  1. We're roasting weiners and having Marg's at the fire pit out front. 😊
  2. I caught a blue tailed skink in my driveway on a foam spider today. Got a little carried away with the hookset, he almost landed in Sugarbritches lap. Then I spent 30 minutes trying to get a bluejay to bite. Had 2 follows but couldn't get him to commit. I gave up after she said..."what do you plan to do if you catch it, those things are MEAN?" 😬
  3. Well that's nice of them to wait until after the Tim Mcgraw concert. Honest question, not being sarcastic.... In the history of humanity, has a protest ever changed anything? What would be an example of something that a large number of people protested, that made positive change happen?
  4. I want that as a wall mural.
  5. Has someone become....upset? A pity if so. 😂
  6. I haven't lost any friends, but they continue to call or come by wanting me to fish some derby with them. They think I'm being rediculous and I think they truly expect me to change my mind any day now. But I ain't gonna. I still cheer them on, and congratulate them when they do well. When we debate it they agree wholeheartedly with my point of view..... but they aren't gonna stop participating as long as everyone else is doing it. Whatever. There are followers.... and there are leaders. 🙄
  7. They are all "good guys" until they aren't. I've had a bad day with "good cops" 3 different times. It's the luck of the draw. Y'all know what a smartass I can be, and nothing brings it out of me quicker than a cop with an attitude for what IMO is not a good reason. Things go from bad to worse really quickly when I am forced to be polite and cooperative when I am messed with unjustifiably. Admittedly it has never worked out in my favor....but I just don't have it in me to kiss butt when I shouldn't have to. The best thing to do when a cop is "having a bad day" on you, is to play deaf, dumb, and blind. Keep your freakin' mouth shut.... because he's gonna do what he wants anyway, and you aren't going to reason with him. But that's advice that I can only express in words.....I can't demonstrate it. Ever! 😏
  8. Obama and Hillary are above reproach. That's what you get when you vote in extremely (overly) intelligent legal scholars. To even attempt to question their accountability is a huge waste of time. Their asses are covered. I don't know why anyone would be concerned about Donald's tax returns, other than to just have SOMETHING in your holster to crow about when other arguments loose momentum. If you think he could possibly ever be imprisoned for tax fraud you're kidding yourself.
  9. Instead of racism now we have copism. The immediate reaction to being approached by an "authority" in uniform is not good. There are so many videos out there regarding cops being thugs/creeps/ect. and so many people have had unjustified issues with troopers and cops, that people are immediately freaked out by them. I know my daughter had one force a very odd and uncomfortable "interview" on her, and she won't pull over for them until she has someone on the phone that knows exactly where she is. She won't pull over immediately on the side of the road, she'll make them follow her to a convenience store or someplace where there are plenty of people. Cops don't want to understand this, but they might as well get used to it.
  10. Al, our president is in this game to win....and we are going to win too.. Nobody can sit down at a game table where everyone is cheating their asses off, and win without doing a little cheating themselves. Get over the fact that he isn't playing by the rules. NOBODY is. Do you want to win this game, or not? The man isn't a loser, he doesn't quit until he wins. I don't give a crap how he does it, but I'm supporting the dude because he's a real person that has a real reason to care about this country and its people. He will get another term, and then his son will follow. The Trump family are good people. And they are successful people. They get $#!t done.
  11. Well....I think this needed to be said. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=273957870461345&id=1593518174052711 It kinda seems like karma took a double hit on this ordeal. The "victim" was a thug that deserved it, and the cop was a jackass that deserves what he'll eventually get.
  12. It's comforting to know that I'm not the only person that feels that way.
  13. Yes I'm aware of fly casting distance things, Raejeff and all those guys. I was talking about gear, accuracy, pitching under objects, skipping....that sorta stuff.
  14. That's a cool idea. Do you not have the old side frames and doors?
  15. I don't. I could draw a pic later tonight to give you an idea. I left one of the doors on for a storage area under the console, and for access to the switches/guages/steering helm. It probably wouldn't be cost efficient unless you had an old toolbox in the aluminum scrap pile like I did. 😊
  16. Local Ace hardware, West Marine, or ordered online. I farm out all of my aluminum welding to Outback welding in Sunrise Beach. I've done several center console catfish drifting rigs. The one I really hated to sell was one that I used a treadplate aluminum truckbed toolbox for the console. It turned out really boss looking. Otherwise I just build a console, cover it in vinyl, carpet, or SeaDeck, and add switch panels, guages, stereo, cup holders, ect.
  17. I never understood why casting competitions never became a thing. I'd be all over that!
  18. Well yeah, I mean please just throw them on ice. They aren't even gonna be fit for food if you drag them alongside a canoe on a stringer all day. Did anyone even think this thing through? I think a casting or knot tying contest would have been a way better idea. How about a paddle joust canoe race?
  19. Does anyone even know what they are protesting/rioting about? The douchebag cop and his co-horts were fired and charged with murder right away. Justice is being tended to. So what exactly do the protesters want ?
  20. I bet not. hear that all the time.
  21. If you don't buy it send me the info. I may help the dude out.
  22. I'm thinking they'll be lucky to have 5 teams enter. And 2 of those teams will get skunked. 9 fillets aren't gonna feed many people, they'd better have some backup crappie fillets or something.
