The Lord gave this earth a true blessing. That blessing has grown to be my most cherished friend.

Happy birthday to the best man I have had the privilege to know.



Travis

Anyone we know?

It's your birthday today?

HEY Y'ALL......... 'Flave got FRIENDS!

Who'd a thunk it.

You wound me.




Travis

Correct.





Travis

You've had the same mirror for 37 years?

Sadly, most of them are in Texas. Talk about conundrums.



Travis

HBD to your old DONG.

Are you gonna give yourself some for your bday?

Pfffftt.
His dong hides from him most of the time.



P.S. I just lit a sparkler in celebration of his birthday. Drinking games begin at noon.
GFY .

Dear friend Flave, my 37th birthday was last month..... Just sayin'.......

(no harm no foul here buddy, you are forgiven)

HBD! Even Texans need friends, don't worry about it.

Now that I know when your birthday is I'll send you something next year.

How'nhell did you pick 9-19 for a birthday? Never heard of that before. Pears sent that you weren't born in Florida. Or Oklahoma.

That's it, 37. With all your wisdom I figured you to be right up there with Moses. Haha, have a blessed day.

"The man who is his own audience always gets rave reviews"--Confucious

Just got out of the shower. It was like a war zone in there.



Travis

Sam,

Please don't be so self-centered.



Travis

It's a wonderful time of the year. Mini-'flave's birthday is technically next Tuesday, but I changed it to today as well. Should have quite the party this evening.

Got him a shottygun. Watch out.



Travis

Happy Birthday to your friend!

Ed

Let's keep this about me. Not some Jew that couldn't afford a compass.



Travis

A one man game of drop the soap? The missus will be upset if you didn't squeegee the walls down after the battle..
Happy Bday!

+1



Travis

Happy Birthday Travis! In honor of the day, I'm going to town and by me another Model 12 Winchester I set back yesterday!!

HBD!

Bob

Not my problem.

Gift opening is this evening. I rank the amount of love I have for each child based on what they give me.

If I determine the gift sucks, they're in for a bad year.



Travis

You deserve it.

Go forth and buy.



Travis

You were supposed to be blessed with a .22 can yes?

I can't find my sparkler pic...



Travis

Happy B'day, Travis,����������.but don't be so frizzin' modest.
Chuck

Aw crap! I'm the same age than the 'flave?

I hit 37 11 months, 2 weeks ago.

Gotta do something about that. I guess I'll have my own birthday in two weeks.

HBD Travis. I can't wait to give my kid a shotygun.

Why don't you have a little birthday cake next to your name.

I thought your birthday was April 1�.

Is it gruff's birthday again? Its about damn time, been at least 2 months since the last bgg birthday.

I'm trying to come out of my shell.



Travis

Winchester SX3. Hope they're as good as they say.

Sorry you're so old by the way.



Travis

Happy Birthday BFF!

Hope you like your present.

I like my arrogance to be overt.



Travis

It probably will be by this evening.



Travis

I better.



Travis

I got you a Randall for your birthday, but I didn't realize it was today�or it would be there.

Cheap bastard.



Travis

Still wet behind the ears but HBD anyway.

What did ya buy me?

Happy Birthday to youuuuu you look like a jew....

wait..what?

A big cup o' GFY!



Travis

Don't forget about the VFW the week of Christmas. Also the Wild game on the 23rd.



Travis

Next time you're looking in the mirror, wish him a Happy Birthday for me...

He'll be naked, but will do.



Travis

We were at a hockey game and my friend suddenly turned and 'boarded' me with a remark -
"Can you believe that we are 37 years old ???"

Thirty-some odd years later, '37' ain't so bad.
And Happy Birthday!

Pfffft. I have a hard time believing a person can live to be 67 and still type.



Travis

Happy B-day from Texas!!SALUD!!!

im knot 67 yet buttttt i canstill tipe.

Thats was mean, so Im keeping the knife.

It was a really cheap chinese knock-off anyway...

Googlefoo tells me that VFW is 226.6 miles away. I've driven further to drink but usually there was fishin involved. Is there a lake near the VFW?

I don't know. I just walk to the VFW and stay there until I receive a text that says we're going back to MT.



