Ride On

Hi Friends,

It’s another lonely evening, in another lonely town...
And i ain’t to young to worry, and i ain’t to old to cry, when a woman gets me down...

Have a listen: sharp ears will dig this version

That’s gotta’ be one of AC⚡️DC’s finest... and it came on just as i was walking up the street and heading home from another day of Asskicking and taking no names. It might have struck a more sentimental chord than usual, given that i had just been in discord with one of our own (SSG peeps) who has had some challenging issues to deal with.

It doesn’t matter who it was, and it doesn’t matter what the issue was. All that matters is that we are a Community that looks out for one another, and we give strength when and where it is needed. It still blows my mind that guys like @raybrockman actually exist — that mofo is a powerhouse or benevolence! And others too: like @summertooth, who sent out beer-swilling mugs to the 5 of us who do our best to execute SSG biz, and, has offered to keep track of all the loot (check out his posts). And then there’s @dfinney, who not only just threw-down THREE globe-spanning ounces for the monster raffle, but is an hilarious mo-fette who usually has some choice offerings in three-word — and that’s not even to mention “hand-delivering” her one-up-my-ass right to my very person — just 3 steps away from the main-branch of VBCE!!! Now that is the way you do it!

Stok, saver888, 510, matthewwarn, ray, welshie, uk, fat-elvis, pbock, tbnfl4sun, methus, goldrooster and everybody else who has contributed to our tag have my utmost respect, and appreciation, for seeing the trees for the forest and participating in our collective Asskickery.

Here’s the list of peeps you really ought’a pay more attention to — Asskickers to the core!

Which brings me back, thankfully, to the thread i began with... and i ask you: Are you making things better for others? Are you supporting, and encouraging, and nurturing, and supporting, and sharing, and offering respite — or are you just in it for your own glory and satisfaction?

Oh Gawd! I can here it, from those absent from the above list. “He’s about to pitch the MR3 again, and drop some Heavy Metal!”

And you, my hesitating friend, are correcto-mundo!

Did you know the MONSTER RAFFLE III is live!!!?

Every Steemian is welcome to play — just send 1 sbd per ticket to @ssg-community and when/if you get drawn (live Nov. 24th, 7PM est on our discord channel) you will be able to “pick your prize” from our Community Chest.

To see what’s in there, just head over to #monsterrafflethree or check out @summertooth’s blog for frequently updated lists o the shiny!

Ya, ya, ya, @thedamus, you talk a lot of shit, but what else you got? I will remind everyone here that i have already committed 3 x 1 Dollar (pre ‘68) Canadian Dollaz

And at LEAST, $20 USD worth of bitcoin loaded on a paper wallet, or “bitcoin bill.” You can print this shit at home!!! 😜😜😜👍

So here’s my deal: in keeping with my current situation with @raybrockman re: our fight against premiums, and given that he has offered up a ten-bar to be raffled off amongst the top 10 tix buyers, i am offering this sweet-ass OPM mint-sealed bar up to a 3-way! The top 3 ticket buyers will be invited, at my expense, to play one round of Rock-Paper-Scissor — high rolla’ take all!

Shit-biscuits!!! I prolly have a good chance at winning this — lofl!!! 😳😜🤣😂😂😂 — save me some postage, and keep me an ounce!

So there it is. Are you on the list? And if not, then why not? ...seriously, why not?

Alright, alright, enough evangelicalizing @thedamus, we get it!

...if you haven’t noticed, i’ve been getting drunker and drunker throughout this post — i’ve been writing it for fucking minutes!

Check out the ASSASSIN!

Check out Charlie!

He’s gonna’ be 6 on Friday!!! We’re picking up Dezi and like 4 girls from his Gr. 1 class in a stretch limo! We’re gonna’ cruise Stanley Park and stop for cupcakes and a photo-shoot and then drop ‘em off! No prezzies, no bs, just a fun-time for the kids 😍😍😍😍

Okay, fuck, i’m gooned! Gotta’ log-out.... hope all a that made some kinda’ sense!

Oh yeah, and special rock n roll heat to my brother out there who’s Kicking Ass and Taking no-names, though he may not know it yet...

I am @thedamus, and i am lit.

Haven’t i already approved this post? ...whatever

Cheers mo-fos & mo-fettes!
