I was the only Boy Scout in the history of Troop 169 (Kaiserslautern, Germany) to be kicked out for criminal activity - drug dealing.
Hell, I had a great clientele - 90% of the troop.

Sorry folks, it's the best I could come up with tonight
A blonde and her husband are lying in bed listening to the next door neighbor's dog. It has been in the backyard barking for hours and hours.
The woman jumps up out of bed and says, "I've had enough of this." She goes downstairs. The blonde finally comes back up to bed and her husband says, "The dog is still barking, what in the hell have you been doing?"
The blonde says, "I put the dog in OUR backyard, let's just see how THEY like it........!

From Daver - Whereabouts (still) unknown
OK Ken here's your damn e-mail, but I ain't gonna tell you I live in the suburbs of Chicago cause I still think you might be one a them innerweb stalker folk. I'm Daver, a laid off construction worker that spends time blogging to fill in the gaps between searching for a job on line. I enjoy mundane activities like long distance target shooting with a Barett .50 cal rifle, hunting deer and turkey with a bow and arrow, and collecting and firing Civil War era black powder field artillery pieces. Oh, and I enjoy watching games rednecks play.
I'll be in Chicago (or wherever you REALLY are) in a week.
Can I shoot your Barrett?

California trout plants update
The following was in the local paper this morning.
I may have overreacted in my posting yesterday. It appears that they will still continue planting in my favorites lake, just not one of the creeks (Angels Creek) that feed into it.
But I'm still pissed.
I'm thinking about cutting down an old growth redwood, pouring motor oil on a duck and shooting a spotted owl just to piss off a fucking hippie.
At Pinecrest Sports Shop, the 2009 trout fishing season already is beginning to look like the big one that got away.
A recent court order prohibited the release of hatchery-raised rainbow trout in waters where they could be predatory to native species. Overall, the central part of the state was impacted less than other regions. The South Fork of the Stanislaus River, which includes Pinecrest Lake, was the only water in Tuolumne County declared off-limits to trout planting.
"It's going to hurt," said Lynn Souza of the Pinecrest Sports Shop. "That's our livelihood up here. The fishing business in the summer makes up a huge part of our business."
No waters in Stanislaus, San Joaquin, Merced or Mariposa counties were affected by the order. In Calaveras County, trout will not be planted in Angels Creek, Schaades Reservoir or White Pines Lake.
The order is not permanent and is likely to change when the Department of Fish and Game completes an environmental impact report on its fish-stocking programs, many of which have gone on for more than 100 years. The study is due by January 2010.
The DFG was sued last year by two environmental groups seeking a reform in the way fish are raised and released. The court order, signed by Sacramento County superior court judge Patrick Marlette, addresses only the need to identify the impact of planted trout on 25 specific native species.
"The court stipulated that where one of the 25 species of concern existed and had not yet been studied and reported on, we had to finish the survey before we could stock those areas again," said Harry Morse, DFG information officer.
Morse added that the fish earmarked for the Stanislaus South Fork instead would be released into nearby easily accessible bodies of water.
"Planted fish make up a substantial portion of the fish that are caught in that part of the river that is open and accessible to the public," Morse said. "But the total impact will be hard to tell because we are moving the plants to other waters in that area."
An unstocked Pinecrest Lake certainly will impact weekend fishermen, but devout angler Nathan Weltmer of Twain Harte expects little change in his regular fishing routine.
"This is the first I'm hearing about this, but it won't affect me as much as the people who are coming up here specifically for the planted fish," Weltmer said.
"I fish back-country lakes, places you have to hike to that don't get planted anyway. But for the average person and for the fishing business up here it will be a big deal."

My day
I'm sorry for not posting more tonight.
It's been a fucked up day.
I was working with Roger today running bread to the different dock doors, a flat balls-out job. I mean, that job keeps you hustling all day.
At one point I asked Roger what stores he had delivered and he started rattling off a bunch of store numbers and the dock doors they went to. Now you have to understand that I am dyslexic and I lost track of what he was saying about 2.5 seconds after he started, so I figured that I would just sort it out myself. When I got to where the bread was staged, he saw me scratching my nuts and said "Damn it, weren't you listening? I told you what the hell to do!"
That tore it. I ain't afraid to box with anybody, so I jumped off my motor and got in his face and told him "Check this shit out, man. You don't get off my ass, I'm going to take a fistful of my mood pills and shove them down your motherfucking throat."
He looked at me for a second and started laughing. "Yeah, like they do YOU any good."
He had a point.
Then I heard that deal about trout planting (see my first post of the day). This year's plants are BATs in 3 years. This just shot my favorite activity right in the ass.
Then I found out my heater is broken again. 2 years ago it cost me $1200 to fix it. Fuck that, I ain't paying that kind of money for 3 months of heat. I'll buy a couple of room heaters this weekend, but in the meantime......
My dog pissed on the floor. In front of me.
And I burned my fucking dinner.
I believe I should just shoot myself, but with my luck I'll get a misfire.