Travis

I just got this vision of you rising up out of a pile of spent pull tabs muttering "i donsh wannash gosh yet"

Just be at one or the other. Tzone and Northern Dave and gopherrunner are attending as well.

There are a few more I'm sure I'm forgetting.



Travis

Glad to hear you were created through intelligent design rather than just being the result of a freak accident. Make that 'real freaky accident'.

Hell the man has a county and a lake named after him in Texas, they worship the ground he walks on....

Happy Birfday Travis now Go Phu*k yerself!

Plan on it!

My mommy and daddy are going to be here today as well. I'm their favorite.



Travis

Then wish his woodie a happy birthday from all of us also...

especially from Rauncho...

WoW! That's awesome!!! When did you meet Aakash Chopra?

I have figured out that my problem here on the Fire is that I am surrounded by a bunch of Gawddamn kids.

This thread is about me.






Travis

Sweet!

I'll try not to use it up in one session.

No worries.

There's plenty to go around.



Travis

I know what your mamawas doing 37 years and 9 months ago

Wikipedia has this event listed first for your birthday:

335 � Flavius Dalmatius is raised to the rank of Caesar by his uncle, emperor Constantine I.

You couldn't avoid greatness.

Praying for the perfect child.

God listens.



Travis

I'll never understand why people doubt me.


Travis

May all your boners remain capped by cheeseburgers. Happy birthday, if in fact it really is your birthday. If not GFY.

mike r

Yes it may have been something to do with being on knees or was it with TAK ?? LMAO

Bacon cheeseburger with a fried egg. Today only.



Travis

Wouldn't it be ironic to find out on his 37th Bday that TAK was Flave's dad?

Fireball, the turd just landed in the soup! Let the games begin LMAO.

mike r

Happy Birthday!!!!

Jealousy cleverly disguised as doubt. Somebody has to be the real deal.

GFY

I thought he was talking about you too. This is funny!!!

I could handle TAK being dad.

Being forced to live in MO would be more than I could stand.



Travis

HBD&GFYU!

I framed this for the gunroom...

Damn you look old! Rough life w/the wemens...huh! GFY

Damn you look old! Rough life w/the wemens...huh! GFY

Travis;
Happy Birthday to you from this side of the medicine line Travis.

My goodness somehow finding out how old you and Sam are isn't making me feel any younger this morning.

As the thread is about you however and not my increasingly decrepit physical condition..... ...... please allow me to say I hope it's a grand day for you and your family. May you have many, many more Travis.

Dwayne

PS.
I look forward to mini-flave photos with the new shotgun and defunct prairie birds.

Back to the showers...

Thanks 'slave.



Travis

Dwayne man!

Thanks for the kind words. Pics to follow...


Travis

You misspelled amazing.

Dumb ass Texans...



Travis

You're only 37?

In the immortal words of Poobah... You Suck.

Don't be hatin', Mr. Windage.



Travis

Happy BD Travis ya young F***. Hell I still got turds circulating inside that 'er older than you!

Happy Birthday Travis...er...Dave...uh...Ice Man...

You're the funniest [bleep] on this site!!

No doubt.
I'm FM.

Ain't conundrums what you wear on yer......

Please don't encourage him.

Hey, fuuckker.

Happy birthday old man! I won't hit that glorious age until next year!

I'm also the best looking.



Travis

Did you bake me a cake?



Travis

You poor old fugg.



Travis

Whoever that womans is...she way too good lookin for yous. Axe yourself a question...would she really be caught dead w/an old [bleep] like you if she wasn't high? See the smile on her face, it's obvious she's confused. GFY powdr

Women can't not love me.





Travis

We shall drink beer at the VFW.

Funny you should ask... Yes there is. My house happens to be between the VFW and the lakes.

Gallons and gallons.



Travis

That would be a good start anyway.

LMFAO!


Your Birthday Present is here.

Is it April 1st already?

I historic day in history when the most brilliant and wise man was brought into the world. A man so hansom that he is beyond definition by the limits of the written word. We are all humbled by his presence here at the Fire.













Now do I get a gold star on my permeate record?


Happy Birthday.

What is today?

Happy GFY day!

