The Men of Trooper York Calendar Project

SIxty Grit sent this photo of a family reunion down south this past summer. So I think we should use Sixty and his brothers as our collective Mr. August. Because you know because of Honey Boo Boo hillbillies are hot, hot stuff.

You can guess which one is Sixty.

The Dude said...: Give me a hint - I plum fergit which one is me!; October 16, 2013 at 5:56 PM
ndspinelli said...: I think Sixty is in the wooded area w/ a bead on the skinniest guy..wants to show off his marksmanship.; October 16, 2013 at 5:59 PM
The Dude said...: Which is quite good, I might add...; October 16, 2013 at 6:05 PM
The Dude said...: Sumbitch stole muh overhauls...; October 16, 2013 at 6:07 PM
chickelit said...: Only one of them appears to have something lathe-like protruding.; October 16, 2013 at 6:34 PM
Icepick said...: Of course, for me, I can see where this is heading. My only hope is that he runs out of months first.; October 16, 2013 at 6:56 PM
Michael Haz said...: Are those his brothers Forty and Eighty?; October 16, 2013 at 7:12 PM
The Dude said...: Honest to God I did introduce my brother to a friend as "This is my brother Darryl". Much hilarity ensued.

But I like the way you think - had I a smooth brother he might be 320 grit or something like that. Sadly, I am down to one brother now and we are both pretty coarse.; October 16, 2013 at 7:16 PM
ricpic said...: You can't fool me! That's the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem.; October 16, 2013 at 7:42 PM
ricpic said...: Didn't I say Sixty looked like Jack Elam? But who knew he had a weird shaped yellow pecker too?!; October 16, 2013 at 7:46 PM
ricpic said...: Sixty's twin brothers' arms only swing free at mealtimes. Sometimes they vary "the pose" by crossing the arms over the chest with the fingers tucked in the armpits. It's a form of testifying. Something about Sherman's march to the sea...; October 16, 2013 at 8:00 PM
Ron said...: I should be...hmmm....Slim Pickens!

I know you're thinkin' Meatloaf...or Gleason! I accept this...; October 16, 2013 at 8:08 PM
Icepick said...: Ron! How goes it?; October 16, 2013 at 8:11 PM
Ron said...: Things could be better, Icepick...I'm barely hanging on.; October 16, 2013 at 9:56 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: had I a smooth brother he might be 320 grit or something like that. Sadly, I am down to one brother now and we are both pretty coarse.

Spent some time with an old guy named Fred Courser. He said something one day...I forget what it was but it made me kinda stop and look at him like "holy shit". He gave out with one of those old man chuckles and said (in his backwoods farmer almost Maine accent) "boy, my name's Coursah, not finah."; October 16, 2013 at 10:27 PM
Icepick said...: Things could be better, Icepick...I'm barely hanging on.

This is distressing. Anything good coming down the pike? Or is it all shitballs all the time?; October 17, 2013 at 12:11 AM
blake said...: Hey, no steppin' on my turf.

I'm the Jack Elam here.; October 17, 2013 at 12:17 AM
Evi L. Bloggerlady said...: If you get the mustached guy in this and a Trans Am it would be Smokey and the Bandit! And with a canoe and a banjo, Deliverance.; October 17, 2013 at 2:36 AM
Michael Haz said...: Trooper, thanks for keeping the politics off of your blog. It's good to be able to go to a blog where the commenters aren't throwing shit at each other because of what goes on in DC.

That mess over at Lem's is just the same old same old, including an appearance by what looks like a fake Titus. Actually sounds like Altnose trying to sound like Titus.

Anyhow, thanks.; October 17, 2013 at 8:19 AM
ndspinelli said...: On occasion I like to keep an eye on our favorite LPN. In the Ted Cruz thread @ TOP she talks about having "lived w/ a physician." Quite a change from being married to one that died and how he was the love of her life. Or, am I reading too much into it? That's not a rhetorical question, I would like to know your thoughts.; October 17, 2013 at 8:45 AM
Michael Haz said...: It's never difficult to be consistent when one is truthful.; October 17, 2013 at 8:49 AM
Cody Jarrett said...: Mr. Haz: I almost think everyone here is of the same mind, more or less, about politics anyway. Probably not the details, but the big picture stuff, so there's a lot less of that stupidity possible anyway. AFAIK there's no one here like phx to just blindly blame and insult a certain group, say.

