Welcome to, If You Want Me To Be Honest, today's episode is God, Guns, and We Might Need a Weather App. That's just because we gotta recap all the horrific things that happened over the holiday weekend. Um, and not just that, you know, we thought about it and we might've took a little break for 4th of July and came back to find out America is doing the absolute most. It could do for sure. America decided to go ahead and allow some floods, fireworks, protests, and now the price of hot, hot dogs or shootings were outrageous. So a bit of a chaotic 4th of July. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, wouldn't be unless, uh, wouldn't be American if it wasn't. Right. You got that right. Okay. So first we wanna start off, it's a little bit of a somber mode or moment, mood, however you wanna say it. Um, because we do wanna go over the horrific tragedy that happened with the Texas flood. Um, a lot of lives were lost, um, especially at the Christian Camp, Girls Camp. Um, I, my opinion on it, um, just to give a little bit of how I felt when I found out about it. Mm-hmm. Obviously devastated because anybody that has a child Yeah. Or mother, father, sister, brother, like you have family. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That is one of the, one of the most horrific ways to, you know, deal with a death in family. Yeah. In that aspect, a kid. It's the worst. Yeah. I mean, not they're all for everyone. Even the adults losing their lives. It's all suck. Yeah. It sucks. All death in general is Yeah. Is horrific. Yeah. Um, but we do wanna send our prayers and our thoughts Absolutely. Out to everyone affected. Because you don't realize just because. Especially when it comes to a summer camp. You know, people from other states send their kids to these camps. Yeah. Yeah. It was a church camp or a Christian ch Yeah. You know, camp. Yeah. Um, so a lot of, a lot of kids come from different states and different places and grandparents and all that that are, you know Yeah. Affected come from other states. So our sympathy and, and our prayers go out to the families and the lives that were affected. Yes. Um. We're not gonna go too much on that because, you know, our, our stick is that we are, try to be a little humorous and comical. Um, there is one view that I did want to say that I think needs to be said. They definitely gotta update their, their system as far as water levels and alarms and those kind of things. Um, you know, you can take it from one aspect to another. You know of it being common sense. Yeah. You know, says upgrade your shit people. Yeah. Like, come on. Yeah. You live on a river, you have camps on a river, on a waterway that's flooded out numerous times. This isn't the first time yeahs, they gotta do something. It, it's tough and, and they showed the water just rising so fast. Mm-hmm. Though too. Mm-hmm. Um, some people just couldn't even get out in time. No, but that's, that's why if they have some, you know, I mean, it's all over the country. It's really, yeah. We've gotta upgrade a lot of our stuff and, and sadly, you know, I don't want to go into a political type rant or whatever or type position. But for me, as a conservative, obviously we want to keep spending and things like that down, but not when it comes to emergency type needs. Yeah. Things that need to be upgraded. Um, need to be paid for one way or another. It's, you know, it's a, it's a priority. Absolutely. Especially when it comes to, you know, one life alone is not Yeah. And then kids, yeah. Forget about it. I've been watching so many of them videos. Oh. I had went down the worm hole. Yeah. Have to get off. I know. And have to get off. I know I texted you last night to tell you about how funny I was gonna be on this podcast today. Yep. And you had to tell me. That you were stuck in that, that zone. Yeah. Yeah. You gotta get yourself out of that because it's really not good. I mean, the more that you read and watch that kind of stuff, it'll really get to you. Yeah. And that's why we, we do this so people can get out for a minute, laugh, have you know. Give their break for sure. Right. Get your mind off of some things that are tragic in your life or in the moment. Yeah. And listen to two idiots discuss what our opinions are, if you want me to be honest. That's true. Right? That's true. There are some things though that, um, I was looking through and, and going back, trying to figure out, like there were reports about these, um, shootings that like. I mean, Chicago. Dude, stop shooting. Everybody. Stop shooting each other. Dude. Stop and enough, bro. No, this is America. Enjoy your life. Oh, I, so I, I watched like 55, dude. I watched an interview of this guy that was like shocked that they had on 4th of July of all days that shooting there would be a mass shooting, but any other day he was fine with. Like he, how could this happen? Well, it happens. Why would it happen today? Like you all have any other day? He kept saying, it's like, what? That's not the standard. Yeah. Yeah. How about we don't, don't do it any day. Yeah. It's crazy. Yeah. It's, it's crazy. What's, what's going on in this world today? Man? There was, uh, I, I looked into a couple of things. There was a shooting in Georgia, the Georgia shooting, um, was the one that I. Watched the interview, um, of another gentleman that just the way that he, they, he was talking about the shooting was almost, I think it was two, two people got shot at, at, uh, Atlanta Park