Who is gonna do it? Ha ha! I did it before I can do it again....life goes on🤔
Who's gonna do it?? You did it before an you can't do it no more. Your horsie ran in the Kentucky Derby. Don't expect him to run like that again.

Tellya whut. *I* <-- Me! Will clean it off for you. Free of charge. No. For a big Marley.

Tyche is buds with me (look him up). I am so lucky that I can make that solemn promise above... and I know it will come true.

That snow will be gone real soon, even before I get there.

There is nothing like smell or the sound of music from the past to reach right down in and grab you by the fucking heart. That shit happens to me all the time, the older I get it, seems like the more emotional I get. Sometimes even a lost dog announcement will get to me and make my ass cry. :cry:
Gloria Gainers song I will survive puts me back at the dining room table coloring in my Empire Strikes Back coloring book. I was trying to stay in the lines of the Bubba Fett portrait when my mom cranked that song up and her and my sister started dancing and singing loudly to it, into wooden spoons. I can actually see it all and feel that startled emotion that turned to awe and joy watching them.

And yes, as calloused as I am, I have moments where the need to let out a cry will overcome me.
Ya - where music triggers this sort of emotive response is hard to deny or avoid - I'd say virtually impossible - as was the case with myself this morning - and it took me completely by surprise 😮 - for at a younger age - although I have felt a twinge or two over past romantic liaisons that went sour eventually - with songs 🎵 and tunes from those times that meant alot to me - and the gal I was involved with at that time - never have I felt it as strong as it was today - and could well be attributed to older age - come to think of it - so perhaps its true - that us old farts get more easily emotional - as we age - and are more susceptible to having a good cry - than we would have been in decades gone by -

Bought a crossbow but it was defective(I thought Barnett was a manufacturer of merit). Looking for a replacement.
@oldfogey8 -- I have a couple of nice crossbows. If you are thinking of shooting rats, you will not need a crossbow equivalent to 155 howitzer power. <-- Beasts are best for hunting, since loading them is tough and you get tired quickly target shooting multiple times.

This one is a whizzer. Easy to load, and with the telescopic sight, you will never miss a rat. And it has been marked down from list $305 to $190:

Music brings me back to many parts and times of my life.
I have a song for everything.

A few pages back crying was brought up. Monday I was watching a TikTok video while I was waiting to go to the gym and a video came on on how to be there for your dog when he passes. I started to sob and then I went into a full-blown hysterical cry, because I’m going to be dealing with that in the very near future.I think it’s healthy to cry but not for my reason…

Don't want to get all scientific on you because of my medical background, but it's all hormones, that's no shit. Certain ones decrease with age and others increase, and we react accordingly.