Mr. Spinelli: I think you might be reading too much into it. Then again, it's Inge, so who can say.

Did you ever look, did she actually get her full RN and the Masters at Marquette like she claims, btw?; October 17, 2013 at 8:59 AM
The Dude said...: Really? I thought we had beat the subject of Meade's butt boy Crack, Titus, Inga and Althouse to death. Can't we just leave them dead? Even I grow tired of the repetition, and you know how much I like to mock those smarmy walking cliches.; October 17, 2013 at 8:59 AM
Cody Jarrett said...: EPR, I'm curious about something I read you say: "you true conservatives disappoint me".

What are your beliefs? I sorta thought you were in the conservative slash libertarian crowd.

No biggie, just curious.

Thanks.; October 17, 2013 at 9:02 AM
Icepick said...: Nick, you are reading too much into it, mainly because you ate reading her at all. Ignore her unless she intrudes on your space again. If she does, squash her like a bug.; October 17, 2013 at 9:05 AM
Icepick said...: Evi, don't get us started on Smokey and the Bandit again. That way lies madness!

And Cody, I can't get that song out of my head, damn you! Now I've got to watch that I don't start in on it at the grocery store. You're clearly number one on the asshole polls now.; October 17, 2013 at 9:10 AM
Cody Jarrett said...: On the other hand, EPR, don't bother pretending to answer, better you just ignore my query completely.

I'm not sure I'm in the mood for another bout of you nibbling around the corners and never actually providing a simple answer.

And I want to make it clear that it's my failing and not yours, of course.

Thanks.; October 17, 2013 at 9:10 AM
Icepick said...: Cody, I believe he's disappointed that people like me have given up on the Republican party, and won't keep supporting them no matter what. He believes that we just have to keep pushing and pushing to get what we want.; October 17, 2013 at 9:13 AM
Ron said...: Things could be better, Icepick...I'm barely hanging on.

This is distressing. Anything good coming down the pike? Or is it all shitballs all the time?

It's way past shitballs bad...I hesitate to say how bad it is. I can't decide whether to post about it on my blog, (Fluffy Stuffin, for those of you who want to give Althouse Amazon money, give it to me instead...I need it!) or to just say nothing or only to respond in email to people (you too, Trooper!)

I'll take opinions on this... but suffice to say, things really stink.; October 17, 2013 at 9:27 AM
ndspinelli said...: Icepick, I'm under complete control and I think I've shown my ability to handle folks. I'm just gathering data and asking the good folks here to help me process it. I do acknowledge my bias, but believe me, there is a method to this process, on different levels.; October 17, 2013 at 9:28 AM
ndspinelli said...: Cody, I've not checked the alleged Marquette degrees. That would take time and money, which isn't warranted @ this point. She has never gotten an RN license, that's for sure. So, if you don't get an RN license, you are not an RN. You can get a juris doctor, and not be an attorney.; October 17, 2013 at 9:31 AM
Icepick said...: Nick, I never doubted your self-control, I'm just recommending that you avoid the aggravation. However, if you have a method, you need to go with that. I don't really have an opinion on your direct question, though, as I don't really pay attention to her biography, or the manner in which she parses things. To me, she's batshit crazy and boring, and I try not to think of it past that.; October 17, 2013 at 9:34 AM
ndspinelli said...: Icepick, And I totally understand and respect your stance. That was mine until she threatened my wife. That was a big mistake.; October 17, 2013 at 9:43 AM
Icepick said...: Ron, I can't get to my regular computer at the moment to get at your email, so I'll just leave this here:

Unless you want to protect your privacy, I don't see why not posting to your blog. Let me know and I'll put up a pointer to it at Ambiance assuming you don't want to do so yourself. May as well try and drive some traffic to your Amazon portal.; October 17, 2013 at 9:52 AM
Cody Jarrett said...: That sort of begs the question then--why get the RN degree or the Masters and not register it or whatever they do.

Because that's like just getting a PhD so you can put "Doctor" on your checks.; October 17, 2013 at 1:18 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: I won't continue to support the Republican party.