in, in a park at Atlanta. It was two women. Oh, they weren't dead. One lady got shot in the foot and another got shot in like the stomach or the shoulder or something like that. And it was supposed to be some kind of like 4th of July. Celebration. Celebration or whatever. Mm-hmm. And, uh, he was just so nonchalant about it. Like it happens every day. Maybe it does no big deal. Maybe it does in that neighborhood. Well, I'm sure it does in a lot of neighborhoods, but at some point. We gotta stop shooting each other. I mean, back in that day you just fist fought. Stop. I'm, I feel like I saying you're more of a pussy'cause you don't, you wanna shoot somebody then just fist fight'em. Yeah. Yeah. First of all, don't fight at all, but I'm just saying. No, I agree. Back an hour day, it just wasn't. No. People fight over sports and they fight over. Yeah. Do they realize they're taking somebody's family member and Right. Like, do they think about that later? No. That's terrible. No, I think that people that, um, do the shootings or, or especially the mass shootings, see, that's the part for me that, yeah. It, it's, that one's hard, hard, not that any shooting is acceptable, but the mass shooting is like, what are, it's not de targeted. You know, you're not going after somebody, you're going after a group. And that is disgusting. You know, like, like you're gonna kill a lot of people, not just one person. Yeah. Yeah. That's, that's crazy to me. Um, you know, you're gonna shoot me over the fact that, you know, somebody done banged your wife, like, move on, get over it. Dump that bitch. Yeah. She's a lawyer anyway. I was like, yeah, fuck her. Then you ruin your whole life if you get, when you get caught. Yeah. Because eventually you probably will, you ruin your whole life over stupid shit. I agree. I agree. Another thing that I saw was these, uh, boat explosions. Did you see that? I, I didn't, I, I actually tried to find that I couldn't find anything on a boat. Oh my God, dude. So I, what happened apparently was. I believe it was a family in, again, Georgia. Georgia going off on 4th of July. They showing us how it should be done, I guess, or not. Yeah. but yeah, there was a Georgia family that, they were out on a boat. It's a newer boat out on a lake. there was like 11 of them and they were all going tubing. So the gentleman owned this boat, he took the family out. It was like sisters, brothers, cousins, kids, you know, whatever. They all went out on the boat and, evidently they fueled up right out, I guess, at one of these locations that you can fuel, you know? Mm-hmm. Um, pulled out of that area and there was some trash that they saw in the water, so they doing the appropriate thing, spun around to go pick up the trash. As somebody reached in, it sparked and exploded. The whole back end engine caught, caught. Everybody was on fire. Everybody that was in that boat was on fire. Three boys, young kids too, man, got, not that it matters young, old, but. Three brothers got, um, burned pretty good, pretty bad. Wow. one I believe is still in the hospital, so again, our prayers go out. Definitely. They, that young boy was what, what would spark that? If it's in the water, they're not sure. It could have been. So there's a couple different things. I mean, it's a newer boat, so usually newer boats, they're not usually gonna have like. Issues, you know, Maybe a gas leak, but they said they didn't smell any gas. Um, they could have hit something, could have been, uh, fumes. Yeah, in the air. I mean, it's, it's just really so hard to say. That's why they're doing an investigation. But there was two boat explosions. One boat was getting towed back. It was getting towed, and the engines exploded on it. What the heck? That's what it is. Crazy. All on 4th of July. I guess it's one way to, you know, you know, Americans, we like to blow shit up. Just that Trump. Or Iran. Yeah. I mean, you know, when we blow it up, we blow it up big I guess so. So I mean, we're shooting fireworks at each other. You hear about them? Who does that? Yeah. Well, dude, are they dumb? Well, I got a story for y'all when we're done at the end of this kind of tragic stuff, but yeah, I could see it. I got a few dumb kids that would, would and did do some of that crazy shit. Perfect, perfect. Yeah. By the way, I'm sure you noticed that I'm not as bougie today. I am a little raggedy little. She has her hair down. I got my hair down and I got my glasses on, and it's not because I shot a firework in my eye. Okay. I punched her in her eye. Right? She did. And now I have wear glasses today. But anyway. Um, but yeah. Isn't that crazy? They supposedly, people were going on TikTok, taking pictures of them just blowing shit up and getting hurt. Like it was some trend that happens a lot on 4th of July. It sucks. It like. Accidents happen because I But when you're dumb and do it and dumb young and full of cum, okay, well that's what them idiots are. Find another way to maybe, uh, young, get yourself all happy to get fixed like you do the animals. Calm spade and neuter, calm them down. I don't know. They need to figure out something, but they're them boys and there might have been some girls in there. Who knows. Yeah. I mean, who am I to judge? It's probably boys. Sorry guys. Y'all are assholes. We know you explode. Shit. You trying to be cruel. My brother back in the day put firecrackers in frogs. Aw, little frogs. Well, my boys did it too. I shouldn't just blame my