That stuff is great, even to lay on if you need to check something out under the truck.
Sorry for the hijack Bucky.

So when I wrote about the absence of pain I was reminiscing about +/- 25 years ago. FF to today my body is in some form of pain round the clock. I have a good care team at the VA who are working on solutions with each visit. I see a pain management specialist who has been prescribing a low dosage Sch 4 “narcotic to help. I also take an anti inflammatory medication twice daily.
I also stretch my hip flexor muscles and legs daily and my bride rolls my leg muscles daily. I’m fighting an ITB band that is catching on my hip/pelvis and therapy is trying to work that out.
biggest thing is just lifestyle mods like knowing when I’ve had enough, adjusting how I climb things, go up and down stairs, sleep etc. I too use EVA foam mats like mentioned by Rojo. Many things I could do with ease I either do t do anymore or take me longer to complete.
i was just daydreaming when I wrote the quote about no pain
I always use something to kneel on, or lay on. Try not to take too many pills but if I know it's gonna be a rough day will take a few pain pills
I keep mine in my system, if I miss the morning or evening doses my body reminds me quick!
I’m fat, I admit it but I prefer the term WELL MARBLED…:Rofl
One must truly know fear to understand bravery
Not a thought, it’s a fact. Treestand Safety Harnesses and lifelines are priceless. LSS…I have been hunting two big bucks relentlessly and this past Weds it rained hard. The clay was slick on my boots. On the way up my climbing sticks my foot slipped and I slammed the step with. Y sternum and abdomen. The Hunters Safety System vest and line did their jobs. I have a nasty bruise and cut on my abdomen but I’m still climbing! Wear your safety gear…
Glad you were wearing your vest and wasn’t hurt any worse. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
I’m good Dave. Bruised ego. LOL.
Always good when gear works as designed. Glad you were using it as designed, right.
Glad it was not worse for you. Lots of freestanding fall injuries around here. Those falls in the woods are rough
Curse words while bad are really just sentence enhancers….:Rofl
On Thanksgiving Day and every day for that matter it’s always better to count your blessings than to count the calories.
Christian is in the heart….
seniliry is just a word the younger generations use to avoid listening to older folks…
I dated a Gurl named Sinilry.
Did not work out, but well.. you know. she never knew what happened in the Morning :)
I.E. I used her money for a guided trip.
P.S. Edited several times. Because... Senility.
I think I just found my favorite thread. Possibly a good time to ban me. :)
Last time I fell, the Ambulance bill.... "ALOT"
for once we can say we’re in this together!

I understand there is some near politics and Social statements, But I am reading a lot of very true and insight posts. And some information to respect the people posting.
Admittedly I am guilty of quite a few of the less than good ideas. just being upfront. Good overall.
With super intelligent folks writing the algorithms is Artificial Intelligence really artificial?
Time is a precious thing and unlike money you never know how much you have left…use it wisely
Ever noticed you can’t see the shadow of a flame when a light is used?
A flame has no shadow, it has it's own light!
Great Grandchildren don’t make you any older but after playing with them all day they sure remind you just how old you are!
You are a Deep Thought Person..............today in the younger generations deep thought is being replaced by digital activation and stimulation. I love a Problem, can spend hours working on one in my head, funny todays youth have to look up a possible answer.
When I'm trying to figure something out in my head, evidently it shows on my face. Ms. Joyce will always ask, what you thinking about. It's usually involving my boat, or is fishing related, to which I get accused of having a one-trac mind...LOL.
Although I am often told not to, I was thinking, if a person has an idea or a thought on something, and may even think of a solution to a problem, when you stop thinking on said thought, where does it go?
That being said, how often have you thought about something and suddenly someone has put the same solution to a problem in use or in some manor published the same conclusion or question someplace? :scratchhead
A lot of times I write it down to pass on to the grandsons. I still use “tricks” that I learned from my father long ago. As for somebody publishing my ideas or using them it hasn’t happened although I do remember an Elementary School project on paper where I discussed with illustrations about capturing sound to make Electricity. Which as it turns out can be done.
There is hope. Fishing Lake Cumberland the past 5 days we got run off the lake Saturday by a thunderstorm. We made a run to Conley Bottom Marina to tie off and get under cover and have some ice cream. There was a nice 30th couple and two young sons who had tied off and they were going along the dock helping anyone who needed it tie off and step out of the boat. Very respectful young boys who are being raised right. Wouldn’t take a dime just replied they were glad to help.
Only one we took…
