hahaha I went camping like bare bones no tent just sleeping bag in the wilds of BC once. Couldn't tell if the thing making noise in the dark 20ft away was a bear or a deer. Pretty scary s**t to be perfectly honest. lol

Nothing wakes you up like having to take a s**t at 3 am in the middle of ******** Canada. Hope you remember where the hole is!

There's no way I'm squatting helplessly in cougar town so some beast can eat my guts out of my shitty butthole.

I don't fault anyone for seeing it that way, hell it took me a year before I would even brave leaving the tent after midnight since s**t was so dark when the moon was obscured.
So KB what kind of welding do you do? Just general metalworking?

I'm not really a welder. I just use a torch.
I work at a steel yard as the secondary non-ferrous guy. I'm training to replace the main guy when he leaves. Anyway, 1/4 of my job is just "buying" non-ferrous at the scale from people who roll in with copper and stuff like car batteries. Roughly 1/2 my job is upgrading materials in various ways. That's generally where the torch comes in.
Say we get a sheet of stainless or something, and it has regular steel bolts in it. That's considered dirty, so it's worth less. If I take a minute or two to blast the bolts out it becomes clean stainless, and the $$ difference is pretty monumental. Almost every time I upgrade something its like a 2-400% difference.
Since we load everything in boxes ( it gets sent to a massive metal recycling facility, or like sent to china ) some stuff has to be cut down to appropriate size. Sometimes it means using the torch to cut through materials, or sometimes it means using the shear or the gas axe.
My boss really likes me though and says I have really good cuts ( which is apparently hard, but it seems really easy imo ) so I've been doing a bit more torch work then usual, but that's like literally taking a semi trailer and dividing it into 2x4' pieces.

That's pretty sweet, good thing is you get your workout at work I imagine.
Sandblasting stuff is fun as hell until you get home and shake out the s**t from your clothes sad
I miss having an active job like that. My last job was building interior items by hand for companies. Stayed in shape and was constantly doing s**t all day.

Yeah my favorite part is that even though its kinda the same thing ever day, it's always kind of different. I also get to drive around a bobcat and a thomas, and that's awesome.

Xerowingz There are only three people I've ever truly enjoyed fighting. Like, actually couldn't wait for it to continue and haven't forgotten it sense enjoyed. A guy named Dragosani Kain, a guy named Foxcross and you. That guy gave me a memorable fight in 09 till this day I have never written a better fight then the one I had with him. EPIC LEVEL s**t and it was a prelim fight of all things lol.

I'm going to figure out who sent this. And when I find them, I'm going to high five them for being so cool.

This dumb.
I don't think my fight was so complicated as to need this long.
Plus, I feel like a certain someone has an agenda
