I have a bad-ass machete from Tops for the vines and 1/4"'s.
Ticks on the other hand, fucking love me. Nasty little fuckers.

Chorizo and eggs are still an excellent way to punished what's left of last nights's beer binge.

Re: Random thought of the moment.
Too funny. I know what you mean. When an opening for a specialty job opens here (motorcycles/detectives/EDU etc) they state that you have to send a full resume to apply for the position. I can still hear guys saying, "Resume? I fucking worked here for the last 15yrs. You don't know who I am or where I work?" Ridiculous amounts of redundant paperwork.Lunch wrote:Cover letters? Really? Does the real world require optional cover letters as a part of an application package? Forest Service has changed the application process once again...might be an easier process, but hell if I know what they're looking for now.
