I'm feeling like a million bucks so I'll share this story:

A couple years ago, I get a call mid evening on a January night. One of the bad ass awesome people I know that gives me full reign over there property is on the other end.

My buddy explains to me that him and his wife just hit a deer on their way home. He feels bad about it and asks me for a hand to retrieve the meat for their freezer.

I go their and retrieve the road kill. One problem: I didn't have a knife.

I tell my buddy I need a device to cut this deer up, and he gives me this old ass pocket knife.

"That'll work" is what I said and I'm into this deer quickly.

I look over at my buddy. He's crying and shit at this point.

I ask him what the deal is.

He tells me that him and his wife were driveing from his Grandpa's funeral when they hit that deer, and it was his grandpah's knife we where using.

F'n guy still gets choked up when we talk about it.

True story.


I guess it could be any object, but knifes and guns seem to steal the show

That's a hell of a story! I'm sure I'll choke up when I put his knife to use.

After you start using it, you're probably going to like how that knife fits in your hand. That will be something to pass along someday. Good Stuff Chad!

That's a unique ending to a bad day.... Losing a close loved one/friend wreaks havoc on the soul and screws with the psyche.....

What's good? Hunting with a too.com buddy, getting some bunnies and then relaxing with a cold one and a hot bowl of chili and biscuits!!!!

Just left the New Belgium brewery here in NC. Not a bad way to spend a Friday.

Great place. Super clean which my parents like. They've been to plenty of brewery's down this way. Complaint about most haveing a 'grungy' feel/look. Not this joint. Solid tasteing!




Can't forget this one! Happy baby