brother. Sorry. But yeah, my boys did that too. So, you know, or their famous one. Those, um, snap pops. Pond. So you get hit with one. They little, they shock you. They don't shock. They hurt. That one's rocks that blow up. Yeah. Like a little p Yeah. Yeah. Zach did that through one right at um, Kyle this weekend. Poor Kyle. Kyle. Or actually, I think it was Cam did. Oh, it was Cam. And you know that baseball pitch? Boy, poor Kyle. That hurts. I know Kyle wanted to throw him in the pool so bad, but I had to calm him down. That hurt that bad. Yeah, the little poppies. Yeah. I'm gonna have Cam throw one at you. All right. See? No. Yeah. Yeah. It's, it's pretty bad. Oh, well. All right. I don't know. Zach made egg dance. That was funny. She was trying to run No, no. Yeah. She's like, stop, stop. Yeah, it was funny. But yeah, so those are some things that, I mean, for me. Like grow up. Yeah. Where are your damn parents? The the hell. Hey, they should probably have been beat when they were younger. A little bit more. I think so too. I think that's what's wrong with this generation. Oh, for sure. Parents that are such pussies. I don't know why you're staring at me like that. You're perfect so you don't have to worry about it, do you? I was a perfect mother. She still is. Any who? What else was I gonna talk about? Hmm. Oh yeah. Supposedly there's a big spike in the cost of hot dogs. Now. I didn't notice one, did you? No. I don't know if it's because we live in the great state of Florida. Yeah. And we don't have them issues. Me neither. But I also didn't buy the food for 4th of July. Thank you, Kim and Paul. Thank you. Paul Kim. Yep. They bought it. What mean? Did we have hot dogs? Yeah, we did. We did. We did. But every time I went to Publix or anything I seen it was buy one get one free. Yeah. So what's the problem? Where'd you get$15 hot dogs. Now you going down a hot diggity dog? Yeah. Or somewhere that's a gourmet hot dog. That important that you have to have them bitch for 4th of July. What? Yeah, if you're gonna me, if you're gonna go, bro. Oh my God. I mean, dude, Nathan's hot dogs not to name drop, but. Dude, that's like, you're good. That's a huge expense that, that, I mean, I mean, no, that company makes a lot of money. Yeah. Especially with middle of July though, if you can hear that in the background. And I don't have a chance to get rid of that. I'm sorry. We're in Florida. It's raining. It's a wonderful Must be. Oh yeah. Three o'clock in the afternoon, you can clock it. Lightning. Lightning. Um, but that's what Nathan used to say when he was little, did he? Lightning. Lightning. That's hilarious. Well, it's better than the, you've seen the movie Ted. Yes. Yes. With the teddy bear. Yes. The thunder, thunder sucks. I didn't see it. I, I mean, I seen the movie, but you remember, do you remember that song? Yeah. I don't that they say together. No. Oh, I'm not gonna do it. But maybe I'll, I don't remember. Maybe I can put that little part in there. Yeah. But yeah, thunders, the thunder rolls and the lightning strikes. Okay. I've told you before, don't quit your day job. You're singing. You're dancing. I feel like an an aint that good. I think I could sing pretty good. Do you? Yeah, if I Do you hear yourself? When I'm in the car, I feel like. All right. Well you're very patriotic today. Thank you. Sing us the national anthem or your favorite Toby Keith song. Aw to Keith. I love Toby Keith, this smart. All right. P bro. Yes. I love him. Aw, poor guy. Anyway, I'm not singing'cause you done made me feel bad, so screw you. Okay, well thank you all. You're welcome. You're welcome. Um, but yeah, anyway, um, so what's else is on my list here? So just talking shit is what you want to do. Oh, you know what I was, yeah, there's some shit talking. But you know what I was gonna tell you? I looked up a couple of different things'cause I wanted to know, oh, she homework shit. Well, I do some research for you people and a little education. Appreciate it. Okay, thank you. I'm trying to educate the world. Thank you. Now. Okay, that being said, some of my shit might not be right. Okay? My facts need to be checked. Go ahead and fact check all this shit'cause it could be wrong. But this is what I read in 2018. A pound of hot dogs cost$2 and 92 cents a pound. Okay? You know what they are today supposedly. 5 22. Did I buy hot dogs for 5 22? I thought to myself, I thought they were like four something maybe. What the hell Or three something? Not if they're buying one, getting one free. Yeah, no, that's the only time I buy'em. No, that's what I'm saying. I got half off. Yeah. Still the same price as 2008. So stop complaining about the hot dogs. Stop that. All hot dogs are inflated because they're not, might be a different state or country. It's obviously New York. Well, hey. Oh, that was the other thing. Did you hear how much New York spent four Macy's fireworks? First of all, they did. I did see something 80,000 shells. Yeah, I, I did see, I did see something about that. They did. Um, 80,000. Yeah. That's ridiculous. I mean, they're rich. You know how much it costs. I found out for y'all. I'm gonna let you know a little secret taxpayers. Okay. Welcome to New York City. Y'all wanna know my information. They like it is over here,$6 million.$6 million for those fireworks. Okay, so$6 million. So all the kids are not hungry there? No one's, no they No homeless problem. No homeless? No. No girl. New York City's where it's at. Oh shit. I mean, they getting ready to get socialistic. A mayor. Yeah, it's gonna be amazing. Alright. 56 or$50,000 to clean it up after. Know what you could do with that$50,000 Macy's. Can I get$50,000? Shove it straight up your ass.'cause it's disgusting that you wouldn't donate that to that. Damn God. Yeah. Ain't that crazy.$50,000 to clean that shit. God. Maybe Macy's should clean the streets of New York more often. Yeah, why not donate that? That's what I'm saying. Not that we don't love y'all. Keep listening to New York, but, and supposedly I, you know, I'm not a big sports fan. I'm not a big baseball. Person, except I do. I do love the Marlins. Don't get me wrong,'cause of Scott.

