've never even gotten around to unboxing months later. I know I have a Veritas scraper plane in a box, a Lie Nielsen dowel plate and a rabbet block plane still in the box. I need to order a Veritas spokeshave the next week or two.
I think i might have a problem.

Yes, but I'm the one doing the disappearing.
I use my scoped 10/22 with CCI segmented hollow points to send them to the happy acorn plantation in the sky.
Those rodents can live in my woods, but if they venture into my 5 acre mowed homesite, theyre marked for death.

Honestly, he's the spitting image of 90% of Texans i encounter in the DFW metroplex.
There are so many suburban girly men running around McKinney, Plano and Allen areas that it blows my mind. I have to go down there to buy hardwood lumber and for the airport.
North Texas is overrun by jeets, mooslims and skinny jean suburban figs.

I chose to err on the side of retiring early. Who knows how long I'll live and I definitely left money on the table, but I live a stress free life and I wouldn't change it for anything.
re: Woman wins massive settlement after bladder mistakenly removed during surgery
Posted by El Segundo Guy on 7/30/26 at 10:06 am to MKP2004
I have a friend's father that had surgery at a hospital in Louisiana that I will not name. They were supposed to remove a cancerous kidney.
They cut the kidney, but did not remove it. They did however remove an adrenaline gland. They left the kidney free floating in his abdomen.
A few days later he had abdominal pain and went to ER and they found out his unattached kidney was still inside. He had to have an emergency second surgery.
The Louisiana doctor begged him not to sue. Said "I'm a good baw and have never made a mistake like this before. I'm so sorry. Please don't sue."
I'd sue the ever living piss out of all of them, but as of now he has not.

I hope they overtake all of Spain. Couldn't happen to a better country. I hate Spain and maybe it would be a lesson for the rest of Europe that is actually worth saving.