I guess pretend Green Berets that don't spend any time outdoors aren't as useful as we once thought.



Travis

Speakin of which. Does Montanny still only have 3.2 beer?

I got you in the log book.

When I become dictator you will not be put to death.


Travis

Not since I've lived here. Most of what I drink is around 8.0%



Travis

Technically it's every day, but yes.



Travis

I figured you weren't too far away from this infamous VFW that is so great, it's the only reason a guy from bum fugged MT would get on an airplane just to go drink there.

I am shocked, shocked, I say, that some jealous husband has allowed you to make it this long...................

But at any rate, enjoy & be careful.

MM

Wait until you see this place. They serve breakfasts the size of pornstar dongs. They serve beer. They have fish fries and burgers the size of fat woman's nipple.

It's awesome.

And none of the uppity Pollocks go in there either.



Travis

I'm pretty amazed myself actually.

I have chosen a Griswold-esque lifestyle now, so I'll probably live forever.



Travis

I don't like uppity Pollocks either. Hopefully the burgers aren't hairy...

If you drink enough, you won't care.




Travis

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Yes, I see that you are now the next thing to a man of the cloth...........peace be upon you you, my son.

MM

MAN ARE WE SLIPPING! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT TOOK AN ENTIRE PAGE BEFORE SOMONE TOLD DEFLAVE TO GFY! COME ON GUYS! GIT YER HEADS OUTTA YER AZZES!

Classic!

In honor of your birthday, whack day or whatever....

I'm going to see the Bears destroy the Packers on Nov.9.

I will eat two Horsecollars and drink beer.

I am getting wasted, maybe even get some action.

Happy Birthday....

You didn't drop the soap did you?

All the best people are born in september, its a fact or a statistic or some $hit.

I see I don
t yet have this quote thing



I see I don't yet have this quote/computer thing mastered.

mike r

CRAP

mike r

CRAP

mike r

I was thinking about it but I was afraid he would take away my salvation.

If all the Minniesoda Pollacks try to attend, can we sleep it off at T Zone's place?

Absolutely.



Travis

Mini-'flave is fully armed:


My beloved mother and father got us both Cold Steel shovels. Ho-lee-fugg are they amazing.




Travis

Happy GFY day.

All you non believers see all the baby crap?

Travis;
Thanks for the photos.

They are both �ber cool.....

Happy Birthday again my cyber friend in Havre.

Dwayne

They're in denial. Just like all the people that are going to hell.

Hint.



Travis

Dwayne man!

Mama listened, per always...




Travis

Is mini flave sportin a golden gate shirt? Roll him out here with that shotty and we can shoot pigeons off the suspension cables till we get caught.

Travis;
Thanks for the additional photo, but of course you did know it would cause inquiring minds to - well inquire what the CZ box contained?

I've had a smattering of experience with their rimfires and a smidgen with the centerfires. It's all been pretty good experience though I might add.

Anyway Travis, if you are so inclined to divulge the contents I'd be interested in hearing about it.

Dwayne

Uh, who the fugg is that ugly sucker with the guin box. Were's my Travy drinking milk from a box?

Hope you and min had a had a good day.

It's a "Skywalkers on vacation shirt". Darth, the Princess and Luke in front of the bridge. Kinda funny.



Travis

100% of all women would disagree with you.

Proving (once again) all women are stupid.



Travis

Thanks Mac. We did.




Travis

Dwayne man!

Photobucket just followed Rick's lead and went tittts up. But this is what was bought and gifted:

http://cz-usa.com/product/cz-455-american-suppressor-ready-22-lr-16-bbl-5-rd-mag-black-polymer/

I already have the can bought. Gonna order a 25 MOA rail and some trigger modifying parts. If it does what I want it to do, I may be trippin' an Anschitz.

Don't tell Stick! He'll try and cyber-bully me.



Travis

Travis;
Thanks for the details sir, it sounds like a fine project to be sure.

Suppressors are forbidden fruit for mere "citizens" up here across the medicine line, so like many things we can't legally have I'll consider them as worthy of being coveted despite the ramifications that all might entail..

In all seriousness, I can't think of many things firearm related that would be as much fun as a quiet rimfire that would do what it was asked out to say 50yds - maybe 75yds for body shots on pestilence related targets.

