I don't ever plan to be that hungry. I have seen Bear Grylls eat them but I will pass.

I remember this one time, .... in band camp ......

no wait, we were driving through northern new Mexico when I was a kid (which is east of here) and my dad said it felt like he had a flat tire.
Turns out the back of the ole stationwagon was kinda sliding around, on all the squished tarantuas on the road. A go-zillion of em. talk about a stephen king book .......
Doan know how or why but the entire road was covered with em.
Prolly up near shiprock.

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.

I can't find a picture of my favorite ad from Red Brick. Instead of "You all" it says "Europe".

I rarely get to make real chili at my house. My son loves it but he hasn't quite developed a tolerance for the heat. My wife and daughter call it "inedible".

Hate to break it to you but you can wear those boots even when you are not riding a horse!

Vash,

Get a good pair of boots for a change. Get some that are made for YOUR foot! Costs another $50-$75 but last forever and they are YOURS, not some generic boot that you force your foot to get used to.

Have been wearing hand-made boots for almost 30 years now and there is nothing like them.
