And wouldn't you know it, a seriously cool ass banner makes its way to me. Peep it out up there. Big thanks to Gothling for that.

The urge itches at me again

I'm a bit peeved at myself for letting the Briar County Blues blog die. But I guess it was inevitable - I am a lazy bastard after all. It nearly worked too, before other annoying issues got in the way.

More whining ahead, if you wanna read it...

Can Hugh Jackman measure up to this?

I apologize for the iffy (and tiny) resolution here - I didn't scan this it was sent to me. This is entirely tacky, BTW.

Don't read this

I have pretty new chonies on and you are so jealous.

This is so wrong, looking at it should send you directly to hell

I'm getting a nice drunk on tonight. First time in quite a while actually. Bacardi Big Apple with generic lemon-lime soda - I'm on #3 right now. This stuff is actually better than Apple Pucker because it's not quite so sour on my stomach.

The bottle is half empty. That isn't a pessimistic statement, it's a progress statement. Goodbye rum.

Fuctup

This little confession got me seriously giggling. People post the weirdest shit on that site.

We have 13 cows now - just got 2 more little peanuts this weekend. The herd has eaten the back yard down to nubs, and the big field is nice and green and ready for pasture. Well, except for the whole fence thing.

We drove around the perimeter to find out why the fence wasn't as hot as it should be, and discovered that the stupid bindweeds out of the roadside ditch are so thick that they're taking over the hotwire. This means spraying. We bought some jugs of Roundup and a lawnmower battery, filled up the sprayer deal in the back of the pickup, and I walked the edge of the field spraying weeds. I suppose I should be happy for the exercise at any rate - at least it wasn't difficult or anything.

We got the majority of it this weekend. You have no idea how much friggin' spray it takes to get the fence line of a 40 acre field. We're figuring on checking it out on Wednesday to make sure it's all wilting and spot spraying any bastard weeds that didn't have the decency to get a lethal dose the first time. If it all works out the cattle will be out in the big field by next weekend.

The United had a sale on Ben & Jerry's, so of course I had to go apeshit and stock up the freezer. Their selection was kinda blah, but there were a couple flavors I figured I just had to let you guys know about, just in case you have not yet tried them.

Dig in...

Ooo pretty

Got tired of that plain brown wrapper look and decided to update the look around here. Of course, I've been wanting to do this for a while, but that plain look was the only acceptable template that Tripod had in their list. Yes, I'm too lazy to figure out how to make my own blog style thingy. This one is called 'Camo' and I think it looks pretty zippy, even if the dividers are goofy little lines of stars. It would be nice to have some sort of Random Commentary banner at the top, but we'll survive without it. Remember - too lazy to do it myself.
