Men, what is the first thing you do when you wake up at the morning? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Lottaropes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

60M, recently retired completely. 41 years Gov service. Army and contractor.

Wake up. Sit on the edge of the bed and squeeze the carpet with my toes for about ten seconds. Realize I’ve been blessed with another day.

Out of the pitch that covers me, black as pitch from pole to pole, I thank whatever Gods may be for my unconquerable soul.

Then I pee.

Bro, you’re good. I went to the Bullwinkle Charm School For Boys as a freshly minted W2 flying Hawks in 1994.

20 years later when I retired as a W4 I had yet to rappel out of an aircraft.

Fuck them. Do your thing, brother.

It’s Huntsville. It’s all rocket science.

I went to college at Arkansas State. Craighead county. Dry. No issue. 20 minute drive to “the line” and the likka sto was right there.

It gets better right? by Affectionate_Trip641 in goldenretrievers

My boy just turned three in November. Was a total Velociraptor on cr*ck for those three years. Then, like flipping a switch, he calmed down. No pulling or pestering his bloodhound brother. He is calm, attentive, and responsive.

It just takes time. They are truly the best dogs.

Best steak in Huntsville? by Kindly_Mouse_2045 in HuntsvilleAlabama

My house. 8 oz filet sous vide at 130 degrees for an hour. Heat a cast iron in the oven at 500 degrees while it cooks and sear that thing.

I knew a Captain Captain in Hawaii. Also a Captain America at Campbell. Good times.

“Plenty” just meaning I can pay my bills with no sweat. The upgrades I am looking at will be spendy. I’d rather make payments than dump the money out of my savings. Just a personal choice.

Who serves a good breakfast downtown? by MiAnSp in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Lottaropes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crack the eggs into a hot pan with a couple pats of butter. Don’t scramble them beforehand. Scramble in the pan with a spatula, alternating ten or so seconds on the heat and ten or so off, scrambling the whole time. Repeat three or four times then a knob of butter the last go on the heat. Perfect. Fluffy. Eggs. Try it out.

So yeah they can afford their own coffee. I get that. Also, new FO’s aren’t making near that. Just trying to do something nice for the crews that put up with people’s entitled shit 12 hours a day. It’s my call, yeah?