Was it 81? 18 to one? 18 To 180? 180. 81 in baseball would be, that's basketball. Yeah. 18 to one. 18 to one. Supposedly massive blowout. Now, when my kids played and my nephew Brandon didn't play, let me just tell you, Brandon did T-ball when they were little. My boy was picking up daisies in the outfield. Okay. And it was cute and I loved it. But Cameron, you know, he was a he huge baseball and went into college with it. But, um, when they were in little league, yeah, dude, they had the mercy rule. Like that means when you get 10 runs or more than other team. Oh, just let it go. You're done. You ain't coming back. You just let it go. Just, just move on. I mean, I've seen some good comebacks though. I know all the baseball players, all the baseball fanatics are gonna go on and say, oh, you've never seen this game. I know, I know. I've seen some comebacks. I never watched any, so you can ask all you want. I can't tell you. Comment on that shit then go right ahead, any who. Whatever. Danger. Okay. Danger. It's your side. I don't know what you're trying to say. I keep seeing all by that side really? Because I see it over here and that's why you're seeing it.'cause it's reflective in my glasses. Okay. I'm trying. Look, I got two boxes. The Lord trying to tell her herself. Okay. Tupac is like. Oh Lord, mama, whatever, dude. Whatever. Thank you Jesus. Keep the, keep the storm alive.

I love Ozzy to see Ozzy do that. Yeah, because it's sad. Even when the audience was crying, this his last show, he, he did his last show like 20 years ago. Yeah. But it was, yeah, it was his last song and then his last song. Well, like his, he, he just did, is he dying? No, but it was sad. Whatever. Not sad to me. I kind of look like Ozzy Osborne. What you talking about? His hair? Yeah. I don't know what she bitching for. Mm-hmm. I probably talk like him too sometimes. What the hell? You sick? Why? Next subject. He's old. My grandma talks like his ass. I ain't gonna lie. My grandma's 98 years old. He don't have no disease. He's all right. I didn't say no, don't lie. Am I sick?'cause he talk all chip. Chop Charlie, chocolate chip. Yes. Okay. We got listeners in the uk, in England. Oh yeah. UK and in France. I mean, we're good. Yeah, you're right. You're right. And if not, um, if you want me to be honest, I don't fucking care. Sorry. Sorry. Any who? So what else? What else you got to say about it? Fourth did July. We had fun. I hope everybody else had fun. Well, I mean, I did. I had a great time. I got burnt, I got bruises. Yeah, she, she took so full Well, them chairs are dang. Okay. First I'm gonna help you out. I appreciate that. Have my back. Yeah, them tears were dangerous when you're trying to play a game and jump on the ground real fast. Yeah, I mean, so in case Kim's like my sister and Kate, thank God you didn't give a shit you, Zach. I didn't even know you were her. You're so rude, dude. You're supposed to be my partner. My partner in crime, and you wonder why people are wondering if I was worried about your son. My podcast. I was worried about your son. Well. He's a big boy. He can handle this though. I thought you could too, too. I seen you rolling on the ground. So we gonna start this conversation all right the right way. First of all, how was our 4th of July? Obviously mine was today. We were together. Yep. I started off at the beach just so you people know. Had the as crack of dawn five 15. No am Why? Because you're dumb. Rude. No, I think it's because I am such a good kind person, even though y'all can't tell it on here. Um, because I go down there early to save all you assholes on. Don't the beach don't do that. Who gives a shit? I'm not going to no more man. Yeah. I wouldn't go, I wouldn't go to the beach at all if y'all weren't there. That's some bullshit. It's hot. I know, but it was good. It was so beautiful. I got, so I got knocked down twice on that big. What's that big, flat thing? Paul, it was Paul's idea. The land that, uh, raft thing, you lay on the big one. Okay. First of all, that's a paddle board. No, not the paddle board. Oh, no, the big the big blue Floating. Yeah. foam. Yeah. Paul said, let's get this and go out here. So me and Mark did, and then the waves kept pushing it on me, and I fell twice. I would laugh laughing though. I'm sure I, I like that. Scott blew his knee out thinking that he could get on a paddle board. Okay. Now what was he thinking? First of all, why would he even buy that? Okay, I, that's my point. Have you seen this? And if you've ever seen my husband at our age now, if we had still been doing what we were doing back when he surfed. And we were still in that phy physical shape. Well, girl, we paddleboard all day. I don't know what he was thinking. And he had his glasses on. Bitch, I can't even breathe to get up when