The post whore thread.

I want to leave a book review on an Allen Drury work of fiction. Do you think "unnecessarily wordy as shit," is too succinct?

I get so frustrated by authors like that....that I avoid them. I can understand trying to 'paint a picture' or 'set the scene', but sometimes it seems like they're trying to impress by just rambling. Maybe their publisher wanted a certain number of words?

I should get a beater that's really good on gas mileage...something I can drive on our shitty dirt road and not care about. One more thing to license and insure, right?

Just switch plates.

We're suppose to be, the Red Neck Capitol of AZ. Why throw a wrench in the works?

Sure, but I've never owned a car that I don't give a shit about, it might be kinda fun....lol.

Drive it till it is dead.

I did that with a couple of cars...but they were my only transportation so I still cared.

I do understand the attraction to having a 'beater' that you didn't have to worry about.

Right ! I'm going to do a little research and and find the best "riding" models and see if I can find one at "Bob's Used car lot" for a couple grand. Need some test drives though, buyer beware and all that.

If you've never seen a baby lizard (about an inch total) running around in your garage at 100 mph, it's pretty funny.

You go from "wtf was that?"...to "I can catch it".

I did get him back outside without hurting him, couldn't believe how quick he was though.

The spouse found about 1/2 doz of them running around the casita.
Certain times of the day, by the reloading room & bunkhouse. You hear what sound like someone tearing short strips of paper. If you look up you'll see a few of them chasing each other around the cross braces of the overhang.
Hopefully for as many as we have, they'll keep the ants in check .

The wildlife down here is a trip sometimes. Saw a momma Gamble Quail followed by like 10 or so little-uns the other day, it was cool.

I'm glad the dog was kenneled for the night when I saw the lizard, or she would have knocked a bunch of shit around trying to get it.
