Oh heck yeah! I’ll have to show the kid, he’s got the day off tomorrow and the next and he’s been fidgeting with the printer since it screws up..

My first attempt at layout of the patches I’ve been collecting and the jean jacket I found, I got one still coming which will go in the middle which I marked, and I still gotta fill the one little hole on the left, those others will go on the front, what do you think?

With all the bloody jumps I did, I still don't see the need to jump out of a perfectly usable mode of transport  :rofl:

Those are the old man’s, he was in the 8th infantry airborne and supposedly big red 1, but my wife just ordered me a little package of patches, they had individual patches for like $8 each, yet if you ordered the package of all four it was only $12,  :dunno: so this way I can wear one for her father (navy) my grandfather (air force) and can even put one on for my stepmother who was (marines) but I’ll have the jump wings in the middle and af one side and navy on the other,

 kinda like that to support all three of them,

Ok, the two patches that the Mrs ordered me came in yesterday, I’m still waiting on the one that’s going to go right in the middle, and with the two new patches to honor both my grandfather and father in law on each side of the jump wings, I kinda had to move things around, so this is what it looks like now,, kinda need something to fill in that top right corner..

Oh geez, :facepalm:
Look I know we all love those legos the kids leave on the floor and you can’t scream or else you wake them so you have to wait till you get out of their room! I’ve done it countless time, but the worst for me was when I left their room and since I backed out of their room and it was only a very small single wide, that we were in the middle of remodeling, I backed out and turned around in pitch black and accidentally kicked the furnace, dead smack on the corner! My pinky and next toe were black within minutes! And as poor as that place was insulated I placed my finger in my mouth and bit down crying, all to not wake the kids! I limped back to our room and the Mrs asks “what’s wrong” I showed her my finger, she’s like “ouch, and that’s why you’re limping”? No then I lifted my foot onto the bed and she then screamed! Lol.
Here this is what I use, a very simple ball cap, looks normal, you’d never know, that is until you hit the button, I added a few extra pics to explain how it works, there great, mine doesn’t look new like this anymore, I’ve covered it with pvc patches unlike before where my old one was pins, another danger! Especially for someone who shaves their head! But ouch on the leg, hope it heals fast!
JR
Looks interesting.  I’ve been interested in the ball cap lights a few times but never tried one.

Legos (or dog chews) and stubbing toe’s can definitely make you want to scream.

This one seemed like a simple trip and fall that I think many of us have experienced in our lives.  Just when I went to stand up, I knew this one was different, which is why I say to watch out for those uneven sidewalks.


The jacket looks pretty cool.  How much space is at the top right corner?  I might have something that might work for it.

Well if your interested in the cap and your really had to have one today you could get one at Lowe’s, it’s where I got mine, I’m sure Amazon and other places have them if you wanted to order them, there called panther vision, they have all sorts of diff types, since I’ve had mine they’ve came out with a rechargeable style, mine only uses two watch batteries, here’s a link for some info, and thanks on the jacket,

Oops I forgot about this part, I’d say it’s about 2-1/2” square? Yet then there’s the whole rest of the jacket, too.. I’m always looking for patches..

New and improved version of the watch I wore for many years while in the Army.



Nothing special or expensive but an excellent beater for the new chapter in my life.

Nice watch, I have the same one, I saw you moved up to the atomic in the other post, hey a watch that you don’t have to keep buying batteries or keep setting works for me! Funny thing is mines sitting in the kitchen window charging up a little all while it’s pretty much the only point in the house where it will definitely pick up the signal, sometimes it will get it while hanging with all the other watches, but not always, nice watch! :tu:

Nice watch.  I'm still using my Gshock from the link to this day.  It was seen some things.  It wont die and has been flawless.

The old 6600 I had in the Army wouldn’t die either. Air Assault School, numerous parachute jumps and the life on an Infantryman couldn’t put it down. Right before I retired the strap broke so like an idiot I just threw it away.

Figured I had plenty other watches but wish I would have kept it at least for sentimental reasons.

Cant go wrong with a G-Shock. I'd love one but they are too big for my fun size wrists. The F-91w on a NATO strap works best for me.

Last two things I got were a pair of Channel Lock 524 and 526 pliers. The 524s stay in my work bag and go on bike rides with me. The 526s are for my home tool bag.
I knew my wife was a keeper when she transitioned from calling it a knife thingy to a multi-tool.

Always thought the 6600/6900 was huge on my wrist but comfortable.

Saw a Mudmaster in person the other day and now think my watch is tiny.

A little change from the norm!
I normally make my own trail mix cause every one that I’ve found always had something I just didn’t like, that and for what little amount you got you paid an arm and leg for! So one day I got this amazing idea while I took the Mrs to the dollar store, just why not make my own? So I looked down the aisles and just grabbed just about everything I liked including a nice container, and walked out only paying like $15! I mixed it all up and took it to work and stashed it in my locker and a few coworkers were interested and tried it and said it was awesome, so about 5 of them kept handing me a few bucks to keep the container filled so I pretty much had my own custom trail mix and everyone was paying for it :whistle: ,, oh well,
Anyway, since today we went to the $1.25 store, I decided to change things up and make something with a little more umph, don’t get me wrong I still have my huge trail mix that I made for about $20 which completely filled one of those Xmas popcorn tins, but I wanted something to switch up instead of just having the same thing, this time with a little extra flavor, the only thing that got screwed up was the pretzels, those were suppose to be the honey mustard onion ones but they were out :rant: ! But that’s what I got today! :drool:
