Topic: Let it all hang out,tell us how you really feel and what pisses you off.

[Terry in Australia]

Well I mixed Jack Daniels, Coruba Rum and Chivas Regal in equal parts, and I've gotta say, I'm only pissed off because I'd never tried it before, this stuff is magic!

[Terry in Australia]

Prejudices Cal? How about Bacardi white rum, the most disgusting liquid ever poured into ma maff! I've heard they do a good red rum though, I might have to give it a go, I just ran out of Coruba..........

[demon78]

Yeah if you guys can get it Lemon Hart 151 Navy Rum. Premium Pain Killer gets rid of the shivers and other ailments
Bill the demon.

[74cb750]

pissed....my wife drank some rum this past weekend. 1st time in like maybe 30years. She got pissed.

Pissed me off as i had to try and stay sober to drive home. Couldn't do it.

had someone else drive me home as I was pissed drunk by 1/2 through the 2nd drink of lemon drop something....

i guess you could say i'm a cheap drunk. 

[vfourfreak]

To my friend Adam

You lousey scribbler I dedicate this to you and your wife  :

You have not just pissed me off, but thousands others also. A record, truly.

When I drink, I only drink Dark Rum. Stay thirsty my friend-

Cal,
If you haven't tried it yet, sample some Ron Zacapa Centenario 23.  One of the better dark rums -- great for sipping on the rocks.

[Retro Rocket]

I'm happy to sip dark rum anywhere, even atop a rock, Don 

Have you tried any of Appletons rum Cal, one of the best around, their 21 year old is sublime, haven't tried anything older from them, it costs a small fortune but I imagine its good...

[Terry in Australia]

Well I'm no poser, er, I mean, "connoisseur" of rums either, especially when I'm paying for it, quantity far outweighs quality. I've just done a search in Dan Murphy's (my favourite booze dealer) site, and the winner is............. Bundaberg Red. It's received some good reviews, so I'll give it a bash, and if it doesn't meet expectations, I'll "blend" it with whatever else I've got in my booze cabinet to improve it. Cheers, Terry.

The only benefit from drinking rum, is that it guarantees free accomodation for the evening

At the Police Station. 

[Terry in Australia]

Ha ha, it's a pity that Dave hasn't graced us with his presence Mick, he has a really good story about why he's not allowed to drink spirits which is ironic for me, because most of my crimes were perpetrated under the influence of beer............

[mick7504]

That's for sure mate.
I reckon that Dave's story wins first prize by a country mile.
But that's his story tell. 

[Terry in Australia]

Yep, he told me another story "off line" Mick, which I'm not allowed to repeat, but it does explain a lot about why he prefers a nice cold beer to the demon liquor.............

I've got a massive pine tree growing behind my place, I quite like it, although I'm sure that eventually it'll fall on the house. On Monday night it got quite windy, and a couple of the branches were beating the roof like a red-headed step child, which pissed me off.

On Tuesday, I conducted "Operation Bag Drop" as my son described it, which involved the wife and I picking up my mother in law and her sister, and driving them 80 miles to Portarlington. We stopped for lunch (and to air the car out from sneaky old farts and Lavender perfume) along the way, and after lunch I won a small fortune on a poker machine.

Rather than invest this windfall in alcohol, I jumped on eBay and bought a 65cc "Pole Saw" that I'd been admiring, but the wife hadn't been keen on me buying. It was delivered this afternoon, so after a few minutes of assembly, it was ready for testing.

 

The quality of the thing was surprising for what it cost, ($189) it's Chinese of course, but seems well made. 65cc two strokes are a lot harder to pull start than 35cc 2 strokes, but once I got the hang of it, it started first pull, and I removed the two large branches that had been doing the drum solo on my roof in only a few minutes.

I was thinking about chopping a few more branches off for good measure, but the wife told me to put my new toy away, which pissed me off, I was having fun. Oh well, last time I had a free run with a chainsaw I totally denuded the mother in laws back yard and it took 2 tip trucks to remove the carnage, so maybe she was right..............

You guys probably spend way too much on alcohol. I only buy the middle of the road stuff for people whom come over.
It pisses me off, but I can  no longer drink. But it's ok as I never did like anything but beer, wine, cheeze and women. :-)

I've had a chainsaw fixing week this week mate.
Since the missus is away, I'm "allowed" to be down in the shed when I feel like it.

Anyway, I got the ol' Makita chainsaw back together on Sunday after finding a replacement bolt at Bunnings, but the fcukas only sold 'em in a 2 pack which was about as handy as a fcuken ashtray on a motorbike.
It's no big deal, but the other spare bolt is gunna be lonely for the rest of it's life because I'll probably never need it.