out of this chair. Okay. And you think this, it's hard to get to the beach from where we were sitting. Dude, I couldn't even, he said to me after we blew it up,'cause it's an inflatable paddleboard after I, I did this the whole time and then he did it. He said, go ahead, get up on there. Let me see if it holds your weight. I wish he would. I wish he, I was like, excuse me? He said, no, I just wanna see if it's inflated enough. Okay. Okay. All right. So I get up there, bitch. It was on land and I could barely get on the thing. Okay. You think And water and waves. Yeah. See the waves part? Okay. Mm-hmm. And who goes in there with this? Prescription glasses on an idiot. This is what I'm saying. I'm married. Yeah. Why would you even do that? It ain't like you're a professional. And even if you were Oh, in his mind, bitch, he's still surfing. Yeah. Well, just so you know, we seen how that went. Mm-hmm. We sure did. And guess what? Jaws is wearing his motherfucking glasses now. Okay. Because they gone. They gone, they go, them turtles are swimming around seeing great. And then he couldn't find a way back to the tents. No, dude, I had to go, what are you talking about? I had to get in the water. I know. Carried the ride. I go beach rescue him again. Oh. Speaking of beach rescue. I know this is all. Oh, the deer? No. Did you see that? Yes. I, I reposted it. All of it. Yes. That is crazy. It ran across the street, down to the beach. Yeah. And you know what? I was going out. Yeah. I think it was just it amazing. It was frantic and didn't know where to go, know what to do, but yeah, they went and rescued. Isn't, isn't that crazy? Yeah. I thought that was cool. But anyway, that's pretty much what I had to do with Scott rescue him. I had to grab him, get the board, hold him down, make sure you know, he was a little wobbly. So that was fun. That day was good. Yeah. Did b Christina made jello shots? I, I didn't have of those. Of those. Oh, I didn't, I didn't have any of them. Ate several, all those. It was pretty good. Yeah. Then we went to Kim and Paul's. Mm-hmm. That was good. I like, I like going back in the pool. Flip cup. I could do the pool all day, minus the beach. Me too. Like if Paul want and Scott want to get together at five 15, go, let's go. No. There. Show up at your house at five 15. Yeah, go ahead. Have breakfast ready for me. Yeah, yeah, I can. Shit in the bathroom. Oh my god, pee. I don't have to worry about it. I'm gonna go to the beach.'cause of you guys. I only go to the beach because of. Two people. We ain't going name sometimes three.'cause it depends on my sister. If she feels like it. I mean, I ain't gonna name drop it Scott and Paul. It feels a tradition. So, and it's, it's 4th of July, you gotta go to the beach. No, I mean you go through a couple hours, this is how you know you're spoiled as shit. The beach is five minutes. I mean, let's be real. How far do you live from the beach? Not very far. 10 minutes max. Okay. People in this. Country. Mm-hmm. Anybody listen in right now that don't live in Florida? Oh shit. Okay. Oh, most of them are so far from a, like we're spoiled. Yeah. They want, they wanna be here. We are bitching about going to the beach on 4th of July. Really? Asshole. Yeah, we, but the honest truth is, is too fucking early. That's way too early. I would not just saying no. Now the other thing I was pissed and disappointed in, okay. About the beach. Um. So they did the renovations to our beach. Yep. Love it. Yes, we needed it. The sand is way better. The, it's a lot better. A lot better. But there she goes. I have bruises on the bottom of my feet. Oh. Because the little fucking shells, but it's like rocks, dude. But it's only a patch. It's only in where the, now this where the water breaks, right? Where the, where the waves break. It's like, but it's a bad. Real bad. And then when it, where are you? Where are they come? No, I literally have little bruises. Oh. Like three or four of them.'cause you know, I made my man rub my feet. That's, I found out he got some bruises. He was like, Ooh, what happened here? Ooh, what happened there? I'm like, I don't know. How would I get bruises on it? I'm thinking, damn, I'm really getting old. I'm getting bruises on the bottom of my feet. Yeah. And said rocks. It's gotta be from the shells and the rocks. I'm like, yeah. They felt like rocks. Oh my. Lord it. I seen a dolphin killed me this year. I'm gonna have to start wearing water shoes. Oh yeah, we saw a pod of them. Oh, you did? Yeah, I just seen one. No, there was a whole family, a school of them, like three or four of them out there at four in the morning when you went five 15, bitch. And um, it was amazing. But no, it was like nine. It did look, it looked nice that early morning. I think it was like, but so is my bed. Yes. I bet you it was as warm at the beach as it was in your bed. Probably. That water was cold this year though. Oh my God. They said it was like 83. It felt cold. Sorry, I got an itch. People, I gotta itch my nose. It felt real cold, but I, it's refreshing when you're dying of heat. Oh, here in Florida and it didn't rain. They said it was going to. Oh my God, why is my nose itch? I'm either gonna, that's common. Kiss a fool or fight you wanna fight, bitch, we fight every day. Alright, you wanna kiss Anyway, so yeah, the 4th of July was fun. We played flip cup. I win pretty much a lot. So, hi. Um, and honestly, just so you know, y'all in flip cup wasn't as good without Kim and