    Getting old sucks

    Since we seasoned Surlyites are gentlemen, some might like to use one of these fancy doodads as a walking aid instead of the usual stick or aluminum Medicare cane. https://borispalatnik.com
  2. Yes, it is legal elephant ivory. 1,000 were made. Those commemorative Colts were originally priced @$1,836 (not so clever marketing IMO), but by the 1990s some examples were selling for about half that amount. Now the prices have crept up I don’t care much for the gold embellishments except for the backstrap.
  3. I paid about $2,000 OTD for mine (with factory wood case) about 15-20 years ago

  5. I thought everyone gets a mulligan?
  6. The parking lots at the Round Rock Dell campus are mostly empty whenever we drive by there weekdays. Or maybe everybody who doesn’t still work from home just Ubers in?
  7. Legendary, like the Gap Kid from Tech.
  8. He could write his Master’s thesis on all the Arby’s posted in the IPIHB forum.
  9. Am surprised the aggy didn’t saw off those wings on the emblem.
  10. I thought that’s what mail carriers carried on their rounds.
  11. Nephew knew that once a dog tastes that goat, it won’t stop with one or two. kinda like chips. Heartbreaking it was for sure.
  12. Nah, that incident I mentioned was in the Texas Hill Country.
  13. My nephew was a career cop. He shot his own dog after a neighbor told him it killed a couple of his goats. About that same time the dog ran up to them wagging his tail, but with goat blood still dripping from his bloody muzzle. Nephew, who had just returned home from his overnight shift, pulled out his service Glock .40 and shot his longtime happy pet between its eyes.
  14. So, that’s what my 1960 Roadster engine bay was supposed to look like! Wowzza!
  15. Yeah, after being passed down through 4 previous generations of family. It is actually a “fowling piece” (shotgun) about 12 gauge.
  16. "varsity's arm off"...what the University of Texas used to be called. Seems back in the day colleges used to have Varsity and JV and Freshman teams just like high school? I could be wrong on that, but in any case aggy is stuck in their leather helmet junior varsity mindset. Fixed dat.
