    So I'm getting old...

    But I'm still better looking than Thumper....
    So today I have to be at BPS at noon. I come up early and there is a restaurant called Sticky Fingers right beside the shop. They open at 11 and I can eat and then go on in.
    I get there a few minutes early and go in and order. I'm the only person in the place. About the time my food gets there a couple comes in with two crumb-crunchers about 7 and 8, both boys. And with about 50 open tables in the whole place the gal sits them in the booth right beside me.
    Now both the boys are yelling like they are across the hayfield from each other the whole time. Then the Michael Jackson song ABC,123 comes on the speakers and both the boys get in the isle between us and start dancing and jumping around to the point they hit my table a couple of times.
    So instead of saying anything I break out my trusty iPhone and Google Eddie Murphy RAW and find the video and cut the speakers wide open.
    Needless to say Mom and Dad got up and moved the hell raisers across the place. Dad gave me a glance as they were moving and I said "don't say a GD thing to me bud"
    It would not have taken much for me to have gone postal...

    You got my sorta luck, Cap....I can be at a restaurant, or on a plane, or in a movie theater, or in a doctor's waiting room, etc., etc., and I swear either some squalling young'uns or some obnoxious loudmouth azzhole is gonna sit next to me....never fails.

    The only time I didn't mind a squalling young'un, sitting next to me on a plane, was on a flight from your neck of the woods in Charlotte to Memphis....just after takeoff, the kid's good-looking mom flopped out her left hooter, which nearly landed and rested on my right arm, and began breast-feeding the young'un....the kid shut up instantly....I put on my sunglasses, and "acted" like I was taking a nap, but I gots excellent peripheral vision.

    On our last trip back home from L.A. there was a bitch sitting behind me who refused to let me recline my seat. Hey, at MY size, I HAVE to recline. Heck, nowadays the f'ing airlines make the seats 9-inches wide and only give you 1-1/4" to recline anydamnway. BITCH!! I paid for that frigging inch and a quarter ... I'm gonna use it! Every time I tried to recline my seat, I could feel her plant her knee into the seat back and push forward. By the end of the flight, I was about to cold-cock the twat! Luckily, it was just the short leg from Atlanta to Tampa, so I let her live.

    I actually try and look who's sitting behind me. If it someone 6 4 or better I don't recline...luckily I am almost always upgraded and first class at 5 8 is plenty of room.

    The last time I saw Bucky, he was pruning treetops on his property, with a 12 gauge....the squirrel just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

    I surely miss Bucky. Yep he was a curmudgeon at times and got bent out of shape but he also added a lot of thoughtful conversation to this place. On issues I never thought his opinion was developed in a vacuum and felt he'd thoroughly read up on most issues. Right or wrong he brought valid points to think through.

    I can agree with that. I'm positive he reads but I have no way to verify that other than my incredibly acute intuitive skills.

    Bite me Bucky!

    Somebody just needs to post a pic of some big ole hooters, and then wait....I'll guarantee he'll make a post, and tell you whether they're real or not....he's smart that way.