I know I'm a little late to the party--but I won't do it. My support has only encouraged them to behave badly. I thought I could support them and work within the party structure for change. But it ain't workin'.

So screw it.; October 17, 2013 at 1:20 PM
Michael Haz said...: Cody, perhaps she lied about being a nurse. I think that is what Spinelli was observing.; October 17, 2013 at 1:21 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Haz, that's what I said.

She claims to have been a nurse. Nick found she appears to have only been an LPN (nothing wrong with that, but it's not an RN).

Nick mentioned it. Other people mentioned it. She responded that she had been an LPN but she went to Marquette and did her schooling and got her RN and her Masters (MSN) and invited him to verify that with Marquette.

So I asked him if he'd done that. He says he didn't, but that she never got her RN license. If she never got the license, that pretty much proves she was lying--because why get the Masters if you're not even going to use the RN.

Which is what I said.; October 17, 2013 at 1:29 PM
Michael Haz said...: 10-4.; October 17, 2013 at 1:38 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Breaker one breaker one I may be crazy but I ain't dumb Craaaaaazy Cooter comin' atcha!; October 17, 2013 at 3:11 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: So there I was...about 45 minutes from home, in a high traffic area (hate it already)...and suddenly...no brakes. None. All the way to the floor.

Smart person would've stopped on the side of the road.

Not me. Oh no. Wild and reckless is how Ma raised me.

Was an interesting trip home though.; October 17, 2013 at 3:17 PM
Darcy said...: Wow. Glad you're home safely, Cody.; October 17, 2013 at 3:18 PM
chickelit said...: ndspinelli said...

It's licensure issue. Spinelli is completely correct. Plenty of JDs fail bar exams and so cannot use the the title "Esq" after their name but they can use "JD" for example.

For nurses, the "RN" means that a licensure exam was taken and passed. It's possible to get an MS and even a Ph.D. in nursing and still not be an "RN."; October 17, 2013 at 3:24 PM
chickelit said...: So there I was...about 45 minutes from home, in a high traffic area (hate it already)...and suddenly...no brakes. None. All the way to the floor.

Downshift!; October 17, 2013 at 3:25 PM
chickelit said...: In chemistry, their is no licensure. There are just degrees. I'd be happy to send Spinelli my transcripts though, in case he has any doubts. :); October 17, 2013 at 3:27 PM
The Dude said...: BOOTLEG TURN!!! YEE HA!!!

In keeping with the spirit of the subject of this post.; October 17, 2013 at 3:28 PM
Michael Haz said...: I own a copy of Sky Pilot, but I'm not a pilot.

Cody - In your truck?; October 17, 2013 at 3:28 PM
chickelit said...: Oh and Cody, to alleviate your wondering at 9:02 about my politics--and Haz is right, political arguments don't fly here--I am at heart a Palinista. But I made the decision to support Romney in 2012 because he seemed to bring along enough moderate Republicans to bring a better chance to the ticket. It's essentially what Bill Whittle argued doing after the primaries and before the general. I was heartened when Romney chose Ryan as a running mate because the latter was closer to my views. Romney was a compromise, but hey, real life is full of compromises.; October 17, 2013 at 3:35 PM
The Dude said...: It's been over 40 years since I have experienced the pedal to the floor thing, that was in a '51 Chevy panel truck that had a slow leak in the brake line. I pulled over, topped it up, pumped the pedal a few times, went on down the road. Commuting can be trying at times, but you have to be tough.

But that was long ago, long before dual brake systems and whatnot. I would like to know more about the nature of that failure - type and year of the vehicle, what failed, and how the steady handed pilot managed the situation.; October 17, 2013 at 3:37 PM
chickelit said...: In chemistry, their is no licensure. There are just degrees. I'd be happy to send Spinelli my transcripts though, in case he has any doubts. :)

I would want to redact my student ID number though because many schools stupidly used SSN's as student ID numbers.; October 17, 2013 at 3:37 PM
The Dude said...: No need - we already know it.; October 17, 2013 at 3:38 PM
chickelit said...: What are the last 4 digits, Sixty? :); October 17, 2013 at 3:39 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Chicks:

I wasn't aware we couldn't discuss politics at this site, since the blog owner posted a political post the other day and we had over 100 replies to it.

