    Enjoy the hero years. In the teen years (just around the corner for me) we become certified geeks.

    Didn't we grow up learning about the Geek Gods, er uh, I guess those were Greek Gods. Oh well, close enough.

    They may have been, but unless you wanted to spend an eternity pushing boulders uphill, suffering from a burning thirst with water always just out of reach, or simply having your liver picked apart by carnivorous birds, you certainly never said it out loud . By the way, my oldest is eleven, and she already considers me a geek, but oddly enough, she seems to find it endearing.

    @ canoebie--"geek gods"... Still laughing .
    You're gonna need a bigger hammock

    MMMMMM, Me thinks this needs a smaller Mason Line Loop, purely to hold the useful yet extremely intricate camo paracord weave/dongle/loop thing.

    Would look super cool too.

    I like the way you think though. My boy was unimpressed when I stripped his brand new Nerf Maverick to little pieces on the kitchen table (His mother was ready to hang me)

    His expression changed when his silly, annoying old man finished the mods (thanks You Tube) and he now has a trick Nerf gun to terrorise the dog, his sister, his mother.... we'll I'm sure you get the picture.
    I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives.