California Agrees To Limit Trout Stocking
Environment & The Green Beat
SACRAMENTO (AP) ― The California Department of Fish and Game has agreed to stop adding millions of hatchery-raised trout to many of the state's mountain rivers and lakes. The agreement was reached between the state and two environmental groups as part of a 2006 lawsuit over declines in native fish and frogs.
Noah Greenwald is a conservation biologist with the Center for Biological Diversity, one of the groups that sued the state. He says the agreement will preserve native species while the state prepares a more comprehensive environmental review of its fish-stocking programs. The deal allows stocking programs in reservoirs that are not connected to rivers.
Jordan Traverso, a spokeswoman for the Department of Fish and Game, says the agreement will go before a Sacramento County Superior Court judge on Monday for approval.
How many reservoirs are there in Kalifornia that aren't connected to rivers? NONE!!!!
Fuck, do they have any idea how much mony DFG will lose? Who in the hell do these motherfuckers think support Department of Fish and Game?
HUNTERS AND FISHERMEN!!!!
100% of license fees go to DFG. No fishing, no license, NO MONEY!!!!
Fucking commies.......

From Jamie - Lodi (Poor thing) CA
Wirecutter!
You actually posted yourself!
Now I'm intrigued. You sound so down to earth and honest.
About myself: I'm Jamie from Lodi (Stuck in Lodi Again), I teach school and yes, I read your blog at work. Shame on me. I found it linked in from Small Bits and Pieces and have been hooked ever since.
I was wondering if you'd like to do lunch sometime. We can even meet at a truck stop if you'd like. Reply to this email if you're interested.
Publish this email if you want, but withhold my picture. I wouldn't want any of my students to know that I'm "warped"!
-Jamie
You just invited me to lunch at a truck stop? Oh thank you God...... My dream girl!
Glad you like my blog and yes, I'd love to meet you for lunch.

Ahhh, yes. From Bendover, Nevada.
I notice you didn't talk shit about Barstow. Not that you could living where you do.
Love your blog, and for those that haven't checked it out yet, please do so. You'll get a kick out of it for sure.
PS Nice boob!
From Bookmole - United Kingdom
Hi - this is Bookmole from the UK. I don't have a life, so I have to live vicariously, through others. And yours is a hoot! Love the Gotta be Califonia pics - please, keep posting them.
Don't know if I would show up on your site meter, though - does it track RSS feeds?
Gotta go cook dinner for hungry peeps now. It's damn cold here, yesterday it rained all day, the day before was foggy. I hate winter!
I remember you! You're the lady that hates big ass centipedes.
You commented several times and I appreciate your feedback.
Stay dry, and stay out of the fog - the boogeyman lurks there.

Rain
It's raining so hard right now that I can actually hear it.
That's saying a lot considering how bad my hearing is from years of gunfire.
It's very soothing, something that I've always enjoyed and I miss it terribly.
Wear your hearing protection when you shoot, folks.

From Wirecutter - Modesto, CA
Top picture: Probably the best picture ever taken of me, taken 2 years ago.
Bottom: What I look like today, although this picture was taken last winter.
Jamie wrote and said that since I asked my readers to tell me a little about themselves, it would only be fair if I were to tell my readers a little about me.
Okay Girl, you asked for it.
My name is Ken and I was born here in Modesto in 1959. My father was a professional soldier, so I spent my younger years traveling all over the States and Europe. I've lived in California, Washington state (twice), Missouri (twice), Maryland, Germany (twice as a youngster, once when I was in the army), Texas, and Georgia.
I've worked as a horse wrangler, in a photo lab, construction, served in the Army (yes, I was honorably discharged) sold weed, worked as bodyguard/driver for a drug dealer, worked at an army ammo plant, and now I've worked at a warehouse for the past 16 years.
My interests are shooting, fishing, more shooting and even more fishing. I also do a fair amount of prospecting. I consider myself a student of Western History, specifically frontier and mining camp history.
I'm kinda sorta heavily tattooed - 21 at last count. I don't consider it a lifestyle, it's just something I started as a youngster and continued over the years.
I am single - married once in 1991 and still going through the process of divorce a year after I filed. I have no children. I don't want any children.
I started blogging in August of this year. I don't remember why I started but I really enjoy it. I like the fact that there are others out there that are just as warped as I am and more than a couple that are willing to admit it.
Okay Jamie, are you happy?