Furthermore, I wasn't trying to have a political argument with you, I was just curious where you were coming from. Thank you for answering me, I appreciate it.

As to Inge--I realize she'd have to get the license, and that just a JD doesn't make you an attorney and all the rest of it. In case you didn't notice it either time I wrote it out though--my point was that it seemed silly to me for her to have gotten a MSN if she wasn't even going to license herself as an RN, which would make me wonder about her claims.; October 17, 2013 at 3:41 PM
chickelit said...: It used to be that the first few (3 I believe) digits in your SS indicated your geographic origins or at least where you filed for one. I remember pissing off an Althouse commenter because I noted that Obama's indicated a Connecticut application which would have been typical for someone filing from NYC.; October 17, 2013 at 3:42 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: 06 Expedition. Automatic transmission, making downshifting a less enjoyable and reliable means of stopping.

Driver side rotor and caliper both junk. Must've sheared the line, there's some fluid on the tire and a little on the body.

Just left extra space between me and the vehicle in front. Did drop it into second and once into first when I needed to really slow down and what was left of the brakes weren't enough.

I've never been one to drive with my brakes, unlike most of the people I know. My grandfather taught me to drive in a controlled, smooth manner, that helped.; October 17, 2013 at 3:45 PM
The Dude said...: I hear that, Codes - my pick-em up had nearly 100k miles on it and I decided to replace the disc brake pads - bought new ones, pulled the driver side caliper and what the hey - the originals weren't even half way worn out. I replaced them anyway - figured they, and the truck, will outlast me in any case.

EPR - I was kidding, but as a guess I am going with "0666".

And you are correct about "Obama's" SSN - he is president asterisk, and if I am going to follow my own advice, I'll leave it at that.; October 17, 2013 at 3:56 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Yeah. My Expedition is fast closing on 90K, I figure it's due for stuff to wear out.

And I should probably go find something productive to do anyway.

LOL.; October 17, 2013 at 4:00 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: oh and 1978 for Chick's SSN.; October 17, 2013 at 4:01 PM
The Dude said...: 1960 - Wisconsin. He's a cheeser.; October 17, 2013 at 4:02 PM
chickelit said...: Good guesses Cody and Sixty as both of those numbers are age-related.; October 17, 2013 at 4:18 PM
MamaM said...: Did no one notice there were a few of those wearing red sox last night that bore a strong resemblance to Sixty's pards in this picture? The pitcher with the mix of long and short beard hairs was an eye catcher. Just when I think there's nothing new in the world of fashion for men.; October 17, 2013 at 5:40 PM
ricpic said...: Well, now my fridge is on the fritz. Can the freezer fail and the regular fridge part not fail? That seems to be the case. My meats! My beautiful meats all gone soft. How long does a defrosted meat last? I'll find out soon. Anyway, the appliance repair guy'll come tomorrow and either fix it or tell me it's a lost cause. I'm sorry Troop, bitching and moaning about small potatoes like this, but when the roof fell on you that was you, now a pinprick is happening but it's happening to ME!; October 17, 2013 at 6:27 PM
The Dude said...: Follicular!; October 17, 2013 at 6:44 PM
Michael Haz said...: Bar-be-que at ricpic's place!; October 17, 2013 at 6:46 PM
chickelit said...: @ricpic. I don't have the buttcrack bone fides, but yes, I think they work semi-independently; October 17, 2013 at 7:02 PM
The Dude said...: Anybody heard from Trooper today?; October 17, 2013 at 7:15 PM
chickelit said...: He's been over to Lem's...; October 17, 2013 at 7:33 PM
The Dude said...: Just did some research and saw that - he's slummin' it. Hangin' with the degenerates.

He needs to get back over here with the beautiful people.; October 17, 2013 at 7:41 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Seems like I saw "Sixty" beside a coupla comments over Lem's Lack Of Levity.

Jus' sayin'.; October 17, 2013 at 7:49 PM
chickelit said...: Dan Aykroyd: Refrigerator Repairman; October 17, 2013 at 7:52 PM
The Dude said...: Oh yeah, I do ever so much like Lemp's place.