So feeling rather pleased with myself, I dug the ol' Stihl AV010 chainsaw out and cleaned off about 10 years worth of dust and cobwebs from it.
First thing was to pull the spark plug and give it a clean and regap it and then a drink of newly mixed 2 stroke juice.
After about half a dozen rips on the cord, the 37cc big bore fired into life.
You fcuken beauty, I was as happy as a dog with 2 dicks.

Then I was trying to remember what fcuked up on it all of those years ago when I got the sh1ts with it and chucked it into the chainsaw dungeon.
It was something playing up with the centrifugal clutch, so I pulled it apart and gave it a clean up but all that I could find was a needle roller bearing that looked a bit sus.
So I've ordered a new needle roller from the bearing mob which should be here early next week.

If that gets it going again, then I'm gunna be the proud owner of 2 chainsaws and the landscape around my joint might be looking a bit different when the cook gets back from holidays.
I know that she trusts me, but, she doesn't trust me with a chainsaw, especially 2 of the fcukas.

My alcohol consumption has been drastically reduced since being diagnosed with celiacs. No more beer. Well...no more good beer. Paying for gluten free beer just seems stupid. I should be getting paid to drink IT. Some whiskey is ok but some makes me sick. I drank some fireball the other day and paid dearly for it for the next 24ish hours. Lately I've been drinking Sailor Jerry rum.

Oh hell yeah, my missus has celiac and it is a pain in the #$%*ing arse.  You never realise what wheat is in till you have to cater for someone who can't eat it.   

[Terry in Australia]

Yep, my son can't have any gluten or any dairy, so that's pretty much everything. I can't eat shellfish, but that's fine, I can't stand the smell of that stuff anyway.

Yeah I shouldn't eat dairy, but I like the stuff too much so I just put up with extra farting every now and then .  I couldn't handle not being able to eat shellfish, I love the stuff too much

No worries Mick, I love my chainsaws, I've got a little Solo that I've had since my Grandfather died and left it to me 30 years ago, but the fuel tank needs a new gasket, and I've got my monster 118cc McCulloch Super Pro 118 (rebadged Dolmar 166) but I need to sharpen the chain after almost cutting thru a bluestone block when chopping up the Wasp Nest in the Aloe Vera bush last year.

Here's a link with a couple of vids of someone who knows what he's doing playing with the same saw as mine, it came standard with a 3 foot bar, but you could buy an optional 6 foot bar for those "big" logs.................

Thanks Andrew, I inherited the shellfish thing from my dad but didn't know until I had my first pizza back in the 1970's and discovered that me and anchovies don't get on, and I can't stand the smell of raw seafood, I just about chuck when I walk through my local shopping centre, and that pisses me off.....................

[petercb750]

I've developed an intolerance over the last few years to garlic and onions, which makes it hard going out anywhere for tea, cos nearly everything has garlic in it. Years ago it was never a problem. It gives me a hangover worse than a hangover, which pisses me off cos I don't drink. Crook guts, headache, tiredness. These days I usually just have shnitties, steaks or fish and chips to be safe, but every now and then I get caught out and that pisses me off.

[petercb750]

Tez, my dear old late mum was allergic to shellfish...I remember the night she discovered the allergy...we had been out for a xmas dinner and she had some crayfish....man I've never seen anyone so violently ill...poor old chook.

[demon78]

Yeah ain't it wonderful getting old and discovering that there is a bunch of things you can't eat anymore stuff that you ate when you were younger with out any sweat used to love Serrano Chiles, Tomatoes, ah #$%* I'm beginning to wonder if the trade off is worth it. Oh and Mick one for each hand that's got to be scary.

I reckon that it would've been 25/26 years ago when I bought my Dolmar Whipper Snipper and I'd never heard of the name before.
Fairly sure that they were made by Kawasaki Industries.

Well, this ol' girl is still tickin' over like a champion and I don't recall ever giving it any attention.
Maybe one spark plug back in the early days and apart from that, it's always ready for some action.
And I had to replace the cord head on it once after it wore out from rubbing on rocks and dirt.

We've got this Gamba Grass that grows like a fcuking tree up here that you probably saw in your Army days when you were up North mate.
Along with the other wobbly 2 legged native "Tourist Attractions" of the NT.

The ol' Gamba Grass goes of like a bomb when it catches on fire and it is a pain in the arse to keep under control.
Some c#$%* introduced it here years ago to feed the cattle and now it's a just another head fcuk like these fcuking Cane Toads.

Now they reckon that the fcuking Cane Toads are gunna fcuk up the eco system good and proper because they root like Rattle Snakes and spit out baby fcuking Cane Toads like frangas coming out of a fcuking vending machine.

Well. fcuk it anyway, any fcuking Cane Toad that gets in the way of the Dolmar Whipper Snipper is gunna get it's fcuken arse whipped good 'n proper.
