Well Cody, my young, south western Virginia friend. You've been around here since you were a teenager. But you're not a teenager any more. You keep having Birthdays and you'll be grizzled and gray like some of the rest of us. But for today it is cake and ice cream and a present or two from those that love you. God bless you and yours on this your special day. Happy Birthday!!!

Chris i woke last night to the sound of thunder
how far off i sat and wondered
started humming a song from nineteen sixty two
aint it funny how the night moves
Hard to believe I've been on here as long as I have. Thanks guys. Due to the snow (there's around a half-inch on the ground right now) and cold weather (didn't get above freezing all day), my folks treated me to my birthday dinner yesterday at Applebee's. As usual, I went overboard!
With birthday cash, I'm still trying to figure out what knife to buy on my birthday. As I discover more patterns, it gets a bit more confusing. Currently, it's tied between two Case (Barlow, Shepherd Hills 3318 with punch) and at least one Buck (probably one of the recent 110/112LTs in orange they came out with this year).
Deep in the guts of most men is buried the involuntary response to the hunter's horn, a prickle of the nape hairs, an acceleration of the pulse, an atavistic memory of his fathers, who killed first with stone, and then with club...Robert Ruark