Now I must shower.; October 17, 2013 at 8:07 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Did you remember to bring a winsome 15 year old Dominican boy for Lemper?; October 17, 2013 at 8:15 PM
The Dude said...: No monger am I.; October 17, 2013 at 8:20 PM
ndspinelli said...: There were states that had your SS# incorporated into your DL#. Some just did away w/ that not so long ago. "You want a SS#, I can get you a SS#, hell I know guys who can get you a SS# this afternoon."; October 17, 2013 at 8:34 PM
Palladian said...: Did you remember to bring a winsome 15 year old Dominican boy for Lemper?

Make it a 20 year old Dominican boy and I'll take him.; October 17, 2013 at 8:51 PM
chickelit said...: I detect Blogger slut shaming.; October 17, 2013 at 8:57 PM
chickelit said...: And you are correct about "Obama's" SSN - he is president asterisk, and if I am going to follow my own advice, I'll leave it at that.

It implied one of two things: either he never a worked a real paying job until he got to Columbia U or he officially became eligible then somehow.; October 17, 2013 at 9:06 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Dearest Chickster:

Please stop dumping all the nice fresh bloody chum in the water.

Thank you.

--The Sharks; October 17, 2013 at 9:22 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: And btw--I had an SSN almost literally from the day of my birth. Most people I know were much the same--within the first couple of years at the latest.

Dammit, Janet.; October 17, 2013 at 9:27 PM
Evi L. Bloggerlady said...: Fake Nurse? What a surprise, she is a liar.; October 18, 2013 at 12:05 AM
Evi L. Bloggerlady said...: If Honey Boo Boo made Hillbillies hot, I guess the same could be true for Little People, Big World making midgets hot.

Or maybe it was Game of Thrones.; October 18, 2013 at 2:00 AM
Cody Jarrett said...: Midgets are always hot. Like that chick from boston legal.; October 18, 2013 at 7:29 AM
Cody Jarrett said...: meredith eaton is her name. I always forget it. She was great in that guest spot on House, where she played the part of a midget.; October 18, 2013 at 9:23 AM
ndspinelli said...: Playing a midget was not a stretch for her. Fred Gwynn played a midget and it was an incredible performance.; October 18, 2013 at 10:05 AM
Icepick said...: Nick, playing a midget wouldn't be a stretch for anyone.; October 18, 2013 at 10:11 AM

I hope he didn't fall off the wagon and sneak out to Marco Polo.; October 18, 2013 at 10:54 AM
Ron said...: Icepick...please email!; October 18, 2013 at 11:10 AM
Michael Haz said...: Trooper has a life outside of his blog. He probably has higher priority things to do now that he's back on his feet.; October 18, 2013 at 11:12 AM
Icepick said...: Ron, I've lost your email address. You can email me at

stabmaster(dot)icepick(at)att(dot)net

I'll send you my regular email address after that.

Sorry, I haven't been at my computer the last couple of days and I've been doing everything on my phone, which just isn't as functional. (Nothing beats a real keyboard.); October 18, 2013 at 11:25 AM
Cody Jarrett said...: IIRC we're still well inside the enforced rest period that was talked about. I think it was about today that he was suppose to be able to use his left arm more isn't it?; October 18, 2013 at 12:21 PM
chickelit said...: I think it was about today that he was suppose to be able to use his left arm more isn't it?

I can imagine a lot of pent up uses for that arm.; October 18, 2013 at 12:34 PM

Oh Puh-leez! That's right up there with speculation about a "fake Titus". Unless there's a fake fake Titus.; October 18, 2013 at 2:29 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: I could be a nizzle, you don't know.

I mean, not your nizzle, but a nizzle.; October 18, 2013 at 3:32 PM
Icepick said...: I could be a nizzle, you don't know.

Fo' shizzle my person of unknown nizzleness.

Doesn't quite roll off the tongue, but the idea of it makes me laugh, thinking of what Crack's reaction would be, LOL.; October 18, 2013 at 3:35 PM
Icepick said...: Too bad The Shizzolator is no more.; October 18, 2013 at 3:37 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Besides, can't everyone basically be a nizzle?

