Hey Torog. Hang on to a big ol' bag of that skunky local stuff for me. I may come begging in a few days. And I'll definitely share!! :thumbsup:

Glad to see you post again. I hadn't seen you on here in a few weeks. Hope you're doing okay.

Well, off to bed. You guys have a great night.

Onward!

I guess I'd better jump in there and represent those that are over 50. Now look at what I've done, all that jumping, and I've put my hip out LOL....the ol bod just isn't what it used to be, I'd better settle down and act more my age LOL

I hear you.....I spent several hours Sunday doing chores and manual labor. Now all the things that used to pass for muscles hurt like hell. Hope your hip heals quickly.

Maybe some of us 40's and 50's burnouts can start up a ruckus like those idiot kids in Paris are doing. Only instead of burning cars and houses, we could just fire up a fat boy and tell stories about the good old days, boring everyone to death. It might not make CNN or FOX, but maybe the local access channel could at least come over and interview a few of us between naps..... :smokin:

Onward!

Hey Torog,
Good to see you on the boards. Haven't seen you in a while. I'm struggling because my contact, a student, left town. It's hard to meet people who you trust and who smoke. I don't know where to start. Can't talk about it at the office, can't talk to the neighbors about it. When you've got a wife and kids it's too risky to go looking for street weed. I've had some luck with mailorder, but it certainly isn't foolproof.
take it easy

Howdy bssman,

Yup..I've been checking in on the threads and hadn't seen many to post in,mainly because I didn't have much to contribute,I may have alot of posts to my credit,but they are mostly all because I had something to say or contribute..lol..I don't believe in making alot of piddlin posts..lol.

I hear ya when it comes to yer situation..been there,done that..it finally drove me to learn how to grow my own smoke,but at a big risk,and I didn't like that..and now I wish that I could grow again,but I ain't got the means to do so at this time..it drives me nutty,when I have to put up with street-grade smoke all of the time,but it's pretty good at times,too.

Have a good one !

Hi Torog. Glad to hear that you're still kicking. Since we only know our friends on the forum as anonymous nicknames, when someone disappears for awhile, I worry that they either got taken down or something else bad that might have happened.

We're doing okay these days. Kind of battling some issues just like everyone. But for the most part things are going in a positive direction.

Was over in Miserable Wells this past weekend, just driving through. Thought about you while passing through town. I used to drive through there at least twice each month, but since moving east I rarely get over there anymore.

How's your health these days? The back holding up? Are you feeling the effects of middle age as bad as I am lately? This cold front tonight instantly brought stiffness and soreness to my back and knees. Don't you just LOVE getting older???? I guess it beats the alternative.

Take care!

Onward!

Howdy onward,

Yup..them cold fronts can really mess me up at times..lol. Like ya said,it usually hits my back and knee's the worst,plus my right hip will act up too.

Yup,Miserable Wells,is one of my favorite nicknames,lol,plus Miserable Gulch..lol. Maybe one of these days,when ya know that you'll be out this way,you can give me a holler on this here board,and we can meet,and hopefully,you won't go back home empty-handed.

I'm glad to hear that you and your's,are doing well.

Have a good one !

Hey torog, I hear there's some climbing in Mineral Wells... maybe a state park or something? Got any tips?

[onwardthroughthefog]

Thanks for the invite Torog. I'll sure take you up on it. I know you don't get over to this part of the area often, but sometimes I do have to go to Weatherford, Mineral Wells, and Graham. Sometimes even to Archer City and Jacksboro.

When you were roughnecking, did you ever do any off-shore work? Or only on dry land?

Onward!

Howdy simplestyle3,

Yup..there's a State Park,called Lake Mineral Wells and they have a good rock-climbing area there. There's some pretty good fishing there too and they have basic camp-sites and screened in cabins with electric and water.

Have a good one !

Howdy Onward,

Well ..like I said,just give me a holler and I'll give ya my phone number so we can git together.

I did all my rough-necking on dry land,mostly down around Austin,Giddings,La Grange and Bastrop,at depths up to 10,800 feet,so we always got some good ol slow-drilling days in.

Have a good one !
