I was wondering but I wasn't curious enough to google the difference. They are kinda colorful, aren't hens kinda drab?

But the wife, she got the weird one. Her coworker gave her a freaking coloring book! So right now my loving and beautiful wife of 28 years is sitting here with a coloring book. Seahorses I think.
She got pissed a few minutes ago when I asked her if she wanted a juice box and a nap.


Merry Christmas everybody.


Time for my "juice box", in the form of a Reds Apple Ale. Or 3. Or 6. Or......

Adult coloring books are everywhere this year. They're supposed to help with stress...unless one's spouse is a smart-ass. You're lucky she didn't whap you up the side of the head with a throw pillow for asking her if she wanted a juice box! ;)

Awesome spread there Bailey! I wish my line of employment allowed me to live in an area less populous.

Got rid of the '04 Tahoe yesterday. The electrics decided to lose their mind over the past couple of years. Chevy is extremely proud of the new Tahoe outfitted with options similar to the old one...so we took a different route this time around for our Christmas present for the next several years...

Doesn't drive like a truck but has a similar footprint to the Tahoe. I've been a Chevy guy forever, but this time around it's a 2016 GL450.

Your not helping me out on this any Grey........







.........so you got a coloring book too?








Throw pillow my ass, she grew up with 3 brothers. She can lay out a pretty good chingazo when she gets her hackles up.

My wife asked for an adult coloring book for Christmas this year. She's a fan of it so far. I got a new rifle bag, a few smaller items and got to watch my son make out like a bandit.

Wait...are "adult" coloring books the same as coloring books for grown ups?

If it wasn't gonna be over a month until we moved into the house I'd just keep 'em for that reason. But, I actually have a friend who lives north of Coeur d'Alene that wants them. I wrangled them up tonight and delivering them up there tomorrow. I know they're just chickens but I'm glad to have found them a home. I'm just a softy when it comes to animals.

My wife's has flowers and patterns. She's taking it way too seriously. The dog bumped her while coloring and he got a good cussing for it.

Psh. When I'm stressed, I watch violent movies or go to the range. If I need some futzy stuff to calm me down, I can knit, sew or any number of crafty stuffs. No color books for me.

I did get one for my Mom, and she likes it because of the detailed patterns.

I got a Dillion 650 press and a Magneto chrono from mom and dad. My kids made out like bandits from all the grand parents.

Started a little before Xmas but got it all together by Santa time.

Please, I'm a bit of a dummy when it comes to this stuff. What am I looking at? I get that it's a laptop connected to...something, and a stereo receiver...but what is it for? What does it do? What's the little black box with the bright light?

As always my wife is really good to me for Christmas. I got a Vortex range finder this year and a few other items. The best is watching my 2 year old play with this remote control jeep thing. It's awesome.

I hate to derail, but every year we have my family over for breakfast. My brother and his wife and two kids (3 and 5) are just nightmares. Every time they are over the little boy does something like kick someone's grandparent and he spit my wife's grandmother's face a few months ago when my boy turned 2. I just can't believe my brother allows such disrespect and does nothing about it when told about this stuff.

Then my wife's 14 year old cousin just so rude to everyone and loud at dinner constantly demanding things from his mother and father and interrupting conversation. Pretending to his mother is my favorite because I say something and now I'm the one that needs to calm down. What is the deal with this? Does anyone else have these awesome Christmas issues?

That sucks you have to deal with those types of issues. My kid's survival instincts were far too strong for them to even consider behaving like that. Course, at that stage it's probably the parents that need a beating.

Looks to me like a 2007 Macbook Pro music/video server. Aune T1 DAC. 1979 Yamaha CA=810 integrated amp. I thought everyone knew that...

^^This. We dealt with this with my SIL (22 years old) last year. I politely told her that I will not allow that sort of behavior around my kids in the future. If she doesn't like that, then she should get good at writing letters, because that's as close as she'll get. She clammed up and has just given me dirty looks every time I've seen her since then. If dirty looks is the price to pay, I will gladly pay it for my kids to have better role models in their lives.

Try to think nice thoughts...

• Macbook Pro for the music/video.

• Aune T1 tube DAC (digital audio converter). USB connection from the laptop. Better sound quality then the headphone port.
• Yamaha C-810 integrated amp. 1979 vintage solid state. Warm sound and excellent clarity, even at higher volumes.

Not sure if I will add a phonograph.

Anymore questions?

I spoiled myself but good. MKE Zenith Z-5RS 9mm. It's not HK, but it's not $3k+, either. Picked it up Christmas Eve, Form 1'd it Christmas Morning. This has pretty much been my dream gun since I started liking guns... blame Ding Chavez in Clear & Present Danger. Now I'm on the hunt for a Gemtech MK9K :D

p.s. I was thrilled that Atlantic Firearms got it to me lightning fast so I could submit my E-Form 1, because who knows what 41P shenanigans await us come 01/01/16.