Crack said the other day that if you put a group of white kids and black kids together in a week all the white kids would be all up in the yo yo what up shizzle.

Apparently he never heard of Carlton Banks.

Jus' sayin'.; October 18, 2013 at 3:41 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Heh.

Stabmaster Phunky Phreshpick.

when I want milk...I buy it by the cow-owww; October 18, 2013 at 3:46 PM

Icepick said...: Besides, can't everyone basically be a nizzle?

I thought that was one of the major outcomes of the George Zimmerman trial, but Young Master Trayvon's girlfriend seems to hold a minority opinion (a-HEM) about the meaning of the nizzle complex of words.

when I want milk...I buy it by the cow-owww

Now you're not only winning in the polls, but you're just running up the score.; October 18, 2013 at 4:10 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: I dunno Phreshpick. It's like someone took the asshole right out of you lately. I mean, you had that whole big exchange at Lem's Litterbox the other day and you were calm and reasoned the whole time--at least all I read.; October 18, 2013 at 4:14 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: So, Sixty, that DVD of Roy Underhill season 6 (or 5?) came. I'm going to see what the heck a folding lathe is.

Maybe it's specially constructed to be easier for rectal insertion.; October 18, 2013 at 4:16 PM
Icepick said...: I mean, you had that whole big exchange at Lem's Litterbox the other day and you were calm and reasoned the whole time--at least all I read.

What? Which one was that? I deny this as unwarranted slander!; October 18, 2013 at 4:18 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Yeah I'm just as surprised as you to see me type that.

I forget. It was one of the more serious discussions. You were writing multi-paragraph responses and such.

Might have been the same one that made me ask EPR what his political bent was, whatever that was about.; October 18, 2013 at 4:24 PM
The Dude said...: My close personal friend Roy Underhill - I must always mention that whenever his name is brought up.; October 18, 2013 at 5:11 PM
Icepick said...: Oh, that was probably when I got into with Ritmo over the debt deal. I decided to drop the topic before it got any further, because it was clear he had no idea what the fuck he was talking about (as usual, in my experience), and there is no point in discussing financial regulation with ignorant partisan halfwits who can only confirm they've found their ass with both hands if they get a talking points memo from someone in charge.; October 18, 2013 at 5:16 PM
Icepick said...: My close personal friend Roy Underhill

Anyone else thinking this is secret Tolkein nerd code between Sixty and Cody?; October 18, 2013 at 5:19 PM
blake said...: I figured it was that or an oblique reference to '70s film directors.

(That may be a #jokesonlytrooperwillget thing.); October 18, 2013 at 5:21 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Ha, Icepick.

It's why I avoid those kinds of conversations: I don't really understand it beyond a superficial level myself.

Sixty, are you also close personal friends with the lovely and talented Eleanor Underhill?

She's quite the banjo picker/singer. And she's a lot prettier than her father.
Plus she's a talented drawing artist--she's done the illustrations in at least one of his books.; October 18, 2013 at 5:31 PM
ndspinelli said...: Sixty, I took a tour of the Louisville Slugger factory. It's not a big facility and it is a great tour. They have their own forests in western Pa.; October 18, 2013 at 5:39 PM
KCFleming said...: I have never looked as good as Sixty or his kin does in that photo.

Being a marsupial with a bifurcated penis, and pantsless to boot, well that makes me prime calendar material.; October 18, 2013 at 5:53 PM

Cody Jarrett said...: I have not seen hair or hide.; October 18, 2013 at 6:21 PM
Icepick said...: Something I meant to post a couple of days ago, when these posts went up.

I didn't actually recognize the guy in the picture of the Bagoh2o post. I thought maybe it was John Holmes, but that wasn't it. (I don't really know much about 1970s male porn stars.) So a quick search of names led me to Harry Reems. So, search the images and see if I see the one Trooper used.

(Do I really need to mention that any links won't be safe for work? Yes? Okay,

NSFW!)

But a couple of pics to the left of the one used by Trooper (fourth row down, and no doubt Chip Ahoy would point out that it is the mirror image of the one Trooper used) I spotted another pic, which I think is even better for a pic of Bagoh2o: THIS is the guy that shows up at the party butt naked, drunk & frisky, asking "where's the Jacuzzi?"

