Annoyed at thread drift

[BigCityChief]

My grandpa raised rabbits. As a kid, I helped him butcher them. I would grab one from the hutch and hit it in the head with a hammer to dispatch it. Then I would hand off to grandpa who would hang it on a board from some nails. He could skin it and clean it in nothing flat. He would throw it in a bucket of cold water, and I would wash it off. Then grandma would cut them up, fry some for supper, and freeze the rest.

Can you imagine what would happen to kids these days if they talked about hitting rabbits with a hammer? They have no clue that those Happy Meals don't make themselves.

That's our little secret![emoji12]

This video made me wonder...Where does one get a job as a coconut fitter & what kind of training would be involved? I would be willing to take on the job training & would require few benefits...

I believe the ship in that video is the USS Russell, seen here at Pearl Harbor

Uh-oh!!

You just can't rely on anyone anymore! I asked Santa for a jet fighter in gift wrap and got this:

Just how much fun did you have hammering those poor defenseless little rabbits?

Rusty, no worries - she finally got it right!

I know it's off topic.

Not sure if this is sarcasm...but we didn't do it for fun. We did it for food.

I played baseball for fun.

Cooked the curry. Hot, spicy chicken curry, we don't mess with that mild stuff.
If it ain't hot and spicy, then why bother?

My wife baked a rum cake the other day.
She made it strong too.

Got this card in the mail today. Looks like something you would find here, but it came from a non-drifter.

...my wife's a farm girl...she makes her city friends queasy when she tells them she ate her pet cow Clara Belle...her pet pig Shorty...and more rabbits than she could name...

Circle of life as far as I'm concerned. My son knows we gut, field dress, and consume whatever we harvest.

Harvesting sounds like you ran over the thing with a combine. You killed it, and the real work begins when the thing is on the ground and no longer breathing.