I just saying, um, I had fun with the younger folks. You might've did. So I don't know what you mean. Well, y'all act a fool. You all need rules and regulations. That's what you need. You know what we look like? We look crazy because when you're outside watching, we look crazy. But when you're in it, you're doing the same shit. No, no, no. Y'all went way too long. Why? Because normally we take breaks like we get together. Why do we need breaks? You can't do that with them. You and I, Zach and my boys and family are all seasoned vets. The rest of them don't know how to go that long at flip cup. They can't handle, they can't handle the heat. Okay. Well that's the truth. Don't be a pussy. Right. Well, I say the same thing, but, but I don't fill my cup up a lot. I just No, no, no. I know. Just a little bit. Neither do I. I'm trying to go for the long haul. Yeah. You know, it's just for fun. Yeah. Well, yeah. But I still had a great time no matter what. Me too. I think 4th of July was awesome. The, the end of the night dude, y'all left. Everybody pretty much left, I think. I don't know. Exhausted. Paul all stayed up. Thank god Nate left his, um, fireworks because Cameron and Zach, there we go. And Kyle decided we gonna light off some fireworks. I already told you that it, you know, they were throwing them the pop rocks. Or what are they called? Were they in Nathan's snapper Snaps? Yeah. It must have had bought a kit Pops. I think they pops. Pops right. Anyway, whatever. It's pretty much gunpowder with some rocks. Yeah, he bought a, he bought a pack. Okay, so he bought those, they were throwing them at each other? Yeah, yeah, yeah. They, they set off some things that dude, they were like mortars, warns, like, like kapo, and it went straight up in the sky. And then all of a sudden came down and hit Kim's roof. Oh. And you know, she has a tin roof. Dude, I ran, it sounded loud because it, it was like a, a piece of concrete. It was crazy. I was like, that could have, that seriously, could hurt somebody. Yeah. Um, and then, you know, they were being stupid and. Zach would wire up four or five. This is why I'm saying TikTok talkers that go, she too far. Too far. Where were his parents should have beat'em. Like I said, I mean, sorry, I was having too much fun watching it and I did say, Hey, careful you might blow a finger or two off. Don't do that. But you know, what am I gonna do? Who am I? I remember years ago, um, my niece's husband. We were sitting around and he put off a whatever firework. Yeah. And it, it was in the grass, so it tipped over and started shooting at us. Oh yeah, dude. We jumped up and ran. I got a video of that. Oh, that, that's the other thing that happened on 4th of July. What that somebody, I don't know if the guy died. No, I think he did at a 4th of July, or they got into a fist fight or something. Oh. Um, because of somebody being stupid doing fireworks. Mm-hmm. Right next to a family. Oh. And the, I think it, I think he died. I have to, I have to. Y'all fact check me on that one. But yeah. You remember that year that we were down at the beach? Kim remembered it. Um, and that idiot did the fireworks right next to us. The kids were real young back then. Oh, I don't remember. And the damn firework come at us. Oh shit. That's, that's the problem I got is just stupid ass. I mean, first of all, people that have been drinking shouldn't mess with'em, shouldn't be messing with no fireworks. Well, that's almost everyone on 4th of July, well, including us. Well, god dang it, if you want me to be honest. What is your honest opinion about that? About what. People doing fireworks and drinking uhhuh. I mean, it's not the smartest idea in the world. If you're an idiot, you're an idiot. Yeah. Not, you're not a genius, that's for sure. Did you see about the, this is the other thing about, thank you, America. You see the stuff about the protests or they sitting in the chairs? No. Kings Day 2.0, yeah, yeah, yeah. And they're taking beach chairs out and blocking. Bridges and well guess what happens in Florida? You do that. Fuck around and find out. Baboomp. Yeah, that is for sure. That's ridiculous. Come on there. Protests on the side of the street. Come stop in. I mean, this is the thing. How do you sit there and go, oh, we need to be united. We need to be united, but then turn around and tell us to go fuck ourselves. You're, yeah. No. What do you mean? I mean, I say go fuck yourself all the time. So don't actually, that's not the word I'm saying. No, I know. People forgot how to protest. They don't know how to protest anymore. I decided how you should do protests here in Florida. Okay. So technically if you don't want to get ran over mm-hmm. Don't block the street. Right. Duh. Pedestrians have the right of way in Florida. I just keep walking through the pedestrian area and y'all can't go nowhere. I just walk up and down. Up and down, huh? Yeah, that's true. Right? Yeah. I, I just think it's ridiculous. I'm not a protester. I've never, I mean, look to each his own really. I mean, my honest, true feeling about it is you should have the right to protest on the side of the road. Of course. Yeah. But when you start blocking from people from going to work, yeah. Or you know, through the daily, they're not at work. Well, they're paid. Most protests are paid if they're in large groups. So let's be real, they're organized and that goes on both sides. Both sides do it. Yeah. You know, but it's the street blocking for me or