While lighting the smoker
« on: June 22, 2015, 06:54:42 pm »
One of the girl kamikazied me while I was lighting the smoker.  Right on the eye! 
I've been told that I am now required to post a picture of the damage. 
Here us go. Not much to see I'm afraid.
I'm starting to think that the bees are keeping me...

May be worse in the morning. Next day,  heads shots really get me and the swelling settles in my eyes.  During the school year its iffy whether or not to call in a sub.  Although, it makes charging extra for honey easier. Not above playing the pity card.  But I always end up looking like something from the Star Wars Cantina.  Good luck with the pie :D

Papa, you look VERY much like lazyBkpr.  You guys could be brothers!  Must be the T-shirt.  Ted
Share that which you have an abundance of.  In doing so both the giver and receiver are enriched.

Actually Ted, you are absolutely right about that, they do look alike. Papa usually sports a much bigger and shaggier beard than the one in that photo though.

OK, here is the morning after picture.
Now you can definitely see where she popped me.



Perry, I trimmed the beard last April at the request of my Mrs.  I've kept it neat and tidy since :)
