The last pic fits the GSers best.







It's a big fat lie, just like everything else GSers say.

Well the fast n slim 07 goes to the shop Monday morning. Discount Tire's insurance co sent me a check and set me up in a rental. Enterprise will pick me up at the body shop. Wonder what fabulous rental car I will get. I am sure it will be more powerful than my C6......right?......right?

Enterprise gave us a Kia Soul while the Cadillac is in the shop. A Prius backed out of a parking spot and hit the Cad in both right side doors.
It's easy to get around town and easy to park, but.....what a piece of crap.
Ask any veteran what KIA stands for and then ask yourself if that is something you want to drive.

I worked on a KIA once, I'd rather get a vasectomy without anaesthetic again than ever go through that BS

When staying in rooms with 2 beds, we simply use one for sex and the other for sleeping. Never waste an opportunity that presents itself.

Are you sure you're in SC (South Carolina) and not BSC (British Southern Columbia)?

We're getting a bit of a chill here next week, when the highs will dip down into the lower 70's. Hopefully that won't last very long before it warms up to the normal 75-85 range.

This. No one wants to sleep in the wet spot.

Calling for a low here of 17 on Saturday morning, which would be a new record low. I will be freezing in a deer stand.

Probably true but I bet it won't be in as good of condition as mine is.

Last rental I had was a 20,000 mile Camaro that shook so badly it was work to keep it on the road. Funny I did not feel bad about returning it after I hit a skunk. It spent the last night outside it smelled so bad.

Seems they don't do any maintenance on the rentals here. Just replace them if something goes out of whack.

Out of whack is the definition of a GSer, whereas being in whack is a baser. Comprende?

Don't have a box blind up yet. Just bought one a month ago, too late to risk putting it up and changing the deer's habits. It will be going up next spring. Will likely never use my Buddy Heater in it as just being out of the wind and enclosed will be enough to keep me warm.

Robert,
Snowing here (Washington too) but so far only accumulation is on the grassy areas. Calling for up to six inches in some areas. Maybe you could extend your little vacation another week. You know how the roads and drives will be.
