  1. While the Skyland is taking a vacation at Zigs spa, my latest watch is slowly creeping into becoming "my favorite."

    Here's a few on an aftermarket leather strap. I went with that Tango guy from ebay that some have recommended. Honestly, I find the straps to be on the thin side, and wouldn't buy another one. Its hard to get the deployant to catch the strap, usually it slowly slips loose. I've fiddled with it enough to get it to catch for now.

    (datewheel lines up just fine. I have a stupid nack for taking pictures late, everytime when the date is rolling over.)

    This one loses too much in resizing, so look at a bigger version...

    On bracelet for comparison. I like it on the bracelet better, but having a leather strap is nice, for versatility.

  2. lol I see you have the same pechant for the right words at the right time with the little kids as I do. :black_eye:

    I don't know about particular quotes of mine. I am always told "I say the most random things".

    Right now I have a ficticious word "Shloggin" that can be anything. I usually ask for it at restaurants, or grocers, anywhere really, to get a laugh out of the people im with. Sauce for steak, ice cream ("you mean hagan daaz sir?")

    We got a new fish, which you can imagine what we named him?

    Meet Shloggin-

  3. The same day you posted this, I got your email to send my watch. I mention this because the trip started out pretty interesting.

    So I get to the post office. My wife and I standing there ready to go, as you instructed, like I was about to order from the soup-nazi. I'm next in line. This guy about a foot taller and wider than me gets right in front of me, belligerently. I turn to my wife and say "you see this guy, got right in front of me?" The guy immediately says "YOU GOT A PROBLEM? WHY DONT YOU TELL ME INSTEAD OF YOUR WIFE!" He's full-on psycho already. I say "ok. You just got right in front of me." He gets right in my face. His next step could only be to throw a punch at me. He says "I THOUGHT YOU WERENT READY! WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?!" This guys got a little girl with him, about 6-7 years old. My wife begins to step between the guy and I. She says "your a real good role model for your little girl! You probably beat her too i'm sure. Look at daddy, what a good influence!" The guy then tells me wife, "SHUT UP AND MIND YOUR BUSINESS". Great. Now, he's told my wife to shut up. Beautiful. Its go-time, in the post office. Government buildings and deadly weapons are a mix thats certain to put me behind bars for a long time, and like I said he's got 1' x 1' on me, and obviously completely lost his mind. My options are all bad ones now. It's lose lose, even if I were to win. We are late for a family barbeque. Even if I was to somehow drop this guy with my hands, all sorts of problems would come of it. Theres people and cameras watching, everywhere. However, I cannot allow anyone to speak to my wife like this. "Dont talk to my wife like that. Seriously, you just really said that?" We're eye to eye, everything around me is turned white around the edges besides him. My wife is trying to get inbetween us, im trying to move her out of his way. I hear nothing, no backround noise whatsoever. For a moment that was all that was left. Then, the tension seems to diffuse and the surroundings seem to blend back into the situation. I notice my wife is cursing at him, I move her away and say to my wife and the guy "whats about to happen next isnt worth it for anyone, let it go." I told my wife to calm down, and put her behind me. The guy turned around back to his business and it was all over. A very messy situation, avoided. Which trust me, was my best bet.

    I get to the counter, and the lady is now tripple wrapping my box with usps flat rate envelopes and stamps and customs forms and tape and the thing is just rediculous looking. The Zigmeister, its overtaped. I know you will understand. My handwriting was also a little sloppy. The adrenaline was still pumping at 100% and I couldn't write.