As you might say Travis, and correctly so, it would be �BER!

Thanks again and I'm glad to see you had a good day.

Dwayne

I am lovin' the Casa de Flave.

Are you back there waterin' the tomatoes?


Uber day with your folks and the mini Flaves.

You need to work a deal with Rick.

At least a dollar per your post. It will keep this site alive.

You missed your calling. There's still time though!

Any stand up comedy bars in montucky?

Drop your schlong and finish setting the pavers you lazy schit!

It should be a lot of fun. I'll have this rifle and a Ruger Lite that can use the suppressor as well. My main motivation for purchasing is to go into Granolaville and murder rock chucks. They attacked my camp this summer up in the Beartooths and as a result I got zero sleep.

When I awoke they were still lingering about, but I only had six rounds of .44. I did knock the schit out of a porcupine with a rock, but that was the best I could do.

Next summer I'm going back up there and laying waste to all of them.


Travis

didn't realize you were still a whipper snapper.

My tomato venture was a failure. Started out good, but then it all went to schit.

I'm building a fuggin' greenhouse next year.



Travis

Rick can't even keep this POS site working correctly. He sure as hell can't spare a dollar a month.

Standup would be tough for me. I don't like being the center of attention.



Travis

Listen you piss drunk cock... Those are remnants from the previous owners. The work is done. Although I do want to rip them all up and lay concrete.

My dream is to have no lawn or exposed earth whatsoever. All concrete. Every square inch of yard, just concrete.



Travis

It's always good to hear I'll be around a lot longer.




Travis

PS- I'm thinking these Cold Steel shovels are the greatest thing ever made. You should buy one and kill a pig with it.

i'll do that, just got a new knife. was thinking about getting a cold steel katana to see if i could behead a hog with one stroke.

Laughin'... That's fugging awesome.

What is your new knife?



Travis

That's a big, freakin' +1,000,000

(You could just put form boards around your whole property and pour dental concrete or high slump and let it self level....presto!)

got it from Jethro Bodin on here sold it to me, he had ordered it with an 8 inch blade but it came with a 6 inch. so i'm buying it and having a sheath made to carry it concealed and he can get his with the 8 inch blade. came in the mail Thursday i'll post a pic when the devil text me one of it.

Greg Lightfoot. Stainless Damascus

It is one of my goals.

A neighbor near me did it. Not 100% but pretty close. It's fugging awesome.



Travis

Well I'll be damned! Either you really do have a new baby or you and the little lady play a twisted game of ring toss in the bedroom!

Seriously though, cool gifts all around! I need to have my family read this and make them feel like chit for the crappy stuff they buy me.

My rules are simple. I buy people schit they want. They best do the same for me.

Mini-'flave is lovin' it.




Travis

Phoucing awesome!

Just got home... Happy Birthday !!!!

Very cool!

Happy Birthday from Pollack land.

Thanks Pollocks.

Yesterday the town had a parade in my honor. Which was nice.



Here's another example of the family doing well. You'd be amazed how many hours a person can consume throwing one of these things.



And of course some quality time with my 29.



Travis

Let's see what Sunday will hold:





Travis

I'm going to smoke sumptin on the grill, drink beer and watch the Vikings get creamed in N'awlins. I'm lovin this bachelor weekend thing!

Gotta walk the dog this AM. Then it is back to watch some football.

Ribs are done. Just gotta heat 'em up.

GFY.



Travis

lol

Who are da bears playing today?

Never mind, I see they're at the team whose coach has a foot fetish.

Great pics. Pretty obvious that is your dad but why is your 'wife' holding someone else's baby?

Also, why are you throwing knives when you got a new CZ to break in...

Mojo,

It will have to sit for a bit. Need to get a rail and work the trigger. Also need the can. No point in burning up ammo as it sits right now.



Travis

Happy belated B-day...

Your humility stands as an example for all!

Certainly. He'd also crawl over his dead mother to cornhole his syphilitic sister.

Thanks Jorge. I knew you cared.



Travis

My everything stands as an example for all.




Travis

I might step over my dead mother but I would not crawl. That's disrespectful.




Travis
