Have we not discussed the fact I'm a costume wearing nerd?



If not, I do this for fun. There's a comic book movie coming to theatres this weekend. And this Saturday is Free Comic Book Day.

Productive day in the costume department. Have every piece for the vest cut, interfacing is being cut out and made ready for fusing, should have it all ready well before Saturday.


October is a long way off.  You seem ahead of the game!

Did I tell you about taking my daughter to ComiCon?

Just don't buy an IH 656.  Nothing really wrong with them, but my dad had one when I was a kid and I hated that fucking tractor with a passion.  Mostly because he refused to buy new rear tires for it, and I used it every day for chores.  I had to back a feed grinder around a 90 degree corner every day, onto a downward sloping concrete pad that was slick with pig shit, so I could fill up a hog feeder.  And this was after driving about 50 yards across another muddy, soupy pen.  I got that fucking tractor stuck about once a week, and several times almost slid off the concrete pad into the lagoon of pig shit.  When my dad asked me what I wanted as a high school graduation gift I told him I wanted new tires for the 656.  He just laughed.

I left for college and withing 3 months my dad had bought new tires.    


Fast forward 20 years or so and I joined the local gun club.  Being a sucker who can't say no when people ask for help I got talked into helping out with all kinds of projects and eventually joining the BOD.  And guess what kind of tractor we have at the club?


I'm going to drive that fucker into the kiddie fishing pond some day.

Dealing with people dying (including family members) has gotten a lot easier since my dad died.  Not sure if that's a good thing or not.

I don't expect anyone to come to mine, either.

I've made it very clear to my wife that she is to dispose of my carcass as cheaply as possible and spend the money she saves on booze for my friends.

 



So if you guys are still around you're welcome to come drink at my estate's expense when I kick the bucket.

You should take pics and work on it. Or set it somewhere where you will see it often. Seeing it unfinished will make you want to finish it.

Relatively. The construction part can be stressful, but the same goes for any building project, especially the design phase.

Did I tell you about taking my daughter to ComiCon?  


No, you didn't.
So, my 11 year old daughter is a huge Doctor Who freak.  She's a complete nerd, but also very cute so she'll make some nerdy guy very happy some day.  

 



About a month ago we went to Kansas City for the weekend.  It was my wife's birthday and she wanted to go to a spa resort and do all kinds of girly stuff.  Fine with me, the resort had a kickass bar with a bartender who knew how to make the best damn drinks I've ever had, so I got fitshaced while the girls did the spa thing.  




The next day we were driving by the KC convention center and noticed a bunch of people dressed in costumes walking up to it.  I thought "hmm, must be some kind of scifi convention".  Then we saw the signs for ComiCon.  I thought it would be kinda fun to take my daughter, but then we saw that Karen Gillan (Amy from Doctor Who) was going to be signing autographs.  I knew I would never hear the end of it if I didn't take her.  




I had never been to anything like it before.  The closest I've seen was the Great American Beer Festival in Denver, but instead of booths giving out free beer and hot chicks wearing beer wench outfits it was people selling steampunk costumes and hot cosplay girls.    The whole experience was rather strange to me but my daughter had the time of her life.  I somehow got talked into buying her a $50 pair of Tardis slipper boots.  On top of what I paid for admission, and the cost of getting an autograph from Karen Gillan.  




FWIW, Karen Gillan is just as ridiculously hot in person as she is on TV.

And yes, Wizard World (owners of ComicCon) charges crazy for their tickets. I like hitting the smaller, local cons mostly.

Another bad memory from my dad's 656.  It had a front end loader mounted on it, but the hydraulic hoses were old as shit.  One day I was hauling ass (relatively speaking) in 5th gear (the POS only had 5 to choose from) down a dirt road when BAMM!!! the loader bucket slammed to the ground, bringing me to an abrupt halt.  Which is what tends to happen when the hose for the main cylinders springs a massive leak.  I'm pretty sure I would have left a stain on the seat, except all the vinyl had been worn away years ago and we used an old feed sack to cover the bare foam.

Another bad memory from my dad's 656.  It had a front end loader mounted on it, but the hydraulic hoses were old as shit.  One day I was hauling ass (relatively speaking) in 5th gear (the POS only had 5 to choose from) down a dirt road when BAMM!!! the loader bucket slammed to the ground, bringing me to an abrupt halt.  Which is what tends to happen when the hose for the main cylinders springs a massive leak.  I'm pretty sure I would have left a stain on the seat, except all the vinyl had been worn away years ago and we used an old feed sack to cover the bare foam.











The only worse thing is when you get sprayed with hot hydraulic oil


I know those feels.

My Grandpa also had an old John Deere Model B that he bought used.  That was a cool old tractor.  You had to release the compression and then grab the flywheel with both hands and give it a spin to start the thing.  That old 2 cylinder gas motor shook like a motherfucker.
