Listen to some Fear Factory and you'll know my politics.
Play in some combat sport and you may know my passion.
Wood shop day.
Be sure to practice proper dust protection.

Making halfling sized swords this time.

You just died, 6th photo is what killed you.

I knew this holiday would be the end of me.

One month ago the job place, Race Ramps, caught a case of fire and burned down. For the last month I've adjusted to the unemployed life, planned unemployed life. I was leaving the place.

Since then I've been physical.
Shoulder rehab training, armored combat with SCA, and jiujitsu.
What a month.

To the wonderful folks who've donated so far, thank you so so much.

With your kind contribution, we've blown past the initial goal of $1300, reaching $2300, which can go towards some of the immediate needs such as furnace repair & bills.

GoFundMe raised the goal to $3500, which will help w/ debts.
So....after much deliberation and encouragement from loved ones, I've put together a GoFundMe after facing several financial burdens and medical debts...

Any help or sharing would really go a long way...

Thank you so much.

Lap dog chronicles continue. He was not expecting me to use under hooks on him.

I have discovered Unicorn Spit. This is a warning.

Hanks the dog isn't feeling the best.
Still my lap dog.

I haven't been able to find holiday spirit in the past.
But I can make some
And that's often what we need to do, make the spirit that we want to find.

Give that little extra effort, pass on that little bit of cheer, show that minimum of charity or max it out if you have the bandwidth.

So, how do I advance my set-up here?

Leg wraps feel like the right move and hopefully they work well enough with the armor under the pants.

The bruise on my thighs and bicep tell me that maybe adding some protection. But the adventurer in me feels that is nonsense. 🤣

SCA fight #2 at Tournament of Chivalry

My axe vs Sword and Board. I forget the Knights name at this moment

Learned a lot from this fight and video
1- slide my stick more for jab thrusts
2- keep the feel moving when they pressure in

I won this with an axe to face as he took my unarmored leg.

SCA Fight Video 1 from Tournament of Chivalry. (General fighters vs the High skilled one)

Me with the axe.
Kaydian with two sticks.

My buttspike landed but not with intention, you can "push" the blow it has to strike.
Kaydian landed the kill on me on my well armored and beautiful face area.

After TOC on Saturday, Field teardown and winter prep Sunday, and Monday workout and jiujitsu focusing on takedowns and control...

This Bob is tired.

Not complaining, just resting.

Did armored combat with SCA.
After two years my rust wasn't as bad as I expected.
Videos coming soon.

Armor combat this weekend.
Almost last minute preparation
Hopefully everything fits well.

That is a lot of rust.
November 7, 2025 at 3:54 AM
So this is what I look like to my family when I'm doing stuff.

I feel like such a specimen.

Turns out me leaving the job just as the job left us wasn't that big of a deal on my end.
All that corporate seems to be offering the mass staff is one week of pay and keeping the medical covered for next month. Ouch.

The logic? " To help cover the gap before unemployment begins for everyone"

It's been a few days for certain. Work is gone and now I guess I have some spare time.

Some home projects on the list. Hunting season is open and ice season prep can get some attention.

Yup, it's just weird.
October 26, 2025 at 2:40 AM
Update, all of our services are no longer required and corporate appreciates our efforts.

Not a surprise but the email just felt cold.
October 25, 2025 at 11:49 PM
So this happened today at work.

Everyone is safe.

I've been busy and I am tired.
