    I finally unpacked my bow last night to shoot it and make sure everything is hunky-dorie for this weekend and apparently my sight got broken in transit. FREAKING SWEET!!! God bless the TSA and all the moronic POSs that they employ. Every pin except for my 60 yard pin was snapped right off and my case was fine. Meaning, the bow had to be dropped while "inspecting my case". I put an old sight on and am sighted in for 30 and 40, which is plenty for whitetail, but just one more thing to add to the list. Oh, and did I mention I got crapped on by a bird... TWICE! I cannot wait for this godforsaken year to be over. The only thing keeping me sane right now is my family and thank God for them. I am about one more thing away from a full out postal fit of rage.

    Lmao, Good Lord Jim! I'm trying not to laugh, but damn . . . your season, so far, is living proof that "when it rains, it pours". I'm thinking it's gonna turn for you, though. Surely you deserve some good karma, if any one does. :cool:

    How about a Cincinnati Reds and Bengals fan? It doesn't get any worse than what we've got.

    Got a flat on the 4-wheeler yesterday:bash:

    You're all heart Josh:deer:

    I am glad my misery brings you such joy:hater:

    Honestly, I had to laugh at it all the other night myself. I am awfully lucky in many aspects of my life. If hunting related stuff and work is all that goes wrong, then I am doing pretty good:cool: It just gets to ya every once in a while when it keeps piling on.

    Yes I do. Shot a little one in MT. I understand what you are trying to get at, which is basically that I am whining and need to shut the hell up. Point taken.
