8 if you know people who do flintknapping there is a good trade going between the people that have the rocks and the people who have moose, elk, and deer antler. the base of an antler, properly rounded, is the exact right consistency to do very precise cleaving of the flint (or in this case, obsidian). while rocks can work, they don't have the right bounce to them and you can easily hit too hard.
also, whitetail and mule deer points are perfect for grinding, where you would put a notch to bind the blade to something.
#8 Obsidian, which will have an edge that can cut you, and you literally won't know until you see blood. I've worked on flint a bit, but never could get the hang of breaking off thin flakes.
#2 - typical Durango Hemi owner. Can’t afford the payments so it gets repossessed, then he steals it off the tow truck, in the process damaging two other people’s cars who had nothing to do with it beyond the misfortune of parking next to a Hemi driving mouthbreather.
That little boy! I do wish more of the pros would give to the fans! I know it's a high stakes environment, but wouldn't being nice and interact for a few seconds also help relieve the tension? Yesterday there were several pros giving balls to little kids - the reactions were pure joy and amazement. And you don't have to give a ball to everyone - just a fist bump or "Thank You" and eye contact is nice! I remember Doug Sanders (shows how OLD I am) having his ball lodge in the BRA of a MATURE LADY. She was just laughing so hard and when he GENTLY turned her away from the camera and SOMEHOW emerged with the BALL, EVERYONE laughed and cheered! I think he then autographed her!! Lee Trevino was always entertaining and he won plenty!! It doesn't take much to make someone's day - or night!
#9 Everyone I know that rides has stories like that. Most say the car driver will look right at them and pull out in front of them like they weren't even seeing them.
I noticed how quick that motorcycle distanced itself from the rest of the traffic. Normally, I would side with the bikers, but that shithead would best go sign his organ donor card - if anything is left that isn't pounded into hamburger.
#9 Why I would never ride a motorcycle on city streets or highways. When in high school I knew two people that happened to. One died, the other, after a 3 month stay in the hospital had to wear calf length lineman's boots for the rest of his life for ankle support. Uncle Dave

#1 is cool, but how did he get the claw vertical to begin with?
ReplyDeleteHe's not installing the claw, he's just switching it around.

#4 Watching the brides reaction to the bridesmaid photo bomb; the lucky man may have gotten a keeper.
ReplyDeleteThe bridesmaid was chasing the flower girl?

When I was a kid I thought I had found some obsidian. Turned out to be dried tar hard as a rock.
DeleteWhat a beautiful rock.
DeleteI've got one about that size in my cabinet of kool shit.

ReplyDelete#10 - Rory won the old Wachovia Classic (now Wells Fargo) in Charlotte when he was 20, so he just got sauced at Quail Hollow Club.

I've got a plate the length of my right femur, & a knee about 8" wide, full of screws. Left-turn driver. I still ride, though.

Sure, Budd. Collect the whole set.
