October 4, 20241 yr Popular Post I have a friend who owns every expensive tool and machine that ever been maid but he never makes anything, says its just for looks and to make his wife happy for she is always telling him to go to his shop and make something. I don't have many drawers for things get hid in them and can never find them. Got lots of more areas to show but am running out of ink.

October 5, 20241 yr Author My worry is in the spring as the snakes are coming around for another year of scaring the ----out of us-- And especially when wife is removing weeds from around her plants. I think she closes her eyes when doing this task. Its just a few miles to the yearly rattle snake roundup at Sweetwater. They advertise as its the largest of that type of fun in the world. A few go away as processed snake skins I guess to the rich for I don't think I was ever introduced to any. Then a bunch of them or maybe all the rest are milked to sell for venom in case someone don't like dying. And this must be fun to do for they have spectators come up and show how they do it. So see there is something else than sports here in Texas.... but now they sell rides down to the border for folks to sit and watch as all ages try to die crossing that one foot deep river to heaven.
October 5, 20241 yr I had a friend when I was serving in the Air Force who used to catch rattlers in Texas. He was minus one finger because of a snake bite. No thanks !
