    - I married my high school sweetheart
    - I have never seen Star Wars and don't like any movies that take place in space.
    - I sleep in the nude...it's so much more comfortable!
    - I can swim but can't tread water.
    - I really don't mind cleaning house.
    - I feel like a pretty accomplished hunter but still wish I could kill a "huge" buck.

    -my desire to hunt western game trumps my desire to hunt whitetails
    -I've been wearing Toms for the past two years
    -I met my wife in a ToysRUs parking lot 7 years ago. Did not think nothing of it at the time. Many girlfriends and three years later we were engaged.(weird how things happen sometimes)
    -I've never tried smoking or dipping
    -I've gotten over 2500$ in tickets an arrested one night
    -I've killed lots of deer and ducks in past years. Now I get more enjoyment out of getting my wife and my best friends shots.

    -I am addicted to eating, several times a day.
    -I got laid off last year, first time in over 30 years of employment, during deer season and enjoyed the time I got to spend in the woods.

    -I enjoy a good beer occasionally, and sometimes one that's not so good.

    I'm OK

    I've lived 69 years. It all hasn't been good.

    I'm wicked good at field dressing a critter. I'm fast and see it as an art form.

    I was given up for dead once... but I fooled them all.

    I could have died 5 times but dodged the bullet

    I'm afraid of heights.... I mean really afraid. Don't put me on a high bridge.

    20 feet up is all I seek.

    I'm really a closet grommet chef. But now that my wife has died and I live alone.... I really don't do it much anymore. Sad deal really. I miss it. I still order specialty foods on line that I can't get locally. It cost a fortune.... but damn it's good stuff.

    My health is still in the gutter at present. We're working on it with high doses of steroids.

    Raised Catholic but switched to Methodist when I got married.

    My best friend in life has and will always be my friend Chuck from 6th grade. We've stayed tight and have managed to get together all our life no matter where we lived. He's coming up Thursday for an overnight to do some sipping and sitting on the creek bank trying to catch a fish or two. Friend number 2, Donnie, will also be joining us. Known him since birth. 3 amigos.

    8-12 months and they say I may beable to climb that tree and flale a fly rod..

    Which for the record is great. I'm sad that more AAs don't partake in hunting. Glad you guys do.

    I sit down to pee 100 percent of the time at home when I don't pee out the front door.

    I'm scared of bears and walking in the woods in the dark.

    I won't eat vegetables, even fried.

    I declared bankruptcy at 22.

    Good thread.

    -I'm at a cross roads in life, keep working at a job in the financial industry that I may or may not enjoy a career in, or look for something I think I would enjoy more...if I knew what that was.
    -I wish I was a better fisherman, especially when it comes to saltwater.
    -I don't care about any kind of professional sport.
    -I'd like to move to another state (south), but will never move out of driving distance from my parents, so looks like I'm stuck in the northeast.
    -I hope to be just like my father as I get older.

    I had that on my back. It was from an Osage orange thorn that scraped my back while piling brush. My shirt barely touching it would send chills up my spine. It finally went away after about 3 years though.

    Wow thats crazy! I think Im gonna have mine checked out one day. I dont go to doctors often, but I want to know! I have done everything, scratch it with sand paper and screw drivers and even dug at it with a knife hoping to either find what it was or destroy it haha. Didnt help, just made me bleed all over and as soon as it healed it itched again!
