Pics of my stuff will all be dead fish and Bambi's. If the 401ks' turn out well, there is likely to have a dead elk or two in them.

That’s one heck of a collection you have there Robert.
I have a wealthy friend that has a very nice collection of vehicles. He turned it into a car museum. Some sort of tax break. FYI

Ferris, check your local PBS station listings for the next replay of this show. In the middle of the night last night I was flicking through channels and my PBS station was playing a tribute concert for the ABB. I copied this from the PBS wbsite. I only saw the last 20 minutes but they played a cover of Jessica that almost had me in tears.
Five and a half years after The Allman Brothers Band played their last concert at New York City’s Beacon Theater, the surviving members of that final lineup regrouped on March 10, 2020, with a trio of guests, as The Brothers. Founding Allman Brothers Band drummer Jaimoe, along with later ABB members guitarist Warren Haynes, guitarist Derek Trucks (nephew of ABB founder Butch Trucks), bassist Oteil Burbridge, and percussionist Marc Quinones — performed at Madison Square Garden for one night only to celebrate 50 years of music from The Allman Brothers Band. It also marked the first time these musicians played together since the passing of founding ABB members Gregg Allman and Butch Trucks. This special performance was one of the last concerts that took place before the world was shut down by a global pandemic. THE BROTHERS – CELEBRATING THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND 50TH ANNIVERSARY is part of special programming premiering on PBS stations beginning Saturday, August 31, 2024 (check local listings).

First off...
I hate working on cars and trucks...but I do a heck of a job , hunting , fishing , screwing , and woods walking.
Plenty to keep me busy. I'm also into Native wildflowers and Fruit bearing Trees.
Always collecting and planting stuff from the woods, walking for Arrowheads..ect.
I saw many wealthy Customers of mine retire and play gold for a year and then become heavy drinkers...I don't play golf but the other one I have to watch...sort a.

Jaimoe is the only one left of the original members. I think he's 80.

I can remember seeing them in Piedmont Park (Atlanta) in the late 60s. A free concert. Bought a blanket, laid out on the grass and drank Fighting Cock bourbon and coke.

1. Go to a dance club where young people hang out.
2. Crash a wedding reception
3. Do a night of heavy metal karaoke.
4. Visit a frat house and pretend to be an original member. Tell them stories about the wild days back when. Probably get some free drinks out of it.
5. Give some hideously ugly socks to your grandkids. Hide money in them and see if they find it.

That's way cool Pete. Glad you got her goin'. Beats the heck out of a bicycle. Thanks man! Slowly getting all the parts on it. Just rebuilt the generator and today a part will come to allow me to run a water temp gauge, a must for driving. Will pick up the hood later this week, get the top repair going, install the front fenders and lights and a ton of other small stuff, oh yeah, get the windscreen on!
Smokes a bit, but still in the break in period and I am running Marvelous Mystery oil in the gas, along with a bit of kerosene to get the octane down in the 50s.

Did a lot of fishing in Florida for 30-40 years.
Now mostly light spinning gear for smallmouth bass in the Little TN river.
At 75 I'd probably have to hand off the rod on a 100 lb YFT or a big ol' sow grouper down about 150 foot.

That was somebody else on the Haiti comment. I don't remember who though.
Atlanta is probably up there on black population but the majority are college educated or in the trades. Hard working people who want the same for their grandkids and kids as I do. Neighborhood is probably 45% black. Upper 6 figure homes and they are hell on someone who doesn't keep up their homes.

Nice car collection. I really like those Chevelles. I could be happy w just one with a 396… My dad had a light blue one with the 396. It was bad ass. I tried to get him to keep it until I was 16, then give it to me. My mom got wind of that plan, and my dream got traded for a freaking station wagon. |

At 75 I'd probably have to hand off the rod on a 100 lb YFT or a big ol' sow grouper down about 150 foot. Buy an electric outfit. Stick it in the rod holder, drop it down, and push the button when the rod bends over. |

It was in joking context why people should not move to Georgia, let's drop it. |

That's a Shakespeare Neceduh made in 1970. It draws 45# @ 28 in and is actually pretty fast for a trad bow. It was given to me by a friend, I shot it a while and passed it on to young man that hunted with a compound and want to try a trad bow, he's hooked now and already bought a new recurve, funny how that happens. Lol
Currently I'm shooting a 40# and a 50# Treadway R/D longbow. The 50 lb bow, I call my struggle stick. At my 29 in draw it might be a little too much for me. I also have 1970 Bear Grizzly that I fool with a little. It actually shoots a broad head real nice.