blocking people from going into a building. Yeah, yeah. You know? Yeah. Back in the day, they used to have that with the, the churches and stuff like that, with the abortion centers or whatever. Yeah. They would stop and try to block off people from going in. Again, your belief or your feeling is your feeling or Yeah. You know, whatever. But that's where I draw the line. Yeah. When you're stopping people, if you're stopping me from going to church.'cause you know, you have a certain opinion. No, fuck you. I'm gonna mow through your ass. That's how I am, just do it appropriately. That's, you know, you can't, yeah. You're not, once you start getting physical Yeah. And you make people be physical if you're in front of them, like, what are you gonna do? Oh, I'm gonna get physical. That's what I'm saying. You're, you're wanting that, but then you're gonna blame the person for being physical. It's just ridiculous. Grow up. Protest the right way. Yeah. Get the fuck off the road, get your signs out. Calm down. Stand on the side of the road. Scream and hoot and holler. Flick us off as we drive by. Yeah. Do all, all of that. But let me get into Target. I got shit to buy, bro. You know, that's all I'm saying. Not let her get to work, let her get to Target. Oh no, I gotta get to work. I'm working right now. Maybe I'll use that tomorrow as my excuse. I couldn't get into work there were protesters. You can there. Not here. Oh, there might be protestors outside after this, after this podcast. It's true. Who knows? Got that right. Whatever. Whatever. But yeah, I had a great back to our weekend for 4th of July. The 5th of July was nice. The pool hanging out in and all day, the day after a holiday. Yeah. Is always amazing. If we have the day off. Yeah. We played a game. April got hurt. I wish I had a picture I could show y'all. I would show you my ass, but show you my ass. Y'all don't want to see this dude. She was rolling around on the ground. The only person saved her was her sister. I paid no attention. The only person who cared, she's like my sister. I'm like, she's fine. See, this is what I'm saying. Lightning struck again when you said that shit about my sister. Well, she's a nice one. She tried to save you. She realized she's the only nice one. Yeah. We all ran, ran over like we gave a shit after she said it. My future daughter-in-law, she was right in front of you. She, I think she might have pushed me and she was like, screw you bitch. Yeah. No. Anyway, we were playing a game called Ring of Fire. Yeah. Never played. And it's a drinking game and if you ain't never played, it was my first time. You gotta play'cause it's always fun. Yeah. And the problem was I was in a. Very high chair. Yep. Not one for babies. We all were She just clumsy, whatever. But I don't know. See, this is the thing, huh? I was turned like this at the bar. I think you just dove over, bitch. I jumped. Yeah. You didn't get out and go around the arm of the I didn't have time. Why? Because you were in a rush trying to win. That's what you're asking. I'm competitive. That's why I got, dude, I got straight. She did the bruises like. It's bad. And then it hit my other leg. Hit the shin. Did you? I mean, come on dude. And you still lost. I did. How about that hot ass beer I had to chug. Ooh. From my husband, God. Mm-hmm. I tell you, I will take one for the team every time you will. You're dumb. And she says that she's the nice one. Yeah. I wouldn't do the hell. No, I wouldn't do it. No shit. Sure wouldn't. I had to do it just to be nice and to prove a point. Ain't no bitch. And it was a hot beer too. Oh yeah, it was. Does that make it stronger at the top? It makes it foamer for me. You were pretty tipsy after that, after that beer, you think? Uh, well, it might've been after the next couple rounds. Uh, yeah. One I heard on the game. How about, how about the rule I made? I know it gripes Scott's ass to do. God that was so amazing and then Paul kept doing all the rules. Yeah. Okay, so let me just say this game. Let me tell you this game real quick. I'll give you some gist of the rules. The way it works is usually we do it with a deck of cards, but there's actually a card game out there called Ring A Fire that you can pick up. Not that I'm promoting it, but if you wanna be a sponsor, let me know anyway. Um, so what you do is you put the cards around a beer. I'll do it up here. You put the beer in the middle and then you put the cards flared out everybody. One person grabs a card and the card tells you what to do. Mm-hmm. And it will either tell you seven. It goes to heaven. You put your hands up. Yeah. Or it'll say you now are the rule master and you create a re rule until the next rule MasterCard is pulled. Yeah. Or rhyming is not, nine is rhymed. So somebody says something and the next person has to rhyme on down the line. Yeah. The rule card got played. So many times, dude, I couldn't stop laughing from all the different rules. I think Egg loved the one rule in your ass. In my ass. She was talking just to say it a hundred percent. Now that's not, we ain't going to talk about that one. Okay, but Jessica, we going have a talk on this side later. Uhhuh, she liked that rule. Any who? Just saying so the rule. That Cindy decided to make, that's me. Mm-hmm. Was what, uh, what was it? Cindy is, uh, amazing. Was it Cindy? Perfect. Perfect. That your Cindy is perfect. So every time they took a drink, they have to say Cindy is perfect first. And they had to keep