Perhaps Trooper can raise more money doing both PG and R rated calendars.; October 18, 2013 at 11:54 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: Two hillbillies walk into a restaurant. While having a bite to eat, they talk about their moonshine operation.

Suddenly, a woman at a nearby table, who is eating a sandwich, begins to cough. After a minute or so, it becomes apparent that she is in real distress. One of the hillbillies looks at her and says, 'Kin ya swallar?'

The woman shakes her head no.

Then he asks, 'Kin ya breathe?'

The woman begins to turn blue and shakes her head no.

The hillbilly walks over to the woman, lifts up her dress, yanks down her drawers and quickly gives her right butt cheek a lick with his tongue.

The woman is so shocked that she has a violent spasm and the obstruction flies out of her mouth.

As she begins to breathe again, the Hillbilly walks slowly back to his table.

His partner says, 'Ya know, I'd heerd of that there 'Hind Lick Maneuver' but I ain't niver seed nobody do it!'; October 19, 2013 at 12:00 AM
Icepick said...: LOL, that's good Cody, but do hillbillies eat in restaurants?; October 19, 2013 at 12:03 AM
The Dude said...: Is it time to be concerned yet?; October 19, 2013 at 4:56 AM
Icepick said...: Is it time to be concerned yet?

Not yet. That time will be roughly noon today. If he had appointments yesterday, that may have tired him out a bit, and there may have been a change in medicine, which can really wipe someone out. (I went through this with my wife after out daughter was born, so I'm speaking from some experience.); October 19, 2013 at 7:19 AM
Evi L. Bloggerlady said...: Troop's goal is to have you contribute to keep yourself out of the calendar! With the right photographs, that Italy goal might be met sooner than he thinks!; October 19, 2013 at 9:30 AM
ricpic said...: Well, I'm sittin' here waitin' for them to deliver the new fridge. Repair-guy said it was probably the compressor that died and no way to guarantee how long a new compressor would hold up and he didn't feel right about coming out and charging me $65 to tell me that (nice of him) so I high-tailed it to Lowes all anxious because I only have like 29" of space to fit a new fridge in but sure enough they had lots that narrow and told me the reason is the big student population around here, all those tiny student apartments need tiny fridges. And that's another installment in the continued harrowing adventures of ricpic. Oh, your life is more exciting?...NOT.; October 19, 2013 at 12:26 PM
ricpic said...: Glad to see Pogo popped by again. More often, poss'm.; October 19, 2013 at 12:38 PM
The Dude said...: Okay, it is close to 2 PM EDT - where is the Trooper?

Hey Spinelli - use your mad skillz and locate our host, okay?; October 19, 2013 at 1:53 PM
Michael Haz said...: The man has a business to run, and some catching up to do. He'll be around when he can.

Besides, he'll need to rest up to watch the 0-5 Giants get whipped by the 0-5 Vikings. A man has to prepare for that.; October 19, 2013 at 2:10 PM
Evi L. Bloggerlady said...: The G men should play for next years draft at this point...they won't of course, but they are so disfunctional right now it is possible.; October 19, 2013 at 2:26 PM
MamaM said...: The man has a business to run, and some catching up to do. He'll be around when he can.

The man also has a pattern, and when he doesn't run true to it, questions are raised. From my POV, noting his absence and showing concern for his well being is a healthy and compassionate response, given the fact that he's still moving through the early days of recovery and medication adjustments.; October 19, 2013 at 2:56 PM
MamaM said...: Speak of the You Know Who and a yellow bird appears!; October 19, 2013 at 3:09 PM
Michael Haz said...: Where?; October 19, 2013 at 3:36 PM
MamaM said...: On the head of this post! Where else?; October 19, 2013 at 3:39 PM
MamaM said...: On the head of this post!

Correction: "On the head of this blog!" would be more accurate.

This marks the second time Sixty's sense of something off has been confirmed. As much as this place is about fun and games, the real stuff that goes on under the surface is what gives it heart.; October 19, 2013 at 4:29 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: This business of us not being able to mention concern from our host is starting to grate upon my nerves.

Jus' sayin'.; October 19, 2013 at 6:15 PM
