    We have yellow jackets in the crack in our front porch step. They got me in the ankle last year and I took them out. Looks like a new crop has moved in this year. We've gotten over 25 of them so far. Might go hunting this evening.

    Two reasons summer sucks:

    You can’t take a cold shower, but merely a cool shower. Or a hot shower.


    It is 92 degrees outside at midnight.

    those would likely be cheaper than these arcteryx prices.

    Has anyone else noticed that its nearly impossible to research anything on google anymore? Every search comes back with blog links and affiliate marketing sites.

    It's how they want it, more $s to be made off you when you think that the best purchasing option is from the "affiliate" who has the "best product" for you.

    But yes you are right, it is harder and harder to get good information. It is why I think boards like this one (not specifically this one) are so important in the mix.

    Check out the used arcterxy section. Good deals pop up on the site occasionally.

    They hooked it up! Can't wear the shirt cause it's too small, but I'll give it to Harold. Lots of stickers and a worksharp patch. 20220711_154953.jpg 20220711_155129.jpg

    Last Friday I got the strangest and funniest compliment I think I ever heard. We were at Jiujitsu and one of the other guys told me “trying to choke you is like trying to squeeze a log with my bicep.” I couldn’t stop laughing for a while after that.

    Smart guy though he switched to shoulder locks after that, haha.

    I think the heat index Tuesday is going to make it feel like 120*

    I've lived in SW Missouri for about 20 years, give or take and I don't remember it ever being this hot. Definitely staying inside though. Screenshot_20220718-144523_Chrome.jpg
