Johnny,

Maybe you can track down a genuine gurkha knife to add to your growing collection.

For those not familiar here's a link for the knives.

It took me awhile, but I knew that I had these somewhere.

A pair of "Blood Letting Knives" from my collection.
They were purchased several years ago and came with a Certificate of Authenticity.

They were once a part of a set similar to this...

Folks,
The "food fest" continues!

Tonight at work, I found out that everyone was to receive a turkey for Thanksgiving!
That bird is sitting upstairs in my Landlord's refrigerator right now.
(Don't have room in my 'fridge!)

Looks like I'm gonna cook this weekend!

Also heard that we'll all get a ham for Christmas!

Nom, nom, nom!

Best,

Scott
 

Just talked to my Landlord and offered the turkey to his Brother and their Family but he said that all was taken care of.

OK.

He then suggested putting the turkey back in the freezer before it had a chance to thaw and we'd deep fry it in his deep fryer sometime later.

I said, "Sure! I've never had deep fried turkey!"

We then finalized plans for Sunday for me to buy him lunch and to go shooting. :headbang:

I have a couple few boxes of ammo to spend familiarizing myself with my newest pistol. :coffee2:

I may spend Saturday shopping for a wheel.

Best,

Scott

Investigating requirements for my Bachelor's Degree, I see that I have 60 hours of Credits to complete.
Most of each class equals 3 credit hours. That's 20 classes!

AND 3 Internships!
Each Internship requires a minimum of 150 hours.

You know that I'm seriously dedicated to do this.
And, I WILL do this!

I will start with 2 classes this Spring Semester.
And the first Internship.

Yeah, Gonna hit the ground runnin' hard!

I ain't saying that it's gonna be a "cake walk," but, I think I can do it!
I'm SURE that I can do it!
Because it is the greatest passion in my life!
To continue to "Serve" by helping my fellow Vets!

Y'all have a great weekend!

Best,

Scott

I haven't been camping even once this year.

I'd sure like to go for a few nights before I renew my Academic pursuits...

Perhaps, I may find the time to greet the new year on top of a mountain, one that I have not yet explored,
giving thanks for the fortunes that I have been blessed to enjoy and the opportunity to help others to see the blessings and opportunities that they too can enjoy.
Perhaps....

If not,
I'll surely spend time at a local organization,
helping to serve Holiday meals to those who are less fortunate than I.

You know that my ruck is packed and ready at any moment's call....

Best,

Scott

So,

Which do you prefer?

"Dirty Harry" or the "Pale Rider?"



Me?
I guess that I like a good western. :thumbsup:

I have several hundred VHS movies; Many are westerns.

Perhaps I'll hook up my VHS player and watch a Clint Eastwood western this weekend, and enjoy some boiled peanuts!

But, let's not forget the John Wayne Westerns!

And so, 2GF,

What line of "Treasure Story" have you come up with for the "Booty?"

Don't be so quick to give up the treasure....

Sometimes the search is more exciting than what is found....Dig?

Let me search about my collections and find other swag that I can send to you to add to the treasure.

In the meantime, are you giving any clues?
"Pieces" of a treasure map?

I think that I can supply a "Map" of clues, as such....
One that appears to be old, burnt on the edges, on yellowed paper and cryptic of history from the 1500's.

I think that I even have a small "Treasure Chest" around here somewhere that I can send to you...

I have a small leather pouch that I made,
by hand, probably 20 or more years ago, with drawstrings, that I will send that the coins can be held in.....

Looks old enough, don't it?

"ARGGHH!"
"Tis Skillet's Loot!"

"Back in 1492,
Me mates and I sailed the ocean blue.
We had treasures and swag enough.
Me clues to the booty aren't just a bluff!"

"We raided and pillaged ancient shores,
And we always looked for treasures more.
We took no prisoners but yet,
We took all that we could get!"

"Fighting other pirates from Tripoli,
They were sent to the bottom of the sea.
Let it be known from here on now,
Fight with Skillet and you will go down!"

"My fine lads, home is within sight,
We'll be there later tonight.
Soon we'll be safe and all is right
We sail again tomorrow night."


Yeah, I think that I'll send some ancient coins also your way!


Be Well, Brother!

I bought an electric blanket tonight to ward off the chill of the fall nights...

Time to enjoy the warmth!
And a candy bar!
Yeah, I'm not hard to please....

Good night, my Friends!

Time to "fly" to a pleasant dream!

What Treasure doesn't have jewels including a ruby?

An item that only a pirate would appreciate!
