Remember, this weekend is not “thank you for your service”. It’s to remember those that made the ultimate sacrifice. So, before you make the bbq, open the pool, etc….remember the price paid by those that we memorialize this weekend.
What’s Jim been 3D printing lately? The Star Wars logo sign is really fun. If you flip on its side, it’s scenes from the movies(AT-AT, Vader/Luke Saber fight, Bobs Fett) but if you flip it again it shows as Star Wars. The last photo is a 9mm ammo can. It holds 50 rounds. Made it for a buddy of mine
Me and John before he kicks off SqlCon with his session on “Exploring Optimized Locking in SQL Server 2025”! One of my favorite people! @sqlrus.bsky.social

Look at this setup. It’s so pretty. Did you expect anything less from a retro video game nerd? 😹
It’s been a hard few months. I’ve been wanting to get this for a long time and I finally just said “fuck it” and got it done. If you know, you know.
What have I been up to lately? Well, I got me a 3D printer for Christmas and I’ve been acting like a little kid. Today’s print was inspired by my Grandpap and my Wife’s cousin.
Somebody is enjoying the fireplace on these freaking cold winter evenings!
If I told yinz guys I got this shirt as a bday present from my Mom when I turned 30 and it stopped fitting by 33, would you believe me? It’s baggy on me now. I’ve lost close to 100 lbs over the past 16 months.
Woke up to being another year older and…bald! Took the day off to be with family and get the homestead ready for this winter storm that’s coming!
Tell me the NFL ain’t scripted after watching that PIT vs BLT game. 😹😹
Watching old home videos with family while I lit a fire and did NOT smoke out the house this time!
So, when using the fireplace in your house, apparently there’s a thing called a flu that has to be open? Whoops!
Hello friends!! We are writing out our Christmas cards - little late this year thanks to me forgetting where I stashed the box when we moved. If you would like a Christmas card from me and Mrs. Flops, send me an address and you shall receive. ❤️
Just about have the yard ready! You know you are doing things right when you can hear the outlet inside of the house humming that’s on the same breaker as the outside outlet. 😹
Happy Birthday USMC! Received my celebratory jersey a few weeks ago and today’s the perfect day to break it out for the first time!
Welcome to FlipFlops airlines. I don’t do checked bags. There’s overhead bins don’t work. Get in, sit down, buckle up…or don’t I don’t care, and shaddup. No refreshment service either. If you want refreshments, book another airline! Now, let’s see if we can do a barrel roll!
Boarding planes shouldn’t be this hard people…your boarding pass tells you your seat assignment match tha with the signs above the rows and sit down. 4 different people have taken the wrong seats in this plane so far. 😹

As much as I want to dislike him, this song came on and it kinda hit me in the feels. It’s been a rough few weeks here emotionally. I tell myself it’s this time of year that triggers the emotions but this year it seems amplified. Hug family, friends, even a stranger. m.youtube.com/watch?v=d9_P...
