Tailgating the elderly.
Watching people fall down. Asking people what time it is, when they have a cup of coffee in their hand. Using lawn mowers for tasks which I can only say are "other than their intended purpose." I have many others, but I don't want to soil my reputation as Mr. Nice Guy here. |

Sitting here reading threads late at night, drinking a beer, with my newest acquition in the oven baking out the cosmoline and that wonderful smell that means I'm doing one of my favorite things. Wish I was right now.
Watching band of brothers with my Garand, K98, and .45 sitting nearby. Waiting late at night for a blizzard to roll in while reading my favorite forums and talking about it. |

Standing at the grill cooking anything with a cold beer in my hand.
Dinner with all the family eating the above grilled meat of choice. Watching the sunset on the front porch with my wife (and my dog) and a glass of good red wine. An empty highway on-ramp and red-line shifts through the first 3 gears in my little german car. I'm going to miss that when I sell it..... A few hours at the range alone with my 1911 and shorty Bushmaster. Going to the range with my sons, watching them shoot well (better than I some days). Any free time spent near the water. |

Thanks to kidney stone attacks recently, I know what you're talking about. But for me, just one oxycodone is quite sufficient to make me feel like I'm covered in a soft but untouchable blanket. It sort of insulates you from the world and makes you feel a bit warm, and also, rather dizzy for a while. And you THINK you can sleep well like that, but I've found that THAT doesn't happen so easily. I don't think I'm in danger of being addicted. It's not that pleasurable a feeling. I like to feel more in control. CJ |

To funny. I told my girlfriend about a bunch of us saying "the smell of a womans hair". She gave me a WTF look pulled her hair in front of her face and smelled it. I just said "women don't get it".
Too cute.

Coming home, after a day working in the filthy and noisy city, and once the engine is shut off all I can hear is birds (crickets after dark).
The first rays of sun at the crack of dawn, in the deer stand. Dumping a few mags full-auto. Visiting my dad, and shooting with him, my brother, and my nephew. A long cold drink of water after yard work in the heat of the day. The total silence after a big snow storm. My dog's cold nose waking me up on weekends to tell me he needs to go outside. The smell of racing gas and burning rubber, and the roar of a well built big block V8 with open headers. Beer. |

The smell of my wife's hair (she will actually wear it in a bun all day to keep the smell for me.. what a woman)
Seeing my children smile in their sleep. Watching a deer feed. Feeling the bump of a bass bite. A first gear power wheelie on my FZ1 motorcycle. The first shot at the first dove on the opening day of the season. The smell of a horse sweating, mixed with the leather of the saddle and the smell of the oats on its breath. My kids saying, "I love you." Thanks for the thread. Evokes great memories.... |

Being in the deer stand before the sun comes up and watching it rise over the trees into a huge field and the frost on the ground glistens like little diamonds.
Floating around that private fishing hole with your best friends and a cooler full of beverages A good burn out on a friday night When your significant other gives you that smile that only you get Laying on a huge flat rock on a blanket next to the river with that special someone and a bottle of homemade wine The smell of CLP and Gunpowder burning in my AR Bump firing a drum out of the AK with no stops and all your friends hangin around with steaks on the grill and beer in the cooler |

The first taste of a perfectly cooked steak, where you can close your eyes and ignore the rest of the world for a minute.
The first taste of a rootbeer in a mug that's so cold it's starting to ice. Hearing all "2 alpha's" and being surprised because you had a really good time to boot. The feel of my bike on a good road, just begging for a little more twist of the wrist. Scaring women, children and old people with that same bike.  Realizing that you just ran out of stuff to do on your "endless" to do list. Having someone tell you this outrageous "friend of a friend story" and realizing that YOU were that friend of a friend, the story is about something that actually happened to you, and this schmuck in front of you has no clue..

When you have tons of shit to do but decide to do nothing but drink beer and play with your dogs.
When you have tons of shit to do at work and call in sick. When you have tons of guns to clean and decide to clean them. When you don't have anything to do and don't want to do anything either. |

Sitting on the back porch playing the guitar at dawn.
Boarding a plane to go home. Seeing pure innocence in a small child's eyes. The sincere smile of a stranger passing by. A loooong hot shower. Smoking a cigarette while taking a dump in an empty house. (One of the first things I wanted to do when I got back after my first deployment to Iraq.) Helping someone in need without anyone knowing you did it. -Smalls |

Sunsets and Sun ups
Walking up the steps to the house after work and the wife opens the door before I get my key in the lock. To be out on the back deck sitting in the chair I built, a tumbler of Crown Royal, a tasty smoke while the sun sets over the marsh. Wwhhhonk,Wwhhhonk,Wwhhhonk,Wwhhhonk,Wwhhhonk as the geese come in for the night. |
