...I don't wanna say it was rainin hard & long...but I started designin plans fer a new arc.....at any rate...the next thing I be a knowin is that my whole yard and street was entirely underwater, somethin that ain't never happened in the 60 some years I lived in these here parts...and a course...the next thing t'go underwater was the basement...so...I been a might busy doin some yard and house clean up as y'all can imagine......Now Sir...I truly know what be meant by "Flash Floodin"......

....Now Sir...on a lighter note...this here's gotta be one a the coolest Tatoo's I done seen in a long time.....


....imagine sittin behind this guy in Church...now there's a mental picture fer ya.....


...I think the only other tatoo I seen in my life that was really cool was when a Navy buddy a mine came back from liberty one night in New London, Connecticut and showed me his brand spankin new body art....he had "WELCOME ABOARD" tatoo'd just above his pubic hairs....in Military stencil style as well....cool....
