Figured you might like that. It's from a KC & Southern railroad publication from about 100 years ago describing in detail all the little towns along the line from Neosho to Ft Smith. Really interesting stuff. Evidently the "boulder hole" has been a popular fishin' spot for a really long time.

I know that spot.

We used to catch goldeye occasionally in the Grand river in north Mo. They made pretty good cut bait, even if they weren't a shad or skipjack.

Happy Bday Billethead! Had my 60th couple weeks ago. Still plan to burn out instead of fading away.

Now you know how he paid for them.

3 bills to replace a primer bulb ought to make it about right.

You got hosed. At some point someone replaced the OEM dual cap with 2 singles (as pictured). Nothing wrong with that. Charging you 3 bills to replace it was criminal...

Nah, he was just looking for some nec tar... 😎

Looks like a good place for a derail... Q. What's the difference between a lawyer and a carp? A. One is a scum-sucking bottom-feeder, the other is a fish.

Fish on the bottom usually mark in the bottom signal on a graph (unless your xdcr is directly above them and perfectly vertical). I'd have to draw a picture to show why. Fine tuning your sensitivity so they'll show up is required (usually turning it down from auto settings on soft bottom & up on hard). If you're old enough to have spent much time with a flasher you'll know what I'm talking about.

Silver Lining #2 The WayBack Machine from the Internet Archive has been crawling this forum for several years. I just did a quick glance at their copy of the "What's Cooking" thread, and there are a lot of pictures and avatars there. If you're familiar with the Wayback Machine you can probably find anything you really need to replace there except for anything posted since the last crawl. If you're not, I'll you should be. At the risk of repercussion I'll add that it would be polite and probably appreciated if users would refrain from including pictures in a reply. Pictures take up far more of Phil's server space than text, and it's really easy to backspace them out of a reply. Not to mention it's really annoying to scroll thru a half page of pictures I've already seen just to read the smartaxx one-liner at the bottom.

No need, it'll be self-evident after a few flushes if they melted. And if they didn't, it never got hot enough under the toilet to kill the varmints...

Did the wax rings under the toilets melt?

Here you go.
