Lame-n-taushion:
I am the father of 6.
I have two grandchildren.
I joined before pajama boy did.
Up until a couple years ago, now, I was a full time general contractor who came upon this site via one of my older son's friends whom I'd had the fortune to overhear telling my son that he was going to miss him because he had the coolest Dad in the neighborhood because he (me,obviously) did things with his kids, cool things nobody elses dad's did.
- Our house was always the "kool-aid house" where all the kids came to play, watch our chickens/roosters, play on my kids' roll-around pirateship I built for them, slide on their 75' zip-line that no other kid in the city limits had, shoot the tater guns in the backyard, etc.
I didn't and don't really have the 24/7 time to devote to kids play like this...and it has been in this last year that I've been turned on to this youtube thing, but, hey,ya know what? it's no damn big deal!
If you're so righteous about what you think of me do a search or ask around about me, I'm pretty cut and dried so to speak. When I have something meaningful to say, I say what I mean and mean what I say.
I've had more intersting life experiances than most people can even contemplate.Being sure of my self, having built over 2000 homes for people over the course of my career by myself as well as with crews of guys from 3 to 12 members, and owned more rifles,pistols,etc., blown up more shit---it pays to be a good boy growing up, you get a class three firearms permit easier. I've built two nitro jeeps -one with a buddy who saw my potential to sponser him, and the other by myself in my sparetime over the course of four years.
If I feel like talking shit, I WILL... LIKE YOU.
I don't give a rats rip about how many posts somebody has under their belt, nor how many spudbux they have, nor how many or how complex of spud canons they've made.
but to pacify your infantile ranting, I'll dig up some old pics of the osb board we shot up, then you can use your teeth to clean off my dingle-berries, okay?
Everybody,no matter how old or how experianced they are will always be a newb at something, and if you can't take some ribbing then go home and suckle.
I stopped coming to this site and a lot of others on the net afte having a truss break at work one day and falling 19' ...and hitting a concrete footing with my head and L. shoulder...that pretty well put a damper on a lot of things in my life and my families life: that was the point of referance for the neighbor kid's going to miss us. I ended up losing the house I built for my family to inherit when I died, 4 pickup trucks, 2 cars, a mini-van, a 15-passenger airforce van that looked like a stake-out vehicle, a 24' Bayliner, and a lot of memories to pay off the medical ley stated expenses insurance didn't cover.
I now have an artificial left shoulder,very limited lifting ability with my left: 5 lbs from the waist up, no overhead ability, can't tuck in the back of my shirts on the left, and my wife still has to wash my hair when I want it done right.
You joined Aug 7, 2007, I was still going to physical therapy, still dpressed over the loss of my lively- hood, and still twice the human being you'll ever be.
As mr. Crowley stated, I was joking, but you had your head too far up your ass to realize that point. I forgive you ya,
newb.
