Hey Jim, is a barley pop the same thing as a brewsky?  By the way, I'm sitting here looking up in the sky for Kevin to wave when he flies over. :Doh!

One in the same! just put a couple Leinenkugel Summer Shandies in the freezer, looking at the grill thinking about a couple brats for lunch, better get out those 300 power optics to catch Kevin!

Boy, it would take me a while to learn your vocabulary on the west coast. It's cool but this dog ain't up to any new tricks. And I don't think that seeing Kevin thing is gonna happen.

Between work, nasty weather, house fix-em-ups, and never ending honey-do lists I never got to pull trigger once this past August.  Just shamefully despicable.  Dang.  And now we'll be up in Maine for most of September.  I swear I had much more time for the fun stuff before I retired back in '97. Grrr.

Anyhoo, just heard from my nephew Kyle that he bought and finished a Kibler Fowler in 16ga, fancy maple too.  He's chompin' on the bit to baptize the boomer but his work and weather ain't cooperating.  I gave him my bottle of Kibler iron nitrate and he did a super job on the finish, I've gotta go see him and snap some images to post.

SWMBO = She Who Must Be Obeyed, a phrase used by the lead character in "Rumpole of the Bailey" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rumpole_of_the_Bailey) in reference to his wife.

I hadn't realized it was being used anymore until a day or so ago, when I saw an Internet post from a woman who was so mad about the demeaning  phrase that she ended up divorcing her husband.  Strange, and maybe clickbait.

Kees, it was used on the forum the first 10 years or so on a regular basis, I believe that Uncle Russ was the first guy to post that!

What's that address again, Beav?  Sounds like I might want to be dropping by for some feed. :P :applaud :applaud

OK Jim, there you go again. So if you're wondering what I'm doing, I'm looking at Jim's post trying to figure out what some of those things are. But instead of asking you for an explanation, I'll ask SWMBO to explain what some of those things are (she's much smarter than I am). :luff:

Oh DRAT!!!!
That sounded like a pretty good meal.
So for lunch I made chicken stir fry with mushroom fried rice.
For dinner, we went out and had shrimp and chips, only salad instead of the chips.
I ate pretty good today anyway.