saying it until somebody else time. You drink every time and they drink in between drinking. Right? So they'd have to say in Scott was, and if you didn't say it. You had to say it and take a new drink. Yes. So I heard it so many times. It's, I loved it. It was great. What I liked was Scott cringing every time Scott's, Cindy is perfect. This is bullshit. But yeah. Me, I hear it so much on this podcast that I'm so numb to it now. She's used, used to it. Even I say it, I'm like, I know Cindy's perfect. Yeah. It don't affect me one bit, girl Yeah. Anymore. But I, I loved it. No, I had a great time at that game and I, I did rip myself up. Paul made me, yeah, you did. Paul made me a pina colada and then put a shot of rum on top. Float, and I didn't know float and I just went like this. You did that? Yeah. Well, I didn't know. He said, here's a pina colada with some shot. I thought he meant like it was a shot in the pina colada. Right? No, I was wondering why he looked so watery on top, but I didn't want to complain to him that you didn't wanna be like, like, whoa, I just did a shot. Oof. It's fine. Scott always gets that 1 51 floater. Oh. On a pina colada. One time we were, um, went on that a cruise and we were in, uh, I think it was Turks and Caicos where we, this one place that we always go to that we love, and the bar there, as we're walking back to the cruise ship has, it's this little tiny bar hut random, right. And it says two for one pina coladas. Mm. So we're like. As well. Okay. Now mind you, I'm, I'm gonna be honest, I was almost bent over walking back. You're already drunk. Oh, I was shit hammered. Okay. Okay. So he knew better, but whatever. He didn't care. We're on vacation. Yeah. So he's thinking for, he said to me, you want to stop? They're, you know, get, buy one, get one free. And I said, uh, nah, I don't really want it. He is like, all right, well I'm gonna stop. And you know, he'll drink both. Yeah. So we get up there and they give you this little tube full of 1 51 rum and it's just set inside of it, right? Yeah. And so there's two of them. So instead of pouring it in the top, they have it in this tube. Yeah. Well, you know me, I'm an asshole. I grabbed that one tube out the thing. Trying to be cool. Oh. Got your ass. Gotcha. Sure did. We got, I told you I was like this. All righty. By the time I got to the entrance I was like this. That's like when you went to Louisiana and had that hurricane drink. I mean, I think I do it every time. I'm trying to hang with my husband. Trying to be a badass. Sometimes I forget. Got your ass. I know. It gets my ass. Every time. Every time. Girl. But yeah. Anyway, so that, that's the game was fun. Crazy. That liked that you did that floater like that? Yeah, I did a shot. Yeah. Paul set me up to fail. I, no, he like a, he likes to party, I guess, so he likes all his buddies having a good time. I mean, he is got enough rooms there for anybody to pass out if you need. But they are great hosts, Kim and Paul. Oh yeah, yeah. They are great hosts. Yeah, they, they actually, they do put on a great party and everything and they are great hosts. Clean up and put everything out. So much appreciated. Thank you Kim and Palm. Thank you. That's why I'm wearing my shirt to thank you guys today. Mm. And I wore mine. Thank you. Yeah. You can tell. That's for my mama. Dear mama. Yeah.'cause I'm always slamming my poor mama. You are. I didn't really get to spend time with her. Did she show up for 4th of July? Yes. Bitch. Bitch. Wow. Really? Did I talk to her? Um, I don't remember. If you did, you could tell. I had a great 4th of July. I talked to her. She forgot her coffee mug at Kim's. I said to Paul, that's Memaws. Oh, well good thing you pay attention to her ass about Winston all day long playing with us in the pool. He loved it so much and he was out and you see Cooper swimming like a son of a bitch. Aw, he's so cute. And the little cowboy hat. Yeah, I know the hat. Okay. First of all, I've seen those pictures on Instagram last night. Uhhuh, dude, it melted my heart, that boy, and that's so cute, so adorable. I mean, both my grandbaby and my great nephew. Yeah. What the hell? Great. That don't sound right. Isn't that weird? I know. I'm a great aunt. Thank you. Yes, I'm She's great. All right. Bitch. Um, but yeah, I saw those pictures of him. I didn't see him take those pictures. I never saw'em in that outfit all day. I seen, I seen a picture of him in the pool with Yeah. Camon. But when I saw it on Instagram, I was like, oh God. He is fucking cute. Yeah, he is cute and sweet too. Yes, he is so far. Well, because, you know, these boys, they get crazy, get a little wild. Although, I mean. They're gonna be raised different. Not like Mowgli's. Well, Mowgli's are the best kids you could have. Well, now they are. They're the nicest kindness. But you keep fucking with their mama. You going to see that side? Yeah, that's true. As wild as you let your kids be, they turned out to be good kids. They turned out all right. Not, not too shabby. Thank you. I think it was the Lord, not you. Okay. The Lord's on my side too. He's gotta be, I mean, I did a lot of praying, used to tell the boys all the time. God works in mysterious ways. I know. They say Mom says that, that a hundred percent. They know that. Yeah. That's my, that's my saying. So on that note, God does work in mysterious ways and you're welcome. This podcast is pretty much over. Pretty much. Got anything else you wanna tell everybody?
